Andrew's is made from Malden Mills ribbed fleece, I think 300wt. The hood is lined with some interlock from the States, which Gemma calls the Gruffalo print!
This was a lovely pattern to make. The only problem I had was that some areas of it were very thick to try and topstitch through which my machine objected to a couple of times. I think the Lamington Lane label sets it off quite nicely.
Sizewise, I made Andrew a 104cm - he is almost 102cm tall. It is a very good fit, however the sleeves are rather long, but looking at the picture on the pattern it's intentional.
