I’m even noticing in my favorite TV shows the knitwear of many of my favorite characters. For instance, recently, I started watching a new show on USA, Fairly Legal, on Thursday nights. I’m into cop and lawyer shows so this piqued my interest. The main character “Kate Reed” played by Sarah Shahi is a lawyer in her father’s law firm. The premiere of the show begins with her returning to the firm after his death and she has decided she doesn’t want to be a lawyer anymore but wants to help people, so she’s the firm’s mediator. Well I really got into the show and even found it very interesting, but I found myself paying more attention to the cable knit hat she is wearing when she’s riding the ferry. It stood out to me because cables are the bane of my existence, I can’t seem to get them right and this one looked very complicated and I thought how would someone even attempt to do that? But not only did I notice Kate’s hat, but later in the show you meet her assistant Leo who sports a couple of different sweater vests and regular sweaters that I couldn’t help but notice, they were very stylish, with classic designs and great colors. Matter of fact the one he’s wearing in the photo below reminds me of the Classic Camel Vest by Tara Jon Manning from the Men in Knits book, although the one Leo is wearing doesn’t have the cables, which is what I would prefer making.
Here are some of the knitwear that I've noticed while watching some of my favorite shows:
Sarah Shahi as "Kate Reed" in Fairly Legal Cable Hat |
Baron Vaughn as "Leo" - Kate Reed's assistant V-neck vest sweater |
Candace Accola as "Caroline" on CW's Vampire Diaries wearing short-sleeved lace shrug |
Right: Meaghan Rath as "Sally" in the SyFi Channel's new show Being Human wearing a short front/long back cardigan |
Chris Colfer as "Kurt" on Glee wearing a fair isle cardigan |
B.D. Wong as "Dr. George Huang" on Law & Order SVU wearing argyle v-neck pullover |
Have you taken more notice in the character's knitwear than the actual show? Tell me about it, I'd like to hear from you.
