Dale of Norway - Setesdal Unisex Cardigan
Vanilla Sugar/Natural White (83291-M00)
Details:
The iconic Setesdal Unisex Cardigan, features Norway’s most recognizable knit pattern, is inspired by the historic original "Setesdal Lusekofte". The distinctive V-shaped dots are known as the “lice” pattern, and cross design is believed to offer protection from evil spirits.
Crafted in Norway from durable, long-lasting Norwegian wool, the Setesdal Unisex Cardigan blends timeless design with premium materials. Authentic pewter clasps and traditional embroidered trimmings mirror the original design, paying homage to its rich cultural roots.
This M00 colorway is made from undyed, lightweight wool—showcasing the natural tones of the animal fiber. By skipping the dyeing process, the wool retains its inherent beauty and softness, offering a breathable, eco-conscious garment that’s both natural and stylish.
The Setesdal Unisex Cardigan has a classic straight fit with a round neckline, traditional braided trim and authentic pewter clasp along the entire length of the front opening.
This unisex garment is made with measurements corresponding our men’s sizes. For women’s sizes we recommend selecting one size smaller than your usual size.
