Lindsay Pattern by Cocoknits

$8.00

Lindsay is a bottom-up coat, heavy enough that she required seams around the armholes (the body is knitted seamlessly). However, I’ve written tips into the instructions to show you how English Tailoring takes the guesswork out of easing in the sleeves, thus keeping the finishing to a minimum.
