Mystical Mushroom James

I made this James out of a cotton/linen blend.  It’s a bit lightweight, but it was super easy to work with.  I used the instructions with the pattern and the sewalong on the Ready to Sew website, and I didn’t have any trouble.  I too thought the facing was awkward, but I got it done.

Like the other review mentions, the head hole is small.  I can get my head through it, but I have to take my glasses off.  I also went up a couple sizes and made a 38, but for my next one, I will go up one more size.

The shirt is awesome.  I chose to do a side pocket on this one, and I don’t like it near as much as I thought I would.  I plan to make another out of a heavier linen.
