Each of the three pattern colours is two strands of thinner Léttlopi, in two different colours, held together and knitted as one — that gives the two-tone, marled look. Six of the pattern’s colours are no longer made: this kit has 9962 ruby red heather in place of the fire tweed (9738), the main colour, and in the Léttlopi 1414 violet heather for the iris (9440), 1406 spring green heather for both the grass (9444) and the leaf (9441), 1704 apricot for the pumpkin (9436) and 1703 mimosa for the goldenrod (9435); the navy (9420) is the pattern’s own. The green becomes one solid spring green, and the orange will be deeper than in the photo.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIncluded\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIcelandic Álafosslopi and Léttlopi wool yarn — yarn for the largest size is included, so every size is covered; the Léttlopi is knitted two strands together — A with B, C with D, E with F\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 · to fit 110 (122 134 140 152) cm tall\u003cbr\u003e\nM 9962 Ruby Red Heather (in place of 9738 fire tweed) — 3 (4 4 5 5)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eLéttlopi — 50 g balls\u003c\/strong\u003e · to fit 110 (122 134 140 152) cm tall\u003cbr\u003e\nA 9420 Navy Blue — 1 (1 1 1 1)\u003cbr\u003e\nB 1414 Violet Heather (in place of 9440 iris) — 1 (1 1 1 1)\u003cbr\u003e\nC + D 1406 Spring Green Heather (in place of 9444 grass and 9441 leaf) — 2 (2 2 2 2)\u003cbr\u003e\nE 1704 Apricot (in place of 9436 pumpkin) — 1 (1 1 1 1)\u003cbr\u003e\nF 1703 Mimosa (in place of 9435 goldenrod) — 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\u003e110\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003cth\u003e122\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003cth\u003e134\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003cth\u003e140\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003cth\u003e152\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\u003c\/thead\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eTo fit height\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e110 cm\u003cbr\u003e43¼″\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e122 cm\u003cbr\u003e48″\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e134 cm\u003cbr\u003e52¾″\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e140 cm\u003cbr\u003e55″\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e152 cm\u003cbr\u003e59¾″\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eChest\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e78 cm\u003cbr\u003e30¾″\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e83 cm\u003cbr\u003e32¾″\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e88 cm\u003cbr\u003e34¾″\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e92 cm\u003cbr\u003e36¼″\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e97 cm\u003cbr\u003e38¼″\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eLength to centre front neck\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e42 cm\u003cbr\u003e16½″\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e46 cm\u003cbr\u003e18″\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e50 cm\u003cbr\u003e19¾″\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e54 cm\u003cbr\u003e21¼″\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e58 cm\u003cbr\u003e22¾″\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eSleeve length to underarm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e25 cm\u003cbr\u003e9¾″\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e29 cm\u003cbr\u003e11½″\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e33 cm\u003cbr\u003e13″\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e35 cm\u003cbr\u003e13¾″\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e38 cm\u003cbr\u003e15″\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) and 6 mm (US 10) circular needles, 60 cm\u003cbr\u003e4.5 mm and 6 mm double-pointed needles\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eNot included\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eStitch holders (or waste yarn) for the underarm stitches, and a tapestry needle for grafting them and sewing down the neckband.

Each pattern colour is two strands of Léttlopi held together and knitted as one: navy with violet, two strands of spring green, and apricot with mimosa. Body and sleeves are joined for the round yoke — a 35-round chart with four decrease rounds: zigzags and rows of small diamonds on red, ending in navy-violet spikes towards the neck. The smaller sizes skip a few rounds, and the top of the yoke moves onto the double-pointed needles. The neckband is 7 or 8 cm of K1, P1 rib in red 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: Guðrún Sveinsdóttir, adapted by Védís Jónsdóttir — pattern from Lopi No. 18 (no. 14), Ístex.\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Ístex","offers":[{"title":"Without needles","offer_id":67600985489461,"sku":"KIT-EN-L18-14","price":101.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"With needles","offer_id":67600990044213,"sku":"KIT-EN-L18-14-NDL","price":152.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1662\/1057\/files\/lopi18-14-cover-1_b9385aa0-c3ae-4c17-bd54-ccedc2afa85e.jpg?v=1790995635","url":"https:\/\/icelandicstore.is\/products\/lopi-18-no-14-childrens-red-rainbow-yoke-sweater-knitting-kit","provider":"The Icelandic Store","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
