Does anyone know where it came from or any similar please ? I loved the contrast between the traditional pattern and the modern colour.

a bit of a stab in the dark since I didn't see the show, but the description reminded me of this. www.tedbaker.com/uk/Womens/Clothing/Knitwear/MAYSI-Fairisle-jumper-Nude-Pink/p/106857-57-NUDE-PINK

That's not it - but I like! :)

cartoontrickster · 07/12/2013 21:45

ah well worth a try. it is rather lovely isnt it Smile

scarlet76 · 07/12/2013 21:45

Googled it - Topshop

SpringyReframed · 07/12/2013 21:46

No, it's not that one. It has what I think is called a "saddle" of pattern around the neck/shoulders. You knit them on a circle with 4 needles. I have googled briefly and I cant see any in any colour so I am wondering if fairisle is the right description?
I havent tweeted Sophie yet as guess she (and her team) are probably busy with the dance off now!

Thanks Scarlett. I am totally gutted by the "itchy" review comment though. Hate itchy. Sad

Not sure how to link on my iPad, but I found it in topshop

scarlet76 · 07/12/2013 22:03

Yes. I saw that review! Am still tempted to give it a go. Free delivery at the moment.

SpringyReframed · 08/12/2013 09:21

Yes me too. SEB had a black long sleeved t shirt on under it, and you would really wouldn't you with such a chunky jumper? Grin

Jack Wills have a lovely bright pink cable knit one in too. I think it's lambs wool though so itchy. That's why I've not bought it. I bought the men's hot pink cashmere v neck instead, it's plain but much more comfortable.

Hi, Vintage Ardour on the Etsy website has one for sale in size small.The pattern is not Fairisle but is an Icelandic sweater design - normally made of Lopi Wool. Please see the Nordic store website for an array of jumpers in this design for both men and women. They do infact make jumpers to special oder sometimes and may very help you out with the bright pink one. hope this helps ( a huge fan of icelandic clothing )

lopisweater1 · 13/12/2013 19:29

ps the one on Etsy is a slightly different pattern but nordic store ones are exactly the same design
