Védís Jónsdóttir’s children’s round-yoke sweater from Ístex’s Lopi 27 in its purple version, knitted with two strands of Plötulopi held together: a purple body with a yoke of small diamond and flower shapes in midnight blue. The pattern’s hyacinth (1429) is no longer made; this kit has 2026 amethyst in its place — a cooler, bluer purple than the sweater in the photo.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIncluded\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIcelandic Plötulopi wool yarn — yarn for the largest size is included, so every size is covered\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\u003ePlötulopi — 100 g plates\u003c\/strong\u003e · to fit 8 (10 12 14) years\u003cbr\u003e\nA 2026 Amethyst (in place of 1429 hyacinth) — 3 (4 4 5)\u003cbr\u003e\nB 0709 Midnight Blue — 1 (1 1 1)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSizes\u003c\/strong\u003e — to fit 8, 10, 12 and 14 years.
