ABOUT THE DESIGN
Mette writes about the design:
Most things do well in miniature, and the simple yet recognizable pattern consisting of regular knit and purl stitches on the Little Esther Jacket is both timeless and ageless. The classic pattern is great for playing with colors since it will only be more noticeable the more bright and colorful you – or your child – dares to be. Little Esther Jacket is knitted from the top down in Jensen and Tvinni by Isager Yarn.

ISAGER LITTLE ARCHIVES
During a knitting workshop in Tversted where Helga Joná Thórunnardóttir and Helga Isager taught techniques used in the Isager Archives Collection, a kind participant suggested that the collection should be made for children as well. The idea was obvious and completely in the spirit of Åse Lund Jensen, as she was known for her sweaters for children that often also came in adult size, so that mother and child could match.
Luckily, almost all the designers were into the idea, and we are therefore pleased to be able to launch Little Isager Archives from September 2nd. Some of the models will be exact child-versions of the originals, whilst others will just have recognizable elements. The collection will be styled and photographed by our talented team, and the patterns will be available, as usual, via the designer’s individual platforms. Alle 10 designs are of course made with Isager yarn, and the sizes range from 2-12 years.
