“Prophet” Rainbow pixie felted cashmere/wool/fleece Katwise-inspired sequin sweatercoat-2572

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). This one is extra-fine merino wool/cashmere, which has been made softer by the needle-felting process. These coats take about ~30+ hours to make.

This one is part of my newer "pixie bottom" coat designs - even the "skirt" section is felted for supreme durability. Also hidden inside the hood brim are 4 felted layers.. so instead of 2-ply cashmere, think 8-ply... which I felted the heck out of to super-compress them, so the hood brim has a lot more structure than my earlier works, but without adding too much bulk. The result is a hood that has a better "hang" and holds a shape better when worn up over the head. Also, even the skirt pieces on this one have loads of ✨sparkling sequins. ✨

More about my newest coats over HERE so that you know what to look for and what "upgraded hood brim" means. <-Also a great read even if you're just idea-shopping. 💖 

This coat has a name: “Prophet”
Thank you VNV Nation for the lovely toon inspiration. 💗🎵

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. 

👉Note: This is the SMALLER of my two recent rainbow coats.👈

**The sleeves on this one have merino wool, but they are fleece-lined for extra comfort. This makes them a lot WARMER, too. I recommend this coat to someone who lives in an area that's subject to cooler and colder weather.

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: ~160 pounds

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. 😊
