If they do well I'll make a second batch in a different colorway TBD

Would you mind sharing your ideas on other color schemes?

Get Smart · Oct 3, 2007

I'd be happy to, if/when I get to a Lot #2

i cant wait to hear about the tennis jumper.

I'd love to get a new, proper-fitting suit. How many different lining colours are available?

right now, most solid colors you can think of are available.

Here are some detail shots of the varsity stripe cardigan. Black cotton cableknit with red arm stripe detail, mother of pearl buttons.

sizes XS-L
XS (17" across chest) fits 34-36 (34 for a regular 'slim' fit, 36 for a tight/snug fit)
S (18" across chest) 36-38
M (19" across chest) 38-40
L (20" across chest) 40-42

generally recommend going your normal size, unless you want it to fit really snug (which it can since the cableknit will stretch)

and pic from my website

Pm'ed you!

To answer a quick question...the cardigan isnt thin, but it's not heavy either. Since it's cotton cableknit it's a bit lighter than wool ones. The nature of cableknit is that it's going to have a fair amount of weight behind all the knitting.

And I should have the first samples of the vneck in the next couple days. Pics to come.

The lover/fighter was the tipping point for me- I think I'll get my first-ever 'real' suit from you guys.

Then we'll see about one of those sweaters.

couple patch pocket-related questions I'll post out in the open rather than by PM in case anyone else is interested:

1.Are the pockets sized accoring to the jacket, or is it one standard sized pocket sewn onto each jacket? Tvey look good on your slim sz. 38 jacket, but I feel like they'd seem too small if the same pocket were on, say, a 42.

2. Is it possible to get the patch pocket w/o a flap, so a "bucket pocket" of sorts? (I know these off-spec tweaks make you cringe but I'm curious)

Wow, can't believe I missed this one. I guess I need to be a better lurker. I'm about ready to order a suit for my upcoming wedding. Just what I've been looking for...

yep, the patch pocket is scaled to accomodate the jacket so the same one isnt used across the board.

and yes you can get a bucket style patch with no flap

Jason, How much for that sweater?

Get Smart · Oct 9, 2007

$100 conus +$15 outside

it's a deal, it's a steal, might not even sell em and just keep em all for myself

The cardigan is great. What's the best way to pay for one (can't find the info on the site, sorry if i'm blind)?
