A quick note before you dive in: Our patterns include multiple files so you can sew the way you like—at home on a printer, at a copyshop (A0), or with a projector.

Quick answers

  • After checkout, you can download your pattern from the confirmation page, from the email we send, or anytime under Account → My Downloads using the same email you purchased with.
  • Your files come in a .zip. It’s easiest to download on a computer, unzip, and you’ll see: Instructions, Letter/A4, A0, and a Projector file.
  • Printing at home? Open the Letter/A4 PDF in Adobe Acrobat Reader and print at 100% (Actual Size), then check the test square.
  • Prefer no paper? Use the Projector file. It includes a calibration layer so you can confirm scale before you cut.
  • Need a big print? Send the A0 file to a local copyshop or an online printer.
  • If you get stuck, email hello@lowlandkids.com and we'll be happy to help!


Downloads & accounts


How do I get my files?
Right after payment you’ll see a download button on the confirmation page. We also email you links in your order confirmation email. And you can log in to our website any time and find everything under View Downloads.

What pattern files are included?
Four PDFs: Instructions, Letter/A4 (home printing), A0 (copyshop), and Projector.

Can I download on my phone or tablet?
Yes! Check out our Printing and Projector tips page for specific guidance.


Projector sewing (quick start)


Do your patterns include projector files?
Yes—our current catalog includes projector-optimized files for nearly all patterns. You’ll see “Projector” listed in each download.

How do I check scale?
Open the Projector file and turn on the calibration layer. Confirm the 1” / 2.5 cm squares measure correctly. If you move your projector or cutting surface, re-check before you cut.

Any setup tips?
Keep the text/markers layer visible. If labels look faint, check your PDF viewer’s accessibility settings and disable “replace document colors.” You can also enable the black background layer for higher contrast.


Print-at-home (Letter/A4)

1. Open the Letter/A4 PDF in Adobe Acrobat Reader.
2. In the print dialog, choose Actual Size (100%) and auto portrait/landscape.
3. Print the page with the test square first; measure to confirm scale.

Troubleshooting:
  • If the whole pattern prints on a single page, you likely opened the wrong file (use Letter/A4, not A0 or Projector).
  • If lines look fuzzy or misaligned, try “Print as image,” make sure your printer driver is up to date, and restart your computer.


Copyshop / A0

Download the A0 file and send it to a copyshop or an online service. Many sewists print a single master copy and trace sizes as needed.

Note that we protect our patterns by locking the pdf files to prevent editing in tools like Adobe Illustrator. In rare circumstances copy shops might use software that invisibly requests edit access and will show errors when attempting to open our files. 


Layers (print only the sizes you need)

All patterns include layers. Open the Layers panel in Acrobat Reader and hide sizes you don’t need. This keeps lines clear and makes grading between sizes easier.


Sizing & skill level

Each product page shows the skill level and links to the size chart. If measurements land between sizes, it’s common to use the width of one size and the length of another.


What machines do I need?

A regular sewing machine is all you need to start. A serger is optional but great for knit fabrics and tidy seams. A coverstitch is helpful for professional hems but not required.


Can I sell what I make?

Yes—items must be sewn by you personally. Mass production or outsourcing isn’t allowed. For manufacturing inquiries, email us.


Need help?

We’re happy to troubleshoot downloads, printing, or projector setup. Email hello@lowlandkids.com and include your order email and a screenshot of your issue if you can.
 

Customers praised the sewing pattern as "easy to sew" and "quick," with many noting daughters loved the finished rashguards. Beginners found it "quite doable," though several mentioned instructions could be clearer, particularly for sleeve construction and one-strap options. Sizing runs slightly small. Versatile design allows reversible and various style options.

Rashguard

I’m pretty beginner (sewing for 2-3 months) and found this quite doable! I took my time and made no mistakes. The step for the sleeve folding was confusing and thankfully there is a video tutorial online from another sewing that I followed along with to figure that out or else I’d still be stuck on that part! Sizing is great-4T fits my 4. 5 yr old who is petite at 40in 32lbs. A little room in the bottom bc she is tiny but no problems when wet! Used raspberry creek fabric and a swim lining fabric to save yardage in case I had to redo and it turned out perfect.

Cute swimsuits

The pattern was very easy to sew. In one day i made 2 swimsuits for my little one. She really loves them. She loves the long sleeves and the fit overall.

It was a quick sew but adjusted it a bit

After watching a YouTube tutorial, sewing went fairly quickly. I would suggest to cut the top of the pants a little narrower so it sits better

Instructions could have been written better. Once you figure it out, it’s a good pattern.

Amazon Projector file, easy suit

Super cute pattern! Easier than I thought it would be! Was kinda confused by the long sleeves but it worked out in the end lol. Hands down my favorite projector files

Instructions MISSING!

It’s a great pattern especially if you already have the 2-piece pattern however the pattern is missing the whole instruction process for the middle of the swimsuit after you add the sleeves or whatever option you chose. It immediately jumps to a photo of some part of the bottom that are sewn but doesn’t tell you anything about what to do before you try to flip your suit out through the opening. It literally goes from sleeve to slipping something right side out to ladder stitch. Like what? Very disappointed that I bought this pattern.

Love it!

I can’t praise this pattern enough! This was my first swimming suit and I’m more than happy with the result. Will definitely be making more of these! My daughter loves her new rashguard and it fits perfectly. No need to use elastic, which is good in my opinion.

Versatile, but simple!

I’ve used this pattern 5 times and each swimsuit (or leotard) has come out different! I love the versatility, but also simplicity. The off the shoulder look is just so good!

No communication

I'll be the first to say that I'm not a mass producer when it comes to sewing. I do a project here and there for my kids. However, I sent an email before I purchased this pattern over a week ago and never heard back but due to the reviews on etsy its beginner friendly, I purchased anyway. Its for sure not beginner friendly. I reached out 3 days ago with questions about the pattern after I purchased it, and again, no response. So I attempted to cut my fabric anyways and it was done incorrectly so now I'm buying more fabric to try again. I understand it was my mistake on cutting the fabric incorrectly but what else am I supposed to when I've reached out more than once with no response.

LOVE LOVE LOVE this pattern!

This is going to be one of my go-to summer swim patterns! It’s absolutely adorable! The only thing I would like to make a suggestion on is maybe adding in in a few extra instructions on how to sew up the arm hole side for the “one strap option.” It took me a bit to figure that out, but other than that everything was very clear and easy to follow. The only other thing I’d like to note is I would say that it runs on the smaller side, because I had to size up one for my daughter. Overall this is a great pattern! Size 5T on my 3.5 year old in the attached photos :slightly_smiling:

I genius!!!!

I love putting my kids in long sleeve swim because kids love being outside and the sun can be harsh. I love the reversible option for 2 looks in one. Quick to sew up!

A nice and adorable sew!

A nice and adorable sew! I feel the bottom part may be a little snug on smaller sizes on account of swim diapers, but it is super easy to grade to the correct size. I made 6-9m size, graded to 9-12m for my 8.5m old (for diaper), who typically wears 6-9m and it was pretty perfect except her thighs. Just a tad tight, but easy fix!

Beautiful Sew

I really enjoyed the reversible Rashguard suit. I did find the instructions difficult to follow in the middle, and utilized a sew along video. This was because I was choosing the one sleeve option and needed help with the armcycle and the opposite sleeve. Once I got it down, though, it sewed up perfect!!
