Turtle neck t-shirt



As well as making my first turtle-neck collar, I used this shirt to try to improve the line of my armscythe/sleeve seams. I made an initial adjustment to the pattern, with the plan to refine the seam after trying it on. I did end up with a line that is ok, but did not enjoy the process of making the adjustments. It was very difficult to sew the sleeves smoothly after all the fiddling, so I will not try that approach again.











I ended up with a little bubbling at the back under the collar. The back was smooth until I added the collar.

This shirt will be fine for around the house, which is what is was originally intended for. I want to make another version, which I hope will be good enough to wear out and about.
