The Cascade Duffle Coat is a fresh take on a classic shape featuring a slight A-line cut, toggle front closure, and a hidden zipper band to keep the coat shut tight against cold weather. The hem of View A hits at the hip while View B falls to mid-thigh. Although View A is shown with a collar and View B with a hood, both are interchangeable allowing you to create your own perfect coat.
Techniques involved include sewing a straight seam, setting sleeves, attaching a collar or hood, and inserting a lining.
Suggested Fabrics Medium to heavy weight coating fabrics such as melton, boiled, or felted wool. It can alternately be made up in a canvas or twill for a lighter weight jacket. Recommended lining is rayon bemberg, Kasha, or a similar lining fabric. If you’d like a pop of color or pattern try cutting your hood lining and zipper bands from flannel. Extra fabric may be needed to match plaids, stripes, or one-way design prints.
Size Range Includes sizes 0 - 18 (bust sizes 32" - 44").
