#HAPPYSEWING

-> how much fabric do you need?

1,5 -2 m (1,7-2yds) @ 160 cm (63″)

you will need around 1,5m of fabric for a short sleeve version and around 2m for a long sleeve laguna shirt. For the largest sizes I recommend wide fabrics of around 160 cm (60″-63″) for the smaller sizes you can get away with less width!
