DORTE is a blouse or tunic with a draped silhouette defined by its long, attached shawl – an invitation to wrap, knot, or let it cascade freely. Elegant raglan sleeves flow gracefully with delicate slits at the cuffs for easy movement and subtle detail. Side slits at the hem of the bodice allow for a relaxed, airy fit.
As the shawl folds and shifts, glimpses of the reverse side of the fabric become part of the design, making the choice of fabric essential. Both sides should be equally beautiful, as they will be revealed in the artful drape of the piece.
A versatile garment that invites play, layering, and personal styling, this top moves with you, changing shape with a simple sweep of the shawl.
TAUKO PDF patterns are created by independent designers from all over the world. DORTE is designed by Stefanie Kroth.
Fabric recommendations:
Choose a light to medium-light woven fabric such as poplin, crêpe, satin, or any other lightweight cotton, linen, silk, viscose, or Tencel. The fabric should look good on both sides, since the inside will be visible when the shawl is hanging. As the shawl pulls the neckline to the back, the design can’t be made with heavy fabrics.

Blouse: 140 cm (55") wide fabric: 218 - 339 cm (85.9" - 133.5").
