Icelandic Design Wool Cardigan Purple Floral Nordic Sweater W/metal Clasps Sz Lg

It reminded me of something out of a Sigrid Undset novel—weighty with tradition, resilient, quietly ornate. The pattern feels borrowed from frost-laced windowpanes and low winter sun—symmetrical, disciplined, yet soft around the edges. This Icelandic Design sweater, in deep heathered tones of indigo, black, and twilight violet, is more than just a cardigan. It’s a small act of preservation. The pewter hook-and-eye clasps feel like jewelry passed down through a northern bloodline. The floral banding near the hem and sleeves—stylized irises in soft purples and greens—adds warmth without sacrificing the solemn dignity of the Nordic motif. Fully lined. Mid-weight. And beaded just enough to catch the light when you pass through a doorway. I wore it once to a Scandinavian Christmas market in Ballard. It drew compliments from someone carrying a mug of glögg and a paper tray of pepperkaker. I didn’t stay long—just long enough to buy a carved wooden horse and remember that sometimes, we wear the past on purpose. #icelandicdesign #nordicsweater #pewterclasp #woolcardigan #fairisle #heritageknit #scandinavianknitwear #folkwearstyle #winterlayers #sigridundsetstyle
