I've spent the better part of 5 hours today attempting to find ready-made alternative fabrics online that are at least very close. (My kingdom for a fabric district) I almost feel like someone just crochet his whole outfit. Looking at the super large images, it's a really odd weave.
These are the two closest finds. Both are basket weaves and both would need to be dyed and I'm not sure how well they'd take to dye.
