Simple to pop on and comfortable to wear, Amanda Walker’s capelet will add a touch of class to any outfit. The flattering double-breasted design is made in an on-trend check, along with a contrast collar and button detail. Although the garment is one size and will fit most frames, the pattern can always be lengthened to sit better on a larger figure.

1 Download and print the pattern. Cut out the pattern pieces as indicated in the cutting guide. Attach interfacing to the wrong side of the two front facing panels. Iron interfacing to the back of the fabric collar and with the right side of the fabric and the lining facing, pin and stitch around the outer edges with a 1cm seam allowance. Trim away the bulk from the corners and turn the collar out to the right side. Tease out the corners and press. If you are using faux fur for the collar, press the edges from the lining side instead as the iron may mark the main fabric.
