MORE ABOUT THE DESIGN
Marianne Nørbo has designed this elegant jacket, which has a unique fit and sophisticated details. The jacket is worked in garter stitch in our soft Highland yarn, while the collar is knitted in the contrasting Shiny Cotton yarn. The Gavnø Jacket is mounted with a YKK-zipper, which gives the quality a final touch.
