Β 
A fitted linen top that buttons down the front and finishes in two soft points at the hem, with a split between them. It is the kind of piece that works over trousers in July and under a jacket in October.

Β 
βœ‚οΈ TWO OPTIONS, ONE PATTERN
Β 
Sleeveless (View A): clean armholes cut close to the body, finished with a neat bias facing. Made for warm days and for layering under things.
Β 
Short sleeve (View B): a simple set-in sleeve that covers the upper arm, short enough to stay a summer top. No cuff, no gathering, nothing fussy.
Β 
The two versions are not the same pattern with a sleeve stuck on. The sleeved version has its own armhole, cut lower and wider, so you can lift your arms without the whole top lifting with it. Both armholes are printed on the pieces.
Β 
πŸͺ‘ THE DETAILS
Β 
Round neckline, finished with a facing: nothing shows from the outside
Button front: six ⅝" (15 mm) buttons down the centre
Side bust darts and waist darts front and back: shaped through the bust and waist, skimming the hip
Pointed hem with a centre front split, finished sharp with the facing
Optional self-fabric ties at the sides that wrap to the back and knot
