The Cascade Duffle Coat is a fresh take on a classic shape featuring a slight A-Line cut, toggle front closure, and a hidden zipper band to keep the coat shut tight against cold weather. The hem of View A hits at the hip while View B's falls to mid-thigh. Although View A is shown with a collar and View B with a hood, both are interchangeable, allowing you to create your own perfect coat. Techniques involved include sewing a straight seam, setting sleeves, attaching a collar or hood, and inserting a lining. Pattern is nested to faciliate cutting between sizes if needed. Suggested Fabrics: Medium to heavy weight coating fabrics such as melton, boiled or felted wool. View A can alternately be made up in canvas or twill for a lighter weight jacket. Recommended lining is rayon bemberg or a similar fabric. If you'd like a pop of color or pattern, try cutting your hood lining and zipper bands from flannel. Sizes 0-18. Advanced.
