Gerður Sweater
Katrine loves to find her inspiration in nature. Flowers and green plants are essential elements in her life, and this shows everywhere in her private home. The pattern on this Icelandic sweater is Katrine’s interpretation of flowers. The yarn used for this design is Önling’s own No 1, which is perfectly suited for Fair-Isle patterns, as well as wonder-fully soft and pleasant to wear.

The sweater design is rather oversize, with a positive ease of approx. 10-15 cm (4-6 inches), which allows you to wear several layers under it when venturing out to enjoy nature.
