Guðrún Ragna Sigurjónsdóttir’s pullover for children from Ístex’s Lopi 30 is knitted in Léttlopi from the neck down: a garter-stitch yoke worked back and forth, with raglan lines of yarn overs and an opening at the back closed with three buttons, then a stocking-stitch body and sleeves knitted in the round, with garter ridges at the hem and cuffs. The pattern has two versions — one colour, barley, and two-tone, dark grey with the yoke striped in light grey — in sizes 2 to 8 years. All three colours are still made by Ístex.\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 versions — one colour (barley) and two-tone (dark grey and light grey)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFour sizes — 2, 4, 6 and 8 years\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eYarn and needles are not included.

The yoke is cast on with 56 (59, 60, 64) stitches on 4.5 mm and knitted back and forth in garter stitch, with an opening at the centre back; on every right-side row a yarn over either side of a purled stitch at the four raglan lines adds 8 stitches, 16 (17, 18, 18) times, to 184 (195, 204, 208). In the two-tone version the yoke is striped: after 3 rows of dark grey, 2 rows of light grey, 2 rows of dark grey and so on. The sleeve stitches go on waste yarn, stitches are cast on at the underarms and 3 more at the back, and the body is joined and knitted in the round in stocking stitch to 21 (23, 27, 33) cm from the underarm, then 5 rounds on 3.5 mm — purl, knit, purl, knit, purl — and bound off. The sleeves are picked up with 4 (4, 6, 6) more stitches at the underarm, knitted in the round on 4.5 mm, decreased every 6th round and finished with the same garter-ridge cuff on 3.5 mm. Last, garter borders are picked up along both sides of the back opening on 3.5 mm, one with three buttonholes; it is laid over the other and sewn down at the bottom.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eDesign: Guðrún Ragna Sigurjónsdóttir — pattern from Lopi No. 30 (no. 6), Ístex.\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Ístex","offers":[{"title":"English","offer_id":67601365565493,"sku":"PAT-EN-KJARR","price":8.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1662\/1057\/files\/lopi30-kjarr-1_b125693d-4253-4ea0-abee-602e4cb68a0e.jpg?v=1791006856","url":"https:\/\/icelandicstore.is\/products\/kjarr-childrens-garter-yoke-sweater-knitting-pattern","provider":"The Icelandic Store","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
