The rib at the top of the sleeve is said to represent a sailing ship’s rope ladder in the rigging, the raised seam across the shoulder a rope and the garter stitch panel, waves breaking upon the beach. The traditional Guernsey sweater was originally a local fisherman’s working garment, hence the diamond under the arm for ease of movement and extra strength. It is knitted with close stitches from tightly twisted wool and this gives it its ability to withstand sea spray and rain. Traditional Guernsey sweaters were knitted by the womenfolk of the fishing and farming families of the islands, when many earned their living from the sea or the land. The distinctive pattern was handed down from generation to generation and the knitting skills passed on from mother to daughter. To this day traditional Guernsey knitwear and Alderney sweaters are produced using age old techniques that have been tried and tested for more than a century. ROYAL APPROVAL The traditional Guernsey sweater has always been made from the best English worsted wool since the 16th century, when licenses were granted by the crown to import wool from England. Elizabeth I and Mary Queen of Scots both owned Guernsey knitwear. Mary Queen of Scots even wore Guernsey stockings at her execution. Channel Jumper still only knit with the best English worsted wool and have presented their traditional Guernsey knitwear to several of today’s British Royal Family as gifts when they have visited the small island of Alderney. LORD NELSON AND THE GUERNSEY The Guernsey had become well known by the 19th century. Nelson recommended it to the Admiralty as a valuable article of Naval clothing and, in 1857, the soldiers of the garrison in Halifax, Nova Scotia were issued with Guernseys as part of their winter equipment. www.channeljumper.com All prices shown exclude VAT 7 FINEST BRITISH WORSTED WOOL Our wool starts it’s life upon the fells and downs of the British countryside. The garments we manufacture use worsted* wool which is hand graded for the finest quality and thickness of fibre. The wool is then scoured, a cleaning operation that removes oils, dirt and dead fibres. To remove any short fibres the wool is then combed. Removing these short fibres ensures the wool will be less likely to pill or ball-up on the finished garment. Combing also ensures the fibres are parallel and ready for spinning. The wool is then dyed in a very gentle process so as not to damage the fibres. The next step is to draw the wool. This prepares the wool for the worsted spinning frame by determining a defined weight and levelness, allowing for a very even final yarn. The yarn is then spun and twisted on semi-automatic spinning frames with a vacuum extraction system to remove contamination. The twisting process ensures the yarns are at their optimum strength and softness for knitting. Our traditional Guernsey sweaters are knitted with close stitches from tightly twisted wool and this gives it the ability to withstand sea spray and rain. Our traditional Guernsey sweaters are knitted with close stitches from tightly twisted wool, and this gives it the ability to withstand sea spray and rain. The result is a strong and long lasting garment that will hold its shape better in both wear and washing. * Worsted wool gets it’s name from the village of Worsted in Norfolk, one of the manufacturing centres for yarn in the 12th century. www.channeljumper.com 9 BURHOU BRAYE £59.50 Traditional Guernsey £59.50 V-neck Guernsey Oatmeal Dark Navy Both available in all colours Dark navy BRAYE Loden Green Oatmeal Steel Demin Size 34 36 38 40 42 44 46 48 50 52 54 Chest (flat) 17” 18” 19” 20” 21” 22” 23” 24” 25” 26” 27” Body length 26” 27” 27” 27” 28” 28” 29” 29” 29” 30” 30” Sleeve length 19” 19” 19” 19” 21” 21” 21” 21” 21” 21” 21” V-neck Guernsey Dark Navy • £59.50 (see opposite) www.channeljumper.com All prices shown exclude VAT 11 CORBLETS CLONQUE £65.50 1/4 zip Guernsey £69.50 Full zip Guernsey Dark Navy Dark Navy Both available in all colours Dark navy ROSELLE Loden Green Oatmeal Steel Demin Short cardigan Aran • £39.50 (see page 17) Size 34 36 38 40 42 44 46 48 50 52 54 Chest (flat) 17” 18” 19” 20” 21” 22” 23” 24” 25” 26” 27” Body length 26” 27” 27” 27” 28” 28” 29” 29” 29” 30” 30” CORBLETS Sleeve length 19” 19” 19” 19” 21” 21” 21” 21” 21” 21” 21” Quarter zip Guernsey Dark Navy • £59.50 (see opposite) www.channeljumper.com All prices shown exclude VAT 13 ROSELLE Short cardigan Charcoal • £39.50 (see page 17) COLOTTE ELLIS £45.50 Classic cable knit cardigan £41.50 Roll-neck cardigan Burnt Orange Aran Ellis available in these colours Colotte available in these colours Saddleworth Burnt Orange Charcoal Aran Steel Size XS S M L XL Size across the chest (cm) 44 48 53 57 61 17.5 19 21 22.5 24 Size across the chest (inches) www.channeljumper.com All prices shown exclude VAT 15 Casquets Shawl Collar Pullover Ravenstone • £49.50 (see opposite) CASQUETS Roselle £49.50 Shawl Collar Pullover £39.50 Short cardigan Ravenstone Oatmeal Roselle available in these colours Casquets available in these colours Saddleworth Ravenstone Charcoal Oatmeal Dark Apple Casquets sizes Size Burnt Orange Roselle sizes S M L XL XXL XS S M L XL Across the chest (cm) 48 53 57 61 64 44 48 53 57 61 Across the chest (in) 19 21 22.5 24 25 17.5 19 21 22.5 24 www.channeljumper.com All prices shown exclude VAT 17 All about WALDIES SHOES BY CHANNEL JUMPER Why Waldies shoes? 100% BPA free Ergonomic design Imagine a shoe so lightweight and comfortable that you hardly notice you are wearing it.
