Thanks for the comments! Hi Katherine_oj, I am really happy to hear that you love this. And it’s a truly great idea to make this jacket as a Christmas gift! Because it is easy to fit as well as to make and you can wear it either loose or compact, you don’t need to sneak behind her to know her exact size… Good luck!

Lovely! I wasn’t too keen on the sarah pattern until I saw this. And where did you find leopard print wool? It great! All I can find around here are plaids…

Hi Yoshimi, I wanted to let you know I love this jacket too. I didn’t like it until I saw your creation! I’m planning to make one for my mother-in-law for Christmas (she loves leopard print and you inspired this gift idea) and also one for myself.

Hi all! Thank you for the comments! >Olar, I used a brushed woven, printed wool. I think… it was thicker than “wool plush”, but lighter than “melton”…something between them. I hope you can imagine what I mean.
