• 📂 Digital PDF pattern only — This listing is for a downloadable crochet pattern, not a finished physical shirt. No yarn, hook, buttons, printed copy, or completed garment is included. You will use the PDF instructions to crochet your own Coastal Navy Stripe Men’s Camp Shirt at home.

• 👕 Design features — The finished shirt has a relaxed boxy fit, short sleeves, open camp collar, cream front plackets, lower hem edging, sleeve cuff edging, wooden button front, and a navy-and-cream vertical stripe texture that gives the shirt a clean coastal summer look.

• 🧵 Construction method — The shirt is made from flat crochet pieces: one back panel, left front panel, right front panel, and two short sleeve panels. After blocking, the pieces are seamed, sleeves are attached, cream front plackets are worked, buttonholes are added, buttons are sewn on, and the camp collar is finished.

• 📏 Sizes included — Pattern includes XS, S, M, L, XL, 2XL, and 3XL. Finished chest measurements range from approximately 40 in to 64 in, with positive ease for a comfortable relaxed men’s summer shirt fit.

• 🧶 Yarn and materials — Recommended yarn is DK / Light #3 in breathable warm-weather fibers such as cotton-bamboo, cotton-linen, cotton-acrylic, or soft 100% cotton. Color A is cream / warm ivory, and Color B is deep navy.

• 🪡 Skill level — Intermediate. You should be comfortable working flat crochet garment panels, maintaining blocked gauge, changing colors cleanly, following size-specific measurements, seaming crochet fabric, making buttonholes, and shaping a relaxed camp collar.

• 📐 Gauge guidance — Blocked gauge in the main stripe fabric is 16 stitch positions and 8 rows = 4 in / 10 cm. A stitch position may be a double crochet, chain-1 space, raised border stitch, or mesh position, so careful counting is important.

• 🌿 Stripe texture — The main fabric uses a 16-position vertical stripe repeat with cream lace separator columns, raised cream border lines, and wider navy breathable mesh stripe panels. This creates a lightweight crochet shirt with structure, airflow, and visual depth.

• 🔘 Button front details — The front placket works as both a stabilizing band and a button-band overlap. Button counts vary by size, with approximately 18–22 mm wooden buttons recommended for a natural coastal finish.

• 🏖️ Styling ideas — Wear it over a tank, linen trousers, beach shorts, swimwear, casual summer pants, or resort basics. The navy and cream palette makes it easy to style for beach vacations, warm-weather events, handmade menswear looks, and relaxed coastal outfits.

• 💡 Important fit note — Measurements are taken after blocking. Cotton and plant-based yarns may grow or relax after blocking, so the PDF emphasizes making a blocked swatch, blocking flat pieces to size, and checking the final chest with the plackets overlapped.

• ❌ Please note — This is a crochet PDF pattern for personal use. It is not a physical shirt and no finished item will be shipped.

Happy crocheting and enjoy creating your own coastal navy stripe men’s camp shirt! 🌴✨
