KoreAm reports that a knitwear company owned by Eddie and Elizabeth Park was hired by Ralph Lauren to make the red, white and blue sweaters worn by Team USA.

I’m really proud of what I did,” Eddie Park said. “All my employees really appreciate that Ralph Lauren gave us the opportunity to make a USA Olympic sweater.”
