this has become my everyday sweater. it is humble in several respects. the wool comes from a black sheep named Moose in Jefferson County, New York, and was spun at a neighboring solar powered mill. there is nothing fancy about it, which makes it easy to wear with everything. it has a hidden treasure of French grosgrain ribbon inside the front edges and hand stitched button holes. the extra short length and extra long ribs at the cuff make it stylish it its austerity.
