The Benchwarmer Tee is our take on the perfectly oversized, slightly retro T-shirt. Inspired by the easy, boxy tees of the ’90s, it has a relaxed fit, dropped shoulders, and plenty of room to move. It’s comfy, casual, and designed to be the kind of tee you reach for over and over again.
Choose between short or long sleeves to make it work for any season. Wear it on its own, layer it up, or make a few for an easy everyday rotation.
One of our favorite things about this pattern is just how simple it is to sew. Designed for knit fabrics, it can be sewn entirely on an overlocker or with a zigzag stitch on your regular sewing machine. Either way, it comes together surprisingly fast, making it a great first knit project or a satisfying quick sew whenever you feel like making something fun.
