This style of jacket was originated by the Duke of Norfolk as a more practical garment to wear
while on shoot parties.Today while shooting weekends are out of fashion, this style remains
popular for that country look. Traditionally made of tweed fabrics, you can also make it from a
wide range of cloth including wool fabric (including Melton, coating weight, herringbone etc)
corduroy, denim or lighter fabrics like linen and cotton for a summer garment.
The pattern comes with four external pockets, front and back yokes, two piece sleeves, double
box pleats to the back and a half belt. You could add elbow patches, use leather football buttons
or contrast fabrics for the yokes and pocket flaps.
This jacket can be made either lined or unlined. If unlined, then consider overlocking the raw
edges either before you start or as you go along.
Seam allowance 1cm unless stated RST = Right Sides Together
Size range - If you are between sizes then choose the large one as it is much easier to make it
smaller than to try and make it bigger
To fit chest Finished chest size
34” 40”
38” 44”
42” 48”
46” 52”
50” 56”
54” 60”
Interfacing - I recommend Vlieseline G770 to fuse the front parts and small pieces such as the
collar, pocket flaps and facing. To add extra structure to the upper sleeve heads cut a piece of
Vlieseline G700 to match, about 2 inch (5cm) deep. To add support to the hem, neck and front
edges use fusible seam tape also from Vlieseline. This will prevent stretching out and make edges
look crisp
