Good news everybody, we've got your cosplaying needs covered. That is, if you are cosplaying as Sherlock Holmes.
Our newest pattern release, [the Carlton Coat](/patterns/carlton) is exactly what the doctor prescribed if for some weird reason
your doctor wants you to look like everyone's favorite detective.

My memory is foggy on the exact origin of this endeavor. It probably involved
me complaining about the cold and my lack of a warm winter coat, but apart from that, I'm not too sure.

What I do remember is that at one point,
[Anneke](http://www.annekecaramin.com/) and myself decided that we would reverse-engineer the Sherlock Holmes coat.
More specifically, the coat worn by Benedict Cumberbatch in the BBC series Sherlock Holmes.

The coat is popular with cosplayers for obvious reasons, but it's also just a really nice coat, and
other brave souls [such as Melissa](http://blog.fehrtrade.com/gallery/868/the-sherlock-coat/) have tried their hand at it.

I must admit that I didn't know Melissa made a similar coat until mine was finished. Furthermore, her blog post
mentions that she used the instructions in a livejournal post that is no longer available.

Anneke and myself did no such thing and just put the pattern together based on screengrabs from the TV show.
We're hardcore like that.

### About the coat
Carlton is a double-breasted long overcoat in the tradition of horseback uniform coats
where the back of the coat isn't split, but rather has wide pleats that can drape over the back of the horse.
Or, more realistically, fan open behind you as you walk about.

It comes with two patch pockets on the front, two map pockets at the chest, and two inner pockets.
Six pockets in total, so you'll have plenty of room for all your belongings.

I finished mine just in time for a trip to Köln to visit my beloved friend and tailor
[Sebastian Hoofs](http://sebastian-hoofs.de/massschneider/).
It was cold as eff over there, but the coat kept me nice and warm. Not surprising since it's made in a hefty
wool I picked up in [Bacci in Florence](http://www.baccitessuti.it/en/index.html) over the summer, and I took
the extra step of interlining it with French terry (I really don't like to be cold).

### Burn the patriarchy to the ground through the power of pockets
Ladies take note: Carlita --- a female version of Carlton --- is currently on the drawing board.
Initially, the plan was to release male and female versions side by side, but adapting the coat
has proven to be more involved than anticipated because, well, because boobs.

I also feel like I have to
keep too many plates spinning right now, so I'm hopeful that getting Carlton out the door will
create some time/space to make Carlita follow soon(ish). Either way, I've promised Anneke that we'd
do a female version, and [she's a freesewing Captain now](/patrons), so I intend to keep that promise.

Oh, and about that title: When Carlita's ready, she will have just as many pockets as Carlton.
## Also, this: Introducing the Bent Body Block
We're actually releasing two patterns today. Apart from the Carlton Coat, there's also
the [Bent Body Block](/patterns/bent).

I originally designed Bent as a base for my [refashioners 2017 zebra jacket](/blog/the-refashioners-2017/),
so you can expect that jacket pattern to also hit the site in the coming months.

Carlton is also based on Bent, so we're giving you both today.

Have wonderful and happy holidays if you're into that kind of thing. And happy making!
