Sayward Raglan Sew-along
The Sayward Raglan by Thread Theory is a versatile men's t-shirt sewing pattern designed to create timeless everyday essentials. Featuring beautifully curved raglan seams, a relaxed crew neckline and a comfortable, classic silhouette, this design combines effortless casual style with thoughtful construction details.
Choose between long or short sleeves to create a t-shirt suited to every season. The long-sleeved variation offers a classic casual look, while the short-sleeved version features sleeves ending around mid-bicep. Both styles can be made in a single fabric or with contrasting sleeves and neckline for a sporty, colour-blocked finish.
The curved raglan seams create the flattering appearance of a broader chest, while the sleeves are designed to fit neatly without clinging. The body has a comfortable, regular fit that works beautifully for everyday wear, layering and relaxed weekend outfits.
Part of Thread Theory's Parkland Casual Collection, the Sayward Raglan includes detailed illustrated instructions with beginner-friendly and intermediate techniques. With guidance for sewing knit fabrics using a regular sewing machine or serger, this pattern is an excellent choice for creating professional-looking handmade basics.

Recommended Fabrics
Choose light to medium-weight knit fabrics with at least 20% stretch.
For Beginners: Stable knit fabrics such as interlock, French terry and thicker cotton jersey are easier to sew. Cotton blends containing 6% or less spandex are generally more manageable.
For More Experienced Sewists: Lightweight jersey, ribbed knits, bamboo blends and highly stretchy athletic fabrics can create beautiful results but may require additional care during cutting and sewing.
Colour-Block Design: Choose a contrasting knit fabric for the sleeves and neckline. For a coordinated finish, consider matching or contrasting thread for hemming and topstitching.
Notions
- Matching Sewing Thread
- Stretch or Ballpoint Sewing Machine Needle
- Optional Twin Needle for Hem Finishing
- Optional Contrasting Thread for Colour-Blocked Versions

Shipping Policy
We are committed to providing reliable nationwide delivery using trusted shipping partners.
Québec and Ontario
We’ve recently updated our shipping options to give you more flexibility and competitive rates. At checkout, you can now choose from multiple carriers — including Canada Post, ICS Courrier, Canpar, Purolator, FedEx, UPS, and more.
Shipping fees are automatically calculated based on the weight of your order, with several delivery options and prices available.
If a carrier does not service your address, we may need to use an alternative option, which could incur additional charges, particularly for P.O. box addresses.
For remote or rural areas where delivery costs are higher, additional fees may apply. In these cases, we will provide proof of the shipping costs to ensure transparency.
Other Provinces in Canada, USA, and International Shipping
For customers in other Canadian provinces, the USA, or internationally, we offer a range of shipping options through various carriers. The customer is responsible for selecting their preferred shipping method at checkout.
Please note that our system provides an estimated shipping cost at checkout, which may not always reflect the actual shipping charges.
In cases of oversized orders, shipments to rural or remote areas, or delivery to P.O. boxes, the final shipping cost may differ. If this occurs, we will contact you directly with the updated shipping cost, which will be the responsibility of the customer.
Import Duties & Customs Fees (USA & International Orders)
All orders shipped outside of Canada — including to the United States — may be subject to import duties, customs fees, taxes and other charges assessed by the destination country’s customs authorities. These charges are not included in the item price or shipping cost and are the sole responsibility of the customer.
Customers agree to pay any duties, taxes, fees, or charges required by the destination country in order for customs to release the package. Failure to pay such charges may result in your order being returned or abandoned by the carrier, and no refunds will be issued for duties or unused shipping fees.
We strive to provide clear communication and ensure your shipping experience is seamless. If you have any questions or need assistance, feel free to reach out to us at: info@lestissees.com

DIGITAL PRODUCTS: NO RETURNS OR REFUNDS
All of our sewing patterns are sold as digital PDF files and are delivered instantly after purchase.

If you encounter any issues with your download link or file, feel free to contact us and we’ll be happy to assist you.
We strive for excellence in our products and customer service, but some imperfections may occur with fabric.
Please note that stains, holes, or blemishes within 3 inches (10 cm) of the edge are considered acceptable. Missing or pulled knit stitches on the wrong side of the fabric that do not distort the face are also considered acceptable. Additionally, fabric cut at 1 to 3 cm from the edge is acceptable. Stains on the inside of the fabric are also acceptable if they do not appear on the right side.
Please be aware that fabric may shrink after the first wash, so we recommend purchasing slightly more than the exact length required for your project.
We cannot cancel or refund orders once we've cut your fabric. If a refund is necessary, a 5% administration fee of your total bill will be charged.
We cannot offer refunds or compensation for items purchased a few days before they go on sale.
If a product is sold out, we'll contact you immediately to offer either a refund of the item at the price you've paid or a replacement with a product of equal value.
Please note that monitor or device settings may affect how you view product colours on our website. We cannot issue a refund if there are discrepancies between the product image and the actual colour.
