Information
The Chunky Bjarkan Sweater is a hand knitted raglan sweater with a timeless Nordic character. Inspired by the Bjarkan rune of the Elder Futhark, it combines traditional Scandinavian colourwork with a modern chunky silhouette. The result is a warm and comfortable sweater for everyday wear, outdoor adventures and colder days.
Each Chunky Bjarkan Sweater is hand knitted to order using one strand of Rauma Finull and one strand of DROPS Kid-Silk. The blend of Norwegian wool, mohair and silk creates a sweater that is soft, warm, lightweight and durable.
The Chunky Bjarkan Sweater can be ordered in a wide range of colours in addition to those shown in the shop. Please get in touch if you would like different colours, custom measurements or have any questions about sizing or delivery times.
