METHODS The sweater is knitted from the top down in the round with a two color pattern throughout the sweater. Lóla is oversized with an extra long ribbing on the sleeves, designed to fit the child for a longer time.

Alternatively, the sweater can be made in one color. * Available in English and Icelandic
