@dieworkwear.bsky.socialReposted by @eekelly.bsky.socialLove these photos of a gansey sweater over at Highland Threads. Such great knitting. A gansey is a type of fisherman sweater with identical front and back sides. Last photo shows one from Flamborough Marine, my favorite contemporary maker for this style.
