The experiment with Named patterns' ruska t-shirt. Apart from the synthetic fabric sticking to my underwear 😆, you have to admit it's a pretty good fit. The better sleeve gives me a lot of easy arm movement. Pants are my latest @stylearc.bsky.social bobs, in pinwale corduroy

Just tested the Named ruska t-shirt, comparing to my @freesewing.org bella block and also my favorite classic tee from Love Notions. Armscyes are better, more scooped in front, more ease in back. Shoulders are perfect for me right off, and sleeves so much better. But I took 1" off in arm height

This is going to be a long-term theme, I can tell

This turtleneck is 10+ years old. Every.single.time I wear it, I'm annoyed that I need some careful figuring out of which side is the back. Also, the unhemmed sleeves were starting to ravel a bit. My sewing machine was threaded with black, no excuse. It must have taken me 10 mn. Sigh 🧵

And let's remember Pierette Le Pen, who endured the asshole for a quarter century and had his 3 children. When he dumped her and refused her any alimony, he said she could just support herself doing housework. She did.. in a large Playboy spread, in a French maid uniform.
