Gavida
Introducing the stunning *Gavida Pullover*, a beautifully designed fitted pullover named after the God of the Forge. This piece showcases an exquisite crest-like cable pattern at the top of the front, the bottom of the back, and at the cuff of both sleeves. The rest of the pullover is elegantly crafted in stockinette stitch to allow the intricate cable work to truly shine. The *Gavida Pullover* is designed to provide the ultimate fit, worked in separate pieces for a tailored silhouette that flatters every body type. It features a classic crew neck that beautifully transitions into a double neckband in ribbing, adding both style and comfort.
Crafted from the divine *Bastøy* yarn—a luxurious blend of silk and pelt wool created by Oslo Mikrospinneri and hand dyed by the artisans at Værbitt—this pullover is as soft as it is stunning. It not only offers warmth but also a touch of sophistication to your knitwear collection.
