J.Crew is bringing back a festive, fan favorite fit for the holidays.
The retailer has restocked its Fair Isle Rollneck Sweater online, now available in a seasonal snowflake print. Originally designed in 1988, J.Crew’s rollneck sweater made a splashy comeback last year with a star-studded campaign that featured TV, film and music stars like Benito Skinner, Dominic Sessa and Maggie Rogers. Social media star Emma Chamberlain followed that up with a campaign for J.Crew’s “Tiny Rollneck” earlier this summer.
Now, shoppers can pick up the piece in a cozy fair isle pattern that’s perfect for holiday dinners and winter get togethers alike.

J.Crew Fair Isle 2025 Rollneck Sweater
The J.Crew Fair Isle Rollneck Sweater is made from 100% lambswool with a gently rolled neckline (hence the name) and rolled hem. The snowflake pattern, meantime, is at once fresh and nostalgic, a worthy addition to any wardrobe for chilly weather and beyond.
Sizing is generous, with the relaxed fit piece available in sizes XXS to 3X. Reviewers say the sweater runs a little big, but you can go up a size if you want that true slouchy, oversized look.
J.Crew has the rollneck snowflake sweater available in “vintage ruby alabaster” red, a blustery baby blue, and in “asphalt” black.
The J.Crew Fair Isle 2025 Rollneck Sweater is available now for $168 on JCrew.com. Ideal for holiday dressing and Christmas gifting alike, it’s sure to be a go-to piece for the season — and for seasons to come.
J.Crew, meantime, calls it a “timeless staple for nearly 40 years” and one of the company’s “most enduring signatures; a piece that stands for both ease and elegance.”
The retailer also has the same pattern available in matching beanies, mitts and scarves here.
