Description

This batwing top was super easy to make and is most comfortable to wear! The jersey I bought on sale and it has the softest hand, but it is starting to pill already :( The instructions were not too helpful with this project – I ended up making up my own way to do the neckband and I decided to band the hem of the whole shirt. I would recommend making a shorter band than neckline length (not sure why the instructions are different – maybe I made it incorrectly!) and hiding the band end in the center front miter. Otherwise you have an awkward seam on the side of your neckband. Otherwise – it’s a great, quick project!

(008080 is the color coordinate for the official teal color….at least according to wikipedia :) )
