I’m looking for a pattern for a reversible jacket with zip-off sleeves that can then be a vest. This pattern was pictured on page 20 in Rochelle Harper’s “Sew the New Fleece”. Something similar will do.
TIA

You could probably use any pattern with a shirt type sleeve. Just use a separating zipper instead of sewing the sleeve in the armhole. They come in many lengths. depending on the material used will tell you what weight zipper. Some of those patterns with extended shoulders may work also. You don't want a sleeve with too much ease, it should be kind of flat. :<)
