The Pattern
Finally here — the pattern you've been asking for
Hooded Workwear Jacket
Skill Level 3 / 5
1 Field Jacket
A heavyweight, hooded workwear jacket built around structured shoulders, a generous attached hood, a large kangaroo-style front pocket, centre-front zip closure, and rib-knit cuffs and hem for a snug, durable finish. The shape is boxy and grounded — designed to layer, take wear, and look better the more it's used.
This has been the single most requested pattern in Roughcut's history — built from real fieldwork, fittings and feedback, and finally ready.
Course & Tutorials
Two ways to follow the build
The main studio tutorial takes you through the full Field Jacket build from start to finish — every panel, every seam, every stage. Alongside it, a 3-part travel sewing series follows the same build on the move, filmed across South England, in a more vlog-style format.
Travel Sewing Series — Sewing the Field Jacket on the Move (3 Parts)
Filmed across South England, this 3-part series follows the same Field Jacket build in a vlog-style format. Watch all three for the complete journey.

Built for durable workwear fabrics
Recommended fabrics
- Duck canvas
- Workwear canvas
- Heavy cotton drill
- Waxed or washed canvas for a softer, lived-in finish
- Rib knit for cuffs and hem
Heavier fabrics create a structured, traditional field jacket. Washed or midweight canvas creates a softer, more everyday-wearable version.
Printing Correctly
📐 Printing Box
- Files included for A0, A4 and US Letter — all three formats included in your digital download
- Print at 100% / actual size — never "scale to fit"
- Measure the 2" × 2" test square before cutting any fabric (has to be perfect)
- Print from a laptop/computer for the most reliable print settings
- A0 print files for this pattern span 5 sheets — A0 files can be taken to a local print shop
- Printed & Shipped is also available if you'd rather skip tiling & sticking at home
📎 Tiling Pages?
If you're printing at home on A4 or US Letter, your pages need tiling and sticking together before cutting fabric. Full instructions on the Help page.
Open Help PageSeam Allowance
✂️ Seam Allowance Box
- Every Roughcut pattern (except a few early patterns like the Ushanka Cap and Duffle Bag) already has 1/4" seam allowance built in
- Cut directly on the pattern line — no need to add anything
- Hood, pocket and rib-knit application areas may use different allowances — these are stated in the tutorial
- If unsure, watch the tutorial before cutting
⚠ First Build? Read This First
- Buy a little extra fabric — mistakes happen while learning, and there's no room for re-cutting otherwise
- Don't cut your final fabric until your test square is correct
- Watch the tutorial before cutting into good fabric
- Use scrap or cheaper test fabric if unsure
