This past summer Sports Illustrated conducted an Old World sweater survey. Some of the world?╟╓s best sweaters and prettiest girls are shown on this and the following pages. While a collector might journey from the Highlands to the steppes, it isn?╟╓t necessary: all these sweaters are obtainable at fine American stores which make a specialty of im- ports. Each country has its -own specialty: Scotland its cashmeres and this year the creamiest of them all?╟÷vicuna; France exquisite- ly shaped and finished merino knits; Italy ingenious sports sweat- ers; Austria doll-pretty peasant sweaters; Germany intricate in- tarsia knits; and Russia sweaters that you have to knit yourself. FROM GERMANY Helga Allgauer (at upper left) wears pullover with in- tarsia pattern of circles on Dresden blue {$25, Jack Frost Shop, Jackson, N.H.). FROM SCOTLAND (left), softer than even cashmere?╟÷a vicuna sweater, worn by Helen Bunney in field of heath- er {Ballantyne, $90, at Marshall Field).
