Wardrobe By Me - PDF Sewing Pattern - Muscle Tank

The Wardrobe By Me Muscle Tank sewing pattern is a simple, fitted jersey top designed to become an everyday wardrobe staple. Easy to sew and easy to wear, it works just as well on its own as it does layered under shirts, jackets and knitwear.

The Muscle Tank has a fitted body, high neckline and scooped armscyes, finished with wide binding for a clean look around the neck and armholes. Its straightforward construction makes it a useful project for building confidence with stretch fabrics, and the finished top is the kind of piece you'll find yourself reaching for again and again.

The pattern is designed for jersey with 30–40% horizontal stretch. Try rib jersey, cotton Lycra, bamboo jersey, ITY or viscose jersey to create different versions with varying weights and drape.

Available in US sizes 0–24 and European sizes 30–54, the Muscle Tank is rated Skill Level 1/4, making it a straightforward project for beginners.

This is a digital PDF sewing pattern available in colour in A4, Letter and A0 formats, plus a separate projector file. Size layers allow you to print only the size or sizes you need, while trimless pages make assembling the printed pattern easier.

Printing Your PDF Pattern
Before cutting your fabric, measure the test square on the first pattern page to check that your printer is scaling the pattern correctly. The square should measure 2 × 2cm / 5 × 5cm as specified by the pattern.

For the best results, print the A4 or Letter version using Adobe Acrobat Reader and ensure your printer is set to print at the correct scale rather than fitting the pattern to the page.
