I'm using this book to make my own parka in a different style and pattern than theirs. I bought it to learn about materials and the sewing or stitches. Not a great deal of details but still a really good source for understanding the process. Does have a few patterns in it. Includes various different items. Great for those learning, researching the history (the way I started), or just for curiosity for history buffs.
