The Carole Jacket Sewing Pattern by Maéli Paris is an elegant and minimalist short jacket with a structured oversized silhouette and distinctive asymmetrical closure.

Carole features a high asymmetrical collar, partially concealed front closure and buttoned sleeve cuffs. Long rounded sleeves and front patch pockets give the jacket a modern sculptural look while keeping it practical for everyday wear.

The pattern includes two closure options, allowing you to choose between a classic buttoned version or a tie version. Its generous shape and panelled construction also make Carole particularly suitable for upcycling vintage curtains, blankets, denim and other structured textiles.
