May is a lovely month for many Norwegians. We connect it with green grass, flowers, barbeque, exam, holiday, midnightsun and our nationalday. The pattern is inspired by the colors in the Norwegian flag: red, white and blue. It has an oversized fit, and is perfect for hiking trips in the cold spring air.
