A spectator classic, two versions of the same sporty sweater. The ladies’ version is long and lean with a garter stitch collar on a ribbed stand neck, while the man’s version is broad, shorter in proportion and with a rolled rib crew neck. The design has classic Guernsey origins with chains of diamond shapes divided by ladders.
