But I can explain...

At this point you are probably thinking, where in the world did this blog title come from? The best answer that I can give you is that it really did not come from anywhere too exciting:

I am a big fan of sweaters, in fact, whenever i go shopping, i almost always buy a sweater. Sweaters like all thing can be made from different materials. Cotton, wool and cashmere are among the acceptable ones. However, acrylic, nylon and viscose are not. I admit, i am guilty of owning a few synthetic sweaters, but they are all blended materials (ie: cotton-viscose blend). I remember once when i got this 100% acrylic sweater and it gave me a horrendous itch on my arms and back.

Here is a rating of different sweater materials:

from most soft to least:

1. Cashmere 2. Merino Wool 3. Cotton 4. Normal Wool 5. Synthetic

from most expensive to least

1. Cashmere 2. Merino Wool 3. Normal Wool 4. Cotton 5. Synthetic

Obviously, comfort varies directly with price. So i guess you really get what you pay for no matter what coupons you try to use that was stolen from your friend's friend's daughter's mother (aka your friend's friend).

So i guess my answer to the question is like acrylic sweaters, this blog doesn't make sense. Although they are well intentioned, they should not theoretically exist. In the end, this blog just takes up address on blogspot that someone might want i can sell for profit...you know, like WUFPH.com
