Re: Jumpers

My Mum had a few fluffy jumpers in the 1980s, some of which almost matched her hair when she had a perm.

Re: fluffy jumpers

I had a big red Mohair cardigan and it made me scratch like hell.

A mauve mohair jumper it was nice top but really itchy

Wearing Jumpers .....

I know if you wore a Jumper for School in the 80s, you were deemed a wussey or something similar!

Though of course we wore them for the 1st day at Secondary School, but after that it'd be a T-Shirt under your Shirt and no Coat even too (if we deliberatly "forgot" our Blazer)

That's true, Marcella! They did add a couple of inches in the right places

Re: Skinny Rib Jumpers

Yes, mine was similar colour, and I had another in a light shade of pink!.
I liked wearing them as they made me look' bigger!..

Skinny Rib Jumpers

Does anyone remember Skinny Rib Jumpers? They were often in white with a brightly coloured band (or two) around the body and also on the sleeves (around elbow area or just above) I think they were all the go around the mid 70's.

Re: fluffy jumpers

Didn't do the fluffy jumper thing, but defo the white stripe across the nose. The number of detentions we got for doing it with tippex.

tipex used to crack and fall off after 10 mins

Re: fluffy jumpers

Actually got my Gran to teach me how to knit so I could make my own. Green mohair - lovely. Know how a cat feels when it coughs up fur balls. Sadly all the photos mysteriously disappeared.
