Hustadvika is the warm layer, thicker than Havbris and made for days at a calm pace in cold weather. The sweater is worn right against the body or as a mid-layer under the snowsuit.
It is knitted using Brit’s knitting method – air knitted into every stitch, which keeps your child warm even when they take a break. Brit Vinje Lyngstad invented the method in 1994 because Eilif was cold. The method was tested by SINTEF in 1995, and the test subjects were neither too warm while working nor too cold during the breaks. Wool can absorb a lot of moisture without feeling wet, so you stay warm even when you stop after being active.
“Super nice and comfortable, even for children who are quick to feel that ‘it itches’.” – Johanna F.
- Soft merino wool that many customers tell us doesn’t itch – even right against the skin.
- Worn right against the body or as a mid-layer under the snowsuit.
- 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.
