Description
Embroidered rather than printed, which changes how long this looks good.
A print is ink lying on the surface of the fabric and it fails in an entirely predictable way: it dulls, then it cracks, then it flakes. Embroidery is thread stitched into the garment, so there is nothing to peel off. Combined with a knitted base, this is a jumper with no obvious point of failure other than ordinary wear.
Twenty pounds for knit plus embroidery is good value, and the reason it is achievable is that the design will be simple — embroidery is priced by stitch count. Expect a clean Santa motif rather than a busy scene.
Choose this if
- You want something that survives the cupboard and comes out again each year
- You prefer festive and tidy to festive and loud
- The venue is cold — knit in a packed room is warm work
Wash cool inside out and dry flat; embroidery can pucker if the garment is stretched wet. For a bolder knit at a similar price, the BerryGo reindeer pullover is the alternative.
