Burda Style For people who sew
Description
My favourite winter jacket in the whole world is on it’s last legs. A delightfully ragged wool duffle coat (aka ‘bluey’) that is pilled, riddled with holes, has stitching that is pulling and is generally wearing thin.
Introducing its successor – my new olive green duffle coat. Made from Japanese pattern book ‘Quoi? Quoi?’ – their ‘coverall’ pattern.
Material Notes
second hand olive green wool; reclaimed wooden toggles; reclaimed leather; new cord
