xenophea 12/2/07I just did a turtleneck KS in rayon/lycra for DH and I had less than ideal results, too. But the same pattern worked beautifully for cotton interlock. I'm wondering if the rayon is just too heavy and drapey for Kwik Sews particular neckline draft.

Leora 12/2/07It really isn't bad at all, in fact a tee underneath would work great. Here, try this neckline method and see if that doesn't fix the problem, it might just be the fabric.

CynthiaSue 12/3/07how fun to see a BOY! :) I think it looks great. Love the raglan sleeves!

Debbie Cook 12/3/07I've made this tee many times and I don't have the same problem with the neckline, using sizes S-M-L, or any KS neckline actually. I'm wondering if you're sewing with 1/4" seam allowances? As xenophea said, maybe the rayon didn't have enough recovery? But your shirt (and model) look nice even with the troubles.

OP Gal 12/3/07I think you must have done a superl save with the neckline, because it looks great to me...um, and so does the model. Thanks for the review.

Corkypompom 12/3/07Your review was pretty amusing! Nah, doesn't look that terrible. Looks quite okay to me.
