Antoine
Introducing the Antoine reversible unisex jacket, a versatile addition to any wardrobe that’s perfect for transitional seasons. Whether you're transitioning from chilly mornings to warmer afternoons or gearing up for those unpredictable weather days, this stylish jacket meets your needs with ease. Designed with generous measurements, Antoine allows plenty of room for growth and freedom of movement, making it an ideal choice for children and adults alike.
The construction of the Antoine jacket is both innovative and user-friendly. Each layer of the jacket is crafted in one continuous piece: the body is worked flat from the bottom up before being sewn at the shoulders, while the set-in sleeves are worked top-down, shaped with short-rows, and completed in the round for a seamless finish. After finishing the sleeves, the elegant collar is worked last, bringing the entire garment together. Once completed, the two layers of the jacket are expertly assembled to create a stunning reversible design—two looks in one! You can choose to add pockets to one side to store all your treasures or leave them out for a sleeker aesthetic.
Notions Required: To get started on your Antoine jacket, you'll need a few essential notions. Be sure to have stitch markers (m) and stitch holders or waste yarn to keep your project organized. A tapestry needle is necessary for weaving in ends, while lockable markers and safety pins will help in securing your pieces. For the finishing touches, prepare two sets of six flat buttons, with sizes ranging from 7/8 (7/8, 1, 1, 1, 1 1/4, 1 1/4)” to ensure a perfect fit. Don’t forget sewing needles, thread, and pins for attaching the buttons and completing your jacket. Additionally, you may want to consider using a Fat Quarter of contrasting fabric for pocket lining to add a unique flair to your Antoine jacket.
