Ruth Langsford Patchwork Pattern Jumper

 

[misiuszka]

Oh dear sounds ominous!

 

[Toril]

Oh dear sounds ominous!

It’ll probably also be more expensive than the same kind of jumper that’s available elsewhere.

 

[Battiola73]

Cashmere? Cotton? 100% wool? Wool blend? Viscose? Polyester?

 

[Clothescloth]

Probably concocted from all the different left over yarn from her other jumpers. I had lots of ‘patchwork’ jumpers in the 50’s knitted by mom to use up all the left over wool.

I used to knit them into stripes, but the same idea. Cost-cutting.

Sounds ghastly more like.

I still do that.

They must be raking in the sales to keep up this relentless ‘is there ever a day without Ruth on QVC’? I would use ‘overkill’ myself it is taking a long time for people to realise they can better for less elsewhere.

Nah. Acrylic. Or pure silk.

Exactly, I really don't understand the appeal, walk into any M&S and those jumpers she flogs at £50 quid a pop, you will see similar and nicer on the rails for £20 to £30 quid, I suppose some people never learn!!

Polyester, with a bit of viscose thrown in. "Its a natural fibre" don't you know!!

Can’t remember which brand it was, but I think it was Marla Wynne, had a cashmere blend jumper being shown on air. No mention of the percentage. I looked on line and it was only 5% cashmere. Was in the £90 price bracket.

M and S prices for pure cashmere!! £89 in loads of colours. Rip off Marla, rip off.

Q are selling a White Stuff 100% cashmere jumper for just shy of £125. It’s £130 on WS own site, so by the time you’ve added the postage you’ve saved about £2.

Every time I drop onto the QVC channel she’s on it doing a double act with her bestie Cabler. It’s beyond cringeworthy. I wouldn’t care if her clothes were stylish but mostly they’re just shapeless and frumpy. And the jumpers - don’t get me started. They must be selling in their thousands for them to keep putting her on but it’s a source of total amazement to me that people are continually willing to part with that much cash for any of them. I think QVC must be struggling to fill their air time. This is a plea from the heart - If any of the big wigs at Q happen to read this can you please give her a break (a long one)!

It used to be the same with Marla Wynn she was constantly on. Don't see so much of her now.

QVC won't get rid of Ruth, she's very popular and sells loads. Making both Q and Ruth herself lots of dosh I should imagine. I bought a dress once but sent it back as it didn't fit, the colour wasn't the same in real life and it wasn't very good quality for the price.

I saw a show the other day. Marlas’ offerings seem to be morphing into the usual Q garments. Not a fan of her stuff but at least they were different. I thought I was watching Kim when I saw an edge to edge polyester cardi.
