Pattern Description:

The Summer Concert Tee was inspired by my need to be comfortable in the 100 degree summer weather in Texas. With the loose fit this tee is cool enough for hot days and hip enough for a music festival. This knit tee has a scoop neck and drop shoulders. The hem is cropped in front and long in back, perfect for pairing with high waist shorts.

This t-shirt is designed for beginners and is a great introduction to sewing with knits! The loose drape means little fitting. No set in sleeves and few seams make this an easy and quick sewing project. And the pattern instructions include helpful illustrations for nearly every step!

You don't need a serger to sew this pattern but if you have one, great!
