Hi, I'm thinking of doing Haru Okumura in her winter outfit and I need some help deciding on the fabric for her pink jacket. Here are some references

Any help is greatly appreciated. Thank you!
I'd be inclined to go with fleece. You can sew pin-tucks on the wrong side to get those ribs without adding more layers and making it a sweat factory.
The hem and cuffs along with the puffiness in those areas will be more easily achieved by having a straight cut pattern and a wide elastic channel that isn't stretched a lot. This will give it that look without complex patterning.
When I look at this, I see Sweater Knit Fabric. You might even, maybe, possibly, (insert more uncertain words here) be lucky and find a wide-ribbed one like this somewhere, if the animu gods are with you.
Thank you guys for the replies. I'll take it all into consideration, this helped. ^^
