Will there be a short slevee shirt similar to the waffle one last year?

Probably not this year, no.

We did investigate the waffle cloth again, at the start of the year, but the plans didn't quite come together.

The shirts are being made now so all being well will be available around the middle of next month. I don't have any photographs of them, sorry to say, but there won't be much time between completion and availability.

Any hints on what's in the works?

Sure!

We're making some in linen poplin in off-white / oatmeal and mid-grey, in calico in natural, in a flecked blend of silk-linen-wool in navy and biscuit (but both are packed with all sorts of other colours, akin to Donegal tweed, albeit this isn't tweed and is from Scotland) ... and for later in the year, in corduroy and moleskin.

We've not made many shirts in the past year, having seemingly always beavering away on the collars at times inopportune, and so having to postpone cutting, but it's full steam ahead again now.

We've also very slightly changed the balance of the shirt at the front for an infinitesimally better look.

Is it too early to ask about 2023 donegal balmacaan colors?

Is it too early to ask about 2023 donegal balmacaan colors?

A few weeks too early, sir, yes!

I can at least tell you they won't be the same as last year, nor the same as the year before.

Do let us know when they're chosen, please!

We have a few shirts upcoming in linen, likewise field trousers in linen, some polo shirts and cardigans in cotton, and likely one or two other items. I think there will be a reasonably steady stream over the next 3-4 weeks.

Where is the thread gallery? Did SF take down the feature?

Not sure!

Do you maybe have an overactive ad blocker?

Oh — and we might make some more of the knitted t-shirts, too, as they seemed to do better than expected.

I don’t. I just tried to use an old url to check out thread gallery. It isn’t working anymore. Surely the pics can be found on individual page but i wished to see them all in one spot.

I think I stumbled across it the other day — no, really, not wishing to sound silly. I think I did.

I was trying to hunt down an image and am *sure* I found the thread gallery. Maybe it was via a search engine. Though of course maybe I'm misremembering.

Let me try that route. I am 100% sure I have always seen it on the side of the thread pages.
