Description
This is a PDF sewing pattern and tutorial to teach you how to create these garments. YOU WILL NOT RECEIVE ANYTHING IN THE MAIL.
The Adventure Jacket is a classic with options to keep everyone happy. The dropped shoulder/dolman sleeve gives for an easy fit that gives plenty of room for laying clothes underneath. You can create a lightweight jacket with thin silky lining or a use something warm and cozy for a warmer winter jacket. The pockets not only give a cute detail, but give extra space for treasures. The hip length offers inseam pockets to hold more essentials or give you a cozy place to tuck your hands in. Choose from a trendy crop length or a classic hip length. The elastic at the bottom brings in to hold warmth in, but keeps the boxy fit that layers over clothes easily. All options are fully lined with separate front facing pieces. This makes sure you can use a thick, even fluffy lining without worrying about it getting stuck in your zipper. Wear the jacket closed or open and see nothing but beautiful finished with the fully lined zipper. Pick from a collar or hood to top off your adventure jacket. The sleeves can be finished with elastic cuffs or knit cuffs. Enjoy several youtube videos linked in the tutorial including how to shorten a zipper, installing the zipper and a full sew up.
