I like the Morning Mist/olive & oatmeal pattern.  Looks like it would be very versatile.

I'm not as creative as all of you when it comes to making up names.  But I just know that I love them both no matter what they are called!

Roger,

Please tell Teresa to stop coming up with new patterns, I'm running out of money-each new pattern looks better than the one before!!

Answering a couple questions:

The hoods are the same. They are unique in that Teresa and Fred designed them to fit over a Fedora style hat. Little known secret...Fred had Teresa re-sew the hood 9 times before they decided it was "just right". I love the oversized hood, and I rarely wear a brimmed hat in the woods. I like being able to slowly move my head side to side INSIDE THE HOOD with little to no movement of the hood itself.

The wool weight on this is somewhere in the "medium" range. Not as thick as my grey blanket weight Anorak, but thicker than lightweight.

I like how the larger plaid blends in with the shadows in the picture, and I'm with you Roger I liked sumac too.

Great patterns! I would call the second one Mountain Berry brown.

That Morning Mist looks perfect for the Michigan woods after leaf drop. Best pattern I've seen yet.   :thumbsup:

How about something with blaze orange in the body area, and something like evening stand brown for the sleeves and hood?  I think that would be nice for late season here in Michigan.
