Children’s mittens from Ístex’s Lopi 27 with a long brioche cuff that flares out at the top, edged in garnet red, above a snug ribbed wrist and a plain hand. The pattern’s lilac (1413) is no longer made; this kit has 1702 milkyway in its place. Milkyway is a paler lavender, and as it is the main colour, the mittens will look lighter than in the photo.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIncluded\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIcelandic Léttlopi wool yarn — 3 balls, enough for a pair in every size\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eKnitting pattern in English (PDF) — emailed right after purchase\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eADDI knitting needles — only if you choose the kit with needles\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eLéttlopi — 50 g balls\u003c\/strong\u003e · to fit 2 (4 6) years\u003cbr\u003e\nA 1409 Garnet Red — 1 (1 1)\u003cbr\u003e\nB 1702 Milkyway (in place of 1413 lilac) — 2 (2 2)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSizes\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThree children’s sizes, to fit 2, 4 and 6 years.

It is then joined into a round on 3.5 mm needles, decreased to 22, 24 or 28 stitches, and knitted in 4 rounds of 1×1 rib for the wrist. The hand is plain stocking stitch on 4 mm, with the thumb stitches knitted onto scrap yarn — mirrored for the right and the left mitten. The top is shaped with paired decreases at both sides down to 4 stitches, and the thumb is picked up and knitted last. Finally the open edges of the cuff are sewn together from the right side.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eDesign: Rebekka\/Baldrún — pattern from Lopi No. 27 (no. 16), Ístex.\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Ístex","offers":[{"title":"Without needles","offer_id":67600500719669,"sku":"KIT-EN-BJALLA","price":36.9,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"With needles","offer_id":67600507437109,"sku":"KIT-EN-BJALLA-NDL","price":56.9,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1662\/1057\/files\/lopi27-bjalla-1_a34e106d-6e66-4dfd-a9ba-26083fe03992.jpg?v=1790980780","url":"https:\/\/icelandicstore.is\/products\/bjalla-childrens-brioche-cuff-mittens-knitting-kit","provider":"The Icelandic Store","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
