John Williams at Celtic Flycraft. Unfortunately he has now ceased trading. This is a great pity as he is a really fantastic guy and his products were superb. I think that he bought white saddle hen capes and dyed them himself. The colours were really rich and vivid and to my great disappointment I have as of yet been unable to find alternatives that are anywhere near as good.

I notice that in several of your patterns you use 'shrimp patch'. What is it?
