David, is that from the current LL cloth subscription? The colors are lovely but I don't recall having seen it before. 3-patch for the win!
Here's my most recent liability: London Lounge blue donegal herringbone 20oz tweed. Soft and spongy and toasty. Can't wait for next Fall!
Nice one David. I am waiting for mine in the post. I am bit concern it's going to be to heavy for me.

Thanks! Yeah, I was tempted to bring it down to the tailor next week, but cooler heads will prevail. Thinking of making it up as a two patch with welt breast pocket and single sleeve button. It's very heavy so is certainly a cold weather only coat. It literally looks at least twice as big as any other liability I have so I likely would only be able to wear it once or twice before it goes into storage.
Nice! It's definitely on the heavy side, but see what you think when it arrives. It is a bit porous thanks goodness. I may use an Ermazine lining on mine as I need to supply one of my tailors with linings anyway. Not sure if Ermazine would make tweed wear cooler, but perhaps worth a shot!
This would be perfect for Russian climate. But I can't imagine myself wearing jacket in such a heavy fabric.
That blue herringbone looks fantastic, David. Who will be making it up, and be sure to post pictures when finished.
Thanks David, I will think it through when I receive the cloth. Winter in Sydney just doesn't get cold enough and I am traveling less to Europe these days. Somehow I just love the feel and texture of tweed.

I would love to have a jacket with this pattern, but only in 9-12 oz. cloth, not 20 oz.(!). The cloth is beautiful!
I thought that this was a 14 oz Shetland, no?
I looked it up - the LLTW19 is a 21oz Shetland. Yikes, I was thinking of using it for a shirt jacket. Still it might be good. What are your thoughts?
