Sewing instructions:

Seam allowances are included - 1cm wide or as marked

To sew this shirt you will need a sewing machine and an overlock sewing machine, or alternatively the zigzag stitch on your sewing machine to neaten the cut edges.

Be sure to use a jersey needle and a stretchy stitch, i.e. if you are sewing with a home sewing machine, you should use either a zigzag stitch or the three-part stretch stitch and then finish all seam allowances again with a zigzag stitch or another similar stitch so that they do not fray. In addition to the description, the colored lines in the pictures show you where a seam needs to be sewn or something needs to be glued.
When sewing, pay attention to the seam allowance included in the pattern. Seam allowances that are not specifically marked are 1cm wide!
Have fun sewing!

You start with the sleeves...something completely new ;-)

You place the upper sleeve right sides together on the lower sleeve and close both the upper arm seam and the side seam. The seam allowances are neatened together and ironed into the upper sleeve.

Now you neaten up all the open edges, i.e. the hem, the armhole and the center back.

Then iron the sleeve hem 4cm and stitch it down.

Close the center back with right sides together and iron the seam open.

Next, finish the side seam on the front piece and the front side seam on the side piece.

For the pocket bags, the opening edges and for the inner pocket bag, the bottom line are finished.

Now sew the inner pocket bag right sides together to the front piece inside the notch and stitch the seam allowance on the pocket bag flat.

Do the same with the larger pocket bag on the side part. Here you iron the seam allowance apart.

Now close the front side seams right sides together. Sew from the armhole to the top pocket opening, lock well, start again at the bottom pocket opening and sew to the hem.

Then sew the pocket bags right sides together and neaten the curves.

The side seams can then be ironed apart. The pocket bag is stitched onto the seam allowance at the bottom.

Next, place the front pieces right sides together on the back piece and close the side seams. The seam allowances are neatened together and ironed to the front.

Now you clean up the body, except for the front edge and the neck hole...

...and put the torso and sleeves together right sides together. Iron the seam allowance apart except for the armpit area.

Let's go to the hood.

You sew 2 separate hoods. The side pieces are connected to the middle piece, right sides together, as is the front part of the hood. Please note that the small part of the hood at the front is only sewn on up to the top notch. The seam allowances are ironed apart.

Sew a hood onto the jacket right sides together.

Now neaten the open edge of the front facings and the neckline edge of the second hood.

Then sew the facings right sides together onto this hood.

Now take the zipper protector and turn it over at the curve and the short edge, turn it right side out and iron it flat.

The zipper protector is now placed around the zipper. Cut off the left side of the zipper. The notch on the protector is placed on the cut edge and then folded over.
Sew the protector in place with a stitch.
Pin the zipper right sides together to the right front piece. Pay attention to the notches and the 1cm gap on the top edge. Sew one zipper on with the half quilting foot. Tip: Before you sew on the other side, close the zipper and transfer the hood seam to the other zipper side (turquoise line). This will ensure that the seams are at the same height. Pin the other side well and sew the second zipper on.



This is what the finished zipper looks like

Then you can stitch the facing and hood onto it, right sides together.

You start at the hem fold, sew up the front edge, setting the needle to the 'left' position so that you can get the foot closer to the zipper chain, turn the hood edge over and sew it down again on the other side.

The corners are trimmed.

Almost there!

You sew the inner hood in the shadow of the neck seam.

If you like, you can stitch the zipper down, then it will be a bit flatter at the front edge.

You fix the pocket bags to the front facing with a few hand stitches.

Finally, iron the hem and stitch it at about 4.5cm.
