"Young, hip, professional, busy, prosperous enough to spend $500 on wool for a sweater."

Hey, you can get decent sweaters for less than that if you know where to look, or you can anticipate them becoming available.

For example, I expect that very soon the McCain campaign will be having a fire sale on sweaters.

I first read that as "preposterous enough to spend $500 on wool for a sweater". Makes more sense that way....

$500 and you still have to knit it to get a sweater.

If these prices are an indication of what happens when a hobby goes trendy, I sure hope cross stitching stays dorky forever.

Just what I thought -- you pay $500 and STILL have to knit your own sweater! Are they assuming that these women don't value their money or their time? Alpha moms are smarter than that.
