Well, fabric.com has wool crepe in a variety of nice fall colors for
$6.49 a
!4 yards. 60 wide?
Lord ...make yourself a nice, smart looking redingote you can wear out today
[even though it's Victorian]. That might take like 6 yards. Make that
houpland if you must with the rest. You have enough to make a period and a
modern

I've got 14 yards of plain medium-dark green (somewhere between emerald
and forest) wool. It's lovely and soft and about t-shirt weight. I
thought I might make cloaks out of it, but it seems a little light.
What would you do? Any time, any place...

LOL! Well, I am willing to part with it for what I paid for it, which is
pretty cheap, if anyone is interested. I've been looking at it for a
year now and just can't get inspired.

that wool mantua at the Met with the metallic embroidery.
Lightweight wool is so wonderful for spring or fall outdoor events.
It really depends on what

I just got back from a wonderful three week vacation to England and
Scotland with four other SCA friends. We saw castles. We saw cathedrals.
We saw Palaces! We saw ordinary people's homes recreated from Anglo-Saxon
times (Weald and Downland Open Air Museum) and Tudor Cottages.
No, ME!
Not that I need 14 yards of green wool.
However, I think I'd make doublet, trews, perhaps a tunic, and a cloak.
The cloak, I'd line with a medium-weight linen; t-shirt weight does seem
