Skiff Bundle

Description

This listing is for a bundled sale of the Skiff Tee and Skiff Dress Expansion.

The Skiff Tee is a fun nod to the seaman’s Breton sweaters of France. The basic shape is a wide bateau neckline and slim fit silhouette with straight or vented hems, but there is more to this tee! Use the color blocked styles to play with stripes, patterns or even sheer knits across the bodice and/or short or long sleeves! The shoulder seam is eliminated on the blocked pieces for a unique yoke style, and there is an optional chest pocket built into the front seam.  A separate patch pocket is offered for the plain tee.

The Skiff Dress is an expansion of the Skiff Tee.  The basic shape is a wide bateau neckline and a-line silhouette with straight vented or curved dolphin hems. The back hem is slightly longer than the front. Use the color blocked styles to play with stripes, patterns or even sheer knits across the bodice and/or short or long sleeves from the tee pattern. This expansion also includes options for a sleeveless version, a horizontal flounce across the color blocked sections of the bodice and sleeve, and an elasticated waistband.

Children’s sizes newborn through 12 years.
