This was a quick fun little project. I picked out the pattern because I love boat neck shirts, they’re wonderfully flattering on me. I also really like the detail of gap line in the back.
It was made from butterick pattern 5497. The only thing that made it tricky is that I found the underbust seam really tight on me, and it was definitely tighter in the torso than I’m usually comfortable with. I plan on making this shirt again, except perhaps following the pattern for shirt A, and I’ll definitely go up a size from what I normally use.
The shirt is made out of spoonflower fabric designed by Locamode. I’m actually wearing the shirt in the final picture, which we used for myMeet Spoonflower Interview, taken by Stephen Frasier.
I wrote a review for this pattern here: Butterick Blouse B5497 ★★★★
