One Pattern, A Dozen Ways | A Recap of the Lumberjack Shirt

Sep 26, 2020

As I’m working on finishing up Louis’ winter jacket for this year, I couldn’t help but take a trip down memory lane of all of the jackets I’ve made him.  And they all happen to be from one single pattern: the Lumberjack by Patterns for Pirates.

Seriously, sewing [unique] jackets is one of my favorite things.  I think because it’s a staple item, is a little more challenging, and gets worn daily — instead of having to wait for the laundry rotation.  I love a good staple pattern too, which I find in the Lumberjack!  I can take it as a base and alter it to my liking, to create some really fun, custom items for my little guy.  Ready for a trip down memory lane?

Kinda hard to believe that this one pattern made all of those jackets, isn’t it?

Some links to the ones I managed to blog:

You can find the pattern on Patterns for Pirates website right HERE.  As you could guess, I highly recommend it for your little one!
