Part bird, part boy



Nothing to see here folks! Just another men's tee turned manligan, using this lovely pattern. But you know what they say...a manligan a day keeps the doctor away. Or should it be Mandigan? So confused. Diagnosis: Manligan Fever. The only known cure: make more manligans.


 I wish you could add things to your cv like, 'Applicant can completely shred, devour and re-use an entire men's t-shirt in minutes' and people would bow, not laugh! Admittedly, I felt a little guilty cutting this one up. There may have been a conversation with Mr Cirque Du Bebe and a vague hint dropped, like 'wow that's a reeeeeallllly cool shirt, I would wear that one'.  Sorry baby it wasn't me. It was the FEVER!

    Oh my... I think I might be coming down with the same disease when looking at these. Love the print, looks way cool and that's my opinion - my hubby on the other hand, would definitely not wear it :D

      Thanks Crystal but I have to say I was totally inspired by your awesome fish sweatshirt re-fashion.

      That tee shirt was such an amazing find!!! In yellow, no less! I'd pick that up at a thrift store in one HOT SECOND. My goodness. The manligan is awesome anyway, but that fabric, that fabric, that fabric! ... *Sadly decides it's unreproducible in its extreme coolness.*

    The sizing seems pretty spot on. I made a size 4 for my almost four year old and only needed to add another inch to the sleeve length.

    Shame I don't have boys. And yes, I think this should definitely go onto one's CV.

    OK I LOVE this. How have I never seen your blog before. This is just brilliant. How I wish that I had a little boy to make this for him. Amazing job.
