Charlie Brown shirt


I made another recycled t-shirt.

For this one, I used Butterick 3030. It takes a lot of imagination to see the potential in this pattern.

I chopped up two t-shirts that I thought went together fairly well. Again, I salvaged the original neck band, though this time I had to actually sew it back on.


In this pattern, "small" means large. I consider myself medium.

Also, I remembered that I am long-waisted. So my edits to this pattern include putting a big, ugly dart in the sleeve (hard to make out in this picture, but believe me, it's there) and grafting in a big old stripe from the other shirt. Hence the Charlie Brown title.

Still, a wearable shirt.
