Visions of Spring Sweater Kit
Part of a collection of 10 Classic colourwork sweaters designed by Koigu co-founder, Maie Landra, in the 80s and 90s. Featuring traditional Estonian knitwear motifs in bottom-up, seamed charted sweater patterns.
In Estonian knitting, the "Tollakiri" and "Ohvrikirstukiri" motifs, seen on socks
and mittens, are ancient symbols of protection and spirituality. These
designs are deeply rooted in pre-Christian beliefs and have been passed
down through generations. A crossed star or multi-pointed shape, found
throughout Estonia (notably in Viljandi, Seto, and Saaremaa), symbolizes
ancestral connection, blessings, and remembrance. In southern Estonia
(Mulgi, Võro), a stylized eight-pointed star or a square-cross within a grid is
common on dowry items, representing offerings made to gods and spirits.
