Funny thing about wool.. it breaths very well. The poor cadadh are handmade (something I felt was kinda obvious by my horrid tailoring skills hehe). I took some advice from a few of the felllows here on the X and turned out a pair using some wool fabric I'd picked up somewhere?. I've tried and tried to find some of the red and white checked cloth that I've seen in old paintings but can't for the life of me find anything that isn't A: Vinyl table cloth covering, or B: 1/8" in size
I'd definately advise anyone making their own to use some scrap cloth with the same properties before butchering some nice stuff like I did hehe. Thanks for all the kindness and..
P.S. One of the fine Gents here posted a pretty nice pattern that I believe his lady friend put together for him and they looked marvelous!
