Description
A Brief History of Sweaters
The term sweater is American in derivation, originating in the 1890s when American sportsmen wore them to induce sweating, which presumably was thought to be healthy. Early sweaters were simply knitted shirts or those made from heavy woolen jersey (named as such because they were worn by sailors on the Isle of Jersey, one of the British Channel Islands). They were usually styled with either a stand-up edge around the neck, worn by cyclists, or, a bit later, a polo collar, worn by golfers. In the 1920s, they began calling them jumpers, and then, in the 1930s, the term pullover came into popular usage. At around this time, the garment that had usually been worn solely by men started to become an everyday item of clothing for women, who began wearing them instead of blouses. Concurrent with this trend, both knitting and crocheting became popular to become an everyday item of clothing for women, who began wearing them instead of blouses.
The elite classes in Victorian England were amongst the first Europeans to take notice of the luxurious feel of cashmere. Historically, since that time, the demand for cashmere has been high through feast, famine, war, and peace, perhaps because of its irresistible combination of low bulk and high loft. Even today, cashmere remains the warmest, softest, and most comfortable fabric money can buy.
Sweater Care and Cleaning
The better you care for your sweater, the longer it will last. We recommend that you avoid excessively cleaning your sweater, since that might lead to misshapenness and the breaking down of some materials. If given proper care, your wool sweater can last many years, and your cashmere sweater can last decades.
