The swatch is an interesting mix of 2 very dry yarns, not being linen, amazing. At the moment used double but might go down to single because the aim is to create a summer shirt fit to cope with humidity. Marinate!

Short turn around, did a single swatch and this is it, the fabric more to my liking, Gauge 28S/38R.

I turned it into a Henley because a Cardigan in summer, not me. Still need to find buttons, come time, come buttons.

I am extremely happy with the fabric it’s perfect for our climate. Next time I will swap and finish the shirt with Gima instead of the Silk because after the wash the silk now drapes too much for my liking whilst the shoulder section could do with a bid more of that.
