I’m not sure what I think of the V-shaped welt pockets, to be honest (it’d be easier to assess if there were any other photos of these where she was standing!), but there are extra illustrations in the instructions to sew them, at least. But I mostly scanned this page because of the trousers – they’re a great, tapered shape with a “crease” topstitched down the front legs and ankle zippers, too. I’m not a fan of the over-the-shoulder look at all, so I’d probably cut down the width of the collar and just finish it with a band instead. Take off the nearly-rectangular cowl neck collar and you’ve got a pretty standard raglan, long-sleeved tee, which is a great basic to have in your arsenal. It’s secured with snaps concealed inside a front placket, and you’ve got some deep pockets in the front seams, too. I love the wide, dolman sleeves, the angular seaming, and the overall cocoon shape here.

gorgeousness! Are you ready for, what’s in my humble opinion, the best Burda issue of the year, or possibly even the past few years? Seriously, there are SO many patterns in here that I want to make immediately that I can hardly stand it! In my eyes, I’d have to go back to the Japanese-style feature in June 2014 to find as many designs I’m utterly crazy about! But don’t take my word for it – let’s show you some of my picks!įirst up is a structured, unlined coat for heavy jerseys like scuba.
