Good to know

Glypja — your questions, answered

Can I still buy the colour in the photo?
No. Orchid (0159), the dusty pink-purple in the photo, is no longer made by Ístex, and no current Álafosslopi colour is a close match. Our kit for this pattern uses dark soft purple (0163) — the same purple family, but deeper and darker than the scarf in the photo. You can also knit it in any Álafosslopi colour; it takes 2 balls.
How big is it?
One size: 12 cm wide and 190 cm long before the fringe. The pattern notes that the knit stretches a lot but does not say how to measure; we suggest measuring it lying flat without pulling. The fringe strands are cut 40 cm long. The pattern does not say to fold them, but folded in half through the edge, as is usual, they hang about 20 cm, which makes the scarf about 230 cm with the fringe (our calculation).
How much yarn do I need?
2 balls of Álafosslopi (100 g each) — the pattern’s one amount, for the scarf and the fringe. The fringe itself takes 42 strands of 40 cm, about 17 m (our calculation).
How is the open rib knitted?
After two set-up rows, the same row is worked on both sides: P1, then *K1, yarn over, drop the yarn-over from the row before, P1* six times, and knit the last stitch. Each yarn-over is dropped on the next row, which leaves the open ladders between the ribs. Before binding off, a last right-side row purls into the yarn-overs instead of dropping them, to secure them. Every row is written out; there is no chart.
Is the sweater in the photo part of the pattern?
No. The pattern is only the scarf. The striped sweater under it is a different pattern from the same book, Kross (Lopi 28 no. 4).
What else do I need?
The pattern lists only the yarn and a 6 mm (US 10) circular needle, 60 cm, which the scarf is knitted back and forth on. The fringe is attached with a crochet hook; it is not in the list, and no size is given.
How do I get the pattern?
The PDF is emailed to you right after purchase. Nothing is posted. It is in English and has 4 pages: the cover photo, one page with the materials, size, all the instructions and the finishing, a blank page and Ístex’s back cover.
