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 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.
