Another Concord

I’ve sewn a few Cashmerette Concord tees now.  I really like the shoulder/neck/bust fit.  I generally sew size 12C/D bust, graded out to 14 waist then back to 12 hips.

This is fine for fitted tees, that are perfect for layering under other garments. The back could probably do with a short back waist length alteration, but for this type of garment I think it’s neither here nor there.  A lot of the back fold issues are really due to the body underneath the bra and how elastic affects it.

This is such beautiful quality fabric! There’s a narrower blue stripe in there too, which you can see better in the next photo. I really like the neckline depth.

After having sewn a few Concords, I realised that there was still a gap in my pattern arsenal for a tee that had the bust/chest/shoulder fit of the Concord, but was more forgiving through my torso. Stay tuned for a future blog post about my pattern mashup exploration!
