James McMillan's New Inverness cape

[Jack Daw]

Looks very handsome, vmac. Jay will need to model it for us when he gets it. Looks fine craftsmanship.

Yippee - Yippee!!! - Wow - Wow

Mainline overload on the Jones!!!

I really think I made a good choice when I finally decided on getting an Inverness Cape - Of course my timing is a little off - cause today it's supposed to hit 100 degrees.........

OH well, when I get it I'll do the model thing!!!!!!!

Thanks Victoria!!!

Man this looks great! Would you share with us where you obatined the pattern? I would love to try my hand at one of these. Thanks!

It is the Butterick Sherlock Holmes costume pattern ,with some revisions, like taking out the sleeves, adding a half lining, and pocket slits. The bad news is that pattern is out of production, so you have to do some searching to find it.

I'll get it is the mail soon. I hope you don't mind a couple of Golden Retriever hairs. They really are sweet dogs. You will no doubt want to get it pressed again when it gets to you. I'll steam it here, but then I'll be putting it in a box.

Not to worry, I'm a dog person! And I have my gizmo steamer!

Besides which, it is going to be hanging on a good hanger inside a plastic bag for a couple of months before it gets any regular use!

But seriously, should I get it "professionally" pressed??????

Jay,

You have all the cool stuff.

Only if you can't get the travel wrinkles out. It's good wool. A steamer should do it up nicely.
