The hem and cuffs are 6 (6, 6, 7, 7) cm of K1, P1 rib in A on 4.5 mm. On 6 mm comes an 11-round border from chart 1 in all three colours, then body and sleeves go on in M. The sleeves are increased at the underarm. Body and sleeves are joined for the round yoke: a 43-round chart in all three colours with five decrease rounds, from 200 (208, 216, 232, 240) stitches to 75 (78, 81, 87, 90); the smaller sizes leave out marked rounds. In sizes S and M the border does not fit the sleeve stitches — the pattern says so itself. The neckband is 8 cm of K1, P1 rib in A on 4.5 mm double-pointed needles, folded in half to the inside and sewn down, and the underarm stitches are grafted.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eDesign: Astrid Ellingsen — pattern from Lopi No. 12 (no. 7), Ístex.\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Ístex","offers":[{"title":"English","offer_id":67600994566197,"sku":"PAT-EN-L12-07","price":8.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1662\/1057\/files\/lopi12-07-cover-1_36fd3f21-92e3-40f9-87d5-54ad31537e48.jpg?v=1790994797","url":"https:\/\/icelandicstore.is\/products\/lopi-12-no-7-round-yoke-sweater-knitting-pattern","provider":"The Icelandic Store","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
