One leaflet, two pattern numbers: Design 12 is crimson with a yoke of stacked zigzags in iris, grass and goldenrod — purple, green and yellow — with purple ribs and neckband; Design 13 is white with zigzags in oatmeal, acorn and black sheep and a rib striped in black sheep and acorn. Both have the same instructions, charts and size, with a colour key for each, a narrow border of small points above the rib at the hem and cuffs, and a short opening at the neck that closes with one button. One size, chest 40 cm — for a doll about 18 inches (46 cm) tall, by our estimate from the photos. In Design 12, iris (9440), grass (9444) and goldenrod (9435) are no longer made; Design 13’s colours are all still made.\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\u003eBoth pattern numbers — Design 12 in crimson and Design 13 in white\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOne size, for a doll — chest 40 cm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTwo charts — the border above the rib and the yoke — with a colour key for each design\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eYarn and needles are not included.

The pattern names no doll. The doll in the photos looks like a common 18-inch (46 cm) play doll (our estimate); Ístex’s Rós doll sweater (Lopi 29 no. 5), written for a 46 cm doll, has a 39 cm chest.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eGauge\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e18 sts × 24 rows = 10 cm (4″) in stocking stitch on 5 mm needles.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eNeedles\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e5 mm (US 8) double-pointed needles — for the body, sleeves and yoke\u003cbr\u003e3¾ mm (US 5) double-pointed needles — for the ribs and the neckband\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eYou will also need\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eA 3 mm (US D) crochet hook for the button loop, 1 button (the pattern gives no size) and stitch holders (or waste yarn) for the underarm stitches — all in the pattern’s list — and a tapestry needle for grafting the underarms, tacking down the strands inside the sleeve border and weaving in the ends.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow it is knitted\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eKnitted in the round on double-pointed needles, from the bottom up. The body is cast on with 72 stitches and each sleeve with 18 on 3¾ mm, for 3 rounds of K1, P1 rib — all in A for Design 12; for Design 13 cast on in C and striped 1 round C, 2 rounds B. On 5 mm comes a 3-round border of small points from chart 1, then stocking stitch in M: the body to 11 cm, the sleeves increased to 24 stitches and knitted to 10 cm. Body and sleeves are joined, 96 stitches, for the round yoke: a 12-round chart of zigzags in A, B and C on M, with small columns of A up to the neck and four decrease rounds, down to 32 stitches. The neckband is knitted back and forth on 3¾ mm — 1 knit row and 3 rows of K1, P1 rib in A for Design 12; 1 knit row and 2 rib rows in A, then 1 rib row and the cast-off in C, for Design 13 — so it leaves a short opening, closed with a button and a loop of 8 crocheted chains on the left side. The underarm stitches are grafted, and the loose strands inside the sleeve border are tacked down with M.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eDesign: Védís Jónsdóttir — pattern from Lopi No. 18 (nos. 12 and 13), Ístex.\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Ístex","offers":[{"title":"English","offer_id":67601227874357,"sku":"PAT-EN-L18-12-13","price":8.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1662\/1057\/files\/lopi18-12-cover-1_839b8d6c-7d94-4c5e-a8bc-6659f5bef61c.jpg?v=1791005681","url":"https:\/\/icelandicstore.is\/products\/lopi-18-no-12-13-round-yoke-doll-sweater-knitting-pattern","provider":"The Icelandic Store","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
