Where can I find a complete (to date) listing of the errata for the Sketchbook pattern. My envelope did not contain one, and I am wasting so much time looking here or there for answers to my questions………..

Sorry to hear you had trouble finding it. There’s a tab marked errata here: http://oliverands.com/oliver-and-s-patterns/OLV-OS018SK.html

and a wonderful tutorial from Nicole here: http://fiveandcounting-motherof5.blogspot.com/2012/04/sketchbook-shirt-tutorial-part-1.html

If neither of these helps, there’s a subforum for the Sketchbook pattern here: https://oliverands.com/forums/forum.php?id=24

Thanks!!! I love this pattern. The shorts fit so well. This is the first time I am making the shirt.

I’ve loved all the versions I’ve seen, but am in the same boat as you, I have yet to make the shirt. The style is a bit cropped, meant to be worn untucked, like in the paper doll image. If you’re looking for something a little more formal, might want to add some length. Look forward to seeing what you make!

As far as I’m aware, the errata is for the pants in sizes 5 – 12 as the first print had no seam allowance.

I’ve made this shirt many times and haven’t had a problem. I lengthen the shirt for my son to the length of a size 12 as I’m starting to make 10’s for him and he is long in the body.

What size are you making? There is a particular way to do the back facing that can be a little confusing but once you get the hang of it it is actually very straight forward and makes complete sense.

You will love the shirt too once you master the tricks to make it – truly a go to pattern for boys.

Oh I just clicked that link and I see your dilemma. You must be making this in the smaller sizes and that’s why I haven’t seen it before.
