Fight the winter doldrums with a wool sweater that celebrates plunging to the dark, watery depths of the ocean. With it's beautiful blue color and and detailed skin divers our skin diver sweater lets you celebrate the sun in the midst of winter.

This (New!) Mary Maxim sweater called Skin hotsell Diver was knit using a vintage Mary Maxim knitting pattern from the 1960's. This is an extremely rare pattern that I was lucky to find. In fact. I have never seen even a vintage sweater knit in the Skin Diver pattern.

Please note that this is a NEW sweater, NOT a vintage sweater. That makes it the ideal gift for yourself or someone else.

The Mary Maxim company made their mark on the world of knitting and fashion when they began producing a line of knitting patterns for home knitters based (loosely) on Cowichan sweaters from Vancouver Island Canada. There are actually a lot of differences between Cowichan sweaters and Mary Maxim designs but they are often confused. The overall shape of the sweaters - cardigan styles, often with raglan sleeves and shawl collars is very similar to the Cowichan designs - and some of the Mary Maxim sweaters do feature motifs that are based on the same motifs found in Cowichan sweaters. However, more often than not if you compare Mary Maxim sweaters to Cowichan sweaters you will find that they are really nothing alike. The Mary Maxim company did design beautiful sweaters though! What is fun about these timeless designs is their ULTRA kitschy-ness!
