Felted patchwork Katwise inspired recycled sweatercoats - vastly different from others you might have seen. These are painstakingly for way better durability, warmth and better fit. The felting creates a completely different garment and also provides enough structure for machine embroidery and sparkling sequin work (most coats have this). Most contain buttery-soft, luxurious recycled cashmere. This one 100% cashmere. Mixed with fleece for visual flare. These coats take about ~30 hours to make.
This coat has a name: "How Did I Get Here"

Material: Almost exclusively fine felted cashmere, mixed with fleece. SUPER, super soft. On this coat, the "skirt" isn't quite as full, so if your legs tend to get tangled up in longer, fuller garments and that bugs you, this is a good choice.
Notes: This coat has embroidery and sequin work. All of the sparkling sequins that you see are painstakingly hand-sewn on with invisible thread - far more secure than glue and as much as possible, my super-seamstress-ninja-fingers weave the thread within the fibers so that it is both invisible and very secure.
If a coat is just over the top, I've got some lower-hanging fruit for you - check out my , or listings as I often make these from material left over from the coats. You can put together a pair of arm-warmers, leg-warmers and a hat for a little less than a coat, but still have a SUPER cute ensemble! I don't always have a complete set, but it's worth a look. 😊
They're not designed to be worn in a blizzard in heavy snow, but these do keep a person warm - much more so than non-felted coats. It's like wearing a warm HUG. If you're looking at other coats and just need a frame of reference for comparison before you decide, you can order a cheapie needle-felted sample .
