Of course I’ve found that people who feel frustrated sewing with knits are often using a lower-end machine, which is fine. You don’t need a serger or fancy sewing machine to sew with knits. If you’ve never sewing with knits, check out my detailed Sewing with Knits post HERE. When you’re done you should have 3 finished pattern pieces. Remember, do not cut on the dotted line…unless you plan to make a MUSCLE TEE. Do this for both the Front and Back pattern pieces, then cut out the sleeve piece as well. ![]() Tape on the front and back of the pages, then cut out the entire pattern piece. Cut along the top line of the pattern piece on page two and line it up with the bottom line of the pattern piece on page one and tape them together.Where you do want to line up the first two pages is on the pattern lines themselves.These are not meant to overlay each other, or to match up with the pattern lines. There are circle markers on the first two pages showing which direction to line up the pages.NOTE: There is a dotted line near the armhole line, which is for a MUSCLE TEE version! Get the detailed tutorial HERE. And print the third page only once (the sleeve page). Print the first 2 pages TWO times (so you have a front and back for the T-shirt).If they don’t match up perfectly, play with your settings and print again. Use a ruler to measure against the printing ruler and the one square inch on the pattern. There are 2 size references on the pattern to judge whether you’ve printed properly.If you live in another country outside the USA, print to your standard paper size and measure against the sizing ruler to see if you’re printed properly.The pages do NOT print to the edge, so you don’t have to worry about borderless printing, etc. Print it using standard settings (if you’re having problems, you can always play with your print settings but I found that standard US Letter worked best). It prints to standard US paper size, 8.5 x 11 inches. (Or create your own pattern using a current T-shirt your child owns as your guide, or size down my pattern using a current Tee as your guide and creating similar lines.)

If you need gear immediately please Contact Us and I'll see what, if anything, I can do to expedite the process.Welcome to Celebrate the BOY! with two weeks of boy-ish fun here at MADE and on Made by Rae.Ī few weeks ago I was looking for short-sleeved t-shirts for Owen and they were nowhere to be found. Build times aren't any slower, but material delivery times have increase by 2-4 times what they normally are. During COVID many of my suppliers are running at minimum capacity, their suppliers and manufactures are just as hindered. If Lead Times are not shown on our Lead Times page, such as during the current COVID-19 situation, that means I can't accurately estimate times. If order volume is high, I will adjust that time frame accordingly. Generally, it takes about 2-3 weeks from order date to the day I ship an order for items that I don't have the materials in stock for. It's faster to make 2 pouches than 2 hammocks and 2 tarps. This can vary depending on supplier, holidays, availability or other circumstances. Since your gear is made to order, the more orders I have the longer it can take.
