The Open Back Smock Top is a fun and simple summer tank with an A-line silhouette, a high front neckline, and a split back with a single button closure. The length is slightly cropped, designed to hit low on the ribcage and show a touch of skin. A quick and satisfying sew, and a great pattern for beginners.

Fabric Recommendations:
The Open Back Smock Top is designed for light to midweight woven fabrics. For a crisp, structured silhouette, choose cotton shirting, lightweight twill, or linen blends. For a softer, more relaxed drape, opt for washed linen, lightweight cotton, or other breathable woven fabrics with movement. When sewing patchwork, use fabrics with similar weights to ensure even gathers and a balanced finish.
