FAABORG SWEATER JUNIOR The town of Faaborg on Fyn is known for its beautiful waterfront location and its maritime history.
Faaborg Sweater junior is designed for boys and girls and the series also includes a Faaborg sweater for adults.

The jumper features a distinctive yoke with wavy stripes that are an interpretation of the beautiful sunsets and the reflection of the clouds in the water of Faaborg Fjord.

Faaborg Sweater was designed in collaboration with the knitting festival „Knit-ting by the Sea 2023“.
