Guðrún Ragna Sigurjónsdóttir’s hood from Ístex’s Lopi 32, knitted back and forth in one piece from two balls of Léttlopi on a 5.5 mm needle, with moss-stitch edges and a moss-stitch panel up the middle and over the crown. Crocheted bands along the lower front edges close it with four buttons under the chin; the photos show it worn up as a hood and down round the neck as a collar. One size for women and children, in two colours: light beige heather or spring green heather. Both 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\u003eTwo colours — light beige heather and spring green heather\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOne size, for women and children\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eYarn and needles are not included.

After 8 more rows, 18 stitches are decreased beside the edge borders — 3 at each side on every other row, three times — leaving 76. At 27 cm the stitches either side of the middle panel are decreased on every other row, six times; then the panel is worked back and forth on its own, taking in one stitch from the sides at the end of every row — the way a sock heel is turned — until only its 16 stitches remain, and they are bound off. With the crochet hook, bands of single crochet are worked up the lower 17.5 cm of both front edges, one with four buttonholes, and the buttons are sewn on the other.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eDesign: Guðrún Ragna Sigurjónsdóttir — pattern from Lopi No. 32 (no. 12), Ístex.\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Ístex","offers":[{"title":"English","offer_id":67601362583605,"sku":"PAT-EN-HETTA","price":8.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1662\/1057\/files\/lopi32-hetta-2_6a5e5cee-94f7-4a69-a245-7734fbef05d1.jpg?v=1791006618","url":"https:\/\/icelandicstore.is\/products\/hetta-buttoned-hood-knitting-pattern","provider":"The Icelandic Store","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
