Notes It is an easy and straightforward pattern with no issues.
My BFF did like the model I made for myself. So I decided to make one for her as well. I wanted to make her coat somewhat different. Made this coat in cotton.

I did change the collar: instead of an ornamented collar, I made the under collar separate, and the upper collar separate, so a double collar which can be worn differently. One drawstring at he waist, one drawstring in the sleeves above the wrist. Made the front facing wider, as these are always too narrow at Lekala. No hooks nor eyes, but instead of these I made automatic buttonholes and 7 buttons (each every 10cm).

She was very pleased with her garment (Must say: I did like it myself too).
