Breton striped round neck sweater buttoned onleft shoulder with plain yoke 100% wool !
The sailor sweater called “chandail” in French would find its origin in Brittany. It is a contraction of “marchands d’ails” which is how navigators travelling to England to sell garlic and onions were called in the 18th century.Two hundred years later, in the 1970’s, a navy blue woollen uniform sweater appeared on sub-marine officers and quickly spread out to surface officers and later on became the work uniform of seamen.
