#loki pattern

The Loki pattern is so bad so I made a quick little ugly dress. Inspired by the Loki lamp.

Sorry for the crumpled state of the paper and how it doesn't look like it makes sense.... but when I sewed mine together, it definitely worked.

Since I sewed mine up quickly, I forewent the full complicated details of Loki's coat, in particular the V-shape part in the back, but I'm sure it could be easily added in. I only made half of the coat as a pattern because the other half would be identical and I could just flip the patterns. All the extra pieces on Loki's coat actually makes it quite form fitting to Hiddles's back, but it's quite hard to actually get that done right. (i am kind of a beginner sewer though -.-)

The arm sleeve top area and the V-shaped bottom area might not look like they would sew up properly but they do. (in reference to the last picture of the patterns I made) I'm not entirely sure how to explain it but I think it works like this. The top sleeve part will be pulled up and sewed together with the other top sleeve opening part and that will pull up the bottom part of the same piece and that's why the angle of the V shape thing changes to match the beginning part of the V-shape thing... The change in angle happens to be where the midline of the jacket is as in the middle of the side seems.

Personally, I'd like to go back and make a better more accurate simpler pattern, but I don't think that will be happening anytime soon because I'm not hung up enough on it to re-sew it... plus I don't have anymore of the green cloth. I think it would be easiest for someone to modify a pattern based off of this one if they wanted to. I hope this helps. My ask box is always open if I can help

This is the basic pattern for my loki shirt. Since I was working with pleather I was afraid to make it too tight so it turned out to be a bit looser than I would have liked. You can curve the sides in and out as you'd like. I made patterns for each stripe on the shirt too although I ended up not using as much of the extra space I cut out for the stripes. I had to hand sew all the strips because my sewing machine couldn't sew through too many layers of pleather.

There's more pictures of this pattern, but tumblr only lets you post  pics in a post. I'll also explain how I sewed the stripes in or you could do them the same way I sewed the sleeve part stripes.

IMPORTANT:I forgot to mention I lost the piece of paper i made for strip R4, so there's a missing strip... it looks the same as the others though just different lengths
