KIDE blouse – gift pattern for our subscribers

I’m so happy to share something special with you today: a little celebration of our community and a thank you for our beloved susbscribers for being part of it. We’re launching a brand-new pattern, and it is exclusively for TAUKO Magazine subscribers. The KIDE blouse is a gift that cannot be bought anywhere; it lives only inside the circle of our subscribers.

This design is something I’ve been longing for, a piece I kept wishing I had, simple, soft and effortless. KIDE is wonderfully quick to sew: the basic version can be finished in about an hour if you’re experienced. It has gently dropped shoulders, a slightly nipped-in waist and a curved hem that gives it a relaxed yet defined shape. It’s drafted for knits, but its relaxed silhouette means you can play with wovens too.

My own blouse is made from Organic Velvety (100% organic cotton, 255 gsm) by MeterMeter, with facings in Interlock Cotton Knit (95% organic cotton, 5% elastane, 270 gsm) and H609 knit interfacing for support. MeterMeter kindly sponsored these beautiful fabrics.

 

And here are the lovely KIDE blouses sewn by Katrien, Lora, Riikka, Amrei and Stephanie, who joined me to create a wave of inspiration for this launch. 

I’ve made a short video tutorial to show just how easy it is to sew your own KIDE blouse — take a look and try it yourself!
