Merchant and Mills Barka (Paper Pattern)

A simple dog coat for your furry friend. Make it bagged out with lining or lined with bound edges. 10% of sales for this pattern will be going to Dogs Trust UK.

Seam allowance is 1cm, unless stated otherwise. Skill level – advanced beginner.

Note:

For both views, and how to measure your dog, please look at the line drawings in our gallery.

Fabric suggestions – Oilskin, dry oilskin, cotton jacquard, mid – heavy cotton canvas or twill, mid weight denim or corduroy. For the lining we would suggest barrier lining or a simple stable cotton. Consider if you will want to put this dog coat in the washing machine when choosing cloth – for example oilskin cannot be washed – you would let the dirt dry and then brush it off.

*Please note we have now changed pattern printers. Our patterns are now printed within Europe, the pattern paper is 70gsm white (FSC® certified) and is made only 180km away from the printers. Our instructions now come in booklet format rather than A3 sheets. The paper is PEFC/01-31-126 certified.
