New sweater style! A short-sleeved sweater top in Fair Isle knit! Complete your 1930’s and 1940’s wardrobe with this warm, woolen piece in beautiful colors.
The new Fair Isle top features puff sleeves, a low turtleneck and buttons on the left shoulder. It comes in a range of easy-to-match colors and is of course in pure, soft wool. It’s long enough to be tucked into your pants but can also be worn over. The dense jacquard knitting pattern makes it surprisingly warm.
The colorful patterns originate from Fair Isle, Northern Scotland and have inspired knitters for decades, popularized by The Prince of Wales in the 1920’s, who was seen wearing sweater vests in these patterns. Since then, it has been a classic sweater pattern for both men and women.
