Lincoln Top
$12.50
All Love Notions Sewing Patterns are digital downloads, you may print them at home or send to a copy shop. A physical pattern will not be mailed to you.
The Lincoln Top is a relaxed, boxy fit top with interesting side seams featuring workable (or not!) buttons. Two necklines are included- boatneck and scoop, both with a clean finish binding. Three sleeve options are also included- long, 3/4 and sleeveless for a more muscle sleeve or vest look.
This top is so versatile. It can be dressed up or down depending on the options and fabric selection. Pair this top with some wide leg, high waisted pants for a really fun, on-trend look. The sleeveless view would be perfect as a workout topper. The side seam buttons are perfect for nursing moms. Leave all, none, or some of the buttons undone for a different look!

This is a wonderful pattern to make, easy to sew, instructions are clear. I made mine out of a super light weight sweater knit. That needed careful cutting and sewing. Looks great on. Love it. I’ll be making more of this one.

I made my first Lincoln top out of cotton lycra and I am in love with the fit! The instructions are always excellent and I can’t wait to make 2 more!

I love a cute top pattern that looks complicated to sew-but really isn’t! The slanted side button plackets add flare and the clear instructions are easy to follow.

I really enjoyed making this pattern. The patterns attention to detail shows in the finished garment. It was an easy sew. I made mine last Lincoln from printed french terry. My favourite parts were the finished look, comfort of the neckline, and you don’t have to sew all the buttonholes. Lazy hack. Just sew along the seam line and add the buttons. The look is still great.

This is a wonderful top, the side seam details are on point and a fun way to show off cool buttons! I’ve gotten so many compliments when I’ve worn mine! It’s a staple in my closet!

This is such a comfy top to sew up! I used a mid weight cable knit fabric and it is so soft and warm. The next one I make I will size down one size, as I felt it was to large for me. Planning on making another this winter!

The Lincoln is one of my favorite LN patterns because it is different from most of the sweater patterns out there. The buttons add a nice detail and the silhouette makes it easy to wear with a variety of bottoms so I can wear for work or more casual days.
