Classic Men's Cardigan Specially selected Shetland fleece was used to knit the unique "Everest" garments worn by the mountaineer Sir Edmund Hillary in 1953, when he was the first climber to reach the summit of Mount Everest. The garments were developed and knitted by T.M. Adie and Sons of Voe, Shetland. In Shetland the fleece was traditionally removed, or 'rooed' by plucking with the fingers, close to the skin of the sheep. This was done once a year when sheep naturally shed their outer fleece and thus 'rooing' was assisted by the natural process.
This classic look is right at home next to the fireplace, the golf course, or
at Family Holiday Gatherings. Made of 100% wool in Ireland by one of Irelands
oldest knitting mills.
The color is Dark Charcoal , a classic man's sweater. Made of thick
Shetland Wool. Zipper front. Style #S361
