Made for Mermaids Sewing Patterns are digital downloads. You will print OR project them at home, OR send them to a copy shop to print. This is not a physical garment or pattern and nothing will be mailed to you. The Youth Palmer pattern is the ultimate pajama set for kids, available in sizes 1/2 to 14. The top comes in two versatile styles: a semi-fitted crop or a classic longer length. Choose from a banded tank or cozy long sleeves, with finishing options including a neckband or playful picot elastic. The bottoms are comfortable with high or mid-rise options and are secured with 1” elastic at the waist. All hems—on the top, sleeves, and shorts—feature a fun lettuce-edge finish for a charming touch. Add a ribbon rose or bow for a sweet finishing detail. Quick to sew and effortlessly stylish, the Palmer set is perfect for lounging or drifting off to dreamland in comfort and style!

Suggested Fabrics: •Youth Palmer is drafted for light to medium weight knits with at least 40% stretch horizontally. •Ribbed knits, pointelle, thermal, high quality modal or bamboo lycra, cotton spandex, etc. •Something with a softer drape and more vertical stretch, like a very light rayon spandex and some waffle knits tend to ‘grow’ with wear and feel looser/longer than the intended fit. •A thicker fabric like a custom cotton lycra will fit tighter.
