Details:
The Liberg Women's Cardigan is a lightweight merino wool sweater designed to deliver warmth without the bulk of a traditional heavy knit. It has a slim silhouette and J-sleeve construction that create a streamlined, feminine shape, while the medium-high neck offers comfortable coverage when temperatures drop. A full-length two-way zipper adds flexibility for layering and makes it easy to adjust the fit from the top or hem.
This cardigan works beautifully as a mid layer under a ski jacket or winter coat, yet is polished enough to wear on its own.
Design Notes:
There is no mistaking the Liberg for an ordinary cardigan. Bold blocks of marine navy, off white, and raspberry red give the traditional Norwegian pattern a fresh, energetic personality, while the iconic eight-petal rose brings a distinctly Nordic signature to the design.
The result lands in that sweet spot between heritage knitwear and modern sportswear. Wear it zipped up for a crisp, athletic look, open over a simple base layer for après-ski, or pair it with jeans and boots when your mountains happen to be several hundred miles away.
History:
The name Liberg draws from Norwegian landscape language: li, meaning a hillside or slope, and berg, meaning rock or mountain. Together, the name evokes the rugged terrain that has shaped Norwegian outdoor life, culture, and clothing traditions for generations.
Its eight-petal rose motif also connects the cardigan to Norway’s long decorative knitting heritage. Reinterpreted through bold color blocking and a contemporary silhouette, the Liberg carries that tradition forward rather than simply recreating the past.
