gabrielle said... lol, I loved this review, and I think your husband looks very nice in his new condo. ;) Thanks for the tip about the sizing, too. 10/29/04 9:02 PM
Diana M said... I'm really interested in your (his) reaction to the powerdry. I understood that its wicking properties made it more comfortable to wear in all seasons. I trying on a shirt for myself, it feels warm. Perhaps wicking and breathing don't mean the same thing.
Your t-shirt looks great, and so does your dh. I have this pattern, too -- maybe will work on tomorrow! 10/30/04 0:39 AM
LindaS. said... Edube, I certainly wasn't offended by the pic of your husband. Actually, I was hoping you'd have the "condo" picture. He really is a good sport. Powerdry comes in several weights (silk, light, medium, etc.). Which one did you use? I used the lightweight as a lining and found it to be very comfortable here in humid SW Florida. 10/30/04 9:26 AM
edube said... Thanks for the comments. I did use a silk-weight and was told to put a drop of water on the fabric and watch to see if it spread. The side with the most noticeable water spread was to be the inside of the garment. I couldn't really tell the difference. I think it's probably great as a lining (and will certainly keep in mind for the future) but for something clinging to the body? I think it's a different story. By the way, I will reveal that my husband is 67 years old. Great shape, huh?:)) 10/30/04 12:48 PM

JDpenelope said... First, may I say, hubba, hubba. Second, your review is very cute. Third, your comments are interesting to hear...about silkweight powerdry--So, as Diana M observed, it has wicking properties, but isn't necessary cool to wear...? Thanks so much for your review. 9/28/05 8:11 PM
