Occasionally, we have the opportunity to collaborate with people to create designs that embody an iconic aspect of Canadian life. Whether it's emblazoning environmentalist David Suzuki's face on a sweater, recreating the classic CBC logo in stitches, or working with a First Nations artist like Corinne Hunt, we treasure these projects as part of our Canadian identity.

David Suzuki, Co-Founder of the David Suzuki Foundation, is an award-winning scientist, environmentalist, broadcaster and Canadian icon. He may be best known for presenting the complexities of the natural sciences in his radio and television programs, but to us, he's a local man who's dedicated to making the world a better, greener place.
This was one of our first experimental sweaters. We were curious to see how complicated knitting could get and learned that intarsia knitting, or "picture knitting", has no limitations. Days after posting a photo of the completed sweater and blogging about it, an employee at the David Suzuki Foundation contacted us. We ended up donating the sweater to the DSF, and after that we auctioned off a few more. We are now proud to be including this official DSF sweater in our shop, and we're donating 20% of proceeds to the Foundation.

We designed this sweater, featuring the iconic CBC logo and zig-zags representing analog radio waves, for our brother-in-law who lives in England. We knew he grew up watching and listening to CBC programming, and we wanted to give him a special connection to home. He loved the sweater and was happy for the nostalgic gesture.
Though we blogged about the sweater, trademark restrictions prevented us from offering it for sale. That is, until CBC Radio 3's Grant Lawrence somehow noticed the sweater. He went nuts about it and provided us with great exposure on air. This one time gift to an ex-pat has finally been licensed as the official CBC sweater.
The female model is 5' 9", 125lbs and wearing a medium size. For a snugger fit, a small size is suggested.

Here's another CBC classic you can wear... The Official Hockey Night in Canada Sweater! The Hockey Night in Canada logo was used when the show first aired on CBC television back in 1952. This was the big moment for hockey broadcasting going from radio to television.
Be a part of commemorating this moment in history by owing your own hand-knit and Canadian made, Hockey Night in Canada Sweater!
A history to remember - 1952: Hockey Night in Canada is born. Only weeks after television broadcasting began in Canada, Hockey Night in Canada hit the air for the first time with a game between the Toronto Maple Leafs and the Boston Bruins at Maple Leaf Gardens. Airing once a week, the show was hosted by Foster Hewitt and began with the signature opening “Hello Canada and hockey fans in the United States.” During his career, Mr. Hewitt coined phrases such as “He shoots, he scores.” In 1958, his son Bill took over hosting responsibilities. Both have been inducted into the Hockey Hall of Fame.

The Bear logo was created by Bob Thomas, and was first seen on the 1973 Bear's Choice album cover. Bear was Owsley Stanley, the Dead's longtime sound engineer and, in the early days, benefactor. He was always known as Bear. When the album came out in 1973, it was decided to make these bears the logo for the album. Bear always said they were marching bears, not dancing bears.

Designed in 1969, the logo was the collaborative work of Owsley Stanley and artist Bob Thomas. Owsley was inspired by a freeway sign he happened to pass by—a round shape divided by a bold white line into an orange half and a blue half. The general shape and colours stood out, and Owsley had the notion that a blue and red design with a lightning bolt with make a cool logo. He shared his idea with Bob Thomas, who then drew up plans of the design.
Originally, there was no skull face—the logo was simply a circle divided with the lightning bolt. The skull face was added on a few days later, as a way to symbolize the “Grateful Dead.”
