The story behind this sweater: It was knitted for The Beatles by three Swedish fans (Pia Karlander, Ulla Blomquist and Elizabeth Berg, of Stockholm). The Beatles Book’s March 1965 explains…
“[T]hat giant sweater which was sent to The Beatles at the Hammersmith Odeon when they were appearing in their Christmas Show. The boys liked it so much that they wore it almost every night from then on for one of their quick appearances on stage.” (x)
