Vintage Mens Hand Knitted Fair Isle Slipover Sweater Vest Beige Blue Brown 1970s 1980s UK L
A vintage hand-knitted fair isle slipover or sleeveless jumper, made circa 1970s/1980s, probably using a 1940s/50s pattern. Nicely knitted (but not so skilfully sewn together!) in yarns which feel like a wool & synthetic blend, with an overall snowflake type of design in a mix of browns, blue & off-white on a beige/oatmeal background.
Please study the photographs carefully - they form an important part of the description.
Size: Suggested UK L depending on desired fit (Please check measurements below)
All measurements are external, taken with the garment laid flat, to be doubled where appropriate (with approx. metric equivalent):

Length neck to hem: 26 1/2” (67cm)

Condition:
In very good condition overall, with light wear & a few bobbles - the seams are not very neatly sewn together, resulting in some lumps & unevenness (see close ups). Has been steamed prior to listing but a slight perfumed smell remains.
Shown on a mannequin with a 38" chest.
