Drafting a T-shirt pattern is a fantastic project for a beginner pattern maker.
It's more complex than the skirt block draft but not as complex as the bodice block draft and makes a brilliant introduction to drafting for knits and jerseys!

This class covers the whole process, from the basics to some amendments you can do to customise your T-shirt.

What you'll learn:

How to use basic pattern making tools
Basic pattern making terminology
How to measure for this draft
How to draft the T-shirt body, sleeve (long & short) and neckband
How to add a back yoke
How to change the neckline

If you don't have all the tools already then that's ok, all you really need is:

A pattern ruler
A tape measure
A pencil & rubber
Some pattern paper

If you want to find any of the tools that I've used in this class you can find them in my shop.
And you can find the pattern shaper (yellow ruler) here.

You can find the class notes which include the step by step instructions and a standard size chart of all the body measurements that you'll need to draft the T-shirt pattern in the class project section.

The T-shirt that you'll draft is a loose, comfortable fit with a high neck, I love mine and wear it all the time!
