landscapes and the geometric patterns of snowflakes. The simple colourwork pattern gives it a classic look with a
Nordic touch.
It is knitted in Önling No 1, a luxurious blend of wool and angora, making it lightweight, warm, and comfortable to wear.
The Northern Scarf is a beautiful accessory, perfect for the cold months when you need extra warmth around your
