The Dude cardigan was inspired by the movie, The Big Lebowski. The original, as featured in the movie, is a Pendleton sweater made at Winona Knitting Mills (now closed down) during the sixties and seventies.This Dude's Sweater resembles the Cowichan Sweater worn by The Dude in The Big Lebowski.
The Cowichan handmade knits here in Canada. In The province of British Columbia, Vancouver Island.
Last summer I was at the island and saw couple of women knitting these sweaters using the famous Buffalo yarn.
In the picture I have knitted the sweater itself with merino wool, shawl collar and sewn a zipper to keep you warm from the cold.
Here is a video I made on youtube,
