    Were the instructions easy to follow?
    Yes
    If not, why?
    Except for #12, mainly the part about sewing into a tunnel. Which was difficult to understand and near impossible to do on the long sleeve version.
    What did you particularly like or dislike about the pattern?
    I don't have children with skin sensitivity or sensory issues so I made these mainly for the deconstructed look. Which by the end of sewing the first shirt, the one with the striped sleeves, I thought it just looked messy, but I'm not the most meticulous of seamstresses.

    I ended up sewing the sleeves and collar to the shirt pieces with the seams on the outside to get the look I wanted without having to do the convoluted sewing required to keep the inside free of seams.

    I really like the shape of the sleeves with the thick collar.
    Fabric used
    Cotton Interlock and printed jersey
    Pattern alterations or any design changes you made or would recommend
    If you don't need to sew this shirt with no interior seams I suggest sewing up the sides in the traditional manner with the seams inside.
    Would you sew this pattern again?
    Yes
    Would you recommend this pattern to others?
    Yes
    Any additional comments
    It has a really nice modern fit and the length is great.
