Faux Shearling Snap Jacket

When To Wear

As an outer layer in autumn and mild winter, over sweaters and jeans.
Over a dress or a skirt and knit top on cold days.

Key Design Features

Silhouette: Close-fitting through the body, shaped by front seams and a centre back seam.

Length: Hip.

Collar: Wide single-layer collar, its ends and outer edge left raw with no allowance, attached together with the front edge.

Front: Upper and lower fronts joined by a shaping seam; the right and left lower fronts are cut differently, giving an asymmetric, off-centre front edge. The 4.5 cm front edge allowance is folded to the right side and topstitched, forming a band of pile along the edge.

Closure: Three snaps.

Sleeves: Two-piece set-in sleeves; the lower edge is turned to the right side to form a cuff.

Back: Centre back seam.

Finishing: Seams pressed open and topstitched 0.5–0.7 cm on both sides; hem allowance 4.5 cm, turned and topstitched. Unlined.

Level Of Difficulty

Intermediate. Handling bulky pile fabric, open seams topstitched on both sides, and a front edge and collar finished in one step without a facing.

Fabric Recommendations

Faux shearling with short or medium pile.

Additional Supplies

Cutter's Must

If the patterns have a double contour, seam allowances are included. If the contour is single, the patterns are without seam allowances. Seam allowances: Allowance along the front edge, garment hem - 4.5 cm. Allowance along the sleeve hem, collar ends and outer edge – 0 cm. Other allowances - 1.5 cm. Attention! First, print out the paper patterns and lay them out on the fabric width (fabric width can be from 90 cm to 150 cm) to determine how much material you will need (do not forget to account for paired and symmetrical pieces).

From main fabric:
- Upper front – 2 pieces
- Lower right front – 1 piece
- Lower left front – 1 piece
- Back – 2 pieces
- Collar - 1 piece
- Upper sleeve - 2 pieces
- Lower sleeve – 2 pieces
