Mister Rogers Raglan Rib Alpaca Cardigan

$205.00

His most-worn style, in Burgundy — Said to have been Fred Rogers' favorite cardigan — the style he reached for more than any other, across more colors and more episodes than any other in the collection. Faithfully reproduced with the original raglan diagonal sleeve, ribbed collar, cuffs and hem, and smooth metal zipper. Officially licensed by the Fred Rogers Company.
As seen in the film — The burgundy colorway is the one worn by Tom Hanks as Fred Rogers in A Beautiful Day in the Neighborhood (2019). It is not just a reproduction — it is the sweater from that scene.
Alpaca, not wool — Handknit from 100% alpaca in Peru, it is softer and lighter than sheep's wool, naturally hypoallergenic, and built to last — the kind of sweater that earns its place at the front of the closet for years.
Fair Trade, unisex, six sizes — Sustainably harvested and knit under Fair Trade guidelines. Unisex sizing from Size 1 through Size 6 fits men and women alike — because this sweater, like kindness, belongs to everyone. Learn more about our Pure Alpaca guarantee here.

Product Details

Fred Rogers wore many cardigans, but this one — the raglan zip, in burgundy — was said to be his favorite. The style he returned to most. And when Tom Hanks wore it as Fred Rogers in A Beautiful Day in the Neighborhood, a generation saw it again and felt what they had always felt: that someone had gone to the trouble of making something warm, on purpose, for them. This is that sweater. Every original detail is here: the diagonal raglan seam with ribbing down the sleeve, the ribbed collar, cuffs and hem, and the smooth metal zipper that zipped up at the start of every visit to the Neighborhood.

Designed in the USA and handknit in Peru from 100% alpaca by artisan knitters working under Fair Trade guidelines, it is softer than wool, naturally hypoallergenic, and built to be worn for years — exactly as Fred Rogers wore his. Unisex sizing in six sizes fits every neighbor. Officially licensed by the Fred Rogers Company.

"When I say it's you I like, I'm talking about that part of you that knows that life is far more than anything you can ever see or hear or touch. That deep part of you that allows you to stand for those things without which humankind cannot survive. Love that conquers hate, peace that rises triumphant over war, and justice that proves more powerful than greed." - Fred Rogers Commencement address at Dartmouth College June 9, 2002.
