The Alma dog jacket can be sewn in two different ways: single-layered, for example, as a softshell dog jacket, or double-layered as a dog raincoat made of water-repellent fabric. The dog coat features an adjustable hook-and-loop fastener for optimal chest circumference. The collar is also adjustable with a drawstring. Rubber straps on the hind legs ensure a secure fit and prevent the jacket from slipping. The jacket also features a zipper on the back for attaching a leash. If the size doesn't fit despite the many adjustment options, there are instructions for adjusting the pattern. You'll also learn how to use the pattern to sew a bathrobe.
