The easy and essential women's T-shirt
Great news for all sewing enthusiasts: Ikatee has just launched a brand new women's T-shirt pocket pattern, called Tanger . Simple, versatile, and elegant, this design is already ready to be added to your collection of basics—perfect for experimenting, customizing, or adapting without limits.
An accessible and modular pattern
The Tanger T-shirt is designed to offer a straight, slightly loose fit that suits many body shapes while remaining comfortable to wear. Thanks to its different options, it can be transformed according to your wishes:
-
short sleeves, long sleeves or rolled-up short sleeves
-
three neckline shapes: classic round neck, scoop neck or crossover V-neck
These variations give a lot of freedom to play with styles, fabrics or finishes.
An ideal project, even for beginners
One of the great advantages of the Tanger pattern is its ease : It is particularly suitable for beginners - especially for getting started with stretch knits (jersey, interlock, etc.) and for learning how to sew a collar band or a neckband.
Ikatee also offers several free video tutorials to guide seamstresses step by step, making the learning experience smoother.
Sizes, materials and use
The Tanger pattern covers a wide range of sizes, from 32 to 52 , which makes it accessible to many body types. The suggestions for fabrics are varied and suitable: stretch knit, jersey, viscose, linen, etc. Optionally, a ribbed edge can be used for the neckline, and additional accessories such as a reinforcing strip or bias binding are available.
