Upcycled Full Length Sweater Coat with Hood and Waist Ties

The jumpers for this full length coat have been carefully selected to create a bright and cheerful garment. I have used a purple wool jumper for the bodice of the coat, and different stripped wool jumpers for the skirt. There is a long hood, waist ties, and zip up front. The photos show the coat on a size 10-12 mannequin. Dimensions are:- Chest - 39” Waist -39” Length nape to hem - 46” Length nape to waist -16” Hood length - 45” Underarm sleeve seam length - 21.5” Wrist circumference - 9.5" 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, they are very versatile and have a variable fit, and have some give, so this coat will fit many sizes. I can provide further measurements if required. This fantastic up-cycled coat is created from 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.
