Knit that actually keeps you warm
Olwen doesn't trust anything that crinkles. Against the damp Welsh cold she trusts tight knit and good wool. No plastic. She can tell good wool with her eyes closed, by the weight and the smell of lanolin, and the mustard sweater in the portrait she knits herself every so many winters. Well, almost every winter.
On the sweatshirt you don't see the wool, you see the portrait of a hare who knows how to bundle up. Good wool weighs more than you'd expect. The rest is in her biography: the valley, the winters, why the sweater is mustard.
