In victory for literalism, someone actually knitted the Fargo sweater
FX’s marketing for Fargo featured an “ugly sweater” rendering of death in the frigid American north, an aesthetic that elegantly referenced the original Fargo film’s cross-stitch poster without duplicating it altogether. But while FX made the sweater image the centerpiece of its advertising campaign—even commissioning a crocheted wrap for a bus in New York City—the network never transformed the pattern into an honest-to-goodness sweater. (There is an official Fargo sweater T-shirt, though, which is ridiculous.)
