Completed: Jalie 2921 #2

かばんを作るのにミシンの針を換える前に、もうひとつカットソーを作ってみました。
ちなみに後ろはグレープフルーツの木です。もう花が咲いていい匂いです。
Jalie 2921 . Ignore my ill fitting pants.
 この型紙、前にも一回作っています。前のはノースリーブだったので、今回は七部袖。
スカーフ部分は胸元の内側から前身ごろの穴を通って前に出てくるんだけど、穴が大きすぎたみたいで、みれば見るほど肛門から大便が出てきてるようで、ちょっと微妙。茶色いだけに特に。
あとで穴のとこだけ縫い直そ。

I wanted to make one more knit garment before I change my sewing machine needle, and I made a Jalie 2921 Scarf Collar top again. My previous version was a sleeveless so this time I made a 3/4 sleeve.
Last time, I cut a size S (6), and I made a note to go down a size, and I did. This time I cut a size R (4). I think I should stick with S. It is tinsy bit tight at the chest. I also need to shorten it.
I also shorten the scarf collar again by 4". I originally planned to make a bow tie version but the fabric was a bit too heavy. I like this collar length for this version.

Fabric was poly crepe knit with 10% Lycra.

The big issue that I have with this particular version is that I think I left the center front slit (where the scarf collar goes through) too big. Because of the pulling at the bust, the slit gets expanded side ways, making it look like a butt hole with poo coming out. The color of the fabric does not help. I will have to stitch up that center front a bit.

Not much more to say. Simple construction and I like the shape very much. Very work appropriate, yet so comfortable to wear all day. The pattern uses very little fabric. I would like this top in a variety of color.
