Sylvie is a versatile work to weekend semi-fitted top with some lovely features. With her unique yoke style lines, Sylvie is a creative playground for combining different colours and textures, as well as a great opportunity for some scrapbusting! The front yoke has a gentle ‘V’ shape, while the back is curved.
Explore elegant, drapey design features with the cowl neck and flutter sleeve options. Or go for a sportier Sylvie with the sleeveless view and the versatile round neckline. Colourblock the yoke for a look that is completely your own!
For the Sylvie you'll want to look for light to medium knit fabrics with at least 15% horizontal stretch and good drape. Fabrics like cotton jersey, viscose/rayon jersey, merino jersey, and silk jersey are all great options.
The Sylvie top is thoroughly designed, with separate armscyes for the sleeved and sleeveless views, for an accurate fit. And to make your sewing life easier, the intstructions also feature separate construction methods for each sleeve view.
Whether you opt for the classic banded round neck or stitch up the satisfying cowl neck, our expert intructions will guide you through. Sylvie is a great pattern to elevate your knit sewing!

Marja utitlized her scrap stash to make this lovely colourblocked version. We love this colour combo!
We love the knit crepe Diana used for her Sylvie. The texture of the fabric gave some sweet volume to the sleeves. So crisp!
It wouldn’t be a Forget-me-not celebration without showcasing the amazing makers who brought our designs to life. Today, we’ll share more about who really made it all possible - you!
Fancy a stroll down memory lane? Forget-me-not is saying farewell (at least, for now), but before we go, it’s time to celebrate where we’ve been!
Forget-me-not Patterns launched July 3, 2019 with the Clementine Knit Dress pattern. It was clear from the beginning that the sewing community was eager for distinctly detailed patterns with lots of options for styling and fit. We set out to design wearable wardrobe staples with extra special details to create pieces that were both elevated and easy to wear.
Dear Sewists,
With a grateful, yet heavy heart, Forget-me-not Patterns is saying farewell. At least for now. Design and patternmaking mean absolutely everything to me, and this decision hasn’t been an easy one.
