Laura Dalgaard designed the Nordic Mix Sweater for Fremstrikk. It is a sweater with colorwork patterns inspired by traditional knitting from the Nordic countries. “I am first and foremost inspired by the yarn, that is Fivel. I wanted to create a mash-up of various traditional patterns and give them new life,” Laura says. She found old pictures of knitted sweaters, cut them apart, and glued them back together to create a sweater with different patterns. Laura also made a swatch with traditional patterns that included a leopard pattern to break it up a bit. But it wasn’t enough. It had to be more unique. She then tried to blend the different patterns together. That’s when it started to resemble what she had envisioned.
