Description
The Hot Toddy Coat is a luxurious, fashion forward “duster” style coat. This lovely coat has a relaxed shape, minimalist lines, and is perfect for statement fabrics. Designed to be worn open or with a belt, there are no fussy buttons or zippers to fret about. This pattern is a great introduction to outerwear.
Note that this is a pared-back sewing pattern designed for beginner to intermediate sewers, hence there are no shoulder pads, bagged out linings or other extraneous features.
Skill Level These instructions are aimed at novice to intermediate sewers. Absolute beginners may find the set-in sleeve to be challenging, but otherwise it is all quite simple.
