[quesadilla]

maybe after the new year.

Proper decscription of this would be as an overshirt.

Not even on the inside of your elbows?  I always wear a long sleeve shirt underneath.

I wear mine over a Tee all the time, no itchiness for me.  G

every skin has a different level of sensitivity…I can't even wear a cashmere beanie without itching my forehead...

Did you try a rather fatty moisturizer, e.g Neutrogena Handcream? You could also sew a silk or leather hat band to the inside of the cashmere beanie, just where the front is. The back will still stretch enough. At least that way you can keep your head warm. Or do fleece beanies work?

[Beatle]

Yeah - I already use the mentioned products (melkfett aka vaseline and super fat facial cream - ) and yes,fleece products work the best…

Restock of these in Large.  We now have a few L and a few XXL left…G

[Guest]

Giles, I don't know if this topic has been covered – but what's the best way to wash these Wool Meltons ?

[Beatle]

I don't know if Giles agrees - but I would suggest a cold hand wash

I'd go cold or luke warm.  G

The tag says to dry clean it.

[Giles]

This is Haraki;s advice:

"Yes, warm water  and gentle  soap and gently put it dry !"

[Guest]

Thank God because anything that says "Dry Clean Only" is a clothing item I'd not purchase. I'm too busy in my life to add "Dry Cleaner" on my list to things to do – especially for something I'd wear often.
