St Andrews Fair Isle Jumper

The Fair Isle jumper became a symbol of British style after Edward, Prince of Wales (1894-1972), was photographed wearing one at St Andrews in 1921. This hand-knitted jumper in earthy tones of khaki green, rust, red, blues and cream pays tribute to the enduring popularity of Fair Isle knitting, which originated in the Shetland Islands and was celebrated for its intricate patterns and use of natural dyes. In a relaxed fit, pull-over style with ribbed cuffs and hem. The tradition continues to inspire knitwear today.
