I could have used this one this past year when I gave in and mended a friend’s pants.

Unfortunately, this is truer than you think. I’ve done this to myself. That’s way too “self”ish, I think!

LOL! I’ve done that before–on accident though. Maybe next time? *evil grin*

what about using more of the rayon double knit? It looks like it fits great, but wool without sleeves is not right, unless it is a jumper.

Wool is season-less. In fact, it’s great at wicking away moisture.

Ahh, very true! As a fiber, wool is indeed seasonless, and I do own lovely lightweight wool summer dresses. But as a fabric, this particular wool is heavy and warm, definitely for cool weather wear! But yes. I do love wool fabric in any season :)
