Setesdal Norwegian Sweater


I just finished a traditional Norwegian Sweater for Bryan.  I handspun the yarn from our Border Leicester (black) and Rambouillet sheep (white and red).  The ribbon is from the United Kingdom and has the traditional Norwegian rose woven  into the design.  I created the patterns from a photo of a Setesdal sweater in a museum in Norway.  I had a lot of fun making this sweater.  Now Bryan gets to break it in.  The sweater should be nice and warm with 2 layers of wool formed from using 2 colors.  Perfect for a Wyoming winter.
