This is a fine example of a traditional 'Helmsdale' patterned fisherman's gansey or jumper, dating back to the mid-20th century. The design features motifs that include the diamond shape of herring nets and the cable patterns reminiscent of rope and rigging. This particular jumper was typically worn on special occasions or Sundays, rather than while at sea. Fisherwomen, who were skilled knitters, created ganseys during their spare time as they awaited the herring catch to arrive at the quayside.
