| Pattern Description:
Boys' Shirt, long sleeved and short sleeved.
Pattern Sizing:
92-134, I made a size 92 for my 18 months old boy and it fits like a glove.
Did it look like the photo/drawing on the pattern envelope once you were done sewing with it?
It did.
Were the instructions easy to follow?
Really easy, in Dutch with lots of photographs illustrating every single step.
What did you particularly like or dislike about the pattern?
I love the boyish look of the shirt, with the collar and the slit in the front. No pajama shirt look at all, that's always a real risk using printed knits for boys IMHO. The front and back are double-layered, which makes the shirt warm but also versatile. I've already made three, and I don't think they look alike. No dislikes at all.
The first shirt, from a Hilco knit with little cars.
Couldn't resist showing these ones too 
The second shirt with helicopters and (neon) orange accents.
Back of the shirt
Fabric Used:
Cotton lycra knits combined with interlock knits.
Pattern alterations or any design changes you made:
On my third shirt I added sort of cuffs to the sleeve ends.
Here is a photo
Would you sew it again? Would you recommend it to others?
I did already make three and I certainly will make it again.
Conclusion:
A lovely, sweet, versatile shirt for boys!
