Navia
one of the leading companies in the yarn and sweater industry of the Faroe Islands
As the old saying goes, "necessity is the mother of invention" - or, as the Faroese say, "necessity teaches the naked woman to spin and weave."
Navia is a relative newcomer to the tradition of yarn production. It gathers its Faroese wool from local sheep farmers. It is one of the leading companies in the Faroese yarn and sweater industry, well-known in the foreign market, and ships its products to a dozen countries abroad.
Across its varied catalogue, the Navia yarn contains a wool mix of Australian lamb’s wool, Shetlandic and Faroese wool, as well as cotton and silk. This makes up a broad range of 1-ply, 2-ply and 3-ply knitting yarns, sock yarn, and traditional Faroese raw yarn. The Navia sweaters similarly take inspiration from traditional Faroese knitting culture mixed with modern style trends.
Navia’s customer base covers all age groups, from children to the elderly, and its designs are explicitly targeted at each age group.
Another product line of Navia is the unique Knitting Book - a series of designs and patterns put together by a dedicated Navia team of local knitters, also wide-ranging in their background, from fish workers to well-educated designers, aged between 15 and 84. They receive a set task, which is then produced by hand. Their designs are photographed and handpicked for larger-scale production and individual sales. The patterns are written down and translated into several languages, including Danish, Swedish, English and Icelandic.
