Sin complicaciones, así es como me gusta vestir para diario. Y si es posible con un abrigo con bolsillos y con un gorrito que proteja mis orejas del frío y mantenga mi pelo alejado del estilo "león". 
Easy-going. That's how my everyday styling is made. If possible, wearing a coat with pockets and a beanie that keeps my ears away from freezing and helps keeping my hair away from such a lion'-like style.

DIY Wool Pink Biker-like Coat

Debo confesar que la archicnocida biker en lana rosa llamó mi atención. Aunque quizás no lo suficiente para comprarla -llevo bastante tiempo sin comprar prendas de abrigo, de hecho; pero sí en cambio para animarme a hacer mi propia versión. 
Me decidí a ello al encontrar unos retales que me había regalado la chica de la tienda de retales a la que soy asidua: no eran suficientemente grandes como para venderlos, pero a mí me ha bastado. Así que compré una cremallera y unos botones, y me puse manos a la obra.

I must confess. The well-known wool biker coat in pink caught my attention. Weeks later I decided to start a kinda new project with some pieces of fabric I had been given for free by the shop assistant - they weren't big enough to be sold but I still had enough.
As you may know, I'm kind of into the biker jacket pattern and I know I can manage with it pretty good, so I didn't hesitate - I bought a zipper and the metal button and here it is!

Las fotos del proceso pertenecen al cuello, las solapas y la cremallera, que son las partes más delicadas de este patrón. 
Por cierto, la cosí entera a mano. Y, aunque pueda parecer un tostón, también tiene sus ventajas, como poder coser por la noche mirando la tele, o poder hacer las partes delicadas sin perder los nervios.

The photos I took belong to the neckline and the collar plus the zipper seams, which can be the most difficult parts of the process. I hope they are useful. 
I made it all by hand - I am still having problems with the sewing machine. Nevertheless, I find sewing by hand can be terribly workable.

Podéis ver otras creaciones en las que utilizé el patrón de una biker aquí y aquí.
