I have a grandson who just loves my woven shirts--I use different materials for the yoke collar etc. Now I need a long sleeved pattern for him? I have issues with cuffs and have only done one such shirt so am looking for an easy cuff if there is such an animal? I have no issues with formal shirt tail rolled hemming. So I need a young boy's pattern that would go up to size 18? He is 9 or 10 years old. Thanks for any help. He often wears his shirts open over a t that I have embroidered. Thanks again for any help!

Sub title: with cuffed sleeves. You may get the hits you need, nonetheless. -- Edited on 11/15/12 11:24 AM -- ------ “I don’t give them Hell, I just tell the truth about them and they think it’s Hell.” — Harry Truman

Then you can perfect your cuff skills and add them. Is he overweight? 9 yrs and size 18? Or do you want a pattern he will grow into over the years? I got a wonderful set of plus size patterns for my now 10 yo GS. Here is a link to one of her boys shirts: http://plussizechildren.com/pattern6103.htm ------ re-living my youth through sewing...
