Hustadvika is the warm layer. It is thicker than Havbris and made for the days when you spend a lot of time still in the cold: on your stand during the hunt, in the boat, fetching firewood or on the sidelines when the kids are playing a match. If you get warm, you open the half zip at the front.
The sweater is knitted using Brit’s knitting method – air knitted into every stitch, which keeps you warm even when you take a break. The method was tested by SINTEF in 1995, including on Svalbard at −23 °C. Wool can absorb a lot of moisture without feeling wet, so you stay warm even when you stop after being active.
“just as useful as underwear in rough weather outdoors as a cosy sweater in front of the fireplace at home. … not a hint of itching.” – Per G.
- Soft merino wool that many customers tell us doesn’t itch – even right against the skin.
- Worn right against the skin, as a mid layer or on its own as a sweater.
- On the coldest days: Havbris next to the skin, Hustadvika on top.
- 100% merino wool. The wool is RWS-certified, with requirements for animal welfare and traceability throughout the value chain.

WHO IS BEHIND IT
Knitted using Brit's knitting method
In 1994, Brit Vinje Lyngstad knitted a sweater with extra air in the stitches for her husband, Eilif, who came home wet and cold from work on the farm. The garment you are looking at is knitted according to the same principle.
Today, her daughter Gunn Anne and her children carry Lanullva forward from Atlanterhavsveien.
