- Caramel Heavyweight Linen Twill - We couldn't go this month without a nod to the famous Carhart work coat. The part of nearly every workwear wardrobe, the caramel yellow jacket is practically part of American history. Rather than recreate it in whole cloth, though, I decided to mix it up with a heavyweight linen instead of canvas. The linen is sturdy yet soft and will only improve with age as you wear this coat for years and years!
- Matcha Green Cotton Gabardine - With a twill weave and structured drape, this fabric acts similarly to heavyweight denim, but with more softness and suppleness. In a delightful matcha green, it is verdant and lush, perfect for winter when you need to make your own brightness. A gorgeous fabric if you're looking to make a cheerful jacket you'll love to wear!
