Today’s Matchup

Ready for the final poll of Knit Madness 2026? Get started with Google Forms, and/or make your way through the Bluesky polls, which you can find below.

Voting will close on Tuesday, March 31, three days from now. I’ll send out an email reminder two days in. And if you’re tired of hearing from me so often, remember: This is the last one!

Matchup: (13) How to Get to Heaven from Belfast vs (11) Shetland

Cables Champion: (13) How to Get to Heaven from Belfast (1×03, “The Ghost”)

The Sweater: A green cable-knit sweater

Who Wore It: Saoirse Shaw (Roisin Gallagher), a TV writer who joins two of her friends to attend the wake of the estranged member of their group. Needless to say, it probably doesn’t go as planned.

Replica: No

Notes: Repping Northern Ireland—as well as Lisa McGee’s trademarked comedic chaos. Selected mainly because I was on Netflix grabbing screenshots from Call the Midwife and the series (and the green cable-knit sweater) were on my homepage.

Previously Defeated: (4) Big Fish; (5) The Bear; (9) Inside Llewyn Davis; (2) Call the Midwife; (1) Twin Peaks

Miscellaneous/Neck Champion: (11) Shetland (10×02, “Episode 2”)

The Sweater: A light gray turtleneck sweater with bright green and forest green sections at the bottom and on the sleeves

Who Wore It: Morag McCabe (Leigh Biagi), the wife of Shetland’s police sergeant.

Replica: No

Notes: Repping the northern-most part of Scotland—as well as perhaps the biggest remote hotspot for murder and other assorted crimes since Cabot Cove. A pick selected from the reader survey I put out two months ago.

Previously Defeated: (6) The Brutalist; (14) Bugonia; (2) Star Trek: The Next Generation; (9) Die Hard 2; (9) All Creatures Great and Small
