Cashmerette Club: Meet the Haskell Shirt, the Club Pattern for April!


Meet the Haskell Shirt, the relaxed fit button-up of your dreams, featuring a camp-style collar and curve-friendly bust darts.

For a look that’s both laid back and polished, this month’s Cashmerette Club pattern is the versatile, super-comfortable shirt you need. Get it for as little as $9 USD when you join the Club today.

Camp collar shirts are the ultimate casual button-ups, but if you have big boobs and curves, it can be really hard (or even impossible) to find a gape-free button-up that’s actually comfortable to wear. Well, good news! You can now say goodbye to gaping buttons and uncomfortable pulling with the new Haskell Shirt, which we’ve designed specifically for curves for comfort, style, and confidence with every wear. No more safety pins, tugging, checking, or worrying!

The Haskell comes in sizes 0-32 and cup sizes C-H and is available exclusively to Cashmerette Club members. Not a member yet? Join today for as little as $9 (cancel anytime).

Meet the Haskell Shirt

For a look that’s both laid back and polished, the Haskell features:

  • Relaxed fit with a camp-style collar
  • Curve-friendly bust darts for fabulous shaping
  • A stylish wide yoke that peeks in the front
  • Grown-on sleeves that are finished with cuffs
  • Fashionable curved hem
  • Optional breast pockets for form or function

The Haskell is rated advanced beginner, and you can sew your first Haskell with ease thanks to our free step-by-step video sewalong, hosted by Whitney of TomKat Stitchery.

The Haskell is designed for lightweight woven fabrics with a lot of drape, such as cotton lawn, cotton gauze, cotton voile, rayon, linen, or silk.

Rachel is wearing a Haskell Shirt in coral linen, generously gifted by our friends at Core Fabrics, Carrie is wearing a Haskell in 100% recycled cotton striped blend, also gifted from Core Fabrics and the Haskell in a plaid cotton, and Aimee is wearing a Haskell in an Elysian menagerie cotton voile.

Want to get the look? Core Fabrics is offering six Haskell kits in their European linen and recycled cotton fabrics. Skip the hassle of sourcing all the fabric and notions and treat yourself to an all-in-one Haskell kit!

Also New in the Club this Month: Masterclass & Live Event

Club members in the Plus and All Access tiers get a new fitting masterclass every month! This month, Jenny’s finally answering that much-asked question: can I add/remove sleeves? Every time we release a pattern, we get loads of sewists asking if they can add sleeves (for sleeveless garments) or make it without sleeves (for sleeved garments). So if you have a pattern you’ve been dying to make, but you don’t love the sleeve option it comes with, Jenny’s got you covered—or uncovered!

Plus and All Access members also get access to this month’s live event. This month, Jenny is picking up the pace and talking all about speedy sewing! Whether you want to be able to create more garments in the time that you have, or want shortcuts for your least favorite sewing steps, Jenny’s here to share her tips for a faster, more efficient sew.

Head to the Club dashboard to learn more and register to attend. Can’t make it live? This event will be recorded and shared with members afterward.
