			Nuranar, you did one of those cloaks by hand?  Wow.  
 The reason I hesitate about that pattern is the question can you wrap up in it and  be really warm?  I want something that keeps me out of the wind, not in it.  Soooo... you tell me....
 
 I'm impressed by your to-do list!
 
 With few exceptions, such as the cloaks and the archery vambraces (which I needed anyway, getting whacked by a longbow string really hurts) I buy everything.    Which means, shopping with an elvish/hobbitish haze over my eyes.   If an elf or a hobbit walked into this store and had to buy several outfits, what would they walk out with?   I don't sew much...  and now I need a new bow!  Ack.  My black longbow cracked last time I used it.  (Shooting in the cold shouldn't be that risky!)
