I made a short sleeved jacket with a scarf

I made a short sleeved jacket with a hand-woven scarf.

♦ Below is the illustration of  the red jacket (photo above).

♦ Below is its pattern (this is a symmetrical pattern).

1. I used the 30″ x 58″ rectangular fabric piece.
2. I marked the white lines with a chalk and cut them to open the arm holes.
3. I folded each side of the fabric along the white line, and stitched together the 9-inch shoulder lines of the front and back bodice.
4. I treated the cut ends around the arm holes with bias tape.

<Size of this jacket>

• If you would like to make a longer/extra large jacket, you may use a longer scarf and use the pattern below.

I made this purple jacket using a 30″ X 70″ scarf.

If you like to make the sleeves a bit longer you just need two more pieces of rectangular fabrics.  I made a fleece jacket (the photo below) and put sleeves (5″ x 24″) on it.  The sleeves get 5 inches longer.
