A handsome garment

Generally a good pattern which I altered to fit my 6ft 4” husband.  I added 6” to the overall length and squared off the hem, so outer, facings and lining pieces all needed to be recut.  I made it from some pure wool tweed and lined it with some very ancient Liberty Tana lawn that I had sitting in a drawer.  He is very happy.  I plan to make another one with a round neck some time in the future.
