Essential! You're sauteing your garlic, not minding your skillet, and this is the only thing that can save your ***!
Though it doesn't bother me nearly as much as that felt flower. 🤢

I don't care! It looks like a dog biscuit with a pimento on it!

I like both the suit and the way it's been presented, with a variety of shots showing the full suit and tight shots for texture, color and weave. Quality post.

Isn't this cloth best described as a basket-weave?

Hopsack by definition is a basket-weave.

The pattern is tweed-like but I wonder whether they are in fact tweed. They look more like a linen blend to me.

If you're referring to the DB suit I posted, I think it most definitely has linen as a constituent fiber of the yarn. Could be linen and silk, or linen, wool and silk. Such blends have been marketed as "summer tweeds" for some time, though technically, I don't believe they are tweeds. Definitely a hopsack, but with a tweedy feel.

He's not. The quoted material is from me.
You could be right, especially as the arm in pic #2 is holding wrinkles while at rest.
