This has fast become my go-to, when it comes to tshirts. I love the raglan sleeves, I love the scooped neckline, I love the sleeve length and I love the hemline. Another pattern that fits almost perfectly out of the packet, which pleases me as well.
I started with this heavy cotton knit, in hindsight, I added width I didn’t need, leaving me with a too wide neckline. A hasty bodge job at the centre front gave me a centre front pleat which wasn’t terrible, but I wasn’t 100% happy with it. This shirt has now gone to charity.
The next incarnation was much more successful. A cheap sale fabric from Spotlight, with cotton/jersey binding. This one I was less than fussy with it, and astonishingly, it went together well; the pattern is level, and matches really well. The shirt fits well, and gets good use.
This fabric is from Tia Knight, bought when the AU$ was much more forgiving, and then well marinated in the stash. This is another success.
I am very happy with the neckline…..
This fabric I bought on a whim, from a destash site. Its an american custom print, wayyyy too expensive, and I only bought enough for the front. But its adorable, and I am quite pleased with the coverstitching on this one.
I have at least 6 more pieces of fabric, all pre washed ready for more tshirts – expect to see more.
