When talking with a friend about favorite clothes, she professed her love for a bulky pullover that she always wears for dog walks and hikes. Her only complaints: She wished it were a little longer, to wear with leggings, and she wished it had a big pocket, like a favorite sweatshirt. Done and done. A long, simple pullover, with a kangaroo pocket, all in cozy Quince & Co. Puffin. Just right.
