Notes

This coat/jacket has another spectacular collar - EZ never ceases to amaze me!

The Long Collared coat is a “child” of the Tomten and basically follows the same construction. The front sections are wider so the sleeves are not set in quite as deep as for the Tomten.
The focal point of this coat/jacket is the beautiful square collar that can be closed as a turtle neck or cowl or be worn open in a v-neck.

I was aiming at a 1950s style car coat, to be worn open with no buttons. I made a double cuff on the wide sleeves.

I loved knitting it and I am sure i will love wearing it!
