Every year I knew I would get one hand-knit sweater from Santa for Christmas. Mom was a master of the nordic knitwear and she knit me mittens, socks, caps and scarves, but the sweaters were from Santa, so they were special. She didn’t stick to the traditional colors either. I remember one in particular, it was pink, grey and white and was my absolute favorite of all time. Mom’s sweaters had metal buttons and sometimes frog closures, but she did make a black, grey and red one with a zipper for me. For this reason, I have found the Aoharu releases of
Nordic knitwear absolutely irresistible. It’s almost like getting a present from Santa.
