This authentic vintage 1970s heavy-gauge wool jumper features a striking Nordic-style two-tone pattern in rich chocolate brown and warm oatmeal tones, knitted in a thick, dense yarn that gives it a substantial 1.5 kg weight and true cold-weather warmth. Designed with classic raglan sleeves, wide ribbed collar, cuffs and hem, and a beautifully textured vertical stitch pattern, this piece reflects the golden era of 1960s–70s alpine, surf-coast and Scandinavian-inspired knitwear. Likely hand-knit or produced in a small cottage workshop, it has that unmistakable heritage quality that modern knitwear simply cannot replicate. A fantastic unisex piece that looks equally good worn relaxed or oversized, perfect for winter layering, ski-lodge style, or collectors of genuine vintage wool garments.
