A Mill for a Tweed

Ambrose Vevers is a wood worker and a bee keeper, practicing on the wilds of Dartmoor. I needed a new warping mill and he wanted a waistcoat. What happened next was a skill swap between two craftsmen that culminated in the creation of a beautifully made warping mill (ash and elm) and a honeycomb hued tweed waistcoat made from Irish wool.
