Steinum knitwear is characterized by strong colours and eye-catching patterns. The designs are humorous, speckled with a hint of childish naivety. The colour combination is inspired by the way children put colours together, uninhibited by conventions and tradition.

The style is bold, cheeky and infectious. Suited for confident women wanting to display their individuality. Steinum’s approach incorporates traditional Faroese patterns and styles into quirky, idiosyncratic pieces in candy-coloured and cute proportions.

The Steinum garments are produced by Faroese and Ukrainian women. Both countries have strong traditions for knitting. The Ukrainian economy was shattered by the current economic crisis, and thousands of unskilled labourers lost their jobs. Hand knitting allows these women to be self-sufficient while staying in their own homes and taking care of their families.

Steinum garments are handmade and individually produced with great care for quality, materials and people.
