Vtg Genuine Cowichan Indian Knit Deer Sweater M

Authentic Vintage Cowichan Sweater Jacket in the classic lodge style. This is a true piece of Canadian heritage craft, featuring the desirable running Deer/Reindeer motif and geometric accents. Certified by the original "Genuine Cowachan Indian Knit" tag. This was purchased and kept by one single owner. The sweater is in excellent vintage condition with a beautiful, natural texture. It displays minor pilling/fuzziness consistent with the age and the hand-spun nature of this thick, 100% wool yarn. This is not a flaw, but a characteristic of genuine Cowichan knits. The zipper pull has a slight tarnish.
