What's in the kit
JÁ! — yes! Positivity and optimism, love and care: in the pattern’s words, a sweater for happy moments and daydreaming.

This is the short version: a cropped white body with a fjord blue yoke.

How it is knitted
Body and sleeves are knitted in the round from the lower edge up to the underarms, joined, and the yoke is knitted in the round from a chart whose first rounds spell YES or JÁ!. In the short version the hems, cuffs and neckband are folded to the inside along a purl round, and the sleeves are straight — cast on at full width, with no increases.
Design: Védís Jónsdóttir — pattern from Lopi No. 38 (no. 1), Ístex.
