Mesh Button Up

The mesh button up crochet pattern is a structured, lightweight button up shirt. The shirt is constructed in panels and then sleeves, collar and button band are added after seaming. The pattern includes 9 sizes as well as made to measure instructions. This pattern is appropriate for an intermediate-advanced crocheter. For a more beginner crocheter interested in this look, I would recommend starting with my free mesh tank pattern: https://youtu.be/gy82EIFp0zg?si=h5cuxVLHjF7PAveg Gauge: 6 stitches (mesh) x 12 rows over 4 x 4 inches / 20 stitches (fsc) x 12 rows over 4 x 4 inches.
