Edda Sweater

60,00 DKK

English Knitting Pattern

The distinctive vertical lines of the Edda Sweater are inspired by Marianne Isager’s design Krydser from the 1980s. It has been designed with respect for the original and iconic expression.
Edda Sweater is classic aesthetics expressed in stitches. It is the result of a harmonious fusion between two time periods and two designers’ love of graphic expression and the timelessness.
Designed for the Isager Archives 2 Collection 2025

Arbejdsgang

The Edda Sweater is worked in stockinette stitch using the jacquard technique following a chart. The sweater is worked top down with a European shoulder seam. First, the top of the back yoke is worked in the flat. Next, stitches are picked up for the front pieces along each shoulder line on the back piece. When the top part of the front pieces are finished and the neck opening is shaped, the sections are joined and worked back and forth until the armhole depth is reached. Then, front piece and back piece are joined to form the body which is worked in the round following the chart. The body is worked until it reaches the desired length. Then, the ribbing is worked, and the stitches are bound off with the Italian bind off technique. Stitches are picked up along the armhole, and the sleeve is worked top down in the round. In the end, stitches are picked up along the neck opening.
In this pattern, one of the threads is dominant throughout the work. This creates a neat and uniform look.
