Rova Sweater

The Rova Sweater is a great combination of two cultures: Sami and Finnish. The design on the yoke is inspired by Sami woven bands, and the name is from Finland. Some believe that the Santa Claus is from Rovaniemi, and since the sweater has a
 Christmas look to it, the name just had to be Rova.

 Finnish “o” is pronounced like a Norwegian “å”, so the correct name is Råva Sweater. **Size guide** The measurements in this pattern is only correct if the given gauge is achieved.
