A fresh and relaxed interpretation of the famous Norwegian Sotra sweater, easily recognizable with a pattern of repeated eight-petal roses across it. The original Sotra sweater was part of our collection in the early 1990s. This comeback kid has now been updated with a young, wide and contemporary fit.

Made from 100% fine Norwegian wool from the sheep’s very first shearing. The fibers are short, giving us a finer and softer yarn.

  • The original Sotra sweater originates from the Sotra island, west of Bergen, exposed to the harsh weather from the North Sea. On this island a variation of the eight-petal rose pattern emerged: The roses are separated by diagonal lines on a contrasting background, giving us an intricate geometrical pattern. It is believed that the eight-petal rose came to the island around 1850, introduced by traders and sailors from the Hardanger region. The Sotra sweater was most likely worn at celebrations and special occasions only.

    This updated sweater is named after Bjorøy, a small island in the same archipelago as the Sotra island.

    Heron - Fine Norwegian Wool

    Made from 100% fine Norwegian wool from the sheep’s very first shearing.

    The fibers are short, giving us a finer and softer yarn. The outcome is thin, light and soft garments, while maintaining the brilliance, crimp and longevity for which Norwegian wool is world renowned.

    Norwegian wool is one of the world’s most animal-friendly textile fibers, due to the sheep’s natural mountain life. Our Norwegian wool comes from sheep known for roaming freely in the vast Norwegian hillsides while grazing in natural pastures.

    To make it machine washable the Heron yarn undergoes a revolutionary new wool treatment using natural non-toxic salts. Machine wash using wool-cycle. (Fiber diameter: 30.5 micron)
