The artwork “Strikkekatten” which serves as the inspiration for this design, radiates a calm, timeless aesthetic reminiscent of classic sweaters passed down through generations. It blends nostalgia and durability, where simplicity and care create a harmonious balance between tradition and modern style. A reminder of the beauty in everyday life – where even a cat and a mouse can share space in a world woven with quiet and humour.
The design is also available for children as Lille Vilma.

The sweater is knitted from the top down, with short
rows at the top of the yoke to shape the neckline.
Raglan increases are started simultaneously and
continue down along the yoke.
The work is then divided for the body and sleeves, and
these parts are finished separately.
Both the body and sleeves are knitted with colourwork
according to chart, and are finished with ribbed edges,
which are cast off using an Italian bind-off.
