fabric weights

by "BB" <ian@[EMAIL PROTECTED] > Mar 12, 2008 at 03:21 PM

Hi
Looking for wool fabric to make a waistcoat.
Ages since I had a suit made but seem to remember it went in ounces. I 
thought about 16 oz. When I got a suit altered I was told be lucky to find

it that heavy anymore. So I like a heavy fabric.
When they quote grams/m I assume a straight conversion but from what?
os/yd? 
And what about the width? When it's quoted is it quoted on a standard
width 
so each can be compared easily?
Cheers BB
