This pattern was great for my first time working with knit fabric. I appreciated the clear instructions and helpful online resources. I’ll definitely be making a few of these shirts!
Pattern is easy to assemble, when top is sewn, it works beautifully. (Sleeve notches could be a more obvious)
I've made several of these for my daughter, and the pattern is great. It goes together easily, the instructions are good and the neck band treatment looks very professional. The T-shirt body comes up small though, so go up a size or two unless you want it very fitted. The sleeve fit is significantly looser than the body fit - on the second version I tapered the 3/4 sleeve quite a bit to make it snug on the forearm.
First time I have used a digital pattern and was pleased with the result. The garment was an easy sew and I have now made 3 tops. I stabilised the shoulders with some stay tape. First time I had done a neckband using this method but it worked well and lies flat. Daughter very pleased. Lovely pattern to use.
Made 5 for my dil in a selection of merino and cotton knits. They were quick to sew, took very little fabric and very satisfying. They are stylish and comfortable and would recommend. On some raised the neckline slightly and added sleeve cuffs. Would definitely recommend this pattern as a stylish maternity top.
