An elevated tee

Collage Sage top
A quick and easy sewing project and tnt for me. I've made this pattern (Ottobre 2/2020, Sage top) once before as it is shown in the magazine and twice with an adapted neckline.

Line drawing Sage top
The original has a plain neckline that is just turned back and topstitched. When I made this in a streped version I drafted a line 5 cm (2 inch) wide from the edge of the neckline in and used a different direction for the stripes.
Striped version Sage top
This photo is from a top I made about 3 years ago and is still in rotation in spring/summer. Yesterday I took this pattern out and made it again in the green version of the collage in the first photo. 
An extra detail in this plain version is the thread, that changes in colour. Originally I used it for an accent when topstitching a pair of gym leggings and thought it suited the green fabric perfectly.
