Védís Jónsdóttir’s round-yoke sweater from Ístex’s Lopi 43 is knitted with one strand of Plötulopi and one of Einband held together all the way: jasper red with midnight blue for a deep, heathered red, and ivory beige with white for the pale pattern — stars and diamonds round the base of the yoke, then tall pointed panels up to a folded neckband.

The body is cast on with 136 (148, 160, 174, 188) stitches, knitted in K1, P1 rib for 5 cm on 4.5 mm, then straight in stocking stitch on 5.5 mm to 34 (36, 38, 40, 42) cm for the shorter length or 38 (40, 42, 44, 46) cm for the longer. The sleeves start with the same 5 cm rib and are increased to 55 (58, 61, 65, 69) stitches. Body and sleeves are joined for the round yoke: a 50-round chart with five decrease rounds, from 210 (224, 238, 252, 266) stitches to 60 (64, 68, 72, 76); the smaller sizes leave out marked rounds. The neckband is K1, P1 rib on 4.5 mm, with short rows to raise the back of the neck, knitted until it measures 8 cm at the front, bound off loosely, folded in half to the inside and slip-stitched down. The underarms are grafted.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eDesign: Védís Jónsdóttir — pattern from Lopi No. 43 (no. 12), Ístex.\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Ístex","offers":[{"title":"English","offer_id":67601342890037,"sku":"PAT-EN-ADVENTA","price":8.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1662\/1057\/files\/lopi43-adventa-1_4be944d9-295b-43aa-8dc5-9b531339f5ac.jpg?v=1791005098","url":"https:\/\/icelandicstore.is\/products\/adventa-red-yoke-sweater-knitting-pattern","provider":"The Icelandic Store","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
