Now that December is very nearly upon us, it’s basically a pre-requisite that at some point this month one must wear a Christmas jumper. There’s no question about it, since Mark Darcy appeared in his fetching snowman-emblazoned number in Bridget Jones’ Diary, the Christmas jumper has officially become cool again.
Stalk the high street and you’ll undoubtedly find them everywhere, but for a true classic you can’t beat the amazing British Christmas Jumpers. A recent discovery upon a visit to the Country Living Christmas Fair, this brand has been creating Christmas jumpers 100% designed and handmade in Britain for over 25 years, in a factory that’s created knitwear since the early 1900s.
A combination of good old British design and quality craftsmanship, the result is the ultimate Christmas jumper. From bright pink leopard print emblazoned with penguins to giant Santa faces, my favourite is most definitely the après-ski scene in this gorgeous deep purple. £45 from www.britishchristmasjumpers.com
