Anne writes about her design
KARLA CAPE is my contribution to the collaborative collection, ISAGER ARCHIVES. The collection is inspired by the knitting patterns of Åse Lund Jensen, from the 1950s, 60s, and 70s.
My design is based on a pattern called BRIKKER, which features a cape and a matching beanie. I was drawn to the graphic slipped stitch pattern in the original design and have reinterpreted it for KARLA CAPE. I like the concept of wearing a cape over your clothing, but I find it somewhat inconvenient in practical terms. When you’re moving through your daily routine, you need your clothes to be functional and fit well. For this reason, I have decided to modify the design into a more controlled form, such as a spacious cardigan with a half sleeve.
The slipped stitch pattern is a simple technique that lets you knit a two-color pattern using only one color at a time. This means the knitting appears stranded or Fair Isle but knitted with only one color at a time. As a result, this method is beginner-friendly and much easier to knit.
