Penguin Couture

In the kill-me-with-cute category, the Penguin Jumpers Project collects wee sweaters for little penguins endangered by oil spills and other environmental pressures. The project is distributing these little knit sweaters all around Tasmania to be used in the event of something nasty going down a la Exxon Valdez. The oil gets in the birds feathers and destroys their insulatory properties.

My question: How well do these sweaters insulate when they're wet?
