Tales of Patagonia carries a quiet rhythm.
A design born from the wish to master colourwork – and to bring together two worlds; Norway and Chile.

The sweater is worked from the top down, in a mosaic pattern that gives both depth and calm. You knit with only one strand at a time. The motif appears slowly – through small movements, knits and purls shaping a piece of pattern like a jewel.
