{"product_id":"isar-childrens-yoke-sweater-knitting-pattern","title":"Ísar — Children’s Yoke Sweater Knitting Pattern","description":"\u003cp\u003eÍsar is a children’s round-yoke sweater from Ístex’s Lopi 24 — Védís Jónsdóttir’s new version of an old pattern by Astrid Ellingsen, knitted in Álafosslopi in the round from the bottom up. A band of light zigzags sits above the ribbed hem and above the cuffs, the round yoke has motifs in the main colour on a light ash heather ground, and the polo collar is K1, P1 rib. The pattern has two versions with the same amounts — blue and dark grey — in sizes 110 to 140. Both main colours, jeans blue (9979) and moon grey (9977), are no longer made; ash heather (0054) still is.\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 colour versions — blue and dark grey\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSizes 110, 122, 134 and 140\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTwo charts — the zigzag band and the yoke — with a key for both versions\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eYarn and needles are not included.

The body is cast on with 90 (96, 102, 108) stitches in A on the 4.5 mm circular and worked in K1, P1 rib for 5 (5, 6, 6) cm; on the 6 mm circular comes an 8-round zigzag band from chart 1, then plain stocking stitch in A to 24 (27, 30, 33) cm. The sleeves are cast on with 26 (26, 28, 28) stitches on 4.5 mm double-pointed needles for the same rib, increased to 30 (30, 36, 36) on 6 mm, given the same band, then knitted in A and increased at the underarm every 6th round to 38 (38, 42, 42). Body and sleeves are joined for the round yoke — 138 (144, 150, 156) stitches — and a 31-round chart with four decrease rounds takes it down to 46 (48, 50, 52); sizes 110 and 122 skip four marked rounds and size 134 one. The collar is K1, P1 rib on 4.5 mm double-pointed needles, 6 (6, 7, 7) cm high, cast off loosely — it is not folded. The underarm stitches are grafted.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eBased on old pattern by Astrid Ellingsen.
