I've got the TNT top pattern down. It's becoming my go to woven tshirt.
 |
| This was before I rounded the neck out, It fits nicely. Last summer's hair though.... |
 |
| Some have long sleeves and are made of Ankara wax |
 |
| A few have no sleeves |
There are many more, but you get the idea.
 |
| I enlarged the head hole and angled it to the front, so it would not be too wide but not ride up on the back of my neck. Getting some pudge back there and it doesn't like to be stressed |
And now I want to play around some more with it.

Everything I'm looking at has notches

| Honestly can't remember where this photo comes from. Sorry. |
Well, this one doesn't. It's got a front yoke with an opening you can really only see because of the buttons. Frankly, you wouldn't need a closure except for looks. And they could be uneven.
 |
| the white line indicates where the facing piece would end. Yes, there would be a lot of clipping and trimming, but just one facing cut separately |
I mean, these are ideas. Next week I'll have a million more. Most will stink. Some will not. Those horizontal yoke seams don't have to be horizontal (but that does make them easier to piece. This pattern fits on 1.5 yds of novelty cotton with spare enough for a mask). So I will be thinking about this, as I have some other PANTS to finish as soon as my SISTER comes over to try on the first pair to make sure the pattern still works for her.

Meanwhile, I have zippers to replace and this yard project to sleep on
