Boiled wool jumpers

I think the problem will come with the original cut. Xxxl is not I realise a proportional increase of x percent all around. After a while (xxl) the increase is in the chest and belly.

So it’s drying anyway. We shall if if I need to pick a barrel chested little mate out and make a gift.

Put it on now and get your hair dryer

Maybe you could put a jumper inside it that fits , while it's still wet.
Pad it out with towels , so it's like you're inside it and let it dry naturally.

That makes sense in my head.

This is an important insight and one that it took some makers of plus size clothing a while to work out. I remember one particular motorbike jacket where the sleeves came down to around my knees.

Well the jumper fits me. Not perfect but ok.

I did manage to buy these boiled wool mittens. They are fantastic. https://www.amazon.co.uk/EDZ-Boiled-Wool-Mittens-Large

My mam is just back from Norway and she brought me this Norwegian woolen 'genser'. Apparently it was quite expensive so I'm under strict instructions not to set foot in the garage while wearing it
