Summer Minimalist Linen Top and Shorts Co-Ord Set

This summer co-ord set pairs a minimalist boxy top with matching drawstring shorts for an easy, pulled-together warm weather outfit. The relaxed cut of the top keeps the shape simple and clean, while the drawstring waist on the shorts allows the fit to be adjusted for comfort. Designed for women, the set can be sewn as a coordinating pair or as separate pieces that mix into an existing summer wardrobe.

Linen is a natural match for both pieces, giving the boxy top structure and the shorts a soft drape as they are worn. Linen blends, cotton lawn, chambray and lightweight viscose also suit the relaxed shape. The set works for hot days at home, holiday packing, weekend errands and casual evenings outdoors, and the simple lines make it a good choice for advancing beginners who want a quick summer make.

Sizes run from XS to 5XL (XS, S, M, L, XL, 2XL, 3XL, 4XL, 5XL). The pattern is a PDF for printing at home on US Letter or A4 paper (one file for both), and it also includes an A0 file for printing at a copy shop. Each size is a separate file, so you print only the size you need.
