Origins of Argyle patterns on textiles
Argyle pattern cardigans have always been popular. Perhaps you have a pair of socks, a hat, or a topcoat in your closet that is decorated with this pattern. This recognizable pattern originated in Western Scotland, county of Argyll, and is a pattern peculiar to tartan outfits. Just like cardigan sweaters have their origins in military uniforms and battlefields, clothing items with argyle patterns date back to the 17th-century Scottish military. This recognizable pattern has conquered the world of fashion and in some regions of the globe, it is also called “Baklava Pattern” due to its diamond-shaped geometry. Argyle cardigans have always been around and their recent comeback in cropped cashmere versions is just proof that this pattern will never go out of style and it goes well with just about any outfit combination. They come in men’s, women’s, sleeveless, and cropped variants. We have listed some of the best sellers in the tables below. Click on thumbnails to view larger size images and sizing info.
