The saga of the Besharl Jacket

I have already written an extensive review of my saga with the Besharl Jacket, so I'll be brief here. I originally made it two years ago and made the mistake of making the neckband not wide enough (it has to be cut to fold in the width and I didn't notice that). It took me two years to realize, it was a bigger mistake than I thought it was. I fixed that, plus improved minor fit issues and now I've ended up making three jackets. One in stable knit (my fixed original make), one in crinkly double gauze and one in linen (seen here). Here is the link to the post with all the details plus some tutorials on how to get a nice finish inside.

Besharl Jacket

I sewed the Besharl jacket in a light wollen fabric. The jacket is comfy and not difficult to sew (once you have understood and followed the instructions ! ). In my case, adding the cuff to what corresponds to the sleeve makes it too tightly on my arm. Next time, I will probably enlarge a little bit this part and also lengthen it. Choosing a linen fabric added some difficulties to me.
When you order a pattern by the styleArc compagny you receive 3 sizes in 3 separate pdf (your size plus your up- and down-size). I appreciate that but regret that all sizes are not included in the the same document in case you need to blend sizes). The style Arc instructions are as usual very scarce, but in this case there is a tutorial for the inseam pockets, which is great.
