Description

This is the Elisabeth Coat with a few small changes. For my coat I added cuffs to the sleeves. Made it more fitted in the waist and left out the belt. I needed a nice warm coat for going to the city. When I saw the Elisabeth Coat I knew it would be perfect. With its high collar I knew that would keep chilly San Fran winds at bay. It is now my all the time coat.

Material Notes

The shell is 100% Italian wool. The lining is a bright and colorful Asian inspired cotton blend. I interlined it with a medium weight fleece. finished off with 1 3/4" mate black buttons.

Many thanks to Ceregana the creator of the Elisabeth Coat. I love this pattern. The way Cergana drafted the sleeves is quite nice. The fit is fantastic!

    This coat is great!!! The lining is unique and wonderful contrasting it to feel that it is seemingly obedient.

    The coat is amazing!! I like the collar, I like the cuffs and how you have fitted it perfectly. I can see why it’s your favourite… Great job!
