The design of this stunning Men’s Fair Isle V Neck Jumper is derived from a jumper that was knitted in Fair Isle for the Prince of Wales, the future King Edward VIII

This jumper is woven in Shetland to a Fair Isle design based on the original jumper that was given to the Prince of Wales as a gift by James A Smith, a Shetland hosiery dealer
