You probably speak French. You probably know your quarterhorse from your mustang. And you probably already know that a "French trotter" is a horse and not just a Paris-based shop that stocks clothing and housewares in subdued, absurdly good taste. I certainly didn't have to Wikipedia that to make sure I didn't say something dumb about pigs feet. French Trotters (store, not horse) has sourced a collection of handsome knits from Brittany for the Fall/Hiver 12 collection of their in-house line. Available in two-tone fair isle, or tones of deep mustard, rust and olive, these sweaters may make it look like you studied abroad and brought something back other than a phrasebook and an affected penchant for Gauloises. We are KILLING you behind your back for the Gauloises.
