JOHANNE_LOOP_SWEATER draws inspiration from the ‘Alstrøje’. A sweater in nuanced knitting designed in the 1960s or 1970s by Åse Lund Jensen, the founder of Isager. The interpretation is based on the original pattern repeat, and the shift in nuances is emphasized as the colours graduate from the top down over the sweater via the pattern repeat that extends to the bottom.

Johanne_loop_sweater is knitted top down. First, the front and back are knitted flat, and then joined in the round to form the body. The sleeve stitches are picked up along the arm hole and the sleeves are knitted in the round. To ensure a good fit, short rows are worked at the top of both the back, shoulders, and sleeves. The body and the lower part of the sleeves are knitted in two-coloured colourwork according to chart.

The Johanne Loop sweater is knitted with 1 strand of Isager tweed and 1 strand of Isager Yarn Silk Mohair. Knit the sweater holding the two strands of yarn together as one.
