Ganseys – Sweaters and jackets for every weather and every situation

What once protected the inhabitants of the British Isles from wind and weather is now popular with knitwear enthusiasts and outdoor sports enthusiasts: the gansey. These jackets and sweaters originated in the 19th century as workwear for fishermen and sailors.

A gansey is a sweater for life. Thanks to a special knitting technique and the fact that it's knitted in one piece, it's robust and virtually weatherproof. The dropped shoulders and the shape of the sleeves offer exceptional freedom of movement. The traditional knitting patterns and timelessly classic design make this fisherman's sweater a fashionable piece that's easy to mix and match.

This book shows you how to knit gansey jackets and sweaters yourself step by step:

  • Top-down knitting with traditional patterns and design variations: Nine models for women and men and for conversion to children's sizes
  • Knitting instructions in text and chart for advanced knitters and Gansey beginners
  • Practice knitting on a mini sweater: First, learn the techniques you will use to knit the necklines, shoulders, sleeves, torso and hem of your sweater
  • A little yarn knowledge: These yarns are particularly suitable for the classic British fisherman's sweater
  • The Gansey Story and the development from sailor sweaters to outdoor clothing

Never out of fashion: Gansey knitting art

Twenty-five years after the first edition of her definitive work, author Beth Brown-Reinsel now shares her new insights and knitting ideas with her loyal readers. Since the first edition, she has traveled extensively and gathered new inspiration for the all-round knitter.

The Gansey tradition has taught her one thing above all else: knitting brings people together. She wants to share this experience with readers in her very personal knitting book. Whether you're knitting a sweater as a gift or perhaps earning a living from knitting, every Gansey is like a warm hug!
