Flow Sweater Knitting Kit
Flow Sweater Strikkekit – Spektakelstrik x Flow Intimates
Flow Sweater Knitting Kit in the color multi is a special and exclusive knitting kit created in collaboration between Spektakelstrik and Flow Intimates. The kit combines modern Nordic knitting with a story that invites greater openness about menstruation and women's health.
The distinctive blood drop pattern is a subtle detail with a larger message. A reminder of something natural that has been shrouded in silence for far too long.

More than a sweater
Flow Sweater is not just about the finished result.
It is also about the process.
Knitting requires time, presence and small breaks. Those breaks can be valuable in a busy everyday life – and especially during periods when the body needs a little extra peace, such as in the late luteal phase or during menstruation.
Each mask therefore becomes a small invitation to slow down and create something with your hands.
Designed by Spektakelstrik and Flow Intimates
Flow Sweater is the result of a creative collaboration between Spektakelstrik and Flow Intimates.
Together we have created a design that combines Spektakelstrik's playful design language with Flow's mission to make menstruation and women's health something we talk about more openly.
It's a sweater that both warms the body and starts conversations.

This pattern is for experienced knitters, and a knitting pattern is included in the package.
The sweater is knitted flat from the top down on the body. First the back is knitted, then the front piece is knitted from the back. The front and back piece are sewn together at the sides, and stitches are knitted up to the sleeves and neck. The drops are knitted using the intarsia technique and finally brushed up with a mohair brush to get a fluffy look.
Mohair brush sold separately.

Circular needle size 4 mm (60 cm)
Circular needle size 3.5 mm (60 cm)
Knitting tension:

Spektakelstrik x Flow
Spektakelstrik and Flow Intimates have designed the sweater with two missions:
1) It's time to give menstruation (and menopause) more conversation time in public - and the sweater with its blood drops is a good conversation starter.
2) Because knitting is a wonderful way to find and give yourself peace, which is quickly forgotten in a society where we all have to be able to perform equally.
"We hope that the sweater will provide space for reflection and good conversations in public spaces and certainly also pride in the person who knits it. Pride in the small break in everyday life it required to be created - and pride in carrying the blood that we are so used to hiding far, far away."
- Mie Firring and Cathrine Wichmand
Remember a brush for your Flow Sweater
The mohair brush is used to make the blood drops on your Flow Sweater *fluffy*. You can generally use it to brush up your knitwear. Good for long-haired fibers such as mohair and angora.
