There’s something effortlessly elegant about a turtleneck. It’s timeless, versatile, and perfect for layering, making it a wardrobe essential for any season. Christine Turtleneck—a sewing pattern designed to be as chic as it is comfortable. With a sleek silhouette and long sleeves, Christine comes in a midi-length dress and a hip-length top, allowing you to create a piece that suits your style. Whether you’re aiming for a cozy winter staple or a lightweight transitional piece, this pattern adapts beautifully to your fabric choices.
A Seamless Design—Or Not!
One of the things that makes Christine so special is the freedom to choose between exposed or hidden seams. If you love that raw, deconstructed aesthetic, exposed seams add a modern edge to the design. If you prefer a cleaner, more classic finish, opt for hidden seams for a polished look. The choice is yours, making this pattern incredibly customizable to your personal taste.
Perfect for All Seasons
The Christine pattern is designed to be worn year-round. In cozy sweater knits, it becomes the ultimate cold-weather layering piece, while in lightweight jerseys, it transforms into a breathable, effortless staple for warmer months. Pair the dress version with knee-high boots for a sleek, sophisticated look, or style the top with jeans or a skirt for an everyday ensemble that’s both comfortable and chic.

Choosing the right fabric will determine how Christine looks and feels. Here are some great options to consider:
