Available in sizes XS (UK size 8) to XXL (UK size 18/20). This is my neatest fit fair isle yoke jumper. Other styles I make have a looser fit. It is really important therefore to get the size right with this style so it is not too tight - please contact me if you would like measurements.

Inspiration: The Lido pattern was inspired by the Art Deco architecture of the 1920's and 30's. At that time many towns, and particularly those by the sea had an outdoor swimming pool called a lido, quite often built in the fashionable Art Deco style of the time. In the days before foreign travel a trip to a lido was a way to experience a little piece of continental life in Britain. In their heyday there were nearly 200 lidos in the UK but sadly most of these were demolished by the end of the 1980's due to having fallen into disrepair.
