Wear the tradition locally crafted and hand finished in the heart of the channel Islands.
The word “Jersey” is a widely used term in the current day and has different meanings dependent on the context in which it is used. Within the context of Channel Island fishing communities however, a “Jersey” had a distinct meaning.
Based on the original pattern for a Guernsey, a Jersey is identified by the pattern of an anchor knitted in relief almost like a “crest”. For Channel Jumper, the production of a Jersey has come about through demand. Even though we are two separate “Bailiwicks” Jersey is often considered the closer 'sister' island to Alderney in terms of the welcome received when a resident from Alderney visits Jersey or vice-versa.
Our Alderney jumper is very special to us because the inception of the company was as a result of the desire to resume production of this very unique jumper. Our current design has developed from the original basic pattern following research into other knitting patterns that were in use at the time that the Alderney came into production.
