Product Description
Originally crafted for seafaring, cable-knit sweaters have a long and rich tradition. They are rumored to have began on the Irish islands of Aran and the ones woven there were primarily for fisherman. They were knitted from untreated yarn and were water repellent. They went on to become a mainstay of both men and women's fashions for the ensuing decades. They are prized for their warmth. The bulky appearance the cabling yields has become a style icon. Westport Black brings this season's cable knit sweater in a cotton-wool blend. It's a clear winner when you're in need of a strong layer to brave the cold.
