Two children in front of Icelandic horses. The boy on the right wears the Lopi 12 no. 27 sweater — light grey ash heather with a white and black heather yoke: a scalloped white band, small dark diamonds and white stems at the neck, with a matching border above the hem and cuffs — and the plain grey rolled-brim hat from the same leaflet, in the pattern’s own colours. His dark trousers are not part of the pattern; the child on the left wears Lopi 12 no. 29, a different pattern, with jeans and a neck scarf

Good to know

Lopi 12 No. 27 — your questions, answered

Can I still buy the colours in the photo?
Yes. All three are still made by Ístex: 0056 (M, the light grey body and the hat), 0051 (A, white) and 0005 (B, black heather). The leaflet prints only the colour numbers; our shop calls them ash heather, white and black heather, so go by the numbers.
Which size should I knit?
Five sizes by the child’s height — 110, 122, 134, 140 and 152 cm — with a chest of 78, 83, 88, 92 and 97 cm, a length of 42 to 58 cm to the centre front neck and sleeves of 25 to 38 cm to the underarm. The chest matches the body’s stitch count at the pattern’s gauge (our check). The hat comes in two sizes, 110/122 and 134/140; the pattern gives no hat for 152 cm.
How much yarn do I need?
For the sweater, Álafosslopi in 100 g balls: M (0056) 3 (4, 4, 5, 5), A (0051) 1 (1, 1, 1, 2) and B (0005) 1 in every size — 5 balls for 110 cm, 6 for 122 and 134 cm, 7 for 140 cm and 8 for 152 cm.
How much yarn does the hat take?
The pattern does not say clearly. The hat’s own materials list repeats the sweater’s five amounts, “M 0056 3-4-4-5-5”, for a hat with two sizes — a misprint. The hat is 60 (63) stitches on 6 mm needles, knitted 20 (21) cm before the top is shaped, so one 100 g ball of 0056 should be enough (our estimate).
Is anything unclear in the pattern?
A few things. In sizes 134, 140 and 152 the pattern itself says chart 1 “does not work out” on the sleeves: the 38 (38, 40) stitches do not divide by the 6-stitch border, so it breaks where the round starts, under the arm. In sizes 110 and 140 each sleeve puts 9 stitches on the underarm holder but the body only 8, so the graft is 9 to 8 — knit two of the sleeve stitches together as you graft (our suggestion). In sizes 122, 134 and 140 the front is 2 stitches narrower than the back at the yoke join; the totals are right. And the hat’s yarn amount is a misprint, as above.
Is everything in the photo part of the pattern?
The boy’s grey sweater and his grey hat are; his dark trousers are not. The child on the left wears Lopi 12 no. 29, a different pattern, with jeans and a neck scarf.
How do I get the pattern?
The PDF is emailed to you right after purchase. Nothing is posted. It is in English and has 4 pages: the cover photo, a page with the sweater’s materials, sizes, instructions, border chart and key, a page with the yoke chart and the hat — its photo, materials and instructions — and Ístex’s back cover.
