The Guernsey Frock...
« on: January 13, 2016, 08:28:11 PM »
A while ago I had a link to mfg's of a guernsey frock sweater, period correct to the early 19th century.  I believe it was Sir Michael who advised on sizing from the source.  Now I've lost track of the source...!!!   :oops:

If anyone has an inkling of the supplier, from across the pond, please let me know...Thanks...

Times change and this appears to be the current incarnation of the place I got mine from.  They are good sweaters and kinda cool.  No front and no back just 6 flat panels of knitted wool.  And period correct for a wide range of times.

Is this the Guernsey frock that was in use during the 1800's?
