Made in Newfoundland Vintage Bogside Weaving 100% Wool Sweater – Size XL - Cream

This vintage 100% wool sweater was handcrafted in St. John’s, Newfoundland by the legendary artisans of Bogside Weaving. The cowl neck and the loose fit make it super comfy, and the balloon sleeves add a touch of east coast elegance. Made to last, this will be a treasured addition to your fall/winter wardrobe for years to come. The stated size extra-large is an approximation, as there is no size tag; it measures 21” (53cm) pit-to-pit, and 24.5” (62cm) long; the sleeves are 17” (43cm) from shoulder to cuff. Bogside Weaving was a Newfoundland artisan shop specializing in handcrafted textiles like scarves and blankets, based in St. John's. The business's founder, Barbara Roberts, later moved and opened Bogside Gallery in Halifax, Nova Scotia, in 1996 after running the weaving shop for over 15 years. Ms. Roberts closed the Halifax location when she retired in 2016.
