ABOUT THE DESIGN
Hanne Rimmen writes about the design:
Aase sweater boasts a graphic pattern, which with its weaving repetitions, evokes a sleek and contemporary Nordic look.
The pattern is inspired by the knitwear designer Åse Lund Jensen, particularly her enchanting pattern named “Skæl”, which was originally crafted for a tote design.
Throughout the 50s and 60s, Åse pioneered an iconic style with focus on blending patterns and rhythmic decrease and increase in her pattern knitwork. These details are revived in a modern context within this design, paying respect to the original craftsmanship.
Aase sweater is designed for the Isager Archives 2024 collection, a collaborative effort with Isager.

ISAGER ARCHIVES COLLECTION
In the summer of 2023, Helga Isager invited a group of Denmark’s best knit designers for an inspiring weekend at Isager in Tversted. Here, they bagan their work on the Isager Archives collection, where all models are inspired by Åse Lund Jensen’s patterns from the 1960s and 1970s.
On the contrary to the political knitwear of the time which cultivate spontaneity and knitting without a pattern, Åse’s designs were always very well thought out and clearly showed her background as a tailor. We treasure her neat patterns and drawings and keep them all in binders which we normally only have access to ourselves.
In the Isager Archives collection, each designer has taken inspiration from one or more patterns from the archives to create a new and contemporary design.
The Isager Archives collection consists of 12 modern and timeless pieces of knitwear.
