"Linen is a fascinating material with its functionality, timelessness and durability. The contrast between the matte and glossy in the linen is magical.”

"The Dala horse pattern has been a much appreciated pattern that was born in 1995. It all started when I made gingerbread cookies with my daughter and then saw a graphic pattern in the dough after efficient punching of the cookie form."

The special thing about the pattern is that each horse is unique. And since 1995, the pattern has adorned cushions, table runners, oven mitts, kitchen aprons, towels and ware by the metre. In 1995, Jeanette contacted Ljungberg textile, who quickly became very interested in the pattern. What was perceived as ground-breaking was that the figures were placed "holes around noise", something that had not been seen on the market before. Different color schemes were printed by hand on textile. The pattern also made an appearance as an item by the meter at Svensk Tenn, where it was proudly displayed in all shop windows during its launch year. Carl Malmsten's shop also produced larger trays with the pattern.

After Ljungberg's bankruptcy, Frösö Handtryck contacted Jeanette and then got the rights to the pattern, and in 2015 the pattern was taken over by Klässbols Linneväveri. To weave the pattern, the original templates from the year 1995 were scanned and production was underway. Frösö Handtryck also broadened the area of ​​use for the pattern by introducing it on a variety of new products such as toiletry bags and bags, further testifying to its versatility and timeless popularity.
