I would recommend some sort of cotton knit because it's easy to work with and it's important for the neck-part. *This project is aimed more toward people who have basic sewing skills with a machine Sorry for not having actual pictures because I made this shirt before I even made an account XD You can definitely take this basic form I've given you and add embellishments! You can use different fabrics, colors, etc! :D have fun being creative with this simple project! Good Luck!

Instructions

  1. Small shirt pattern 1282019276

    in scale to your size, trace these patterns into your fabric, and cut them out (leaving a seam-allowance) *a tank top pattern helps for pieces 1 & 2!* 1) back piece 2) front chest piece 3) front bottom half 4) neck piece (12 inches wide; the length equals the length of the tank top's neckline)

    take piece 4 (the neck) and fold it in half hotdog-style then fold it hamburger-style and sew the open end to make a fat, floppy, ring *** this piece is now the collar of your shirt

    sew the collar to the neck of the shirt; MAKE SURE the open end of the ring is getting sewed to the shirt and not the folded end
