Blue boucle Petra

A review of Style Arc Petra Coat

Reviewed by smitten-kitten on 25th April, 2022

Love this coat, a subtle cocoon shape and lots of interesting details. The side seems angle forwards to the uneven hem and side slits below the large pockets (think York Pinafore) The coat has a lovely wrap/open collar that is super cosy closed and the wide sleeves allow for a chunky jumper underneath.

Size down at least one size, this coat is large! I omitted the fold upon the sleeve by removing 4 inches. My boucle fabric would have been too bulky faced and tuned up. The instructions are brief as usual, the seam order diagram helps. I read through, then did my own thing!

Mie, Sewing Like Mad has a really useful blog post about this coat, and see her review ?
