    I hear ya! I love making guys clothes but the pattern companies almost never make anything for them

    My suggestion to you is

    Scout the op shops for old patterns, you might be lucky and find a mens one, I have found a few. One was for a cool 70's style raglan sleeve jumper and tshirt, how rad is that!?

    Find old clothes you like the shape of in that erhaps are in the wrong colour, pull em apart with a seam ripper and make patters from them.

    Remember you can always buy straigt leg pants patterns and change the flare on them.

    Hope this is some help

    Happy stiching!
