I have been very fortunate and have come into the posession of just over 3
yards of Harris Tweed. It's only 28" wide so it's a bit small for a tunic
for my other half.
I could make a medieval tunic with different material in the sleeves? Any
thoughts as to how that might look - are we in a 'spoiling the ship for a
ha'porth of tar' situation.
Can anyone think of something that could be made with it? I suppose if all
else fails I could sell it

Could you make a sleeveless surcoat from it? Men wore those too
in the 13th century.
