Ganseys (or guernseys) were originally knit for hardworking fishermen to wear at sea; they were traditionally made with tightly spun wool, and the resulting garments were dense and almost waterproof. Today we can take these historical garments as inspiration for wearable, fun-to-knit, beautifully textured pullovers. Featuring cables and/or textural stitch patterns using just knit and purl stitches, this assortment of sweater patterns showcases a variety of construction techniques and styles—something for every modern knitter.
