Sanda Jacket Hack for Thicker Woollens
Sanda Jacket Hack for Thicker Woollens

We chose to make a Sanda jacket in our luxurious thick alpaca in a slightly longer length. For this hack you will need to buy the Sanda pattern here.

Above, Sacha is wearing the Sanda in our Dusty Blush Alpaca Blend Wool.

This hack will require 30cms more self and lining fabric than required for the jacket version of the Sanda.

These are the changes we made to the pattern to make our sample:

We increased the overall length of the jacket, by adding 12cms to the FRONT(1) and BACK(2) pieces. Make sure you also add the same length to the FRONT AND BACK YOKE FACING(4) and FRONT AND BACK YOKE LINING(10) pieces.

We added 1.5cm around the whole PATCH POCKET(8) to make it a little bigger. We did the same with the PATCH POCKET LINING(12) but didn’t add anything to the top edge of this piece.

We lowered the position of the patch pockets so they sit 5cm up from hemline.

Due to the thickness of the cloth we altered the sleeve pattern at the cuff to make the turn up a little more substantial. This is how we did it:

STEP 1: Cut through the FOLDLINE near the bottom of the sleeve as shown by the thicker line below:

STEP 2: Place some paper behind the pieces and add in 2cm total, stick down ensuring the lines remain parallel.

Redraw the FOLDLINE in – in the midpoint between the two pieces so you have 1cm above and below the new FOLDLINE.

Also draw in a new HEMLINE – 5cms below the new FOLDLINE.

 

STEP 3: Measure outwards either side of the new FOLDLINE by 1cm – see image below.

Join this point back in to the two marked HEMLINES. This will stop the cuff from hugging the sleeve hem too tightly and allow it to sit nicely when turned up.

Below are some suggestions of wools that would be perfect for this Sanda hack.
