Water resistant wool mittens with a classic pattern shared with our Vail sweater. Made with 100% long-lasting Norwegian wool and lined with polyester. The pattern is taken from the Setesdal design, Norway’s most iconic pattern design which has been knitted for generations. The small v-shaped dots are known as the lice pattern, while the crosses were believed to protect from evil spirits. Setesdal (“Farm Valley” in English) is a valley and district in southern Norway, known for its rich farming heritage. Valløy is a peninsula in the Oslo fjord.
