An A-shirt is essentially underwear. And in that capacity, you want something that is comfortable, feels nice on your skin and breaths.
|
||||
|
||||
Cotton with a hint of something stretchy, maybe rayon, or a fine knit. I suggest you go to the fabric store and feel around a bit.

|

While stretch is not required, it does make sense for underwear. That being said, you can make this in a non-stretch, just make sure pick loose or casual fit.

The easy way to keep this 1.5cm distance is by using a seam gauge.
|
||||
Or do what I do, place a piece of marking tape on your sewing machine and mark a line on it 1.5cm from your needle.
|
||||
Then all you need to do is keep the edge of your fabric aligned with that line.

To make Aaron, you will need the following:
|

|

- [Basic sewing supplies](/docs/sewing/basic-sewing-supplies)
|
||||
- About 0.75 meters (0.8 yards) of a suitable fabric ([see Fabric options](/docs/designs/aaron/fabric))

#### A serger/overlock is nice, but optional
|
||||
|
||||
As with all knitwear and stretch fabrics, a serger/overlock will make your life easier.
|
||||
|
||||
If you do not have one of those, don't despair. You don't really need it.
|
||||
Because these side seams and shoulder seams won't get stretched out, you can just sew them with a regular straight stitch.

Aaron is -- like most patterns I design -- born out of necessity. I needed an
|
||||
A-shirt to wear under shirts when it gets a bit colder, and I try to only wear
|
||||
clothes made from FreeSewing patterns, so Aaron was born.
|
||||
|
||||
Aaron's been around for many years and has been made by several people, so you
|
||||
can consider this a staple of FreeSewing's design catalogue.
|
||||
|
||||
On it's own, it's a rather straight-forward design. It extends [the Brian
|

block](/designs/brian) and has an array of options to tweak the outcome,
|
||||
|
||||
There's a few things that are *special* about Aaron, FreeSewing trivia if you will:
|
||||
|
||||
- Aaron is what I refer designers to when they have questions on how to do something. It's always first in the list (because it starts with double A), always the first to get new features, be migrated to a new version, and so on. Aaron is sort of FreeSewing's canary design. Everything that happens happens to Aaron first.
|
||||
- I named this design `aaron` in memory of [Aaron Swartz](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aaron_Swartz). Rest in peace brother.
