I am a huge fan of Oliver & S patterns and this is why I stock them, the instructions are clear and walk you through every step of the process

 

View A includes one-piece collar, long sleeves with cuffs, and chest pocket. View B has band collar and short sleeves.

Both styles include button front placket and shirt-tail hem. Below-the-knee length elastic-waist shorts include front pockets and mock fly.
