The Amager pattern is inspired by the pulse and rhythm of city life. The bright colors provide the cardigan with a playful expression. The technique is fair isle knit with a lot of shifts between color, making the cardigan inspiring to knit. The Amager Cardigan is knitted in our Merino yarn, which is gentle to the skin and can be washed in the washing machine.
