Morecambe Bay Fishermans Gansey mark 2

I've now simplified the design as I felt it was a bit fussy,so now the yoke just has the textured ripple stitch  across it which I prefer.

new sweater design

I think this looks quite good -------- the photo not the sweater! The garment worked really well in Aran weight Lancashire Farm Wool & I intend to knit some more for Autumn.I find it comfortable to wear & its a bit of a different look than my usual Arans & Ganseys but still along the same traditional lines.
