to reopen this, I bought one of the woolshell jackets this week, too soon to give a review, but first looks are very good, well made and the service is outstanding, less than 48hrs from order to delivery !
Wool
- Thread starter deerstalker.308
- Start date
I’m still tempted by one of those!
When I can stop throwing the teddy out at my inability to follow a sewing pattern I’ll finish the jacket I’m working on and post a pic or two!
I'd love to give one of these DIY woollen pieces a go! Anyone have any patterns they could send me? Poncho/jacket/coat/trousers/outerwear/something to get the ball rolling! 
Just been making up a DIY Great Kilt (i.e. just hemming a big piece of fabric), and realised the endless possibilities of a sewing machine...
I think I'd get some pretty confused looks from people if I went stalking in a breacan-an-feileadh (Great Kilt) though... Although quite tempting...

This is a good pattern for a top you can adapt it to a smock without zips easy enough

That looks great, thanks! And how many m2 do you reckon for a jacket? Depends on the circumference of the wearer I supposeThis is a good pattern for a top you can adapt it to a smock without zips easy enough

But did I read somewhere on this thread that it’s around 3m of fabric, or am I making that up?

Speaking of “wool” I’ve just purchased another of these fine and comfortable bits of kit at half-price:
Other colours available but I probably had the last XXL in red & grey.
