The Core T-Shirt is a timeless wardrobe basic, our take on a classic crew-neck t-shirt. With a slightly boxy silhouette, it comes in two lengths with two sleeve options and is destined to be made more than once.

View A is a semi-cropped tee with short sleeves, the perfect length to pair with high-waisted pants. View B hits at the hip with 3/4 length sleeves. All views feature an optional patch pocket and an optional back neck and shoulder binding for a professional-looking finish.

Suggested Fabric

  • This pattern can be made in a variety of knit fabrics with at least 30% crosswise stretch. For a more structured look, choose 100% cotton interlock and jersey. For a drapier effect, choose cotton/spandex blends, ribbed or rayon knits.

FAQ

How do I print my PDF pattern?

All of our patterns come in a Letter/A4 format (for printing on a home printer) and 36"x48"/A0 format (for printing at a copyshop). Some patterns also come in a projector format. Please check the INFO+ tab under the description to see page counts and file formats available.

For more help printing and assembling our PDF patterns, please visit our PDF Printing Guide

How do I download my PDF Pattern?

First, we suggest creating an account in our shop so you can access all your files in one place at any time!

After you place an order, you will land on a page with a custom download link. You can download your pattern then, or use the link included in the order confirmation sent via email. If you don’t receive a download link via email, please check your junk mail as it may have been rerouted (and add us to your safe senders list so it doesn't happen again!)

Am I charged for taxes?

All Canadians are charged GST and possibly PST depending on where they live in Canada. We do not charge taxes in the US.

Customers based in the EU and UK will also be charged VAT on all goods. Regulations have changed in recent years requiring VAT to be collected based on where the customer resides (and not where the company is located) so we are legally required to collect and remit VAT even though our company is based in Canada. You can read more about the VAT regulations here.

What currency will I be charged in?

Use the dropdown at the top of our menu to choose USD, CAD, AUD, GBP, or EUR dollars to view prices and checkout in the currency of your choice.

For AUD, GBP, and EUR currencies, the price you'll see is linked to the daily exchange rate between USD and your currency, which means prices may fluctuate. For our Canadian customers, we have established set prices that will not vary with exchange rates.

Shipping + Returns

Shipping

American customers: Packages in the US are shipped via USPS First Class and Priority Mail twice a week. Please allow 8 to 12 days for your parcel to arrive.

Canadian customers: Your orders are sent via Canada Post letter or parcel post. Please allow 8 to 12 days for your parcel to arrive, and wait up to 3 weeks before contacting us. 

International customers: Estimated delivery dates are listed below the shipping price when you checkout. We have two possible services. International First Class is for packages under 2 kilos and takes approx 10-40 days to arrive depending on your location. International Priority is a bit faster and should arrive at your destination in approx 8-20 days. Both services include tracking for *most* destinations.

Order tracking

Most shipping services we offer come with a tracking number. This will be sent to you via email you once the order has been processed in our warehouse.

Given the huge volume of mail and the challenges that the pandemic, holiday season, and environmental conditions impose on the performance of the mail service, we ask you to please be patient with the delivery of your packages, and get in touch after 3 weeks for Canadian and US shipments, and 6 weeks for international shipments.

If the above mentioned waiting times have elapsed, please message us about your delay. We’ll be happy to work with you to figure out a solution.

Perfect fitted tee pattern

Ok. So I thought I would try this pattern with me as the guinea pig. Two tee shirts in a weekend and they are perfect. Sewed one as written and made slits in the other. I like the side slits best, so will alter the first tee to have side slits at the hem too. Have just received more bamboo and cotton lycra crazy print fabric, so tees for everyone for Christmas; starting to sew this weekend. At first I wondered about the length, should I lengthen or leave as in pattern. Trust me, the pattern length is perfect.

Brilliant!

This is the first stretch garment I’ve ever sewn and the detailed instructions made it a piece of cake! The finished t-shirt (I made the short-sleeved cropped view) is, in my humble opinion, perfection! A massive thank you to the closet core team for this pattern x

Hand-sewn core t-shirt

I cut this project out at home and took the pieces in my bag with basting thread, matching garment thread, beeswax, good quality hand sewing needles, straight pins, scissors and clips in a loc n'loc on a two week week road trip.

I worked on the t-shirt in the evenings. I had used a fabric remnant with a nice stretchy bounce to it so the sewing was quite easy; I just made sure I basted all seams before I backstitched them and then whipstitched them together. The neckline seam was flattened down with two rows of spaced back stitch. I did not use the optional back neck piece.

It was a very clear pattern and an easy one too to practise my hand-sewning on. I like the boxy fit on my body. The only thing I'll do in the future is grade a slightly bigger neckline as I find the neck a wee bit high for me.

Thank-you so much for this free pattern. I'm sure I will make it again and again; maybe I'll even try a machine sewn one!

Great T-shirt

I’ve always been terrified by sewing knits, but recently bought a serger and decided it was time to conquer my fear. Because I loved the Carolyn pj pattern, I decided my inaugural knit project should be a Closet Core pattern because the instructions are straight forward and very clear. What a fabulous pattern and I made myself a 3/4 sleeve t-shirt on my serger with relative ease! It fits wonderfully and I really like it. I’ll definitely be making more of my own t-shirts using this pattern. Thanks for creating a pattern that is easy to make and looks good.
