Sorry for the bad cellphone pic, but does anyone know what this type of stich is called?

You talking about the triangle shape? It's just a regular single needle stitch. Instead of going straight up making a "V" shape they carried on for couple more stitches like doing a 3 point turn making that triangle. Purely a visual thing.

Thought it was a visual thing… I quite like it actually! Haha Thanks for the quick answer.

I like it too. Which brand of jeans are those? I've only seen it couple of times in custom mades

A pair of oni's from like 3 years ago… I love the denim, but the cut isn't so flattering on someone who's really thin.... also the rise is kinda high. Maybe i'll take a chance and order a 28 sometime in the future

We do it a lot on our jackets and shirts, this from the TWHRII

Trust the works to do a better job. I like the TWs better. The inside stitching size match the out and the triangle goes all the way the the end. Attention to detail

Looks more like a 2 needle machine with separate/independent needle bars, while the original post showed a pocket stitching executed using on a single needle machine (basically, setting the pocket 1 stitch row/seam at a time, making parallel stitching more tricky if desired.)

I washed my indigo forum t-shirt once already, but am about to do a wash of t-shirts, sax coloured as well… Should I wash it separately or not?.. I wash at 40 C°, delicate setting...

Wash it with another pair of GATs….....

Wash it seperately at 30.

Does anyone know this:

Pressie, just wondering whether it's decent… Max Power?.. Geo?..

[Geo]

Nice pressie

Pronounced kal-eela (without reverting to phonetics)

I think the 12yo is generally considered the best of the range

Quite light for an Islay malt

Im not the biggest fan of whisky so maybe Flo can give you in depth

[Seul]

Cheers Geo!.. Aye not a whisky drinker meelf but no worries… I'll find time to drink it...

Where I can find cat's eye buttons?

I need one black 11-12mm dia, but the color is so unique (black, but when you look at it closely, it's very dark burgundy). These buttons are smooth except the cat's eye.

If I can't get right one, I need to change all, and then similar buttons to IH workshirt buttons are OK.
I can take a dozen or two if they are not costing an arm and a leg.

Hi Seul.

I love Caol ila, it's a realitvely mild islay whisky, peaty, but not too strong. A bit oily and waxy and a bit like the stuff the make gin out of, juniper?!) . i got three versions at home, that says it all. the 12 YO is the standard Version which is perfect for beginners, then there's also a cask strength, an 18 YO and an unpeated version. But you got a nice bottle there, enjoy it. Maybe add a drop of water and see how the peatsmoke starts to come up…

The finish is not as long as on a Arbeg, Lagavulin or the like and the body is medium - light.

I love to drink Coal Ila after a day at the sea or in winter to get warm. So not right now...
