Description
Every wardrobe should include a cosy coat, and this pattern for an expansive, low-calf length Overcoat is the ideal choice. Its straightforward, unlined design, featuring built-in sleeves with a dolman-like style and a unified front placket, ensures a speedy and hassle-free sewing experience. The generous fit of this coat accommodates layering over bulky winter attire while maintaining a stylish appearance.
The collar offers versatility, as it can be fastened for a warm stand-up look or laid flat for a more casual vibe. The substantial front placket allows for buttoning in either direction, offering the option to use eye-catching novelty buttons or a more understated choice. You can also opt for sizeable snaps or even button-and-loop closures or frogs for a unique touch.
The wide sleeves extend almost to the wrists, terminating in a broad and deep cuff. For an intriguing or dramatic flair, consider crafting the cuff and/or collar from contrasting fabric or even luxurious fur. The capacious pockets are not only a practical addition but also an opportunity for decorative embellishments or the use of contrasting fabric, adding an extra layer of charm to your Overcoat.
Recommended Fabric
Mid weight fabrics such as, cotton twill, heavy weight linen, silk noil or dupioni, wool, or a sturdy knit. Also, heavy weight fabrics such as wool, denim, or canvas.
