How to order?

All measurements must be taken, taking into account any underlayers you may be wearing underneath.
All measures are to be communicated in centimeters.
+15% cost for any XXL or larger body measurements. This additional cost - which is reasonable - is explained by an increased need for raw materials and by longer sewing work.

2. Choose background colour (wool)
