Notes	It took me so long to get around to making this one - 4 years since I first ordered the pattern! Needless to say I am now a different shape and size, so I ordered the same style again in my current size. I am pleased that I did, as this shirt fits well and feels good. The collar and cuffs are rather large, but that is part of the style of this shirt! Fabric is a very warm brushed cotton, just right for the colder weather. Unfortunately the weave was not very "true" and I made the error of cutting out fabric double. If I make anything which needs pattern matching again I must remember to cut out of single fabric!!!
