TWEEDYDON'S FIRST GREAT SWEATER MEGATHREAD OF FALL 2016!

I have a whole slew of wonderful sweaters to pass on today, including some Ivy classics, such as saddle-shoulder Shetlands from Scotland, Scottish cashmere, handknits, and a wonderful cashmere sweater from Langrock!


As always, I offer FREE SHIPPING IN THE USA: International inquiries are welcome, with shipping at reduced cost.

Also as always, ALL OFFERS ARE VERY WELCOME!

Please PM with interest and offers![/B

1) Classic Aran sweater by Cladyknit. Made in Ireland. VERY SMALL! Excellent condition. Hand finished. Chest: 20; Sleeve (measured like a shirt): 26; Length: 22. Just $25.





2) GORGEOUS Fair Isle sweater. Made in Scotland. Men's Large Regular. Excellent condition! Chest: 24; Sleeve: 33 1/2; Length: 27 1/4. Asking just $25.






3) WONDERFUL lined wool zippered cardigan! A lovely blend of the traditional and the contemporary, this Aran sweater has a zippered front and a drawstring hem for extra warmth. It is also fleece lined, and so would serve very well as outerwear on chilly days and evenings. Made in Ireland (I assume) by Carragdonn, this is in Very Good condition; it has some superficial white marks in the lining, as shown. Chest: 21; Sleeve: 32 1/4; Length: 25. Asking just $22.

4) CLASSIC SHETLAND SWEATER! Made in the UK. Please note that this is a Woman's size Medium; but since these sweaters are cut the same for both men and women this would also work perfectly well for a smaller man. This is in excellent condition! Chest: 21 1/4; SLeeve: 33; Length: 23. Asking just $22.






5) WONDERFUL AND RARE! This is absolutely wonderful! Langrock was THE Ivy Style store, holding fast to what it termed the "American look" until the 1990s, when it closed--it was the ONLY retailer never to sell darted jackets! Langrock's wares were all of the absolute best quality available, and this cashmere sweater is no exception; incredibly soft and luxurious, this is long-staple cashmere that's now exceptionally rare--this bears almost no relationship to the mall cashmere sweaters that are now so common. This was, of course, Made in the United Kingdom--which, for cashmere, means Scotland. It does have a few minor issues; the tag is loose, and there is some minor snagging at the hem, in need of a small repair under the arm, and a minor brown mark on the cuff, as shown. This is thus in Good/Very Good condition--but given its provenance, quality, and complete wearability under a tweed jacket for that classic Ivy look it's a steal at just $24! Chest: 21; Sleeve: 33 1/2; Length: 24 1/4.








5) Classic handknit sweater. Excellent condition. Almost certainly Made in the USA. Chest: 21; Sleeve: 35 1/2; Length: 24. Asking just $25.




6) Patagonia. Size S. Good condition only; minor pilling throughout. $12, or FREE with another sweater! Chest: 18; Sleeve: 32 1/2; Length: 24 1/2.





7) Alan Paine pure lambswool St Andrews sweater. From one of the great English sweater companies! made in England. Size 42. Chest: 19 3/4; Sleeve: 32 1/2; Length: 23 1/2. Asking just $22.
