Ester & Ebbe is a top for boys and girls that you can sew with short or long sleeves. You can also choose to sew flutters on the shoulder seam, and/or a neat chest pocket. 

We made this sewing pattern to celebrate the 1 year anniversary of Threads by Caroline (in May 2018) so this is our gift to you. The pattern is free to download and we hope you'll love it!
