Mens white cableknit jumpers

    Just throwing this out there to see if anyone has any idea where I can pick up a white/cream/off-white-ish cable knit jumper? I'm trying to replace one that I already have that is a bit small for me now. They seem to be a really rare colour in mens jumpers which is a pity because with a light blue shirt underneath it's a look that I really love. I have the kind of pale skin that would make Casper look tan and reddish-brown hair so the only jumper colours that really suit me are green, cream and navy at a push.

    Basic criteria:

    - must be a crew neck, preferably with a cable knit but plain is fine also.
    - in a fine gauge wool like merino. Not a fan of the big chunky wool/Aran style jumpers. If I have no other option I might go for cotton but merino/cashmere would be my preference.
    - Not from one of the mainstream/high street stores. Nothing against them but their idea of an extra large seems to be about a 44" chest which is miles too small for my fairly generous frame.

    Any ideas?

    Ireland's Eye is a lovely brand for what you're looking for. Their merino wool is very nice quality and they do some great blends with small amounts of cashmere too. http://www.irelandseyeonline.com/collection/autumn-winter-2015/catalogue

    There's a store on Nassau Street (name escapes me) that does all that kind of stuff. Tourist central, but you'll probably pick up a nice jumper.

    You might get one in the likes of Hilfiger but not sure if they'll do the cream / white you were looking for.
