Good to know

Geisli — your questions, answered

Which size should I knit?
Four sizes — 86, 92, 98 and 104 — European sizes named after the child’s height in cm. Chest 62, 66, 70 and 74 cm; 19 to 25 cm from hem to underarm.
Why Plötulopi and Einband together?
One strand of unspun Plötulopi and one of fine Einband are knitted as one, which gives 15 stitches to 10 cm on 5.5 mm needles. The denim heather Einband runs through every colour.
Will I have yarn left over?
The kit holds one plate each of clover green, spruce green and winter blue Plötulopi and two balls of denim heather Einband — the pattern’s amounts, the same for every size.
The chart is printed in pink and yellow — how do I knit the green-blue version?
The chart key gives both versions: knit the yellow squares in winter blue, the orange squares in spruce green and the pink squares in clover green, each with the denim Einband. The pattern prints “glover green” for 1423; it is clover green.
Do I have to cut my knitting?
Yes. Purled stitches at centre front form a steek: machine-stitch twice through them, cut between the rows, and cover the cut edges with single crochet before picking up the button bands.
What does the kit with needles include?
5.5 mm (US 9) circular needles in 40 and 60 cm; 4.5 mm (US 7) circular needles in 40 and 60 cm; 4.5 mm and 5.5 mm double-pointed needles — ADDI, as named in the pattern. The 4.5 mm crochet hook and the buttons are not included.
