I've repositioned the straps a little so hopefully it won't look so baggy at the back, but yes, tight-fitting things aren't so good for hot weather so I'll just pretend it was deliberate!marisahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14715341254331190992noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3369122943288791173.post-65246588077746939132018-01-28T10:34:15.747+11:002018-01-28T10:34:15.747+11:00Thanks Masha.

As for the singlet, I ignore the back strap placement and just figure that out after trying the almost-finished singlet on R. I also have some leeway with the front placement because I gather the front section and hold it up on her before finalising the width of the front. marisahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14715341254331190992noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3369122943288791173.post-60198671486378355802018-01-26T22:03:36.199+11:002018-01-26T22:03:36.199+11:00Ah yes, perfect outfit for the hot weather!

This looks like the perfect outfit for a hot hot day. Even the too-big tank top looks breezy and cool in a way that a tight fitting one wouldn't.

I tried that singlet pattern when you first posted about it a couple years ago. The straps were too wide set for my daughter (an easy fix that I never got around to making), but I'd like to revisit the pattern as I know my girls would love it.Mashahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05364861545043732582noreply@blogger.com
