The Cuppa Tee is a basic ladies’ t-shirt, essential for every wardrobe!
The Cuppa Tee has a relaxed fit with gentle shaping. There are two necklines, three sleeve lengths and three hem options. Additionally, there is a separate pattern piece for those who require a full bust adjustment.
This pattern goes from XXS – 5XL.
Lighter weight knit fabrics such as cotton/Lycra jersey are perfect for this beginner-friendly pattern.
An overlocker/serger will create the neatest finish, but importantly a regular sewing machine is all you need for all options.
This listing is for 4 downloadable PDF files: Instructions, a print-at-home pattern, a copy shop pattern and a projector pattern.
Print the print-at-home pattern on A4/legal/letter sized paper.
Take the copy shop file to a professional printer to print onto large sheets of paper.
Use the projector file to project the pattern straight onto your fabric.

The pattern is created in layers meaning. As a result you can print just the layers (sizes) you need.
The Four Seasons Joggers is another beginner-friendly pattern and it goes wonderfully with the Cuppa Tee.

A fabulous staple for any wardrobe. I found the sizing spot on for flattering my post-baby tum rather than highlighting it! The instructions made it straight forward to construct and it looks great under some heydays ☺️.

I’m not an experienced sewer, but using this pattern I now have a lovely well-fitting t-shirt 😁 The instructions are very clear and I found the pattern made up quickly..

This was my first pattern I ever created and it was sooooo easy. The step by step instructions were clear and easy to follow even for a non sewer like me. The print at home pattern was simple to put together, a bit time consuming as you would expect, but simple. Loved it so much I wanted to make a matching top for my daughter and used another brand pattern that I had already on hand… Never again! I ended up using the pattern pieces but sewing it together following the W&W instructions! Would recommend
