This pullover means a little extra for me. The name Fjärilsvingar, means Butterfly wings in swedish, comes partially from the structure on the yoke looks like butterflies but also because I have been through an emotional and spiritual journey. Just like the butterfly going from a caterpillar to finally unfold its beautiful wings.
