A Basic.....Black ITY Knit Cap Sleeve Top

I've been in dire need of basics.  Especially a black top.  Since I bought  yards of black ITY knit fabric why not make a much needed top.

I used my TNT cap sleeve top pattern.  I also did the french method for neck binding.  It made a nice thin binding.  I like the simplicity of it!

Top for only $3.60
This is the same fabric as the McCall 6844 Short sleeve cardigan I posted earlier.  This top will be a great addition to my wardrobe since you can't go wrong with a black top.

Maybe something more interesting is in the works for my next sew!

Until next time.................

  1. Making basics isn't the most fun, but it feels a void. Yours looks great. I REALLY need to make a couple black tops.

    1. I'm thinking a cowl neck and maybe some sort of tank too. Can't have too many black tops.

    1. It has been a work in progress. I started with a basic tank pattern and made (me) adjustments. Full bust adjustment, sloping shoulders, placement of bust darts and length. Once I made a few muslins I just traced it onto brown craft paper and hang in the closet. Now whenever I need a basic sloper, I just pull this out a sew a version. Wish I had a pattern # to help but they all had issues so I just picked one and made it fit me. Thanks for stopping by my blog!
