You've seen the final version of the Neverland Shirt. This was my first.
Myra likes this one, too.
One of the things that the tester group really worked hard on was getting the collar just right. You can see that this version isn't perfect. I overlapped it a bit too much. It is also the smaller version of the collar.
The testers in the group liked both versions so much, Nicole decided to have both options in the final pattern. I think it was the perfect decision. I love the big bold collar of the other version, but this petite collar is perfectly sweet.
The fabric for this version is a double knit that has very little recovery, so it has a looser fit than the star shirt. I think it looks great with slim pants like these floral Hosh Pants. (Preview: an expanded size range and better fit for the Hosh is currently in testing, as well as a wide leg version that you are going to LOVE!)
The cuffs and collar are a super thin viscose jersey. In retrospect, it isn't the perfect fabric and I wish I had lightly interfaced both collar and cuffs. Particularly the cuffs, as they have a tendency to collapse while Myra is wearing the top.
All in all, this pattern is definitely a winner for us. These two are in constant rotation in Myra's wardrobe, and I know I'll make more. The pattern goes all the way up to size 16!

Cole's Creations Neverland Shirt
I was so excited to be able to test this adorable shirt! It came at the perfect time too; just as I was contemplating Myra's fall wardrobe.
The pattern is the newly released Neverland Shirt from Cole's Corner. It is a cute little long sleeve tee with cuffs and an adorable peter pan collar.
The neckline is finished with a binding which captures the collar and finishes it cleanly. The pattern offers two methods for attaching the binding, but for this version (which is my second and made from the final version of the pattern) I used my coverstitch binder.
The fit of the top is sleek, but not too snug. Myra and I both love the fit. It goes well with both slim pants as well as full skirts, so it's a very versatile top.
The main fabric is from Kitschy Coo. It is made by Znok and it is so super soft! Kitschy Coo still has some of the pink, as well as two other colorways. The pink polka dot was hanging out in my stash. I was thrilled to find such a good color match!
The cutest detail of this top though, is those notched cuffs. They're adorable and so easy to attach! You won't believe it. They are stitched into the sleeve seam, so they stay folded up when the kiddo plays.
This is a completely cute, but surprisingly easy to sew pattern, and the best part is that it comes in a crazy huge size range. from size 1/2 (6 month) all the way up to 16 years!! Head over to the Craftsy shop and get yours!
