{"product_id":"lopi-18-no-2-dark-green-yoke-sweater-knitting-kit","title":"Lopi 18 No. 2 — Dark Green Yoke Sweater Knitting Kit","description":"\u003cp\u003eVédís Jónsdóttir’s round-yoke sweater from Ístex’s Lopi 18 (Design 2), for women and men: a very dark green Álafosslopi body and a yoke of stacked zigzag bands — big light green spikes, a slate band, a rust band, a khaki zigzag, a dark brown band and a light grey band near the neck — with striped ribs at the hem and cuffs and a striped, folded neckband. The pattern gives sleeve lengths for women and for men. Nine of the pattern’s ten colours are no longer made, so this kit has replacements: 9966 cypress green heather for the loden green (9239), 9965 chartreuse green heather for the golden green (9240) and the straw (9720), 1230 highland green for the field (9719) and the putty (9241), 0058 dark grey heather for the pond heather (9736), 0867 chocolate heather for the dark sienna (9118), 9971 amber heather for the rust (9392) and 0057 grey heather for the gray fleck (0042). Only the chocolate (0867) is the pattern’s own. The yoke keeps its order of light and dark bands, but it will look different from the photo in places — most of all the rust band, which will be more orange, and the light grey band, which loses its red and blue 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 9966 Cypress Green Heather (in place of 9239 loden green) — 5 (6 6 7 8)\u003cbr\u003e\nA + F 9965 Chartreuse Green Heather (in place of 9240 golden green and 9720 straw) — 2 (2 2 2 2)\u003cbr\u003e\nB + G 1230 Highland Green (in place of 9719 field and 9241 putty) — 2 (2 2 2 2)\u003cbr\u003e\nC 0058 Dark Grey Heather (in place of 9736 pond heather) — 1 (1 1 1 1)\u003cbr\u003e\nD + H 0867 Chocolate Heather (in place of 9118 dark sienna for D; H is the pattern’s own 0867) — 2 (2 2 2 2)\u003cbr\u003e\nE 9971 Amber Heather (in place of 9392 rust) — 1 (1 1 1 1)\u003cbr\u003e\nI 0057 Grey Heather (in place of 0042 gray fleck) — 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\u003e102 cm\u003cbr\u003e40¼″\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e106 cm\u003cbr\u003e41¾″\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e111 cm\u003cbr\u003e43¾″\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e115 cm\u003cbr\u003e45¼″\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e120 cm\u003cbr\u003e47¼″\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\u003eStitch holders (or waste yarn) for the underarm stitches, and a tapestry needle for grafting them and sewing down the neckband.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow it is knitted\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eKnitted in the round from the bottom up.
