{"product_id":"folkwear-280-resort-kaftan","title":"Folkwear 280 Resort Kaftan","description":"\n\u003cp\u003eBuy the 280 Resort Kaftan sewing pattern from Folkwear. In the late 1960s and early 1970s the kaftan entered mainstream fashion, worn by icons such as Diana Vreeland and Elizabeth Taylor. This pattern is for a typical early 1970s kaftan with a V-neck and empire waist. The drape of this floor-length pullover dress makes it comfortable and graceful. It has short sleeves, and optional inside ties for shaping. The bodice and panels around the dress allow for mixing fabric prints. Make it in a soft cotton for a perfect poolside or beach cover-up. Or make it from a flowing silk and dress it up for an elegant evening.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eThis sewing pattern is available to buy in the following formats:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e– PDF\u003c\/strong\u003e (available to download immediately after purchase). \u003cstrong\u003eWhat is a \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/nam11.safelinks.protection.outlook.com\/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fthefoldline.com%2Fhow-to-buy-sewing-patterns%2F\u0026amp;data=02%7C01%7C%7C2055db73b3ff43fa6a0c08d812112ec9%7C84df9e7fe9f640afb435aaaaaaaaaaaa%7C1%7C0%7C637279212288807611\u0026amp;sdata=jGOEMr6nT4ZZme5CCL3wpMxImes8GGoiMxBHviYtfeQ%3D\u0026amp;reserved=0\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePDF\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e– PDF pattern + Printed A0 copy shop \u003c\/strong\u003e(We print out the A0 pattern sheets, but you’ll need to download the digital instructions, as we don’t print these.
