MISS SWEATER GIRL



The transition from summer to fall in the Bay Area can be a troubling time. Just as I've prepared for the colds and the rains, hot days pop in to confuse and dehydrate me. I am wearing tiny sundresses by day and knitting scarves and berets by night.

What I long for is SWEATER WEATHER!

But look, what do we see here, a contest for who wears sweaters the best! YES!

I bring you MISS SWEATER GIRL of 1956.







In 1957, they introduced Mr. Sweater Guy to share the glory with the Miss Sweater Girls. Sponsored by the Wool Bureau and Knitted Outerwear Foundation.








Still dreaming of my perfect sweater for the fall: fuzzy, CROPPED and pastel colored. Once I have it, I will be sure to do this dance in it.
