Burda Style For people who sew
Description
I came across this tutorial on Pinterest and thought i’d try it out with some knit fabric i’ve had in the stash for ages. My fabric was about 150cm wide, much shorter than asked for in the tutorial but it seems to have worked fine, it’s just a little shorter (but so am i!).
It’s great for chilly nights and i’d like to give this a go in a jersey.

I prefer this shorter version compared to the one in the tutorial, plus i’m a sucker for stripes! Great Jacket!

What a fantastic jacket. I need to look through my stash and make this one!

I would love to make a bunch of those! I looked at the directions and I am so confused. Guess I just have to get some fabric and try it. Yours looks great!

This is really cool! I read the instructions, and I think it might take me more than 30 mins :)

ohhh this is tempting! i may have 30 mins to spare tomorrow….hmmm!!! like the stripey fabric. i actually like it shorter alot more. the longer one on the tute probably wouldnt have caught my eye like yours did!
