MARIUS knitted mittens, navy

MARIUS® also for adults A modern variant of the original Norwegian pattern Marius®. Honest wool mittens with the Norwegian MARIUS pattern Material - 50% merino wool, 50% acrylic Adult sizes: S/M M/L Original Norwegian pattern MARIUS® MARIUS is a term among Norwegian patterns. The most used Norwegian pattern comes from the work of designer Unn Soiland from the 1950s. He gained fame thanks to the movie Troll i ord and the actor Marius Eriksen. The sweater, knitted from 100% Norwegian wool, is produced under original license at the Rauma Ullvarefabrikk factory on the west coast of Norway in Andalsnes. In recent years, however, the license has expanded to include a line for children (Marius Kids), underwear, jackets and a range of souvenirs. But the Marius pattern is also popular thanks to the Norwegian fondness for knitting according to instructions. Marius is still published today in the "strikkepakke" version, i.e. a package of wool, needles and instructions so that everyone can knit their own Marius sweater at home.
