"Up All Night" Purple Paisley needle-felted wool/cashmere Katwise-inspired patchwork elf sweatercoat-2513
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.
This coat has a name: "Up All Night"
Thank you IHF for the lovely toon inspiration.đ¶đ”
Before you get too excited, please check the measurements below. I really don't want to sell a coat that doesn't fit! Here are the very rough measurements, and I take a lot of these to try to help.Â
Shoulder to shoulder: ~14 INCHES |
Underarm to underarm: ~38 INCHES |
Hood length: ~53 INCHES |
Sleeve length: ~ 27 INCHESÂ |
Neck to hem: ~54" |
Waist when fastened: ~33" |
Closure: uses large hook/eyes, plus belt ties |
Other notes: This one has a double-felted cashmere bodice so it is heavier and warmer. Literally two 2-ply cashmere sweaters were felted together to make the bodice. It is also absolutely loaded with sequins, all painstakingly sewn on with invisible thread. Like "I went nuts"-level sequins. They are all over the hood, back design, sleeves and on the felted shape attached to the belt ties. They absolutely sparkle in the sunlight.Â
Psst... read up more about the fit and measurements of my coats HERE.

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. đÂ
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.

Care Instructions
Care Instructions
- I strongly recommend hand-washing in cold water and hang dry, or dry-clean.
- Never iron sequins or fleece.
- If you do machine-wash something, try to use a machine that does not have an agitator and put it in a lingerie bag to protect it.
- ALWAYS use cold water.
