Védís Jónsdóttir’s round-yoke sweater from Ístex’s Lopi 44 is knitted in fine Fjallalopi on 3.5 mm needles: a light moorit body with a yoke of mustard and ginger zigzags, marron, moss and a band of light diamonds, and the same colours in a band above each cuff. The body is short — 26 to 35 cm from the hem to the underarm; in the photo it ends at the waist. One colour version, in seven sizes, XS to 3XL. All five colours are still made.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat you get\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe knitting pattern in English (PDF), emailed right after purchase — nothing is posted\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSeven sizes — XS, S, M, L, XL, 2XL and 3XL\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTwo charts — the sleeve band and the yoke — with a colour key\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eYarn and needles are not included.

Body and sleeves are joined for the round yoke: a 70-round chart with six decrease rounds, from 304 (320, 336, 352, 368, 384, 400) stitches to 95 (100, 105, 110, 115, 120, 125); the smaller sizes leave out marked rounds.
