I've gotten some things made up since I last posted something in here, but my problem is I don't have a great way to get a picture of it with my lady overseas. Here's one of two new ones I just picked up. ****** bathroom pic, I know, but whatever. This is 16oz Lesser.

Does anyone know if Jeremy still works at the shop? I got an email reply back asking not to email his address any longer.

Sounds like she's doing her job by keeping Frank working.

Jeremy got a new job. Something he went to school for apparently. His help at Ercole's had always been planned as temporary.

Let me count.

Winter weight:
Gray - SB, DB (including flannel)
Navy - SB, DB

Summer weight:
Gray-SB
Blue - SB worsted, SB mohair, SB/DB linen

shoulder season (optional)
Gray - SB, DB
Navy- SB, DB

By my count about 8-12. Am I missing anything?

Differentiate between medium grey and charcoal (maybe light grey for summer) and add something in RAF blue.

That stinks. I liked J, didn't know his gig was temporary but good for him. That explains the ~7 weeks w/o contact regarding my latest commission. I'll have to find out who to contact now about my fitting. I hope this new woman is as fun to work with as J.

Anywho, was out in Chicago during a coldsnap last week and got to put my overcoat to good use. Pic isn't great but it did keep me warm when it was 0F outside. Glad to be back in the relative warmth of the northeast.

Been going to Frank and Ercole for about 11 years now....Jeremy was always a pleasure to do deal with - a breath of fresh air.

Wish I had a chance to wish him farewell.
