Really, jess...

You do know that if the fit is a little off in a wool garment that you can block it to fit you!

(malkin, the wool devil temptress...bwah ha ha haaaaaa!)

I don't know if I can fix these! Most of the shirts fit perfectly through the shoulders and sides but are too short and/or the sleeves are too short. I guess I could buy up a few sizes but even that is no guarantee

Unrelated - the one wool "t-shirt" I have never smells b/c of me sweating, but seems to be the only thing that comes out of the wash all stinky. How do I fix that?

I don't need a picture, it sounds good. I just didn't want the one with the giant "SWOBO" across the front, which I saw when I was googling. M would be better than L, but I'm not too fussy about size. It could be a little big.

PM me your address, since I know you moved since our last transaction.

lph, you look gorgeous! I love those dresses.

Will go ahead and send the PM, and no, it isn't across the front at all. Regardless I will confirm the size once I get home. I do not think you will find it too big.

I'm going to guess that the jersey Catrin has is the same one I am wearing in this photo:


It's one of my favorites!

And I agree: LPH, you look great!

It's pretty! I'm sending Catrin the shorts right now, so sorry if anyone else wanted them. This happened fast!

If what you mean is that it smells like sheep when it's wet, the way you fix it is by learning to love that smell. Particularly when you're sweaty and it's the only thing you smell of ... or on a winter day when you've washed all your wool and are drying it in the house.

It isn't the same jersey, I did manage to find :



This looks quite similar, but the neck is different on mine. You can see a portion of the logo on one of the sleeves, it is in the same place. It looks better in person than in this photo.

Haha oak - I now have a really funny visual in my head. But I don't think it smells like sheep...more almost mildewy/rotten. Unless that's what wet sheep smell like. I usually use Arm & Hammer laundry detergent but maybe I need to switch.

(I've smelled the rotten smell in clothes before, in an apartment with a washer that was growing...something...in it, but at that time ALL of my clothes smelled yucky. Maybe the wool is just more sensitive and this is my warning sign)

The photo you posted is the same jersey I am wearing, just a different color. It fits beautifully - curved like a woman and plenty long enough for my longer torso. Of course, if your neck is different, then all bets are off.

Cool! I'm sure it will be perfect.

I was trying to tell in the photo, I thought yours had a different cut I think this is probably the same jersey or very, very close.

I agree that it does have a beautiful fit

lph, the skirt looks like this:

But, it seems like this one is longer than the one I have. Mine is above the knee. Maybe it's just my perception. I got it for half price, in the summer, a couple of years ago.

got my ibex order last night, today I am wearing my new pullover Shak and my husband loves his new longsleeved T-shirt. He asked me why I only bought one! so then my mind does this thing, hm, I could order him a new shirt and I could get another Shak too!!!! I'm DOOMED!

[GLC1968]

I am a true wool weenie today. Icebreaker wool skirt, Ibex wool t-shirt and a Neve wool sweater over it. If my Smartwool VFF's were the charcoal color, I'd have them on as well!

I received my package from Sierra tradingpost last night. Two gorgeous wool sweaters from Neve and a wool wrap for me, and just to allieviate some guilt - a gorgeous wool sweater (also Neve) for my husband. Ah...wool!

(oh, and he loved the Ibex blanket as a V-day gift!)

[Biciclista]
