Nice, getting the panels symmetrical is key. For me, trying out a pattern was night and day for understanding some steps, like a double layed yoke. Take a look at https://shop.fehrtrade.com/collections/digital-sewing-patterns/products/surf-to-summit-top-mens
Best cycling pattern I've come across.
Did my first 'garment'. Took apart an old oversized t-shirt and put it back together slightly better fitting in the shoulders but a lot shoddier overall. I did get a feel for the construction though, I'm now waiting for more suitable thread and needles and some jersey fabric to do another one. The goal is to make a friend of mine a cycling jersey, he's about as lanky as I am so can't find anything that fits. Cheap fabrics and zips for now, but who knows what the future holds.
