It is said that every stitch used in the creation of the cable pullover originally meant something to the people knitting and wearing them. The cable itself was a wish for safety and good luck when at sea; the honeycomb signified hard work; the diamond was hope for success and wealth, and the basket stitch a prayer for plentiful catches and harvests.With that in mind, we hope that the mix of stitches that go to make up this Made In Scotland 100% British Wool Arran Cable Slim Fit Crew Neck brings you every wish, should you choose to purchase one. And why wouldn’t you?Every hand-finished piece of true, Scots-produced knitwear uses 100% pure British lambswool and traditional techniques to create its detailed cable patterning. The tapering, slim fit adds a more contemporary look to the overall shape of this ruggedly handsome pullover.
