Unfunded Liabilities: a/k/a The Cloth Thread

[SimonC]

Lesser 8/9 was ok. Nothing special. Not as much crease resistance as fresco or tropical air

Agree with this. I have a suit in it, and it’s a fabric choice I regret. Against Rangoon, there’s just no competition

Anyone tried Mystique? Used to be a poor relation of Lesser (the tops in those days). But there are a few patterns that I find intriguing.

I am going to close orders for these two Rangoon in POW check this Sunday (mid grey and dark blue). Please PM if you are interested. Thanks.

Unfunded Liabilities: a/k/a The Cloth Thread

But you'll order several cloths in a row. You're never going to full fund your liabilities. Call me naive, but I thought I would... reality has kicked in, I should stop buying cloth and focus on actually funding the stuff I already own. But I keep seeing super nice cloth, but I will from now on...

Can you make us a mockleno from a dark and racing green yarn?

I'm going to see if I can get some samples done up when I send in the Rangoon POW check early next week.

How is the 8-9oz with lumbs golden bale? I’ve got a suit length of it in a pinstripe

No experience with the lightweight section of that bunch.

Just commissioned a very dark navy worsted twill from the LGB bunch. They are having a difficult time sourcing some of the darker yarns, so the bunch is running down quickly

Does anyone have any suggestions on where to buy shirt fabrics in Milan?

go to Il Vecchio Drappiere
also, on the other side of the street is Camiceria Tiziano - you can buy fabrics there as well if you ask nicely
