The Knitting Chair was designed in 1951 by the talented Ib Kofod-Larsen. Despite an initially limited release, the design quickly became an icon of Danish innovation and craftsmanship thanks to its ergonomic comfort and striking silhouette. The distinctive open-arm construction was intended to accommodate the natural movement of the arms when knitting, giving the piece its name. This sculptural feature invites a deeply relaxing pose and is emblematic of Danish Modernism ideals of simplicity, function and comfort – ideals that endure today.
