Information
The Ur Sweater is a hand knitted circular yoke sweater made in Du Store Alpakka Sterk and DROPS Kid-Silk, featuring detailed colourwork in six shades. The decorative pattern bands create a timeless Nordic look, while the soft surface gives the sweater a luxurious finish.
Each sweater is hand knitted to order. The blend of alpaca, merino wool, nylon, mohair and silk creates a warm, soft and durable garment that is perfect for autumn walks, cold winter days and relaxed weekends at the cabin.
The sweater can be ordered in a wide range of colour combinations in addition to those shown in the shop. Please get in touch if you would like different colours or have any questions about delivery times.
