betinapple, not sure ... he only ever told me recovery for plan a

but i know i can't end up with a scar from an incision that was never made.
one thing i like to do is make a mental note of 'shortage' items (like wool sweaters in this case) & start collecting them in future seasons if i feel like my shopping for the current season should be complete based on what i've already bought. sometimes i'll also 'borrow' an item or two from the next season and buy things right away. it all balances out in the end ...
so next year you could buy another warm wool sweater, and so on each year till you're happy with the selection.
i have a heavy hand-knit cotton sweater that i wear on cold days ... someone complimented it & asked if it was new. that's when i realized it was 15+ years old

it's teal with an intarsia southwestern pattern--i enjoy the color.
