Olo is a relaxed and easy set that consists of a long sleeve tee and wide leg cozy trousers with high, elasticated waist and no side seams. You can sew the straight-cut T-shirt as either a dainty rolled-hem funnel neck, or a deep V-neck with binding. The blouse hem, sleeves and leg openings can all be finished with a rolled hem or a simple turnup.
Size range Includes sizes XS - XXL (waist sizes 58cm - 115cm).
Fabric suggestions Select a light to medium-weight knit fabric with approx. 40 – 50% stretch. A lighter and slightly drapey fabric is recommended for the rolled hem variation, while the V-neck works better with medium-weight, stable knits. Make sure to use an interfacing that also has at least 30% stretch.
