Olive Corduroy Jacket

This was my first attempt at this jacket. The pattern describes it as a 'lumberjack' style. It hits right at the waist.

After making it, I realized this is more of a heavy shirt than a jacket pattern, because the corduroy I used seemed a bit much for the pattern. I did make it unlined, but next time, I think Ill use a stuff linen, or a very heavy cotton.


back pleat	I do like the thin sleeves, they give a great look.
Like most patterns, the back of the neck is too high for me, and I have to cut it down, but I forgot to extend the collar pieces, and had to add about an inch patch after I had cut everything out. But it worked out alright.
