We have given two of our patterns a little summer refresh. Introducing the short version of our classic Harlene dungarees and our long-brimmed Bucket Hat.

The Harlene is an intermediate pattern with classic detailing and optional top stitching. It can be made in a range of fabrics – from cotton twill and denim, to corduroy and medium to heavy weight linen. For our summer Harlenes, we opted for Toast 260 linen. Available in UK sizes 6-28 in paper and PDF format, The Harlene’s offer an oversized fit. Here, Elwen has sewn up a UK size 12, using 2 metres of fabric.

Below you’ll find our instructions on how you can hack your Harlenes into shorts.

We create timeless and beautiful sewing patterns, fabrics, notions and ideas for a better world and a better wardrobe. Through making with our hands, we build value and a relationship with the tools and materials that creates a respect for the materials and history of the craft. Sewing has the ability to create community and improve well-being. We want to inspire others to choose a slower and more considered approach to dressing yourself and your home.
