We are in love with Isager’s newest collection of patterns: Isager Archives. In the summer of 2023, Helga Isager invited a group of the most talented Danish knitwear designers to meet around their shared passion for knitting and create a new collection of patterns inspired from the designs of Åse Lund Jensen from the 1960’s and 1970’s. The Flora Slipover is Camilla Vad’s contribution to the collection. She found inspiration in Åse Lund Jensen’s pattern “FLOWERS” (in Danish “BLOMSTER”), which is originally a cardigan and a sweater. A slipover with a floral pattern is as retro as it gets!
