Sinclair Bondi classic fitted t-shirt 6p, wide screwp neck, short sleeves, broad and sloped shoulder adjustment, 2.5 inch above hip length, less than 1 yard of black cotton-lycra.
I made my daughter the perfect fitted black t-shirt to her specifications a few months ago, so now it was time to make one to my specs. This is about the billionth bondi t-shirt I’ve made, but maybe the first with this combination of adjustments: size 6p with broad and sloped shoulder adjustment, wide screwp neck, waist cut 2.5 inches above hip length. I used less than 1 yard of the black Santa Cruz cotton lycra from CaliFabrics that I used for my daughter’s shirt. This length works really well for me for a shirt I’m not going to tuck in. The size 4p also works for me in this pattern (see the recent turquoise DBP shirt I made in 4p), but I like the extra bit of ease with the size 6p in this fabric. This was a very fast make, even though I took the time to convert to cover-stitch mode for the sleeve and bottom hems.
