The new York has arrived! We're so excited that the York Pinafore is the second pattern to be updated with the new size range, and it feels wonderful to be able to offer this playful design to more people. The York Pinafore is now available in sizes 0-30!
The York is 20% off until midnight on March 23 to celebrate! No coupon code required.
The updated York Pinafore includes sizes 0-30. The new pattern is graded numerically ( 18, 20, 22, 24, 26...) rather than S, M, L, XL, XXL...this more specific sizing system will help you to choose the most accurate size.
The instructions have also been streamlined! There are now better finished garment measurements, to help really perfect the finished product.
