Man’s Hanbok – Jikryeong Main Construction

I did the majority of the construction for the jikryeong lining first, to work out the kinks before cutting the linen layer. First I attached the two sections of the lower side sections:

Next I combined the sleeve sections:

Then I sewed up the back seam of the body and cut the slit for the neck:

At this point I cut apart the two angled crossover sections and attached them to the body. The angled part of the front crossover needed to be shortened some. The part of the body where the collar will be attached will not be cut until the very end, when the lining and outer layer are together:

After checking the length on my arms, I ended up removing the cuff section of the sleeves before cutting the taper:

I cut 3″ squares for the side gussets out of scrap, then attached the sleeves, gussets, and lower side panels:

Finally, I attached the side sections to the body and sewed up the seam along the sleeve and side gussets:

There is plenty of extra length so I can adjust the hem once the layers are together. Next I will do all of this again in linen and attach them along the lower side panels.
