Description
The Cuff Top is a brilliantly simple everyday style with a straight, relaxed fit and cap sleeves finished with wide elastic cuffs. Easy to sew and easy to wear, it has that lovely combination of clean lines and clever details that makes it one of those patterns you’ll want to make again and again.
