Lauren's Caiplie Jacket in Sand Cairn Circles Cotton Jacquard

I developed the Caiplie Jacket alongside our exclusive Cairn Circles cotton jacquard, and this sand-toned version really shows off the beautiful texture of the fabric.

If you'd like to recreate my Caiplie, you'll find your shopping list below. The Caiplie Jacket PDF pattern includes access to my top tips video, with lots of extra guidance to help you along the way.

Lauren's Notes:

• Fabric choice: Cairn Circles was developed specifically with Caiplie in mind. Its substantial weight and structure help the jacket hold its relaxed shape, while the woven circular motifs complement the curved seams beautifully. The sand colour is a lovely versatile option if you want a neutral jacket with plenty of texture.

• Styling tip: I’d wear this with jeans, a simple white T-shirt and trainers for an easy everyday outfit, or layer it over a cosy jumper when the weather turns colder. The sand shade works beautifully with denim and earthy autumnal colours, so it's a really useful addition to a handmade wardrobe.

• Difficulty level: This is a rewarding project if you're ready to take on a jacket with several construction stages. The fully illustrated pattern instructions and my top tips video provide plenty of support along the way. The internal welt pocket is optional, making it easy to decide whether you'd like to keep the project simpler or try a new technique.

The fabric quantity included is suitable for making the Caiplie Jacket in sizes 4-20, based on the pattern's recommended fabric requirements and including 6% shrinkage. If you're making a different size, check the pattern instructions in the gallery and adjust the quantity before adding to your basket. You will receive all sizes on the A0 print out of the pattern.
