CIAO,
Un giorno mi piacerebbe venire a vivere nella bellissima Norvegia. Nel frattempo, ho appena acquistato un maglione Dale da un negozio dell’usato (vivo in Giappone) e sarei molto grato se qualcuno potesse darmi maggiori informazioni a riguardo.
Finora credo che sia vintage forse degli anni ’80. È una taglia da uomo, realizzata in lana. Sarebbe utile conoscere lo stile e qualsiasi altra informazione interessante.
Grazie in anticipo per qualsiasi feedback.

It’s a Dale sweater. Known Norwegian company, makes lots of wool stuff. I don’t know what you’re looking for. It’s like asking about a pair of Levis.
That just looks like an ordinary wool sweater.

Here’s the international page for Dale. I hope it is helpful.
Grey with snowflake pattern
Its decorated with the traditional Selburose or eight petal rose. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Selburose
It’s a brand cloth and not something grandma knitted in a specific region, if that’s what you hope to find out
Some information for taking care of it! (Just in case. Sorry if you already know).
Wool has been developed over several hundreds of millennia through liberal use of animal testing, as such it has some interesting properties.
It is self-cleansing and anti-microbial, so unless something nasty has happened to it, washing only requires water and not soap. Simply handwashing a bit, lightly squeezing the water out and leaving it to dry is recommended.
It will shrink when washed in warm water, it will eventually fray if tumbled roughly in the washing machine.
It can probably be washed in the machine now and again on few rotations and low temp, but it’ll decrease its’ lifespan.
Id guess its from the 90’s with the very traditional Selbu rose and the smallest dots are called lice. But even though it has some lice and the Selbu rose its not a lusekofte or selbukofte.. i think its a mix between different local traditions.
The named regional sweaters are normally hand knit. They will only in very rare cases have a commercial label. Those will be very old. This one is newer.
