Sized for men and women to 6 ft. tall.
The Japanese kimono traditionally varies in a wide degree of formality. Our sewing pattern is for a yukata, or informal, unlined kimono for men and women of all sizes, and is usually made from cotton.
All traditional kimono are cut and constructed in the same way, with variations in length and in the style and width of the sleeves. Front and back are cut together, with no seams at the shoulder. Narrow panels create an overlap at the front opening, and a triple folded and reinforced neckband extends below the waist. This pattern offers a choice among three sleeve styles - a casual kukata sleeve for women and more formal widths for both men and women.
