I made size 40 for my husband and followed the finished garment measurements instead of guessing, which really paid off. The shoulders and chest fit well right out of the gate, and I only shortened the hem by about an inch. It looks neat without feeling restrictive, which was exactly what I wanted.
I made a size L for my brother using mid-weight cotton fleece. The instructions were clear enough that I didn�t have to second-guess the hood steps. Once finished, the fit through the shoulders felt relaxed without looking sloppy.
I made these for wearing while working from home, using a cotton sateen. They�re relaxed enough to sit in all day but don�t look like sleepwear. The waistband construction was especially easy to follow.
I made a size 40 for my husband using cotton pique, and the shoulder fit turned out much better than ready-made polos. The instructions around the placket helped me get a clean finish without guessing. He�s worn it several times already, which is always a good sign.
I sewed the Ryan in size L using cotton jersey, and the finished fit is exactly what I expect from a classic men�s t-shirt. The shoulders sit well and the neckline turned out clean without feeling tight. I didn�t need to make any adjustments, which was a relief for a first sew of a new pattern.
