Vintage Norwegian Fair Isle Hand-Knit Wool Cardigan
Vintage Norwegian Fair Isle Hand-Knit Wool Cardigan
This vintage Norwegian cardigan was knit by hand in Norway, in a traditional fair isle motif. This is the original version of a design that countless designers reference to this day, including Bode, who has recreated this exact vintage sweater with a retail price of $980! (See below.) The wool is so soft, and so warm and comfortable— natural fibers like wool are always the best at keeping you warm without ever feeling too hot. It has a unique funnel neck and closes with beautifully ornate silver buttons. Made by hand of 100% wool.
The Vintage 1950s Circle Skirt pictured is also available.
Measurements: This will best fit a size X-Small, Small, and Medium if worn open, but please refer to below measurements. Note that the knit naturally stretches so there is some flexibility, and it can also be worn open; measurements are taken with the cardigan laid flat, fully buttoned, and unstretched.
