Marks and Spencer's new Fair Isle Crew Neck Relaxed Jumper, priced at £34, has been praised by shoppers as 'perfect' for cold weather and 'so comfy and warm'. The new arrival is available in sizes extra small, small, medium, large and extra large, with customers saying it fits true to size.
A timeless classic for autumn and winter
The product description on the M&S website reads: "A Fair Isle pattern brings classic character to this crew neck jumper from M&S. Made with wool for extra warmth, the relaxed fit skims the body comfortably and layers easily over shirts. Added stretch helps the jumper keep its shape wear after wear. Long sleeves complete the cosy, cold weather design."
Shoppers have shared positive feedback on the jumper, with one saying: "Great quality and lovely design, can't wait to wear with jeans this winter." Another added: "Beautiful soft feel jumper comfortable for all day wear smart casual." A third commented: "Love the colour palette for a different Christmas jumper. Sleeves are a bit large but kept it as I liked the jumper."
Mixed reviews on comfort
A fourth customer wrote: "It's just so comfy and warm, perfect for the cooler weather, love it." Another shared: "Lovely and soft and a great fit. Looks smart for an evening out with the nice puffed sleeves but also good too for a casual look with jeans."
Despite the positive reviews, some shoppers have found the jumper a bit scratchy. One said: "I've been looking for a Fair Isle jumper like this for a long time. I love the design, and it's cosy and warm. It's a bit scratchy at the neckline but hasn't stopped me from wearing it. My only real gripe is that it's pilling already and I haven't even washed it yet. It's why it got 4 stars from me." Another added: "Nice cosy jumper. Slightly itchy wool but not as bad as some. Fine if you put a T-shirt under."
