Sharp List: Taylor Stitch Whaler Sweater

Sailors have impeccable tastes — especially when it comes to grizzled beards, swear words and rum. But the thing they do best of all, perhaps, is sweaters. Hefty, handsome, impenetrably warm sweaters.

Sweaters like this one, from Taylor Stitch, knit from heavyweight cotton in a Massachusetts workshop that’s been making ’em the same way for 104 years. Get your mitts on one, wear it into the ground this winter, and do your absolute best to resist asking everyone to call you “Ahab.”
