FOLKWEAR SEWING PATTERN

#151 JAPANESE HAKAMA & KATAGINU

The #151 Japanese Hakama & Kataginu pattern by Folkwear features the traditional costume of the samurai or warrior class during the Edo period in Japan (1615-1868). The costume is made up of the Kataginu or pleated-front vest and Hakuma or pleated pants/skirt. The two garments were typically worn over a knee-length kimono for formal occasions. Today, the garments are frequently worn for official occasions, martial arts, and historic reenactment. Visit Alice in Stitches for more costume and clothing patterns.

This pattern gives you complete instructions for cutting and pleating the traditional Hakama in any size and includes pattern pieces for small, medium-large and sumo-size Koshita (Backboard) and Koshita Trianagles. For contemporary sportswear, pattern also includes instructions for optional side panels to fill in the side-seam gaps that expose the underlying kimono in traditional wear.

The wide-shoulder Kataginu can be made to match the Hakama for a traditional samurai appearance or as a contrasting wearable art accent. Easy to pleat and sew, it completes a dramatic outfit.
