From their blog:
We at Cordings became aware of Salt Water New England, created by Muffy Aldrich a few years ago.... We sat down with her for a virtual afternoon tea (with scones!) and asked her about her style and living in New England.

ReplyDeletegreat interview/chat!
ReplyDeleteWonderful. Congratulations. A good long chat and plenty of space to expound your views. I love Cordings; for me it's the craftsmanship, the attention to detail, the authenticity. I was surprised there was no mention of the affinity (good and bad) between preppy and the Sloan Ranger look.
ReplyDeleteWhat could possibly be a "bad" affinity?
DeletePerception that Sloane Rangers were obnoxious entitled rich kids. Goes for many people's view of preppies at the time, come to think of it.
DeleteGood for you! Classic style goes along way. Thank you for this blog.
ReplyDeleteIn THE OFFICIAL SLOANE RANGER HANDBOOK (UK, Ebury Press, 1982) New England preppies are referred to as "cousins," so there we are!
ReplyDeletePleasant read! If only you could have nudged them to offer some of the men's knitwear in smaller sizes (XS/S)!
ReplyDeleteWOW! How nice that you made the Cordings website and what a nice interview. Well deserved, too. I admit, I learned a lot. Very interesting indeed. Well done!
ReplyDeleteCongrats on being recognized by Cordings! Always enjoy reading your blog -- especially during these very challenging times.
ReplyDeleteMs. Aldrich,
ReplyDeleteSome of us--for some odd reason--are unable to access the Cordings website. Could you please reprint the interview in full?
Thank you.
Looking very forward to reading this tonight after The Young Master's bedtime.
ReplyDeleteBest Regards,
Heinz-Ulrich

ReplyDeleteNice interview. Thanks for posting, and thanks for your site -- a true respite in these troubled and troubling times.
ReplyDeleteBravo Muffy!
ReplyDeleteGreat style. Great read.
ReplyDeleteI love the Cordings store in London. I stay with a friend about 100 feet from there and spend a lot of time shopping.
