Cashmerette Concord T-shirt

January 21, 2018

I finally sewed the Cashmerette Concord I cut out months ago!

I used the same size as the two other Casmerette patterns I’ve made (14 C/D, graded to what would be about a 10 at the waist), with no other modifications. I chose the mid-length, v-neck and 3/4 sleeve options, and used a rayon knit. I finished with a twin needle hem.

As you can see, the neckline is super wide on me, and the v-neck is a bit low for my tastes. My bra straps pretty much always show. After making it, I googled and see that the wide neck is a common issue for a lot of people.

Otherwise, this t-shirt fits great on the shoulders and through the body, and I like all the options, so I’ll definitely use it again and just modify the neckline. Between this and the more relaxed/swingy plantain, I think I’m covered for t-shirt options!

We met 40 years ago as tiny bebes in the park, and through the years we drifted apart several times but always found each other again at various dance recitals, school field trips, beach clubs, fabric stores, and summer jobs. The universe kept shoving us together til it stuck. This quilt is a hug from afar. I might not be able to get up to New Jersey frequently but this quilt will be there for cozy/comforting times as needed. 

I picked out my fabric, then used a quilt generator at savoreverystitch.com (the last slide), then imported it into Photoshop and colored over it (second to last slide), basically changing the whole thing, but it was an awesome starting place.
