Buy the Lorna Pinafore sewing pattern from Sew Over It. Lorna is the stylish pinafore you've been waiting for – perfect to wear over all your tops, blouses and shirts!
The straight skirt is midi length with a split at the back and slanted pockets. Choose between curved or straight pocket openings to match the two bodice styles. Version 1 is a classic bodice with a gently curved neckline. Version 2 is a contemporary notched bodice that looks especially great worn over a simple knit top to show off the sharp lines.
Shaping is created by waist darts on the skirt and front bodice. The straps cross at the back in classic pinafore style and are secured to the back bodice with buttons. Lorna is fully lined to ensure it doesn't ride up when worn over tights and to give you the freedom to use many different types of woven fabrics.
