A new take on a timeless classic. The pattern design is taken from our original 1956 Cortina sweater – our first ever Olympic sweater made for the 1956 Winter Olympics in Cortina d’Ampezzo. This pattern captures the very essence of Norwegian tradition and has become one of Norway’s most beloved patterns. 

The Cortina hat is made of 100% fine Norwegian wool. This yarn offers incredibly lightness and a unique, crisp look. For extra comfort, the inside is knitted with soft merino wool.

Heron - Fine Norwegian Wool

Made from 100% fine Norwegian wool from the sheep’s very first shearing.

The fibers are short, giving us a finer and softer yarn. The outcome is thin, light and soft garments, while maintaining the brilliance, crimp and longevity for which Norwegian wool is world renowned.

Norwegian wool is one of the world’s most animal-friendly textile fibers, due to the sheep’s natural mountain life. Our Norwegian wool comes from sheep known for roaming freely in the vast Norwegian hillsides while grazing in natural pastures.

To make it machine washable the Heron yarn undergoes a revolutionary new wool treatment using natural non-toxic salts. Machine wash using wool-cycle. (Fiber diameter: 30.5 micron)
