Details
Ingeborg features a longer length and a slightly relaxed fit. It offers comfortable coverage without excess bulk. The lightweight merino wool knit drapes naturally, while side slits allow the hem to move freely when walking or sitting. A three-quarter-length, two-way zipper offers flexible styling, and the simple crewneck keeps the neckline understated. Available in sizes S–XL, it layers comfortably over a blouse, dress, or lightweight top.
Design Notes
Off White and Black create a crisp, graphic contrast that brings definition to Ingeborg's intricate Scandinavian folk patterns. The monochromatic palette highlights the detailed all-over knit design while keeping the overall look clean and versatile.
A transition in the pattern around the midsection creates subtle waist definition without the need for a fitted cut. Paired with the cardigan's longer silhouette, this thoughtful design detail creates a flattering balance between structure and ease.
Wear it with black trousers for a polished look, or let the patterned knit take center stage over simple denim and boots.
History
Ingeborg is a traditional Scandinavian feminine name with roots in Old Norse, historically associated with Ing, the name of a Germanic deity, and borg, meaning protection or fortress. The name has been used for centuries throughout Norway and other Nordic countries.
The cardigan's decorative folk patterns reflect Scandinavian textile traditions, where geometric motifs have long been part of regional knitwear. Designed and knitted in Norway, Ingeborg brings these influences into a contemporary, everyday garment.
