We all know that authentic Fair Isle knits, whether they’re sweaters, socks, scarfs, or stoles, are very very expensive. When we say authentic, we mean Fair Isle knits created by experienced knitters from the tiny island of Fair Isle, which is located north of Scotland.

So you see, those sweaters created even by premium labels are merely Fair Isle “inspired” unless these brands actually contracted knitters from the island of Fair Isle to create those sweaters or knits. Of course, if you’re not a hard core Fair Isle fanatic, there’s no harm in buying something Fair Isle “inspired”, whether it’s from Dolce & Gabbana or an accessible brand like Gap. After all, the objective is simply to get the “look”.

So for the young crowd on a budget looking for that “look” minus the pricey tag, here’s a find you might be interested in – check out this GoJane Zip Up Hooded “Fair Isle” Jacket. It’s a knitted piece alright (100% acrylic), and even features reindeer patterns all over. But what makes it attractive (and unique) are two things – the infusion of bright colors such as orange and red, AND, the affordable price tag of USD25! Definitely worth grabbing, wouldn’t you say?

You can find this cute jacket at GoJane. Enjoy that “Fair Isle” look for much less!
