I love to create unique wearable art, and recycling generates ample materials to be reinvented into new and fantastic creations.
Thanks to Katwise for the design of these amazing elf-style coats and I hope you like my interpretation of this fantastic idea.

Full description

The jumpers for this knee length coat have been carefully selected in autumnal colours of red, brown, purple and green. There is a long hood, waist ties, neck ties and 5 wooden flower buttons. I have also stitched a decorative patch pocket to the front of the coat.

The photos show the coat on a size 10-12 mannequin. Dimensions are:-

Chest - 46”

Waist -42”

Length nape to hem - 34”

Length Waist to hem - 20”

Hood length - 37”

Underarm sleeve seam length - 21”

Wrist circumference - 9"

Upper arm circumference - 13"

All measurements have been made with the coat laid out flat.

The waist ties can be used to pull in the coat for a tighter fit. Due to the up-cycled nature of these coats, and their weight, they are very versatile and have a variable fit, and do stretch, so this coat will fit many sizes. I can provide further measurements if required.

This fantastic up-cycled coat is created from acrylic and wool jumpers. These are previously loved and recycled jumpers, that I have washed in a hot temperature. I have then cut and re-stitched the jumpers, with all seams being professionally finished with a serger/over-locker, to create this fabulous coat. The button bands have been reinforced with interfacing.

I would suggest to hand washing your coat in cool water and dry flat.
