The darling Kate from See Kate Sew asked me to try out her new Penelope Peplum pattern and I couldn’t have been more excited! It looked like a darling pattern to try! I’m quickly falling in love with it!

The pattern is to be used with knit fabrics and it is super versatile. It’s great for both beginners and experienced sewers. For beginners, it’s a great intro pattern to try out sewing knits with. For those more experienced, it’s a great pattern to experiment with! For mine, I added contrasting sleeves and a neck band. There is also an add on pattern that allows you to make this into two different types of dresses. One of the types is a circle skirt. I love me a circle skirt! Image may be NSFW.

My verdict: go get it! It’s a great pattern. Super versatile. Also, Kate’s patterns are always easy to understand. I find myself scratching my head at sewing instructions at least once a project, but not once did I with the Penelope Peplum. In the instructions, it suggests to use elastic thread for the waistband. Do it. I didn’t for this top and totally regret it. Elastic waistbands for me from here on out! If you haven’t already, you need to go make Penelope Peplum for yourself, or your daughter! I mean, who couldn’t use more peplums in their closet?
