For men that like a classic, slightly retro shirt with a more modern cut, this shirt pattern is just the thing. The instructions will guide you gently through every step of creating a well-crafted casual shirt: felled seams, and sleeve plackets on the long sleeve version. Subtle detail choices to customize your men's shirt, include a convertible collar (also known as a "camp collar") and midcentury style collar loop detail.
Also learn button and button hole sewing, using the machine.
This shirt can be made in a variety of fabrics, such as crisp shirting, warm flannel for winter, or cool rayon for summer. Check out the pattern info for more details and suggested fabrics.
Skill Level: Intermediate - Must know how to use sewing machine successfully, have cut patterns before, and at least worked one pattern.
Sizes: S / M / L / XL / XXL
