Oooooh, LOOK at what I found!



I bought this sweater at Goodwill tonight for $3. Check out the back:



According to the tag,



it is “100% New Wool Handknitted In The Donegal Highlands Made In The Republic of Ireland.” Based on the typeface and style of said tag, I’m guessing this is 60s vintage, but I could easily be wrong. Tag also says dry-cleaning is recommended, but I wonder if a Eucalan bath might soften it up a bit. It is definitely 60s scratchy, but that won’t really matter with long sleeves on.

I love it!
