Specifically, The Sweater. Here is the sweater:
Here is the sweater as part of its runway "look":
It's a nice sweater, but very loosely knitted. Now, guess how much it costs. Just the sweater, not the whole look. Got a number in mind? Okay, now scroll down.... it cost....
$2,760 U.S.
Yes. Almost three thousand dollars - which, even if the dollar isn't doing well this week, is a whole heck of a lot of money for one little sweater that, quite frankly, doesn't even offer all that much warmth. This, my friends, is why most of us have learned to knit for ourselves. (And seriously - where can we get in on this three-thousand-bucks-a-sweater deal?)

$3000 would buy a whole lot of yarn and fabric. I would rather do that as I didn't like the sweater. Your sweaters are much prettier.
