Little Rita Jacket (EN)

Beskrivelse

Little RITA Jacket is my contribution to the joint collection “ISAGER Little Archives” and is inspired by Åse Lund Jensen’s knitting patterns from the 50s, 60s and 70s. It is the children’s version af Rita Jacket.

Little Rita Jacket is inspired by the jacket “Pjusk”, which Åse designed in 1974 and is knitted in loop knit, with edges in woven knit and has a zip. Rita is a lovely light model and has many good features and details.

There are several instructional videos for the pattern.
