I'm planning on being at DragonCon in Atlanta on Labor Day Weekend 2014. The last days of August. The first days of September.
THIS IS STILL SUMMER IN ATLANTA!!
As part of my Doctor Who #7 outfit I did break down and buy one of Lovarzi's Dr. Who #7 jumpers / sweater vests. But wearing a sweater in Atlanta in Summer? I can already imagine myself roasting in the hot, muggy, swampy, Southern air!
So, I thought, what about a sweater vest that's NOT intended to add warmth. Something like a T-shirt. I'll have a white T-shirt, white dress shirt, a T-shirt that looks like Dr. Who's sweater vest, and a semi-tropical jacket. I'll still roast.
But maybe not as much as with the real sweater.

Spoonflower custom fabrics just happens to have a Dr. Who #7 Sweater Vest fabric.
This is a nicely designed imitation of a knit sweater. The fabric has a large section of ??? and VVV, plus stripes of green suitable for neck, arm, and waist openings.
It doesn't exactly match the Lovarzi 'original,' but it's close enough.
I've made 3 jumper look-alikes out of this fabric. See the PDF for lots of details; the attached images for an overview.
