Kinger cosplay 99% done

WE ARE SO CLOSE TO DONE!

if you haven’t seen this yet, I’m making a Kinger cosplay for the movie premiere of ep9 of TADC hehe.

All we need is better gloves (which are on the way now!)

green fabric time again! I'm done weaving.

Well, I still have 3 skeins of yarn left over, but I am done for now.

The original plan was to make trousers, but I don't think I want to do that anymore. Instead, I want to make the Bog Coat! Except, of course, the iconic pattern requires a fuckoff huge peace of fabric, and I do not have that. I have 2 narrow stripes. So I'm using the term "bog coat" to mean "simple T-shaped jacket with minimal sewing".

This is roughly what I thought I might do (sorry no schematic sketch but you get the idea):

But I still haven't washed the fabric, so depending on how much width I lose, I will have to revise that. I initially wasn't too sure about the horizontal stripes, but the more I think about it, the more I like it.

That leaves just one problem. Namely, lining.

I should probably line the jacket, both for structure, and because I think it will continue to shed (weaving made a mess like you wouldn't believe). But what to use?

My most trusted fabric store has a lyocell twill that looks interesting. It's smooth but not too shiny, and quite heavy; the listing says it's 160g/m². But supposedly still flowy. There's really nothing speaking against it, other than me being irrationally prejudiced against viscose fabrics.

I have narrowed it down to these colours that I can't chose between:

Listed as "ocre", a light sandy yellow.

Listed as "cinnamon", reddish brown.

And these 2 shades of green, one lighter, one darker.

BUT! Then I found this amazing checkered flannel, that is just. I mean look at it. Can you imagine it in combination with the green wool. Iron age vibes off the charts.

Pros: so cozy, would look cool I think. Cons: Cotton is really not great for the environment, and this is so cheap it can't have been produced ethically, the listing says this is printed??? tf, why isn't it woven.

So, in conclusion, help me chose?

Which lining should I buy?

ocre lyocell

cinnamon lyocell

light green lyocell

dark green lyocell

checkered flannel
