Fellwalking Sweater

This Hong Kong made sweater is easily identified by the distinctive shoulder seams that run to the neckline.

From the Fall and Holiday 1987 catalogue: “A heathery pullover inspired by our rambles and scrambles in the fells (mountains) of England’s Lake District. We spun Shetland wool–beloved for its felicitous blend of warmth and lightness–in three soft earth-and-sky hues, then added subtle nubs and flecks of color like the wildflowers in the English landscape. We were so pleased with the result that we made it fully machine-washable and dryable–the better to keep it with us always, in drafty castle and damp pub, rowing on lochs and trekking across moors.”
