Shawl collar jacket Sewing Patterns | DRCOS Patterns & How To Make

This is a sewing pattern for a shawl collar jacket with a simple construction, where the shawl collar is sewn into the facing.

Unlike a tailored collar, this design does not require advanced tailoring techniques, making it suitable for beginners.

The pattern uses a simplified structure with decorative dummy flap pockets and no lining.

If you want to add a lining, use the facing lines as a guide to create your own lining pattern.

For a looser and more relaxed fit, you can remove the front darts to change the silhouette.

After printing, align the pages along the guide lines, tape them together, and cut out the pattern pieces. Seam allowances (S/A) are included, so the pattern is ready to use.

This shawl collar jacket pattern is suitable for casual wear, costumes, and lightweight jackets, and can be adapted to many different fabrics and styles.

(1) Apply fusible interfacing to each required part, sew the darts on the "Front Body", and press the darts down with an iron.

How to Sew Darts

(2) Make the "Flap" and attach it to the "Front Body".

* If you are making pockets, construct and attach them at this stage.

(3) Sew the "Shawl Collar" pieces together in advance, turn inside out, and press with an iron to shape.

(4) Serge the shoulders, side seams, and back center of the "Front Body" and "Back Body". Sew them together with a sewing machine, then press the seam allowances open with an iron.
