From Paper Theory:

The Block Tee is a modern, oversized t-shirt, designed to look relaxed and feel easy to wear in a woven fabric without restricting movement.   

The body is much wider than a regular t-shirt and the sleeves are longer than normal, sitting just above the elbow, with the angular kimono armholes being its hallmark feature. The neckline has a hidden binding to complement its minimalist design and the hem turn ups are extra deep to emphasise its boxy silhouette.  

Recommended Fabrics: The pattern was designed with a woven fabric like Linen or Cotton in mind, and it would work equally well in something light and drapey like a Crepe de Chine or Silk.

Sizes: UK 6-28

Note: This pattern was formerly known as the Kabuki Tee
