Aged about eight he had a sort of Joseph Coat made out of half a dozen different colours of Windbloc fleece! All the leftover scraps bigger than a sixpence... Well, big enough to get a sleeve, a pocket, half a front out of, anyway! It was distinctive, that's for sure! And it never went missing. Too recognizable.

I need to do that again some time...

Oh, and I have 4 crates of polar fleece of various sorts, from 200 and Windblock down to mere fashion fleece in the loft. I need to get some used up! I might get some waxed cotton (like Berber jackets) and make some more picnic blankets out of the cheap stuff. Or chop it up and make patchwork cat blankets out of it!
