Unicorn sweater

[hectic]

Check out Edwin, they do some nice knitwear pieces, you might be out of luck on the non-EPZ manufacture though.

BTW: In case you don't find your grail:

This is the closest damn thing I  can find. It fits me funny though. Such a beautiful sweater though.

Well apart from one or two of the main points, it's spot on :). Might be easier to find a unicorn at this rate…

nice T&A, that's damn near a chicken dinner. Of course this isn't my unicorn so either way…

Wow T&A! You pretty much nailed it! Thanks for digging that up. I'm bookmarking that for sure.

I had a similar search for a leather jacket at one point until I discovered Aero. I tried to build a perfect leather jacket with them that would be as versatile as possible, but in the end, I'd still like another jacket that fits me a little differently and works for different occasions. There is no "perfect" anything.

I decided to go with the Best Made Dehen sweater that I linked above. I've been searching for the "perfect" sweater for years, and the fact is, I'm never going to find it (Although T&A came damn close!). I concluded yesterday that I'm after perfection, and that doesn't really exist. The best I can do is find a piece that makes me happy for what it is. I was given a great wool zip cardigan for a birthday present about 13 years ago, and I wore it all the time. I wore it out, and I have been trying to fill that void ever since. I think I was hanging onto this idea of what this sweater should be. I don't dress like a 21 year old anymore and trying to replace a sweater that I wore at that age doesn't really make sense.

The Best Made X Dehen Shawl neck sweater coat is insanely robust. It's got hidden elbow patches, it weighs over 3 lbs, it's 100% wool, it's made in USA, and I think it looks nice. I'll post some fit pics soon.  It's not perfect, but it's close enough and I like it

Thanks for your help gents!

T&A might have just cost me $220  :o

Looking forward to the fit pics seawolf. I've been eyeing that cardigan since Best Made came out with it.

Thing of beauty… But I think I'd be an XL in that... Which isn't a problem, but how is bee-hurling Mega gonna fit in this?..

[Megatron1505]

Good question my fellow Triumvirate member….I shall quest for my perfect 50's dad sweater.
