Holiday Jacquard Knit Sweater

Fair Isle, but make it Jumpman. One apparel concept translated into a production-ready tech pack with flats, colorways, construction, graded measurements, BOM, QC, and approval checkpoints.

01 · Style Summary

The brief, in one garment

A relaxed crew neck pullover carrying an all-over holiday jacquard: Jumpman silhouettes, Christmas trees, and Nordic snowflakes arranged Fair Isle-style across horizontal bands. Deep black ground, white pattern, Gym Red 2x2 rib at neck, cuffs, and hem. Premium seasonal lifestyle, not a novelty sweater that apologizes for itself.

Every motif is true jacquard, knit in, not printed on. The floats are caught, the bands match at the seams, and the red stripe is knit in. That is the whole point.
