Description: THE HISTORY OF FISHERMAN GARMENTS... Traditionally, what we know as the "fisherman" look has been hand knitted sweaters of intricate design produced by villagers on islands off the coasts of England, Scotland and Ireland. These knitted patterns are never written down, but handed down from generation to generation. Each fishing port has its own distinctive designs, and many families have their own family stitches, unique to them. Each stitch is a symbol for something in the fisherfolk's day to day life: cables, for example, symbolize fishing ropes; diamond patterns, the mesh of the fishing nets; ribbing or ridges simulate the hills and furrows of a plowed field.
