Would it be bad form to order another large-ish batch of swatches after not having bought anything off the last batch? Ordered 24 swatches but only one or two might take my fancy given how ridiculously particular I am about these things.

Not at all. I've shamelessly done so many times...

Today's Hober was a repeat and was the charcoal/silver grenadine grossa (6-fold construction).

^ Nice. I'm not normally a bit fan of reppe stripes (heresy, I know), but this one seems to work for me for some reason.

Hi all,

I've seen a couple pictures of a tie no longer in stock (Macclesfield 136) that I love (2 pics from the internet below). Hard to figure out background color on the internet. Does anyone who owns it have a sense of which of the current in stock ties might be close in terms of background color? Thanks.
