When Koigu Wool Designs first began, Maie and Taiu Landra
sold sweaters handknit out of our own sheep’s wool at local
markets. We are bringing back 10 of these 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.

KOIGU SHEEP SWEATER
The hand-drawn KOIGU Sheep logo, created by Maie, is a
graphic representation of the brand’s essence. Its flowing,
organic lines poetically honor the legacy and vision of Koigu
Wool Designs.
