MEN'S CIVILIAN SHAWL VEST

This pattern is for a shawl-collared vest that has a mid-level opening.  Depending on the fabric chosen, this style of vest would have been worn from the early 1850’s through the late 70’s and mid 80’s.  The vest has two welt-pockets towards the waist line.  The collar of the vest can be made of the same fabric as the vest front or of a contrasting fabric.  The back of the vest is straight across and designed to come even with the waistband of the trousers.  The back is fitted, using shallow darts and a belt.  If a more utilitarian vest is desired, the pattern can be made up without the collar.

This pattern is for civilian style trousers that could have been worn after about 1840.   It was around this time that the use of a front flap was discontinued in favor of a button fly.  The pattern includes three styles of pocket opening: side (slash) pockets, a mule- ear style and a modified slash pocket.   The pattern includes a choice of hemlines for the front of the trouser; the curved line being designed to curve over the front of the boot and being more tailored than the straight line. Tips for handling wool are also included.
