The pattern gives sleeve lengths and button sides for women and for men. The pattern’s blue (9390) is no longer made; this kit has 1234 blue tweed in its place. The pattern prints only the code — in the photo it is a periwinkle blue. Blue tweed is darker, with small white flecks.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIncluded\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIcelandic Álafosslopi wool yarn — yarn for the largest size is included, so every size is covered\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eKnitting pattern in English (PDF) — emailed right after purchase\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eADDI knitting needles — only if you choose the kit with needles\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eÁlafosslopi — 100 g balls\u003c\/strong\u003e · sizes XS (S M L XL)\u003cbr\u003e\nM 0709 Midnight Blue — 7 (7 8 8 9)\u003cbr\u003e\nA 1234 Blue Tweed (in place of 9390) — 2 (2 2 2 2)\u003cbr\u003e\nB 0051 White — 1 (1 1 1 1)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSizes\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ctable\u003e\n\u003cthead\u003e\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003e\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eXS\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eS\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eM\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eL\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eXL\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\u003c\/thead\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eChest\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e105 cm\u003cbr\u003e41¼″\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e109 cm\u003cbr\u003e43″\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e114 cm\u003cbr\u003e45″\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e118 cm\u003cbr\u003e46½″\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e123 cm\u003cbr\u003e48½″\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eLength to centre front neck\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e62 cm\u003cbr\u003e24½″\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e65 cm\u003cbr\u003e25½″\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e68 cm\u003cbr\u003e26¾″\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e70 cm\u003cbr\u003e27½″\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e72 cm\u003cbr\u003e28¼″\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eSleeve to underarm, women\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e41 cm\u003cbr\u003e16¼″\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e43 cm\u003cbr\u003e17″\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e43 cm\u003cbr\u003e17″\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e45 cm\u003cbr\u003e17¾″\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e45 cm\u003cbr\u003e17¾″\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eSleeve to underarm, men\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e46 cm\u003cbr\u003e18″\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e48 cm\u003cbr\u003e19″\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e48 cm\u003cbr\u003e19″\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e50 cm\u003cbr\u003e19¾″\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e50 cm\u003cbr\u003e19¾″\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eGauge\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e13 sts × 18 rows = 10 cm (4″) in stocking stitch on 6 mm needles.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eNeedles used in the pattern\u003c\/strong\u003e (included when you choose the kit with needles)\u003cbr\u003e4.5 mm (US 7) circular needle, 80 cm\u003cbr\u003e6 mm (US 10) circular needles, 40 and 80 cm\u003cbr\u003e4.5 mm double-pointed needles — the kit with needles also has 6 mm double-pointed needles for the sleeves\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eNot included\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e7 buttons (6 for sizes XS and S; the pattern gives no size), a sewing machine and thread for the steek, and stitch holders.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow it is knitted\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe welt is K1, P1 rib knitted back and forth on 4.5 mm with the first buttonhole, and 8 stitches at each front edge wait on holders for the bands. The body is then knitted in the round on 6 mm, with a purl stitch at each side of the centre front: an 11-round border of white zigzags and blue diamonds, then midnight blue to the underarm. The sleeves are knitted in the round from a ribbed cuff, with the same border. Body and sleeves are joined for the round yoke — a 43-round chart of white zigzags, blue diamonds and long blue shapes on midnight blue, with four decrease rounds. Two rows of machine stitching go into each purl stitch up the front, and the front is cut open between them. The ribbed front bands are knitted from the held stitches with a stocking-stitch facing that folds over the cut edge, and sewn on. The folded neckband carries the top buttonhole.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eDesign: Guðríður Aðalsteinsdóttir — pattern from Lopi No. 12 (no. 15), Ístex.\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Ístex","offers":[{"title":"Without needles","offer_id":67600589488181,"sku":"KIT-EN-L12-15","price":135.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"With needles","offer_id":67600606920757,"sku":"KIT-EN-L12-15-NDL","price":200.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1662\/1057\/files\/lopi12-15-1_4690d212-3636-4d79-ad6b-a0bd083446d6.jpg?v=1790975829","url":"https:\/\/icelandicstore.is\/products\/lopi-12-no-15-navy-yoke-cardigan-knitting-kit","provider":"The Icelandic Store","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
