Pattern: Rocking Horse Farm #152 "Banyan & Cap 18th century" (First time use)
Fabrics: 100% cotton outer fabric, deep red with scrollwork patterns in gold, dark brown. 100% cotton lining, white with block print scroll pattern. Front, cuffs, and collar facing done in silk/rayon blend velvet, emerald green. Cap done in all the same fabrics.
Measurements:
- I made the pattern size Large, marked as a 40-42" (101-107cm) chest. Still quite comfortable up to a 44"(112cm), however.
- The sleeves are overlong, nearly 38"(96cm) from the neck, intended to be rucked up or folded up at the cuffs as I have done. The velvet facing is very deep and the cuffs can be folded up more than twice as deep as shown in the images, if needed.
- The full length at the back, from collar seam to hem, is 59.5" (151cm)
- The cap comes in only one size, and came out to comfortably fit a 22.5"(57.15cm) head, with wiggle room
