This Sami inspired outdoor sweater, Čoarvegiella Winter, is a spacious and thick sweater. It is knitted from the bottom up. The pattern is inspired by the lasso ring used in reindeer herding. The Sami word Čoarvegiella (pronounced tshåarvegjella) means lasso ring in Norwegian. There's plenty of room for wool underwear under the sweater. Good luck with your project, and happy hiking.
The sweater design is made by the Norwegian designer Christina Gjertsen, under the name of Sisu Knitwear. This violet sweater is knitted by Elisabeth Knedal.
