Berry Wool Coat

Pattern: The Strand by Merchant & Mills

Fabric: Berry Coulis (100% wool) - overstock fabric from Merchant & Mills

Size: 14

This pattern was designed for a lighter weight fabric like linen, but it sewed up beautifully in wool and works well as an unlined jacket. I modified it by removing the small pockets at the waist seam and shortening the length. I kept the side pockets and sewed the linings from a silk noil fabric in my stash.
