Bespoke Sweaters

Six-ply cashmere is very, very nice. Its look and feel are incomparable and (I'm told, for I've never had anything made of six-ply) clothing made from it wears well and doesn't pill. .

Well, that would depend on the quality of the cashmere used...

I'm also considering a Teba Jacket. Any views?

My bespoke shetland sweater arrived today.

The good:
The fit is just about perfect. The thing is obviously hand made by talented people who care about what they're doing. The quality is superb.

Tha bad:
The colors are not at all what I expected. My fault, for not being specific enough. I should have had it knitted in the colors offered, rather than trying to specify my own.

I'll try to post photos, as soon as I figure out how to do it.
