American Apparel postal shorts aren't hugely expensive: http://store.americanapparel.co.uk/rsact401.html?cid=175

Lovely stuff. So White Of Hawick accommodates much more than the website suggests.

Sounds good. Is it soft?

Thanks for the info. I thought about a shetland sweater first. Most people seem to find those scratchy, though, and a guernsey can look even better. I've googled a bit about whether guernseys are itchy and opinion seems mixed. My skin can be sensitive but not extremely so. I think I'll just man...

Hey, thanks for this (and your response to my shawl post, which I've just noticed). Last question: can you get away with a short-sleeve shirt underneath?

If anybody can tell me how itchy or soft and comfortable they find their Guernsey, particularly if it's from Guernsey Woollens or the Guernsey Knitwear Company, please do.

Aaaaaarrrgh! Real life invades one of my places of distraction! The economic situation has put a crimp in my style, and I should be busy working to rectify it. Thanks for the reminder. Right, that's it, five more minutes and I'm on it...

I bought shawl cardigans by Albam and Heritage Research and they came to just over half that combined, which is still expensive enough my girlfriend will make a cardigan out of my skin if she finds out.

Hi, some great info here. Helps so much to see decent images of the Black Sheep cardigan. I'm scouring the internet for McQueen cardigan suggestions. Plain shawl, no logo. The other big point for me is a collar button. I'll offer two of my best findings of shawl cardigans with collar buttons...
