AAP-FARSUND

Farsund Cardigan Pattern

Designed by Cheryl Toy

To honor Herlig's Viking, I've crafted the Farsund Cardigan, drawing from traditional Norwegian Selbu colourways and patterning. This stranded and steeked cardigan seamlessly blends the timeless artistry of the North with modern Canadian design sensibilities. The result is a striking, Nordic-inspired garment featuring a captivating  geometric motif, which gracefully extends from the seamless yoke down to the hem and cuffs.

Farsund is meticulously worked from the top down and thoughtfully steeked, ensuring a comfortable and stylish fit. To add an extra touch of elegance, the button band is elegantly lined with the accent colour, concealing cleverly hidden buttonholes. It's a fusion of heritage and contemporary fashion, uniting the best of Scandinavian and Canadian craftsmanship in a single must-have piece.

The sample is knit in Just Before Midnight (Main Colour), Au Naturel (Contrast Colour), and Heart (Accent Colour).
