I made this pattern in 1968 in a brown loop mohair that had a striped texture pattern, the loops were in a row not scattered. I did a dull satin lining, and used buttons made out of 2 types of wood, a large dark center and a narrow rim of lite wood mimicing the color of the outside and inside of the coat. Still have it and still LOVE it. No unfortunately does not fit!! This is a FABULOUS STYLE and fitted great!!!
