Falcade Sweater
Falcade Jumper
This sweater, or jumper (depending where you are in the world) wants to be a twist on the traditional Norwegian Setesdal sweater. The construction, though, maintaining the steeked set-in sleeve, is revisited to create a more modern and fitted look.
The Stranded colourwork blinks to the formal Setesdal design, repurposing a traditional pattern used to decorate costumes and household items in the region of Falcade, in the Italian Dolomites.
On the construction
This pattern provides a bottom-up construction, with set-in sleeves knitted separately from the body and steeked at completion.
