Sewing pattern description
Racer Vest sewing pattern from The Modern Sewing Co is fitted top pattern that is designed to feel like a second skin. It features a high yet comfortable neckline and low armholes to prevent tightness under the armpits.
We recommend paying close attention to the bust measurement when selecting your size and adjusting the body length as needed.
To make Racer vest sewing pattern chose stretchy fabrics such as cotton jersey, tencel jersey, bamboo jersey and also 2×1 rib knit fabrics. This style works very well with a contrast colour for the armhole and neck binding so you might want to opt for two different colours.
The Modern Sewing Co lay out plans are always done on a single layer of fabric to reduce wastage.
