Merchant & Mills ~ Barka Pattern
A simple dog coat for your furry friend. Make it bagged out with lining or lined with bound edges.
Seam allowance is 1cm, unless stated otherwise. Skill level - advanced beginner.
Note:
For both views, and how to measure your dog, please look at the line drawings in our gallery.
Fabric suggestions - Oilskin, dry oilskin, cotton jacquard, mid - heavy cotton canvas or twill, mid weight denim or corduroy. For the lining we would suggest barrier lining or a simple stable cotton. Consider if you will want to put this dog coat in the washing machine when choosing cloth - for example oilskin cannot be washed - you would let the dirt dry and then brush it off.
Optional Piping (top) - 3 - 3.5M x 00 size.
Optional Piping (short shorts) - 1.6 - 2M x 00 size.
When consulting the 'fabric requirements' chart you need to add your top choice and bottom choice together to get the total amount of fabric you need for the set.
