What does it take to truly make a handmade suit? If you want to do every step of the process on your own, it takes a lot and a lot and a lot of work. Think about the materials that go into a suit: the cotton, the wool, the knitting, the silk and more. You have to pick the cotton, you have to shear the sheep, you have to learn how to knit, you have to raise silkworms and more.

Andy George of How to Make Everything did just that and it took him over 10 months and $4000 and he still didn’t quite get enough materials. Watch him do everything below:
