A crew neck cardigan hand-knitted in Norway in 100% wool, cream patterned in brown, chocolate and caramel, with silver-tone snowflake buttons, sold by Husfliden in Lillehammer.

Husfliden is the shop name of Norway's handicraft movement. Den Norske Husflidsforening was founded in 1891 to keep home crafts alive, and its shops sold hand-knitted clothing made across the country and gave out the patterns to make it. Someone knitted every stitch of this one. It is the cardigan for the first snow and every cold morning after it.
