Let’s Talk about our latest Collection for Rowan: New Nordic Men’s!

Hello from Fanø, Denmark!

We have been spending a few days in this beautiful little Danish island with a big knitting festival and it has been delightful! Unfortunately, we have been too busy to take many photos, but you can read more about the festival by clicking here.

This week on our YouTube Channel, we do a run through of our latest collection for Rowan, which we are calling New Nordic Men’s, but which could also be unisex, as we know a lot of women would love to wear these styles too!

We love to talk about the design process, so it’s always fun to introduce our designs to you and explain a little bit more about what is hiding behind each and every pattern.This Rowan collection is particularly close to our heart, as we are very pleased with how it turned out. That being said, it is always such a relief when we finish a project and can let it go – to live its own life!
