    Thanks guys :) i think this is my top im MOST proud of because i was sooo scared of getting it wrong. I wanted it just perfect for him so it would fit.

    Well i could make some but they'd cost about £20 because the fabric price it cost me about £12 just for the fabric pluss another the thread then id add about £6 for the time it took to make it..... i hope thats on ok price. I mean in the shops they cost about £35 for a really good one in a thick fabric.

    But yea sure if anyone's interested i would love to give more a go :)

    wow, that really is nice... how did you do the keyhole neck opening? I've not found a very good description of doing key hole necks yet, and I'm interested in your approach.

    Thanks!

    ok here goes. First you cut your slit in the front of the neck about 2 inches down.

    Then .....
