Burda 8363- t-shirt #2

Burda 8363.. This is not a knit pattern, but I resized
it and made a tshirt pattern from it..
Light teal blue /white polka dot knit.
 Super easy t-shirt and oh so comfortable to
wear.  I  used my double needle to hem ,I
 meant to take a close up of it, but forgot..sorry.
Love that double needle with the knits . Such a
nice finish..
