Information
The Hestholm Sweater is a colourful and warm wool sweater featuring a detailed pattern in six colours. Shades of blue, yellow, grey and natural white stand out beautifully against the dark background, creating a distinctive design inspired by traditional Nordic colourwork.
The sweater is knitted in Viking Wool, 100% Highland merino wool. The pure wool makes it wonderfully warm and cosy, perfect for cooler days and changing seasons.
Hestholm is a versatile sweater made for both everyday wear and outdoor life. Wear it on crisp autumn days, throughout winter, at the cabin, by the sea or whenever you need a warm and comfortable wool sweater. Its timeless design and classic fit make it suitable for both women and men.
The raglan shaping creates a comfortable fit across the shoulders, while the high, double neckline provides extra warmth and a beautifully finished look. Hestholm is designed to be a sweater you can wear and enjoy year after year.
The sweater can be ordered in more colours than those shown in the online shop. Please feel free to get in touch if you would like a different colour or have any questions about delivery times.

Knitting the Hestholm sweater
The Hestholm sweater is knitted in the round, which means that instead of knitting back and forth in rows, you’ll be working in continuous circles to create a seamless garment. Knitting in the round is an efficient technique that eliminates the need for side seams, giving the jumper a smooth, even finish.
