These popover-style pajamas look a lot like the classic button-down version, but the buttons stop halfway down so the top stays closed without the uncomfortable buttons. The top features a convertible camp collar, two front pockets, back yoke with inverted box pleat, side vents, and cup sizes. Choose long sleeves (View A) or short sleeves (View B), both with a foldable cuff. The bottoms have front pockets, an elastic waist, and can be sewn either as trousers (View A) or shorts (View B), both with cuffed hems.

      Love this pattern

    Great pattern, works up quickly and very comfortable to sleep in. I made the long sleeve and pant version for the winter. I’m on the hunt for some flannel and cotton sateen for a few more pairs.

    This a great pattern which comes together really well. It’s great value with too with the shorts/sleeve options. There is so much design detail, it’s a shame they are “just” pyjamas. I made 2 sets of long sleeve & bottoms with contrasting cuffs which I did1/2 the width as I am petite (short arms & legs!). I am thinking of hacking the shirt into a dress for next summmer ..
