Named after the region of Mulgimaa in southern Estonia, Mulgi is the region’s dialect, as well as the name of the people who come from there. Mulgimaa is known for its distinct black folk costume coats worn by men, embellished with red cording. In the spirit of this region, the Mulgi sweater is adorned with red embellishment in the form of bobbles.

This saddle stitch shoulder sweater features wrapped nuppud or bobbles in a contrasting colour over a 2x2 rib pattern for a smock effect on the sleeves. The saddle stitch construction is done seamlessly from the top down.
