I may have mentioned this before but as a lad I absolutely loved watching The Good Life. I have been on the hunt for a good low key Tom Good jumper for a while to match my RE aspirational lifestyle. Chucked a 99p bid at one last week and guess what? Won it! Arrived today, absolutely mint and I've just handwashed it.
GOT Northern voice 'Winter is coming'. Ready!

hope this is not too late, but ideally you should dry it flat so as not to pull it out of shape.
Cheers John! Will do.

Thought if you were going for the authentic Tom Goode look, it needed to be out of shape
To be fair, I've bought four jumpers since last Winter all 2nd hand. This one is my fave. I've sure it will be well stretched in my ownership. There's a grey cable knit on its way, looking f to that. Margo though....
