(For the PDF version: once you've purchased, you'll get the download link sent straight to your email.)
The instructions are in English and French.
Immerse yourself in an oasis of elegance with the Mirage jacket! As so often, I've played with clean lines to reinvent the essential denim jacket. This pattern gives you the opportunity to create a piece that defies the desert of sartorial monotony!
But that's not all! The Mirage jacket lives up to its name by being incredibly functional with its trompe-l'œil pockets. There are two patch pockets with flaps, perfect for your daily essentials. And just underneath are invisible pockets for your sweet hands, for example, for a total of 4 pockets!
In terms of fit, the Mirage jacket has low, slightly tightened sleeves, a straight cut, and falls just above the hips.
Finally, this pattern will give you the opportunity to see or review a number of technical points. For example, you'll learn how to sew topstitching, sleeve plackets, tabs or a collar.
