Knitting the Ultimate Cyberpunk Cardigan (How Blade Runner Predicted the Future)

The most unrealistic part was probably using 100% sheep's wool.

Did Sir Ridley Scott's Blade Runner (1982) predict the future, AKA our present? Based on the 1968 sci-fi novel Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep?, the dystopian world of the future has only become more and more familiar as time goes on.

So what better time than the present to knit my own cardigan version of Rick Deckard's iconic cyberpunk trench coat... totally freehand.
