Pattern Description

t-shirt with a boatneck

Which view and size did you make?

size 98

Did it look like the photo/drawing on the pattern envelope once you were done sewing with it?

Yes

If not, why?

The neck did not look as trim as on the picture even though I used material that fit their specs.

Were the instructions easy to follow?

Yes

If not, why?

-

What did you particularly like or dislike about the pattern?

I did not like how the neck was constructed. The pattern tells to sew front neck binding on, then sew back binding onto the front neck binding and then sew on the back piece. I did not like the way the seam formed on the inside (outside is fine).

Fabric used

cotton/lycra jersey

Pattern alterations or any design changes you made or would recommend

I think the sleeves were a tad long compared to the body. I found it out after it was hemmed so I left it as it was.

Would you sew this pattern again?

No

Would you recommend this pattern to others?

Yes

Any additional comments

I like the large neck hole, it is easy to pull on.
