Meet the Concord, your new favorite tee! Fully customizable, this knit t-shirt is a classic wardrobe staple that's designed for curves with cup sizes from C – H and thoughtful proportions. Forget about t-shirts that are too tight at the bust, baggy and hanging off your shoulders, or bunching into your armpits: the Concord is designed for a body just like yours.
Create your own custom design from three hem lengths (cropped, mid-length or long curved), three necklines (high, V-neck, or scoop), three sleeve lengths (short, medium, or long), two sleeve finishes (cuffed or hemmed), and optional sleeve tabs.
Whether you layer them over jeans on Friday night, or pair them with floral skirts at the office, you’ll want a closet of Concords!
This Cashmerette pattern includes:
- Cup sizes from C to H
- A sizing calculator which will tell you exactly which size to make
- A beautifully illustrated and detailed instruction booklet, to guide you no matter your sewing level
- A full photo sewalong on our blog with tips and techniques that go beyond the instruction booklet

Customer Reviews
I love the Concord T. I have made 4 so far. I've tried all the combinations from short and longer sleeves, short, hip, and tunic length, and they all fit great. I love the assistance from the website - you can enter your measurements and it will calculate which size(s) will fit you. There is also a great blog article on the best way to grade their patterns. The instructions are very clear and easy to follow with great illustrations. I also like how I can print only the size(s) needed from the PDF pattern, which makes it much easier to cutout and follow (no having to trace the cutting lines with a marker to tell where to cut!) All in all, I love the Concord-T and highly recommend it and Cashmerette Patterns!
I’ve been struggling to find a tee shirt pattern that I like for quite a long time, and after a few adjustments (the armscye being too long for me) here it is! I prefer tees without spandex and thus too much stretch, so I made it one size up and one cup size up. Nirvana! I’ve made two short-sleeves, scoop neck tees and am now finishing a dress I’ve cobbled up from the top. Fantastic!
I have now made this T shirt 5 times so far, grading from a size 20 bust to 18 hips, and am so pleased with the pattern. It is easy to follow, fits me perfectly, and I will be making more!
I heard that it’s rather fitted through the mid section so since I have ‘ripples’ between my under bust & waist I didn’t use this pattern.
This pattern is great, just like all the other cashmerette patterns! I chose my size using cashmerette’s online size calculator and it fit perfectly! Many thanks to Jenny and the team for the extended 0-16 size range :D
