Well I was not so keen on checks but wool was so soft and not itchy at all so i took the chance.
I used very simple cut and main focus was on a scarf detail
Also I did not want any top stitching seams on this soft fabric as it would look cheap so all the finishing is done by hand and snaps instead of regular buttons.
I am so addicted to natural fibers fabrics that rarely use any polyester, just wool, silk, viscose, or linen.
This jacket is no exception. To finish edges I used silk jacquard stripes cut on bias (binding), and all edges finished by hand sewing as well as pockets attached by hand swing.
In fact there's no visible stitching on the pretty side, all blind stitched.
