NEW :: THE OSLO COAT PATTERN
Just in time for winter, meet our new pattern – the Oslo Coat! This stylish and timeless coat is fully lined and features a slim double breast, shawl collar, full length raglan sleeves and side pockets. Oslo is a classic straight fit and sits on or just above the knee.
So how did this pattern come to be? After creating our very popular Brooklyn Coat, we heard the frequent call for a winter design that was more tailored. And lined! This pattern is very much geared towards the intermediate to advanced sewist and we’re really proud of the instructions, so if you’re up for a very achievable challenge – this is the pattern for you! We also really wanted to create a style that is elegant and classic.
This dreamy black wool version is made up in our Nero Double Crepe and also comes in Bianco and Blu.
The blue sample (above) is made up in our Big Sky Check (also available in Ocean and Forest colourways) and this delicious herringbone version (below) is made up in Italian Zebra. You can check out more of our coating range here.
When choosing a lining for your Oslo Coat, we definitely recommend you go for something more hard-wearing and coat-worthy like a viscose or acetate blend.
The pattern comes in (Australian) sizes 6 through to 16 and is now available in both hardcopy copy and actual size copy shop/print-at-home version. Oslo is sold in two size ranges – Size 6-8-10 and Size 12-14-16 – so please take care to select the right size when purchasing your pattern!
Hope you like the Oslo. And if you sew her up, don’t forget to tag #oslocoat and share your version. Happy sewing friends!

Hi! Love the new coat. Will there be a sample to try on in any of your stores? It looks oversize – is that correct?
Thanks!
What a great line! Looks like you could use a few fabric ‘weights’ – especially with lining.
Love it! But what about us bigger girls? 🙁 We like to wear nice hand made clothing too. 18+ size would be great.
Couldn’t agree more, Kathryn. This style would look so good on we curvaceous women, too.
Interesting comment. I’m planning to make this coat & would love some clarification on use of “weights” to improve my make. Ever learning!
Yes, I am with Kathryn. Can’t see why your lovely patterns are not available in larger sizes.
Im in UK and would love a hard copy.. is that possible?
Hi Jeannette. Please send us an email with your address and we’ll get back to you with postage cost for airmail – fabrics@tessuti.com.au
I am a medium in your other patterns and would like to have both size 10 and size 12 to work with. Does this mean I have to buy both patterns? Would it be possible to get a size 10 and 12 combo?
Hi Elizabeth. Sizes 10 and 12 are not available together. If you are a medium in our other patterns, we would suggest size 12.
Is there a rating system for your patterns? I’ve done a lot of sewing but have never tackled a tailored(ish?) jacket. Any advice?
Hi Jenny. We don’t have a rating system as such but we do list sewing level/ability on the product page. If it helps, this was my first ever ‘tailored(ish)’ and lined coat too. I hope you give it a go!
