The Glenn pattern is a basic shirt with a hem that tapers towards the back. The contrasting hem trim makes it easy to layer. The large round neckline and 3/4-length sleeves are perfect for summer temperatures, and it's also the perfect shirt to wear under a cardigan.
Length at the back center = 64 - 70 cm.
In this tutorial, Glenn was sewn from a soft jersey.
We recommend a soft jersey and a polyester chiffon in a contrasting color.

Cutting:
Seam allowances are included - 1cm wide or as per marking clips!
Cut out the pattern pieces from your outer fabrics. Lay the fabric right side up. Place the selvedges parallel to the center so that you can place the front, back, and front and back strips on the fold. The pattern pieces should all be laid with the writing facing up. Always align the grain arrow on all pieces in the same direction and parallel to the selvedge of the fabric. Transfer all notches from the pattern by making a 3mm long slit with scissors or chalk and mark the ends of the darts. Note that bust darts must be used for larger sizes and larger. Notch the seam allowance on the fold, as this is always the center. Marks define the positions of dart ends, pocket positions, and much more. Transfer these either with chalk or pins. 
You will need fabric:
- 1x back part in the fracture
- 1x front part in the fracture
- 1x front stripe in the fracture
- 1x posterior stripe in the fracture
- 2x sleeves opposite
- 1x strip
Sewing instructions:
Seam allowances are included - 1cm wide or as per marking clips!
To sew this shirt you will need a sewing machine and an overlock sewing machine, or alternatively the zigzag stitch on your sewing machine to neaten the cut edges.
Be sure to use a jersey needle and a stretchy stitch. This means that if you're using a home sewing machine, you should use either a zigzag stitch or a three-part stretch stitch. Then, finish all seam allowances with a zigzag stitch or another similar stitch to prevent fraying. The colored lines in the images show you, in addition to the description, where a seam needs to be sewn or glued.
When sewing, pay attention to the seam allowance included in the pattern. Seam allowances not specifically marked are 1cm wide!
Have fun sewing!
Sizes 42-50 have a bust dart; please sew this according to the pattern.
Place the front piece, right sides together, on the back piece and sew the shoulder seams together. Neaten the seam allowances together and press them back. 
Sew the sleeves into the corresponding armholes. Use the notches on the front to determine which sleeve should be sewn where. The seam allowances are neatened together and pressed into the sleeve. 
Next, close the inner arm and side seams in one go. Neaten the seam allowances together and press them into the back piece. 
Neaten the sleeve hems and press them inward by 2 cm. At 1.5 cm, stitch the hems to the outer fabric and iron flat. 
Next, we'll move on to the neckline. First, iron the neckline facing, wrong sides together, with the fold folded. Now, sew the short section of the strip together, right sides together, to create a ring (fold the strip back open to do this). 
Sew the two raw edges of the strip, right sides together, to the neckline. I placed the seam of the strip on top of the left shoulder seam here. Also, topstitch the seam allowances flat, close to the edge. 
Sew the two front and back facings together along the bottom edge, right sides together. Trim the seam allowances slightly along the curves and turn the facings right side out. Iron the edges flat. 
Finally, you need to sew the facings with the raw edge to the hem of the top. Neaten the seam allowances together and press them upwards into the top. 
Finally, from the right side, stitch the seam allowance flat, close to the edge of the seam.
