Lavender Shirt with Open Collar

Since designing the Taffeta Holiday Shirt for Classic Sewing article, Rae has made several versions of the open collar shirt. This one, for herself, is crafted in a very light weight striped cotton, creating a cool summer shirt – perfect whether providing a little protection from the sun or an overly air-conditioned environment. Follow Rae’s directions in Summer Shirt with an Open Collar to make your own variation on Shirt Variations for the TRJ.

The Lavender shirt also incorporates the two-piece sleeve from Jean Jacket Variations, modified to a 3/4 length, and a back yoke with pleated lower back, described in Rain or Shine Variations. Get all the Tabula Rasa Jacket variation patterns so you can mix and match your own creations!
