Sew the shoulders and tops of the sleeves together

Place your panels right side facing down. We’ll sew on the wrong side, using the tails that we left earlier. Sew 61( 66, 71, 76, 76, 81 ) dc of the front and back panel together at the shoulder seam and the top of the sleeve. Use which ever method you prefer to sew.

Sew the side seams and the bottom sleeves together

Fold your top in half at the shoulder seam right side facing each other, we’ll sew on the wrong side. Cut a new strand of yarn 60 -70 inches long, enough to sew the side and the sleeve. Start sewing from the bottom up to the side seam until you reach the armpit and continue sewing the sleeve side seam until you reach the end of the sleeve, cut the yarn and weave the end.
