I had some gray and black wool jersey left over from other projects. I made this in a size T and graded out to the hips a little. It was very simple to assemble, minus the neckband. Is this really the best way to affix a neckband? I must figure out how to use that coverstitch machine! I can coverstitch hems, but I haven't figured out bands yet. I like how the shirt turned out, but there are some aspects of it that make me doubt whether it is a good style on me. 
  1. First off, the neckline is a little too large for my comfort. 
  2. The sleeves...I am not a big fan of 3/4 sleeves. I don't find them comfortable.
  3. or warm, like the neckline.
  4. It's a great T-shirt look, but it doesn't work so well as a work shirt because the front is not too shaped. The two-toned design is lost under a sweater or jacket, which is essential office wear. Offices are always cold.
  5. I think the cover shows the best use of this dolman design. I should either make a loose sweater or use a print in the middle if I do this again. I think I will for a pullover sweater.
