We couldn't be happier to carry this new line!

The Newcastle Cardigan is slim fitting with cozy long cuff sleeves. Pick your favorite knit and whip this up in no time! There are options provided for customizable details, like contrasting yoke and shoulder, shawl collar, and decorative stitching.



Jedediah Pants offers a slim fit chino-style pant with two length options. With spring around the corner we have some amazing cotton and linen in stock for a light weight trouser short!



Strathcona Henley... this pattern is a staple for every man. A light to medium weight knit would work perfectly for a casual slim-fit. Helpful tips for sewing with knits are included to make stitching this up a cinch for first-time jersey sewers.. 



Can't wait to see our stylish Denver men sporting these new patterns!

New! Bamboo Knit Jersey!

New at Fancy Tiger Crafts--bamboo jersey! We are so excited about sewing with jersey. This silky and stretchy bamboo fabric is naturally antibacterial, unbelievably soft and perfect for making your own tees or supersoft undies.

If you've never sewn with jersey before we have a great book with patterns and tips to get you going. Sew U Home Stretch by Wendy Mullin is a great intro to working with stretchy knits and includes customizable patterns for tees, tops, hoodies and dresses.


Emily already made this super adorable t-shirt! She made a pattern out of one of her favorite t-shirts and now she has another favorite bamboo t-shirt! So cute!
