Ottoline Jacket size 6-18, Merchant & Mills

Pattern The Ottoline

• SKU: 680409

• "The Ottoline is a boxy workwear jacket with cuff and side seam splits and inside pocket. Although a lovely design detail the vents are a little tricky, so we have included instructions to simplify Ottoline by excluding the side seams and sleeve vents if you like. We have found that a heavy duty thread rather than a topstitch thread gives a more authentic look to the topstitching and is easier to use. You may find you get a better stitch using a matching ‘sew all’ thread in the bobbin."

• Sewing Level: Experienced, but not doing the slits on the hip or sleeves would make it a more intermediate level.

• Sizes: UK 6-18; 1.5cm seam allowance is included in the pattern unless otherwise stated. 

• Recommended Fabric: 8-12.5oz non stretch denim, medium weight cotton drill or canvas, dry oilskin, linen and corduroy. 

• Notions: 

  - Matching thread 

  - 5 x buttons approx. 22mm (7 if you are doing buttons at the cuff)

  - Contrast topstitch thread optional
