"Cortina Top"

A week or two ago, the free pattern for Pixie Faire's Freebie Friday was the Liberty Jane Cortina Top.  I downloaded the pattern, and tried it!

For my shirt, I used white and pink interlock knit.  I made the sleeves and the neck band white, with the body of the top pink.  Next time I use this pattern I will use lighter weight knit, as the neck band got a bit bulky.

I had seen versions of the Cortina top on Pinterest that didn't have the ruffles on the sleeves.  I decided to leave out the ruffles as well.

I like the scoop neck and raglan sleeves.
