PDF SEWING PATTERN | TN34 Parka | Merchant & Mills | UNISEX

Skill Level: Advanced
Sizes: Unisex XS–3XL
Language: English only

The TN34 Parka PDF sewing pattern by Merchant & Mills is a relaxed, versatile interpretation of the classic fishtail parka. Designed in a unisex size range from XS to 3XL, this advanced outerwear sewing pattern can be made lined or unlined and finished with either an integrated hood or a ribbed collar.

The TN34 has been completely redrafted for Merchant & Mills’ unisex sizing and replaces the discontinued TN31 Parka pattern. Unlike the previous version, the hood is included directly in the TN34 pattern, so a separate hood expansion is not required.

Make a lightweight waterproof parka in Dry Oilskin or ripstop, a practical transitional jacket in cotton drill or canvas, or a warm winter coat in wool or tweed. With several lining and collar options, the TN34 Parka can be adapted for year-round wear.

All seam allowances are 1.5 cm (⅝") unless otherwise stated and are included in the pattern.
