Words

I can't believe this sweater hasn't sold out everywhere. I suppose it's not the cheapest on the market, but it's surely one of the best this fall. It's made with a beautiful navy merino wool and the neck is cut just right - an absolute nautical classic.
"Fairly fitted and extremely soft, Nigel Cabourn's Submarine knit is a new style for this season featuring a small chest pocket and hidden pouch pocket across the front. The tubular neck is cut in classic Guernsey style and the cuffs and hem are ribbed to keep the cold at bay."

I have this and it's a beauty -no harshness to the wool, incredibly soft. The colour on mine is very dark, almost black. I found you can size up reasonably easy as the long cuffs can be folded over to different lengths with ease, allowing a perfect arm length.

I can't wear high/roll/turtle necks, I get claustrophobic. I struggle with scarfs too. I sometimes wonder how I manage.

Ok, you twisted my arm

For me it's the price that makes me not buying this..nice piece, and the submarine reference adds some mystique for me. I like roll/turtle/high necks, like on the SNS stark sweater, I love not having to wear a scarf with it if I don't want to.

I've so enjoyed Nigel Cabourn knitwear over the past year. I pick up a piece here and there when I see one that really strikes. me. Everything is so well made, and a nice slim fit to boot. I'm still sad I missed out on this one last year: http://img826.imageshack.us/img826/1037/cabournsweater.jpg
