Hi All,

I stumbled on this beautiful likely Shetland Tweed on LL Instagram and Flicker..

Now while I wasn't able to find its entry in the forum it is beautiful and seems a 2017/8 issue.
I wonder the specifics of this subscription and whether a re-issue may be considered ?

Regards,
ALG.

The Prince tweed was probably my favorite of all the great tweeds we have made. And the shetland version was something very special. I increased the blue thread count just a fraction in the Shetland version and it really brought the design to life.

If any of you have jackets made from the Shetland Prince, please post them. I love to see them.

And thanks to Andy for the post of his truly splendid jacket.

Indeed this subtle blue thread count increase seems to make a whole difference and bring the whole design to life.

Be that as it may, I do wonder whether a re-issue of the Shetland Prince would be appropriate ?

Reagards,
ALG
