Camping in Scotland
'It was the first time we had an outdoor vacation like this, but we would for sure love to do it again. Scotland is such a beautiful country and very easy to camp in.' We love seeing Andersen-Andersen in action, and the Autumn weather in Scotland couldn’t have been better. In October, the Karstad family, including chef Mikkel Karstad, Camilla Karstad and their children, went on a road trip along the beautiful Scottish coastline to the Isle of Skye. They naturally spent most of their time outside hiking, fishing, cooking, and swimming in the lakes. The trip culminated in a family-style, long-table dinner they hosted at Glen Dye near Aberdeen.

Lyserød with Tal R.
What is Lyserød? It's is the Danish word for pink, but pink is not quite the right word for the colour we've developed with Danish artist Tal R.'There’s no such thing as a Lyserød Sailor Sweater, but that didn’t stop us from making one. It began several years ago when Peter and I really wanted to make a Lyserød sweater but knew it was impossible to work into the concept of our company. Peter suggested we ask Tal R to help develop the colour, and here we are today.'- Cathrine Lundgren-Andersen

The Training Ship Danmark
Every year, 80 students leave the modern world behind to spend three months at sea on the Training Ship Danmark (Skoleskibet Danmark), a fully rigged three-masted ship from 1932. We’ve provided sailor sweaters as part of the uniforms since 2017, and we’re proud to support the ambitions of this wonderful ship.The Training Ship Danmark is exactly what it sounds like – a floating education. For the young Danish students who get to learn the basics of sailing, it’s often a life-changing experience. No phones, very limited internet access - just a chance to test themselves in an environment a long way from their comfort zone.

It could have been a chair
The sailor sweater was not always destined to be a sailor sweater. It could have been a lamp or a coat stand. It could very easily have been a chair. When we started, our only wish was to make something usable, beautiful and durable – a homage to the Danish design tradition of making functional objects without compromising on craft. It’s a way of thinking and being that we share with the exceptionally skilled craftspeople at A. Petersen. The philosophies of our two companies are informed by history but inspired by the demands of a sustainable future. Just as our sweaters are knitted to last a lifetime, A. Petersen makes furniture with a conscience. The things we create will only become more beautiful through time and use. Nothing is throwaway here. Founded in 2014 to honour the Danish design tradition while bringing it into the future, A. Petersen makes furniture slowly. Each piece is crafted in a measured way with an acknowledgement of tradition and a determination to last a lifetime – and beyond. If you ever find yourself in Copenhagen, be sure to pay their shop and showroom a visit. For now, we’re happy to share a bit of their world with you here.
