When Koigu Wool Designs first began, Maie and Taiu Landra
sold sweaters handknit out of our own sheep’s wool at local
markets. We are bringing back 10 of these classic colourwork
sweaters designed by Koigu co-founder, Maie Landra, in the 80s
and 90s. Featuring traditional Estonian knitwear motifs in
bottom-up, seamed charted sweater patterns.

SNOWFLAKE SWEATER
The Snowflake Sweater blends traditions from across the North -combining the crisp geometry of Scandinavian snowflake motifs
with the decorative richness of Estonian embroidery. The result is a sweater that unites two distinct folk textile heritages in a
striking allover pattern.
