Diamond Fairisle Sweater
The perfect combination of colourwork and texture, the Diamond Fair Isle jumper has alternating rows of Fair Isle and then diamond motif textured stitches. Cropped and sweet, this is a fabulously fashionable sweater - and we love the colour choices, but you can pick your faves!
