CE65 Stretch Fleece Pants	CE25 Habitat Hat	CE45 Fleece Gloves
Do-Sew Pattern Tracing Paper $5.49 per 5 yard roll

#CE75 Shell Overmitts & Gloves
These are unlined weather shells for your gloves or mittens. Keeping the shells separate allows you to replace wet liners as needed or simply adjust the warmth of your under layers to suit the conditions. Unlike other overmitts that are flat and awkward, these are sculpted to fit the hand. The wrist strap and elasticized cord are easy to adjust one-handed. Section inside describes mating these shells to Controlled Exposure #45 Fleece Gloves using Velcro. 

Five sizes cover hands ranging from 6" to 8½" long.

What Fabrics To Use?

•  Waterproof Breathables like Goretex, Ultrex and Storm Tech, Water Resistant Fabrics like Supplex or Waterproof fabrics like Pack Cloth or Cordura

#CE35 Fitted Gaiter
The goal here is to deliver a functional and adaptable design trimmed out in such a way that most folks can easily & inexpensively collect the ingredients and won’t need special tools although more demanding options are discussed inside. Size is determined by measurement around your boot cuff since these are form-fitting gaiters. Height of the gaiters is plotted directly from your own measurements.  This gaiter pattern design uses only readily available fabric, hardware and webbing. However, additional, high-performance options are described for the extra ambitious Gaiter “Cobbler”.

What Fabrics to Use?

• Bottom Shell - Waterproof and tough like coated Cordura.
• Bottom Lining - Waterproof & lighter weight like coated Packcloth or Oxford.
• Uppers - Waterproof-breathable woven fabrics or simply water repellent woven fabrics like heavy Goretex, Ultrex and Storm Tech.

#CE25 Habitat Hat 
The goals driving this hat design were functionality and versatility. Functional because it seals out the weather but converts for more pleasant conditions. Versatile because there are so many ways to wear it. View A consists of a separate Shell Hat and Fleece Liner. They are worn together for full protection. You can flip up one or both sets of ear flaps to cool down. The Fleece Liner worn alone fits under helmets or hoods and provides streamline insulation when you also need maximum breathability. View B is a one-piece, Insulated Shell Hat that is made with a heavier fleece lining. It’s for those wanting a straightforward, warm hat without keeping track of components.

Sizing:  Pattern includes sizes XS - XL fitting head circumferences from 18 to 24¹/₄" (45 - 62 cm).

• Shell Hat - Waterproof or water resistant woven fabric.
• Shell Hat Lining - Lightweight mesh or wicking fabric.
• Fleece Helmet - Polartec 200 fleece or equivalent
