About this Pattern

The Over Shirt is a classic worker wear jacket and an incredibly useful wardrobe layer. It features our favourite shirt making techniques and the possibilities for adding your own personal twist are endless (we've seen patchwork jackets, short sleeve hacks, long versions and many pocket variations). We think it's one of the most satisfying pieces to make in our range and you'll be using some really nice sewing techniques.
