I am Merlin, a lapel coat to brave the cold. I have enough ease to wear a warm sweater underneath. You close me with one button at hip level with an option to add another button a few inches above. I have tailored two-piece sleeves, welt pockets and I am fully lined. Level: Intermediate Sizes: PDF : 34 to 52 – Paper : 36 to 46 Seam allowances: Included Collection: I AM Magic PAPER PATTERN All seam allowances are included in the pattern. The pattern is enclosed in an envelope. It contains the sewing pattern along with a step-by-step illustrated explanation guide. The different pieces overlap with each other so you will need to trace the pattern on paper. If you prefer a ready-to-cut pattern, try the pdf version as pieces do not overlap with each other.
