I also want it to be versatile enough where I can wear it out or wear it in while cuddling on the couch. So, today, we will be making a hooded wrap long sleeved shirt with a self-tie belt at the waist. Of course, there will be pockets, so no worries there. Here we go!

So, we will be adding a pair of patch pockets to the inside of the blazer to make it that much more useful.
