Bespoke Sweaters(?)
Gentlemen,
Does anyone know where one may acquire bespoke sweaters in Italy and/or France?
My thanks, in advance.
Take care, gents.
God bless.

Ask someone's great grandmother, they'll knit you one. Brittany is likely a good geographical area to start.

Re: Bespoke Sweaters(?)
It's a lost art, women used to knit on trains and buses but you don't see it now. My mother was always knitting whilst she watched TV, she was pretty slow at it though and I had normally grown out of whatever she was making before it was finished - my younger brother had a great collection of jumpers.

Re: Bespoke Sweaters(?)
I'm having one done at the moment by the mother-in-law. Last one was a good un.
In the UK theres Foxhunt. Work looks pretty good, made in Leicester by hand but orders are taken in London. I had a meeting with the lady in charge but she forgot to bring a tape. I kinda lost interest after that.
