    So I have now at least decided, it will DEFINITELY be cxl HH.... The colour tho, is still very much swinging. I have moments of zealot-like, complete unassailable determination on the black, with extensive reasoning to back it up with and consequent period of apparent calm where I manage to...

    Badalassi is also in contention, if it's even possible to make it even harder, although if I was going down that route it would probably be russet the shoulder gussets are a fixation of mine, although I see the "clean lines" concept.
