13. I bought a vintage one w/ a curling motif this past summer

At an antique store; I'm wearing in my first curling league season this year. I have a picture of it somewhere; it's sharp, man...

14. Get one!

It will last you a long time.
Almost bought some yarn at the Victoria Valu Village that is used to make them. Another customer told me the yard is hard to work with and I am a novice so I passed.
The sweaters look great.

16. I used to have one with a very similar pattern years ago. Forwarned they are warm but heavy.

Only wear them in cold dry conditions. They
are close knit so rain doesn't get through
but they hold water and take a long time to dry.

Also do not store them hung up or they will stretch.
