“We were enjoying one of the snowiest winters in recent memory when Bonnie knit me this sweater. I put it on and did not take it off for three months. I got the steel roof on the new barn, logged next winter’s firewood and drove to Omaha, Nebraska, all in my Father/Son Pullover. It was a hit both in the woods and on the road and it is, without doubt, the most comfortable sweater I have ever worn.” - Peter Hagerty, founder of Peace Fleece
