Good to know

Aðventa — your questions, answered

Why two different yarns?
Plötulopi is unspun Icelandic wool in 100 g plates; Einband is a fine 1-ply lace yarn. In this pattern one strand of each is always knitted together, which gives 15 stitches to 10 cm on 5.5 mm needles and a soft, slightly heathered fabric.
Which size should I knit?
Five sizes — S, M, L, XL and 2XL — with a chest of 90, 98, 106, 116 and 125 cm all round.
Shorter or longer — how do I choose?
The longer version adds 4 cm to both body and sleeves: body to underarm 34–42 cm shorter or 38–46 cm longer, depending on size. The kit has yarn enough for either.
Will I have yarn left over?
The kit holds the amount for XL and 2XL: 4 plates of jasper red, 1 of ivory beige, 5 balls of midnight blue and 2 of white. S, M and L use 3 red, 4 midnight blue and 1 white.
What does the kit with needles include?
5.5 mm (US 9) circular needles in 40 and 80 cm, 4.5 mm (US 7) circular needles in 40 and 80 cm, and 4.5 mm and 5.5 mm double-pointed needles — ADDI, the sizes the pattern names.
