teh fabric in your photo
is a heavier weight
harris tweed
if you wanted to
make it up in another fabric
maybe lambswool...
but it will be difficult
to get yarns with that
varigation in colour


Thanks and lambswool certainly may be a possibility. Might be nice to have something like that. I'll keep poking around in the meantime.
