anyone know what kind of fabric I should use for a jawas robe? a few sites i went to suggested burlap but i think that'll look terrible, feel awful and be hot as blazes. i thought about making it out of the same material "a-shirts" or beaters are made out of but i was told that material is very hard to work with. any suggestions?

I believe it is called "Monks Cloth". But dont quote me. If you cant find it in brown, you can dye it with Rit dye. Hope that helps. :thumbs:

The proper fabric is monk cloth. Usually available at Joann's, but only in the lighter shades so that would have to be dyed. The darker brown can sometimes be found on-line, but it's hit-or-miss that way, obviously.
