How will that consort with the cardy of Fair Isle goodiness?

You might be onto something there.
Ulysses' patch on the back of a zip-up cardy would do a lot towards their "non-gang" public perceptions.

Or should the patch be crochet knitted on?

And then there is the Auckland Uni SMC tribe...those that commute and go for rides, but are known for having no sense of time nor direction, and never go on a ride without some sort of complication (someone runs out of fuel or a bit of their bike falls off). They often end up in completely different locations after said rides.
