I still had some cotton lycra diagonal tartan Spoonflower fabric<\/a> leftover from my tartan dress project<\/a>, so I decided it was about time for my husband to get in on the tartan fun. I paired the tartan fabric with royal blue cotton lycra from knitfabric.com<\/a> and made him a short-sleeved Sinclair Tao semi-fitted classic raglan tshirt<\/a>. I also made myself a cap sleeve, scoop neck Sinclair Demi classic raglan knit top<\/a>. Both came together very quickly and easily even though it was my first time using both patterns.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Demi is semi-fitted, similar to the Sinclair Cachet<\/a> relaxed top (which does not have separate sleeve pieces). It is not as fitted as the Sinclair Bondi<\/a>. I really like the scoop neck option, which is not as low as the Bondi scoop neck — more like my invented Bondi screwp neck<\/a>. The fit of the Tao is almost identical to the fit of the Sinclair Kai semi-fitted crew neck for men<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
