"Icicles" Pixie blue felted 100% cashmere/fleece Katwise-inspired sequin sweatercoat-2550

Felted patchwork Katwise inspired recycled sweatercoats - vastly different from others you might have seen. These are painstakingly machine-needle-felted 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. Some are 100% cashmere. Mixed with fleece for visual flare. These coats take about ~30+ hours to make.

This one is also loaded with sequins, painstakingly sewn on with invisible thread, one-by-one, by hand. ✨

This is the second "pixie point bottom" coat I made and this design has evolved as I've continued making them like this. This one however, does not have the upgraded hood brim and I did not line the bottom of the hem with fleece as seen in the later versions. But it's BLUE. Bright blue cashmere is soooo hard to find. 💙

This coat has a name: "Icicles"

Before you get too excited, please check the measurements below. Here are the very rough measurements, and I take a lot of these to try to help. 

Psst... read up more about the fit and measurements of my coats HERE.

Some model measurements for comparison:
Height: 5' 3"
Bust: ~34"
Waist: ~34"
Weight: ~164 pounds

This, so far, is one of the better coats I've made yet and is more durable and more well made than my earlier non-felted works. It also took a lot more time, which is why the price is higher. This was about a week's worth of work, not factoring in the cost of materials (which alone are ~$100.00). The cashmere, especially in the brighter colors, is just expensive. It is SO worth it though. High quality materials enable high quality finished works.😍 

If a coat is just over the top, I've got some lower-hanging fruit for you - check out my arm warmer, leg-warmer or hat 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 HERE.
