Buy the Scout Tee sewing pattern from Grainline Studio. The Scout is a woven t-shirt with cap sleeves and scoop neck. It's fitted at the shoulders and falls into a more relaxed shape below the bust. Perfect on its own for spring and summer and a great layering piece under blazers and cardigans the rest of the year.

This sewing pattern is available to buy in the following format:

- PAPER (next working day dispatch on orders and FREE UK delivery over £50)

What we think: This is what Grainline does best - simple clean shapes that you want to make again and again. For a casual look why not use a chambray or ikat, and for a more dressed up look perhaps a crepe.

Suggested fabrics: Light to medium-light weight fabrics such as cotton, silk, lawn, voile, charmeuse, crepe de chine, or wool crepe.

Fabric requirements: Extra fabric needed to match plaids, stripes, or one-way design fabrics.

Sizes 0 - 18: 45" (114 cm) wide fabric: 1 2/3 - 1 7/8 yd (1.6 - 1.8 m) // 54" (137 cm) wide fabric: 1 5/8 - 1 3/4 yd (1.5 - 1.7 m).

Sizes 14 - 30: 45" (114 cm) wide fabric: 2 1/8 - 2 1/2 yd (1.8 - 2.2 m) // 54" (137 cm) wide fabric: 2 - 2 1/4 yd (1.7 - 2 m).

Sizing: US 0 - 18 (approx. UK 8 - 18, based on our standardised size chart) or US 14 - 30 (approx. UK 16 - 30, based on our standardised size chart). Please also check the designer's size charts and finished garment measurements.

The 0 - 18 size range is drafted for a B sewing cup size. The 14 - 30 size range is drafted for a D sewing cup size. Both size ranges are drafted for a height of 5'5".

Fishy scout tee

Used secondhand fabric to try pattern out. Nice to make, could try smaller size next time or softer fabric.

Scout Tee

Although this the Grainline Scout Tee was released in 2011 it still is a populair pattern. The pattern is wel drafted just like the sewing instructions and illustrations. After some measuring I printed size 6. I used two types of fabric: crepe for the front and sleeves and jersey for the back. Both fabrics have almost the weight. This is important because when one fabric is heavier then the other one it will probably cause fabric shifting. Alterations: the neckline into a boatneck shape (boatneck is finished with on the bias cut tape using the overlap method) and welt breast pocket added. The crepe fabric is stitched with white yarn and the jersey fabric with black for a polished result. Overal a good pattern for a beginner with great result.

Scout Tee

A simple summer top.
Made from a draped fabric.
Amendments made- narrowed the width of the bottom slightly to give less width. Shortened body by 2inches( I am only 5 foot 2). Overlocker all edges and just turned back securing with twin needle stitching as a quicker option than bias binding
Highly recommended for a woven staple top. Second make - and cutting out a third

Scout Tee

This is a really satisfying, easy sew. The pattern is really well drafted and is a fun alternative to classic jersey tees as it is designed for woven fabrics. I made mine using this lightweight ikat cotton and I am really pleased with the outcome.

I made a couple of adjustments lengthening the bodice by 10cm and adding side slits. For more info and more photos check out my blog post https://attieanddora.com/2018/04/03/ikat-scout-tee/

Scout Tee review

This is my third Scout Tee, this time made in Art Gallery cotton with a broderie anglais yoke at the front as I only had a metre of fabric. This pattern is blissfully easy, on the Grainline Studio website you can find a sew along, tips for fabric and lots of other advice. I made the bias wider and turned it to the outside to break the whiteness of the broderie anglais. Although there are no darts, this top does sit beautifully. I am a UK size14 and made the size 12. This top is a loose fit, so it's worth lying one of your tops over this before you do the side seams to gauge size. I added the yoke by sewing the main fabric to the broderie anglais and then cut the front so the main fabric started about 4cm down from the armhole and find that gives a nice line. I have also made this top in double gauze, I cut out a 14 for that one to make it looser.
