"On a trip to Guernsey in 2017, I bought five Guernsey sweaters. However, I bought them from Guernsey Woollens. It's a family run business, and less expensive than Le Tricoteur. Paul and his son were very gracious, showed me their operation, and even delivered the sweaters to my hotel. Even better, they were 55 pounds, as opposed to the usual 78. Whattah bahgan! As much as I like the original wool Guernsey, I find that my "go to" sweater is a cotton, crew-neck one that I bought. It's a great weight - substantial, but not too heavy - and can be worn year round." (Comment)
Nice presentation, with the pictures of the classic dark blue sweater interspersed with beautiful pictures of the seashore.
ReplyDeleteWe used to have some Guernsey cows but none of them wore sweaters .
ReplyDeleteLOL!
DeleteIf you visit their shop on Guernsey, sweaters are only 55 pounds, instead of the 78 on-line.
ReplyDeleteI really like that jumper !
ReplyDeleteMy all time favorite sweater!!! I got mine from shipcanvas.com (yes, pure British wool, the real deal) and paid right around $100 USD with shipping (did the math after currency conversion and it worked out good). Great for fall and winter sailing or just bumming around the harbor. Super soft and thick. Weighs about 3 lbs.
