Elephant Tee

A review of Hey June Handmade Union St. Tee

Reviewed by TheSlowistSewist on 7th May, 2020

I recently asked for relaxed fit T-shirt recommendations on the Foldline FB Group – after making this T-shirt, I can see why this was popular.

This is my first time making a pattern by Hey June Handmade.  The pdf had a layering option so I could just print off my size.  There were 3 neckline variations (crew neck, scooped neck and V-neck) and an FBA piece was also included.  I opted for the crew neck version which I made in a size L.  I shortened the pattern by 1 inch because I’m only 5ft 0inches and I was trying to squeeze the T-shirt out of an offcut that I had picked up at a fabric swap.

I have made a few T-shirts but I found the instructions clear to follow with good diagrams throughout so this could easily be made by someone starting to sew with knits.

The end result was true size and I am very pleased with this garment.  I think that it will become a TNT in my wardrobe!
