Good to know

Góa — your questions, answered

Can I still buy the colours in the photos?
Yes. All five are still made by Ístex: Fjallalopi light moorit (3001), mustard (3041), ginger (3042), marron (3060) and moss (3031). Our shop calls 3041 mustard yellow and 3060 maroon, so go by the colour numbers.
Which size should I knit?
Seven sizes, XS to 3XL, with a chest of 87, 94, 102, 109, 116, 124 and 131 cm all the way round; it matches the body’s stitch count at the pattern’s gauge (our check). The body is short — 26 to 35 cm from the hem to the underarm — and the sleeves are 43 to 48 cm. Compare with a sweater that fits well before you choose.
How much yarn do I need?
Fjallalopi in 50 g balls: light moorit (A) 5 (5, 5, 6, 6, 7, 7), and one ball each of mustard (B), ginger (C), marron (D) and moss (E) in every size — 9 (9, 9, 10, 10, 11, 11) balls in all.
Where do the colours go?
In the yoke, from a 70-round chart, and in a band above each cuff, from a smaller 24-round chart (XS and S leave out two rounds). The body is plain light moorit with 9 rounds of rib at the hem. Each cuff starts with 3 rounds of rib in light moorit and 6 in moss, and the neckband is moss rib with 3 rounds of light moorit at the top. Most rounds use two colours; three rounds in the diamond band use three — light moorit, mustard and moss.
Is anything unclear in the pattern?
Two small misprints. At round 67 the yoke chart gives 130 stitches for 3XL; it is 150 (25 repeats of 6 stitches — our check). In the sleeve instructions “8 6” means 86. The materials list leaves out stitch holders and a tapestry needle.
Is everything in the photos part of the pattern?
The sweater is. The white blouse with the round collar under it and the long denim skirt are not. The PDF has one photo, on the cover; our close view of the yoke is not in the PDF.
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; a page with the sizes, materials, gauge, notes, all the instructions and the sleeve chart; a page with the yoke chart and the colour key; and Ístex’s back cover.
