Copenhagen Coat

Regular price £12.00

The Copenhagen Coat is an un-lined, knee-length easy-fit coat perfect for Autumn/Spring. The coat is designed with roomy patch pockets, one statement button and a pinked edge. There is the option for either a classic collar or a hood. Great for a first coat project, or if you need a stylish new look for the weekend.

Why not complete the look with a matching Copenhagen Hat? Click here to check out our bundle offer to get both patterns for £15!

FIT
A generous fit, with room to wear over a sweater.   

VARIATIONS
The pattern is designed to be knee-length but it would work just as well as a 3/4 length jacket, mid-calf coat or floor-sweeper!

LEVEL
A coat might seem like a big project but in fact coat-weight fabrics are surprisingly easy to work with and because there is a generous ease they are not difficult to fit. Have a go!

FABRIC
Choose a double-faced fabric that doesn't fray as you will see both sides. Examples are boiled wool, felt-type wools, Melton wool, Doeskin, bonded fabrics, faux-suede or leather (for the more experienced you could easily patch together some skins for the real deal).

FOR THE COLLAR VERSION: 
You will need 2.4m/2 5/8 yards of fabric, at least 140cm/56" wide.

FOR THE HOOD VERSION: 
You will need 2.7m/3 yards of fabric, at least 140cm/56" wide. 

We used a Melton wool from AW Hainsworth - read more about it here

HABERDASHERY
x1 nice big button for the collar version, x3 buttons for the hood version.

OPTIONAL: 50cm/20" double-sided iron-on tape for the back vent, a coat hanging chain.

TOOLS

We like to cut this coat out using pinking shears (or a rotary cutter with a pinking blade) for a decorative raw edge. Alternatively you can just go for a straight raw edge, or a decorative stitch or binding.  

SIZE RANGE 
UK 6-22 (Please see our Size Chart page for more information.)

1x Instructions pour le patron

3x Patrons dans les formats A0, A4 et US Letter  

*Lisez attentivement les instructions qui suivent avant d’imprimer votre patron !*

POUR LES FORMATS A4 / US LETTER : il est indispensable d’imprimer votre patron à 100%, sinon la taille ne sera pas correcte. Vos paramètres d'impression doivent être "pleine échelle" "100%", "taille réelle" ou un paramètre équivalent selon votre logiciel d'impression.

Il y a deux carrés de test sur la première page de chaque patron : un carré de 5 cm et un carré de 2 pouces. N'imprimez d'abord que cette page et vérifiez que votre carré est bien à la bonne taille, avant d'imprimer le reste du patron.

POUR LE FORMAT A0 : suivez les instructions données par votre imprimeur. Des services sont également disponibles en ligne.
