Farfuglar is an Icelandic sweater knitted in Léttlopi. The pattern includes two color schemes – red and white – with migrating birds across the yoke and matching multicolored patterns at the cuffs.
The pattern is inspired by brave little migratory birds that fly far north. Their arrival brings joy and their departure sorrow. The body and sleeves are knitted in the round from the bottom up and joined into a patterned yoke with a wider neckline.
Designer: Védís Jónsdóttir
