My Tokyo Jacket – Take 2
February 19, 2014
Here’s my latest Tokyo Jacket. This one’s a more summer-ier (word? should be), casual alternative to my first silk version. And the colour is there in spades – most unlike me and my usual black-clad self, I know.
There’s not a whole lot to say about this version other than to let you know I omitted the pockets to speed up the sewing process. This was one of those projects I’d sewn up in my head months ago (damn one gets stuff done quickly in that part of the brain) and by the time I actually got around to buying the fabric, I just wanted to get it finished NOW!
You can purchase our Tokyo Jacket pattern online now, in hardcopy and PDF versions.

oh, that print. this looks like perfect summer breezes follow you.
Oooh this makes me long for summer! Beautiful.
Oh that fabric is so beautiful…how have I not seen it before! I love it in the jacket too.
So gorgeous! I too have my first Tokyo already sewn up…in my head.
Oh wow. I love it. I'm so inspired 🙂
Beautiful!
This is gorgeous! I love that fabric. I really need to get this pattern for the spring here in the uk as it would be perfect!
This is just perfect. It looks super light weight and breezy. I'll have to get to and make up another one in a lighter fabric.
that's certainly a prettier, more summery version though I still like the functionality of the first one.
What a pretty jacket! The fabric is great for summer. I'm inspired!
