#but i can't finish the sleeves until she tries it on

I made a thing!

Its a (poly) shearling-lined wool coat with a giant hood, made as a christmas gift for my mother.

For being one of the first large-scale garment projects I’ve done, I’m pretty happy with it! While the finished edge is bulkier than intended and impacts the lapels’ drape in a way I’m not thrilled with, it is SO COZY OMG

Pattern is from here
