Vintage Polo Ralph Lauren Silk Cable Knit Crewneck - Dusty Rose

Dusty rose silk cable, size L, with a warm heather running through the yarn. The neck label reads Polo by Ralph Lauren with MADE IN HONG KONG at the right edge, and a separate 100% SILK tag. Labelled a men's L, which wears as an intentional oversize.

Hong Kong is the older tier for Ralph Lauren knitwear, 1980s into the mid 1990s. Blue on rose is not a common player colour pairing.

Silk is a filament fibre with no loft, so a cable worked in it has weight and sheen where a wool cable has air. It drapes rather than stands, which is the whole reason to knit a fisherman's stitch in a fibre fishermen never wore.

Measured flat, in inches: pit to pit 24, shoulder 19, length 25.5, sleeve 26.

Condition: great, with one small dark speck on the collar ribbing.
