After at least 15 years, the shirt is finished. I think I was working on it when Aged Dad started going back and forth to the hospital in 2019 and had to set it aside. Anyway, yay, I guess.

Elizabethan shirt, using the Folkwear poet's shirt pattern as a base. White cotton fabric, cross-stitch fabric collar and cuffs, crocheted lace trim (#12 perle cotton), Holbein stitch embroidery (cotton embroidery floss), vintage Battersea buttons, lucetted cord collar ties (size 20 crochet cotton).

The shirt:

Collar with box-pleated ruff with crocheted lace trim and neck slash with needlelace godet insert (from the Folkwear Missouri steamboat shirt, and because the slash is always too deep on me)

Closeup of cuff with gathered ruffle and crocheted lace trim and button

Closeup of godet, inexpertly worked in needlelace
