Boy’s Shirt Pattern Sew-Along: McCall’s M6428

And here is shirt #3! This one is made also with one of Michael Miller’s new interlock knit fabric – it’s called Nordic Diamond and comes in a handful of colors. It’s super soft, very stretchy and comfortable, and just really nice fabric all around. So wonderful to work with and it looks so great all made up as a shirt.

MATERIALS & SUPPLIES

  • McCall’s M6428 (it’s pictured as a pajama top but it works great as a play/school shirt too, it will just be a little more fitted. I would recommend choosing one size larger.)
  • Stretch knit fabric – see envelope for yardage (I used the coming-in-August Patty Young prints for Michael Miller)
  • jersey/interlock etc for shirt main
  • ribbing for neck band and sleeves
  • standard sewing supplies
  • **Sew all seams at 5/8″ unless otherwise instructed. I also recommend using a stretch stitch if possible.
