Burda Style For people who sew
Description
I had a similar (store bought) t-shirt with a twist in the front, that I really loved. When it got stained and all my efforts to remove that stain failed, I took it apart and copied its pattern to jersey, to make myself a new one in the same shape.
When I de-constructed it I saw how clever this twist is.
In fact, it is so easy that any v-neck shirt pattern you have can be altered to add this twist!
The instructions are not a pattern, but a recipe for you all to use on any v-neck shirt pattern you have.
Material Notes
White jersey.

Thank you so much for this wonderful hint. The shirt looks great. I knew that “reverse engineering” also can work in tailoring. Now I know, daring to cut up an old loved garment can give one new insights.
