the whole ensemble.
Finally got that dressing gown finished.
Here are the pattern details, you will see that the original is a double breasted, button up affair.
My wife used enough material to turn the finished garment into that style if I so wish, but I prefered
a cord tie, with an internal tie. The wool fabric is extremely warm, I shall look forward to winter evenings
wearing this. Incidently, we have been away to a forties themed weekend event. I turned up in the
dressing gown, complete with pyjamas and slippers, at breakfast. I was told that it had the look of
