Potential pattern for inner robe

[MagnaPrime]

Hey guys,

Alright, I know officially the Ai Do is the recommended pattern, but this was a great deal that my mother found. The collar looks the same and the overall pattern would really only require very VERY modest alteration to make it work for the inner robe. Thought I would send out a heads up as this is apparantly a clearance item and I don't know how long it will be available.

Wow that was a short lived pattern.

That pattern will work. You just need to alter the lower part to reach down to your ankles. A very good find.

I am redoing my inner robe. The wife is making it right now. We are using a kimono style. Couldn't find the ao dai locally. Making the first one in regular fabric to see how it looks prior to doing velvet.

I think it will work fine, gives the robe look down low with long sleves. It is D on that pattern, goes to the ankle and has a sash.

thats a good top pattern. On the dio, I had it with slits on both side.
