I should have also told you...50/50 teeshirts are the absolute worst thing to 
embroider on because the fabric is so thin, uneven, lightweight, pulls, needle 
holes show, etc. You can easily end up with 3 layers of backing before the 
sewing looks good-and then you can see the 'patch' of the underlayment. Unless 
you are going on super heavyweight premium shirts-over 8 oz-the lighter shirts 
just aren't for embroidery.
For polo shirts-a good quality 'pique' knit is preferable but use solvy on top 
to keep the thread up above the weave.
A 'jersey' knit polo is nothing more than a teeshirt with a collar!
