I wouldn't have thought of using jersey for a kaftan, but the print is quite dashing, so hopefully it will work well.Pennyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14793895660650364685noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5886770962693197798.post-43788270557863638352020-11-30T06:48:36.529-08:002020-11-30T06:48:36.529-08:00Thanks for the tip.
