The Paynter

*Please note the Paper version of the pattern is on pre-order, with the patterns expected to arrive late September*

Paynter Jacket Co. make limited edition jackets four times a year that are made to order, so there’s no waste from over production. Their jackets are classic pieces that will stand the test of time and get better with age. The Field Jacket is Paynter’s first make-your-own jacket pattern in collaboration with Merchant & Mills.

All paper patterns will include two woven labels, one is to be positioned inside the jacket near the hip and the other is a smaller label for the back neck. The larger label has been designed by @hello.ludio. Lucie’s design features the sun and the moon to represent time and getting lost in the practice of making. These labels are only available in the paper pattern, not PDF, and won’t be sold elsewhere.

Need sewing help? We have made a You Tube video that takes you through the two trickier steps of the Paynter pattern, the placket and the hip pockets. You can view that video here.

Difficulty

Advanced. (We have a blog post here, that shows you how to change the hip pocket to a patch pocket, this makes it an easier sew and also means you go through slightly less layers so you could use a thicker fabric.)

Fabric Recommendations

We recommend light to medium weight wovens up to 8oz, cotton twills, denim, wool and dry oilskin. There are 9 layers to sew through during the pocket construction, so check the fabric you choose can be accommodated by your sewing machine.

See final image for fabric requirements.
