Every wardrobe needs those staple pieces that work overtime, the ones you reach for daily to pare back to your more eccentric, personality-driven pieces. Think of them as the reliable supporting actors that let your statement pieces take the leading role. They may not be flashy, but they are indeed...essential.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003eThe Essential V-Neck Tee is the perfect t-shirt for a semi-fitted silhouette with an open neckline. The gently curved V neckline is finished with a standard neckband construction and delicate edgestitching along the front for that slightly elevated look, a nod to what Izzie patterns are known for. The back neckline is beautifully finished for both comfort and aesthetics with a back neck binding. If you’re up for learning a new trick, the sleeve hems and body hem can optionally be finished with a flatlock stitch on your serger. This stitch creates the look of little vertical threads on the outside of your garment for the ultimate designer-tee finish.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch5 class=\"p1\"\u003eSKILLS\u003c\/h5\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"p1\"\u003eOverlock\/Zig-Zag Stitch\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"p1\"\u003eEdgestitch\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"p1\"\u003eSewing with knits\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"p1\"\u003eBack neck t-shirt binding\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"p1\"\u003eFlatlock stitch with a serger\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch5 class=\"p1\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"s2\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003ePATTERN DETAILS\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/h5\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan class=\"s1\"\u003ePurchase includes a digital pattern file with sizes XS-XL B-Cup size range and 1X-5X D-Cup size range\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan class=\"s1\"\u003eSkill level: Confident Beginner\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"s1\"\u003ePDF pattern includes illustrated instruction document, A0 copy shop files, print at home files prepared for A4 \u0026amp; letter size paper, and projector files.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch5 class=\"p1\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"s2\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eMATERIALS NEEDED\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/h5\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"p1\"\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"s1\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSelf fabric\u003c\/strong\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e(your main fabric)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"p2\" style=\"font-weight: bold;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eMatching all-purpose thread to your fabric\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p4\"\u003e\u003cem\u003eOptional:\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"p4\"\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"s1\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWooly nylon thread \u003c\/strong\u003e- \u003c\/span\u003eFor upper and lower loopers on a serger\/overlock sewing machine (can also be used in the bobbin of a regular home sewing machine to increase elasticity of stitches)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"p4\"\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"s1\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHeat \u0026amp; Bond\u003c\/strong\u003e - \u003c\/span\u003eFor ease of hemming knits Heat \u0026amp; Bond Soft Stretch Lite or Ultra fusible web adhesive is highly recommended!

With the semi-fitted shaping, you will want some stretch for comfort and ease while wearing, but it is not necessary to use a highly stretchy material. Elastane is not required in your fabric composition. Think more like your favorite vintage tee for fabric inspiration! The fit is designed for a relaxed fabric with a soft drape. Brushed cotton jerseys and slub knits will create the ultimate version of this tee. Plain jersey knits in any type of composition, from cotton to hemp to modal blends, are a great option. Rib knits can also be used for this project, for the entire tee or even just for the neckband piece as a contrast design detail.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"s1\"\u003eIt is recommended to choose a fabric below 7oz or 237gsm. Super lightweight or slippery knits may result in a more difficult sewing experience.

All these traits vary from fabric to fabric resulting in a drastic change in how materials behave on the body. Each fabric may fit differently! This is completely normal for knits. Think about how you want your tee to feel and choose your fabric, THEN choose your size.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003e\u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0637\/1269\/0272\/files\/Essential_Vneck_Tee_Sewing_Pattern_Product_Listing_Images.jpg?v=1789157711\" alt=\"\"\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch5\u003e\u003cspan class=\"s2\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eFIT RECOMMENDATIONS\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/h5\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003eThe Essential V-Neck Tee is designed to be semi-fitted, with the most shaping through the bust, where the pattern carries negative ease across the full bust measurement. From there, the fit relaxes through the waist and hip, with positive ease built in for a comfortable, easy drape. The exact amount of ease you’ll experience depends on where your measurements fall within your size, so if you’re between sizes, size up for a more relaxed fit or down for something closer to the body. The shoulders sit close to the body, and the short sleeves are fairly fitted around the bicep for a clean, tailored line. The V neckline is gently curved and designed to hit just below your upper bust. If you wish to raise the neckline, see the following page for detailed pattern adjustment steps. The hem falls at the low hip, striking a versatile length that works equally well worn loose or tucked into your favorite jeans.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch5\u003e\u003cspan class=\"s2\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eSIZE GUIDE\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/h5\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003eChoose your size based on your high bust \u0026amp; full bust measurement. The bust area is the most fitted part of the garment.
