This is the sweater that provides the same exceptional warmth and durability required by fishermen plying the waters of the Dingle Peninsula. Traditionally synonymous with Ireland's fishing trade, this crew-neck sweater is knitted in County Kildare from 100% wool with a generous rib stitch, forming a naturally lofty cable pattern that keeps out the cold while evoking a centuries-old Irish maritime motif of a wish of safety and good luck for fishermen. Its suede shoulder and elbow patches are faithful to the self-reliant, resourceful nature of the country's fisherfolk, who were known to sew patches onto their "jumpers" for reinforcement against the wear and tear of hauling ropes and nets over the shoulders. Oatmeal. Sizes M (42), L (44), and XL (46). (1 1/2 lbs.)
