I AM Patterns - Milor
About the Milor
The I AM Patterns' Milor, is a classic t-shirt with a delicate boat neckline. There are four variations, with 2 different neckline finishes (with or without jersey bias tape), and 2 sleeve lengths. It is easy to sew, and easy to wear. It's a timeless wardrobe item.
In an effort to reduce paper usage, the pattern pieces overlap with each other, so you will need to trace the pattern on paper or our Vilene Light. (Note - the overlapping is neither extensive nor hard to discern).
The packaging for I AM Patterns is beautiful but tricky to get into without ripping the lovely gold card that backs the pattern. Our suggestion is to jiggle the pattern down as far as it goes, and neatly cut off the top of the pattern. You will need to snip off approximately 1.75cm, but take care to steer clear of the pattern itself.
The Fabric
The Milor is designed for knit fabrics. Consider a striped jersey for the weekend, or a plain jersey underneath a jacket for a relaxed meeting.
