Misses XS-2XL

The heroic working women of World War II inspired this factory wardrobe of camp shirt, pleated slacks, and overalls with sweetheart bib. Rosie the Riveter was the fictional character pictured in posters to recruit women into the work force during World War II in the late 1940's.  Women started working in large numbers building airplanes, slacks or overalls, and "utility clothes" became the uniform of Rosie and her colleagues.  Folkwear pays tribute to the accomplishments of the heroic women with this hard-working wardrobe of Shirt, Overalls, and Slacks to sew. This sewing pattern includes historical information and instructions for the knitted sweater and a crocheted snood to keep hair in place.

The Shirt is styled from men's sport shirts and is know today as a "camp" shirt.  It is a timeless shirt made in crisp white cotton, and lots of fun made in extra-large in bright tropical prints or patterns. 

The pleated Slacks have side pockets and a back zipper.  Straight legs fall smoothly from the hips for a clean look.  Add the sweetheart-shaped bodice for Overalls with straps that cross in the back.

The charming Sweater is knit in two colors in alternating garter and stockinette stitches. It has set-in sleeves and a round neck; and to keep your hair out of the machinery, a simple Snood to crochet completes the package.

This pattern is available as a Paper pattern and PDF pattern.  Choose the pattern format you want at the top.  The paper pattern is printed on brown lightweight tissue and will be mailed to you. The PDF pattern is available to download after checkout. The PDF pattern has instructions, and files for copy shop (36” and A0), print at home (A4 and 8.5”x11”), and a projector file. These files are all layered by size. This pattern also includes instructions for the knitted sweater and crocheted snood.

Suggested fabrics: For the Shirt, choose medium-weight cotton, rayon, silk, or blends. For Slacks and Overalls, choose medium to heavyweight cotton, wool, blends, corduroy, denim, velvet, or velveteen.

LEARN MORE:

  • This pattern has lots of ease, especially in the shirt, which was useful to working women who needed to do lots of moving around.  Just keep that in mind when determining your size (a muslin may be helpful too).  You may want to make the shirt a size or two smaller than you normally would.
  • Pattern Correction: Adjust buttonholes on Waistband K to be in the correct position for your size (they are printed in the wrong location for all sizes on the paper pattern).
  • To make these overalls into a dress, we have a tutorial on our blog you can follow.

Stretches out fast
Size: 36G, Color: Beige
When I first tried it on, I did love it. I ordered a 36G. But I immediately noticed that I couldn’t make the straps any tighter and within one day it was way too loose. It just wasn’t giving that well made feel overall.

Surprisingly Spacious Yet Featherlight
Color: Green
This lightweight nylon backpack quickly became my go-to for everyday errands and quick trips. It feels almost weightless on my shoulders, yet it has plenty of room for my laptop, water bottle, and even a sweater without looking bulky. The fabric wipes clean easily (a lifesaver when I set it down at the park bench), and the zippers glide smoothly without catching. I’ve carried it around all day and it’s comfortable, stylish, and practical without trying too hard.

Gift for my wife. I win!
Color: Beige
A gift for my wife. Love how sleek this looks. Also like that it has multiple pockets. It is the perfect personal item when traveling. Super functional. Great value for what I paid for it. Love that it keeps all stored items secure while still being accessible. It also had padded straps and a carry on strap.
