Christopher Fischer Fox Sweater in Cashmere
Trad Needlepoint Fox Sweater in Cotton
I like mine better. From The Trad Archives, 27 April 2009
"My ex sister-in-law needle pointed this sweater as a wedding gift almost
21 years ago. I'll always remember her even though we haven't spoken
since the divorce. I'll think about the superficial nature of clothes
and then I wear this Fox on a Spring afternoon and am taken back to a
time that no longer exists and to people I no longer know. The soul of
something hand made with the power to take me back in time never ceases
to amaze me."
You had me at the sight of long legs.
ReplyDeleteHaving had the good fortune to actually witness this sweater in real life, I am amazed at the quality.
I like the personal story to it, too.
Nice post! Things with sentimental value to us are really powerful in the sense they take us back to the past. BTW, the way it's handcrafted is exquisite.
