Ten Winters Teaching on the Mountain. This Is the Sweater I Would Put in Your Hands First.
For the women who ski, and for the ones who used to and still miss it every first snow. Here’s why this is the one I’d hand you before opening day.
Nancy Owner of Nancy Susan Moulton, Jackson Hole November 2026 5 min read
Before I opened Nancy Susan Moulton five years ago, I spent my winters teaching skiing on the mountain. I loved it with everything I had. It just couldn’t pay the rent, so I opened a little shop off the Town Square with my parents’ help and a wood stove in the corner. My one rule hasn’t changed since: if it doesn’t work on the fortieth cold morning, it doesn’t go on the rail.
The mountain opens in two weeks. Every November, women come in to warm up by my stove and tell me some version of the same thing. “I don’t ski anymore.” A knee, a hip, a husband who stopped going, kids who grew up and moved away. And then they look out the window toward the mountain, and you can see it on their faces. They never stopped loving it.
On the mountain, I learned that the best skiers I knew weren’t always the ones on skis. Some of them hadn’t clicked into a binding in twenty years. They still belonged up there.
That’s who this sweater is for. There are six things I’d tell you about it, in the order I’d point them out.
Every skier is stitched on, mid-turn. You can feel them with your fingertips.

The skiers are embroidered on, not printed.
Every little skier on this sweater is stitched on: red pants, blue jackets, yellow skis, one with her poles in the air and one mid-fall with his skis crossed. Run your fingers over them and you can feel each one. Nothing to crack, peel or fade by spring.

“This sweater feels soft the moment you put it on, and it is the one I keep reaching for whenever the mornings turn chilly.”

They go all the way around.
The skiers run down the front, across the back and all the way down both sleeves. There’s no plain side, and nothing looks unfinished from behind when you’re standing in line for coffee.
The back is just as full as the front. That’s usually the side people ask about.

“I liked having several patterns to choose from, and it was easy to find one that felt like me. I would happily order another.”

A turtleneck that keeps the wind out.
On the mountain, the first thing I checked on every student was their neck, because that’s where the cold gets in. This one has a tall ribbed turtleneck that you can wear up on a cold morning or fold down by the fire.

“The fit is relaxed in the right way. Comfortable, flattering, and easy to wear with jeans or trousers.”

A relaxed shape that layers.
It’s cut with room through the body and the shoulders, so it goes over a shirt without pulling and under a coat without bunching. Ribbed cuffs keep the sleeves where you put them, and a ribbed hem sits at the hip.

“I use it now for a couple weeks and my friends which have seen them are loving it, they ordered also and loving them.”

A soft color that goes with everything you own.
The body is a pale heather, close to the color of fresh snow, which lets all the little skiers do the talking. It goes with jeans, cords, black pants and every dark winter coat you already have.

“Warm enough for a cold day, but never too heavy indoors. It has that cozy feeling without being bulky.”

For the women who ski, and the ones who used to.
Some of the women who buy this are on the mountain three days a week. Some of them haven’t skied since 2003, and some never skied at all and just love the little man with his skis crossed. It comes in sizes S through 5XL, at one price.
On the porch after the first real snow. Turtleneck up, and warm enough to forget the coat for a minute.

“I have had more compliments on the pattern than any sweater I have bought in years. It feels classic without looking old-fashioned.”

A sweater for the mountain shouldn’t only belong to the people on it.
Why everything is 60% OFF this month
This month Nancy Susan Moulton turns five. Same little shop, same wood stove in the corner, same Town Square.
Five years ago this was a girl who loved the snow and couldn’t make a living from it, an empty room, and my parents believing in me when the idea still felt too big to say out loud. Today it’s my full-time life. So to say thank you, everything in the shop is 60% off for the anniversary. This sweater is $49.95, down from $125.
It’s not a closing-down sale. I’m not going anywhere. Free shipping, 30 days to change your mind, and when your size sells out, it’s gone until next winter.

The mountain opens in two weeks, and the holidays come right behind it. If you’re going to add one warm thing to your closet this season, this is where I’d start, while your size is still on the shelf.

OWNER · NANCY SUSAN MOULTON · JACKSON HOLE, WYOMING
Nancy taught skiing on the mountain for years before opening Nancy Susan Moulton just off the Town Square in 2021, with her parents’ help and a wood stove in the corner. Half the town still comes in to warm up before they shop. You do not have to live in Wyoming to come in out of the cold.
