The pattern desing became popular from the charismatic photo of the fisherman. These photos were taken on the occasion of the fishing exhibition in Bodø in 1904. The organizers wanted a photograph of a typical northern Norwegian fisherman, for use in marketing. The photographer Louise Engen from Bodø took the photos with Johannes Folgerø from Sandnessjøen as a model. He was 52 years old at the time, a fisherman and a well-known seiner, originally from Finnås in Hordaland. Folgerø had probably moved to Helgeland around 1870, in connection with the rich herring fishery. After a period on Dønna, where he also married, the family settled in Sandnes in Sandnessjøen. Around 1893, Folgerø bought a seiner together with merchant Otto Koch in Bodø. The photos belong to the museum's Lillegaard collection. Lofoten wool has taken this traditional knitting pattern and transformed into its own design, giving a new ligth to the emblematic design. The origin of the pattern is probably from the Feroe islands, since it was from there where many Norwegian fisherman got their sweaters at the end of the 19th and beginning of the 20th centuries. The Faroe Islands where great exporters of knitted goods to Scandinavia, but the history of this sweater needs to be researched in depth, something Ranghild is looking forward to do. 687 2024 iain Norwegian Physical Object 433 Genser Islender Johannes Folgero 02/07/2025 10/07/2025 https://lofoten-wool.no/en https://www.nibio.no/prosjekter/amazing-grazing-baerekraftig-kjott-og-ull-fra-sau-som-beiter-i-norsk-utmark?locationfilter=true https://www.smabrukarlaget.no/aktuelt/bonde-og-smaabruker/, https://www.norskekunsthandverkere.no/kunstnerregister/ragnhild-lie https://husflid.no/ https://www.utdanningsforbundet.no/ https://www.bondelaget.no/ Esther Haukeland, Innføring til plantefarging.
