Design Notes:
The Ramberg sweater draws its inspiration from the traditional Fana sweater. Originating in Fana, a borough of Bergen, the striped sweaters were historically worn by men for everyday use and became a staple of local attire. Known as "Stripetroye," these striped sweaters also served as undergarments for marines, offering warmth and comfort beneath their uniforms. Women in Fana added their own flair to this heritage by wearing Fana sweaters beneath their bodices as part of their folk dress.
Ramberg is a village of around 350 people, nestled in the breathtaking Lofoten archipelago, surrounded by pristine beaches and sharp, towering mountain peaks. Fittingly, the name translates to “frame” and “mountain”.
