Sew Over It Jessie Coatigan

Buy the Jessie Coatigan sewing pattern from Sew Over It. The Jessie Coatigan is a warm, unlined jacket, perfect for autumn and spring weather. Depending on your fabric choice, Jessie can be worn as outerwear or as a cosy top layer around the house. Try a smart melton wool for a 60s-inspired jacket, or a cosy knit for snuggling up at home.

Jessie has a swing shape with a shawl collar, drop shoulder sleeves and nice deep pockets. The raw edges at the centre front are finished with a wide facing to keep the seams hidden. A nice quick make, the Jessie Coatigan has no closures, but can be wrapped closed and secured with a belt if you prefer. The hem of the coatigan hits mid-thigh, while the sleeves can be folded up to bracelet length thanks to a deep facing or left longer.

Note: Use the Jessie Coatigan Add-on Lining (sold separately) to line Jessie and make a fully-formed coat!
