      @pechelman I have a few Dehen pieces and numerous AA pieces and I agree with @Anesthetist , @tody , & @Mizmazzle that the AA is much less scratchy and more stretchy - overall - much more comfortable to wear and has a nicer hand feel to it imo. I only buy AA and SNS knits anymore for this reason with the AA being my personal favorite.

        No scratchy sensation from the Anderson, I do however get a mild irritation on my throat from the crewneck rubbing it if I wear it more then 5 days straight.

          I was playing with the idea of getting an Andersen-Andersen wool troyer this winter, but decided I needed something a bit more versatile so ended up getting a RMC Freedom Sleeve instead. But I own a wool watch cap and scarf from Andersen-Andersen and don't find them scratchy. I dont have a wool sensitivity, but a shaved head, so most hats are at least somewhat itchy, but not this one. The knit has a nice amount of natural stretchiness, and both definitely warm enough for my needs.

          I'll still grab a sweater at some point though. The one I tried felt amazing.

            This is a few weeks old. Been my winter attire:

            Sorry about the grumpy face. I was waiting for my youngest, who’s isn’t exactly fast when she doesn’t think it I needed.

            I’m very happy I went with the full zip navy.

                      This is great news - AA make the best sweaters imo and few retailers in the US carry them - excellent!

                              Cool - Andersen-Andersen is a great addition to the lineup here.

                                Haven’t heard about AA but all of this hype definitely has me intrigued. New rabbit hole? 🤔

                                  It’s not that much of a rabbit hole as their list of products is quite limited. And their products last really well, and wool should only be washed very rarely, so you don’t need that many items.

                                  However it’ll be a blow to a lot of us here that their indigo dyed products are about 30% more expensive than similar ones dyed differently 😂

                                    Okay, I think I like the Navy Full-Zip Pockets in hunting green, brown and grey. @TeflonDon I have waaaaay too much indigo so I'm safe! 👍🏻

                                      You have just done the window shopping I did yesterday. Some colors are not in my size (problem) - then I remembered the IH connection.

                                      Look forward to the video.

                                          My A-A watch cap and scarf are top notch. I still want to get a quarter zip eventually, but probably not this year. I need a new winter jacket and that'll do some decent damage to the clothing fund.
