Workwear: Timeless Sewing Patterns for a Practical Wardrobe

In this essential guide to workwear, Merchant & Mills presents five new sewing patterns: a chore jacket, a classic shirt, a pair of trousers, a classic blazer, and a Japanese-inspired mail bag. With Workwear, you'll learn how to create versatile, long-lasting garments made to be worn and cherished. Step-by-step instructions and photography guide you through the construction process, illustrating how different fabrics can transform each design.
