Bean’s Norwegian Sweater

Sunday, October 25th, 2009 by Jon

 


Bean's Norwegian Sweater

L.L. Bean have dug through their 96-year-old archives to bring back
this classic Norwegian Fisherman’s sweater in a simple black/white knit.
Made out of un-scoured wool, which is naturally water-resistant, the
restored sweat is designed to be as warm and durable as it was when
sported by seafarers decades ago.

Carrying on a storied tradition of warmth, our legendary Norwegian Sweater
makes a return this year. Expertly knit in Norway, where they know how
to combat bone-chilling temperatures, today’s sweater is every bit as
rough-and-ready as its predecessor. Iconic bird’s-eye weave adds texture
and style. Made of naturally water-repellent wool. Hand wash and dry
flat or dry clean.
The Maine Hunting Shoe

  • Made of naturally water-resistant wool for legendary warmth
  • Expertly knit in Norway
  • Iconic bird’s-eye weave adds texture and style
  • $129.00

Sometimes you just can’t resist. Only large sizes left online and I found a medium in-store. How could you go wrong with this look? right!  Besides winter is back for a few days and hopefully longer here in wet Southern California.

Gilded Age Handknit Cardigan has arrived

Monday, October 6th, 2008 by Jon

The waiting is over. This morning my new Gilded Age Hand-knit Cardigan arrived from Canada from s|sense.com. If you like Irish style fishermen knit sweaters I think you will like this one. It is not scratchy like the 100% wool ones. This sweater is 70% wool and 30% cashmere, very soft. Nice cabling and detailing on the entire sweater. This sweater is definitely a new favorite.

Something new, I could not resist. Can you believe the snowflake cap was red and not burgundy to match the sweater? I opted for these 2 hats in burgundy.

MARTIN + OSA

Thursday, November 29th, 2007 by Jon

Well it looks like I found myself a new favorite place to shop. Martin + OSA just opened at Century City here in Los Angeles and it has quite a selection of very nice clothing. To my surprise I was told that it is owned by American Eagle Outfitters. The store is EXTREMELY nice and very well done. Everything is just right! The store is done with a European flair and has amazing dressing rooms and personal shopper style customer service. This is the 18th store in the U.S. and it appears that many more will be coming.

I picked up this really nice grey heavy cable knit v-neck tennis sweater (pictured below) and a navy v-neck cashmere sweater. handknit-tennis-v-neck.JPG
