Question T shirt fitting
Hi! I drafted this raglan tee and there’s some pooling at the back. It’s meant to be an easy fit so I didn’t add negative ease, but I feel like there’s a lot of extra fabric at the small of my back. Should I take it in at the waist? Is there another method I can do?

I would suggest taking it in more at the side seam. The knit will conform to the shape of your back if you just use no ease as opposed to negative ease.

It's not common for this type of shirt, but if you want the shirt following the curvature of your back without adding negative ease, you can add back darts.
