It is green heather, with a yoke of black and white zigzag bands and a row of small white diamonds, the same zigzag border above the ribbed hem and cuffs, and a neckband folded to the outside so its cast-off edge shows. One colour version, in four sizes by the child’s height, from 122 to 152 cm. Green heather (9737), the main colour, is no longer made; the black (0059) and the white (0051) still are.\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\u003eFour sizes, to fit 122, 134, 140 and 152 cm tall\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTwo charts — the border above the hem and cuffs, and the yoke\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eYarn and needles are not included.

The body is cast on with 96 (102, 108, 112) stitches in green heather on the 4.5 mm circular and ribbed K1, P1 for 5 (5, 5, 6) cm, increasing to 108 (114, 120, 126) stitches on the last round; on 6 mm comes a 7-round zigzag border in black and white (6 rounds in the two smaller sizes), then plain green heather to 28 (30, 33, 36) cm. The sleeves start the same way on 4.5 mm double-pointed needles, get the same border on 6 mm double-pointed needles and are increased to 46 (48, 50, 52) stitches. Body and sleeves are joined for the round yoke — 168 (174, 186, 198) stitches, with 8 or 9 stitches at each underarm left on holders — and knitted from a 35-round chart of zigzag bands and a row of small white diamonds, in black and white, with four decrease rounds, down to 56 (58, 62, 66) stitches; the smaller sizes skip a few marked rounds, and the top of the yoke moves onto the double-pointed needles. The neckband is 7 (7, 8, 8) cm of K1, P1 rib on 4.5 mm, cast off loosely, folded in half to the outside and sewn down loosely so the cast-off edge shows. The underarm stitches are grafted.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eDesign: Guðný Pálsdóttir — pattern from Lopi No. 18 (no. 29), Ístex.\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Ístex","offers":[{"title":"English","offer_id":67601202970677,"sku":"PAT-EN-L18-29","price":8.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1662\/1057\/files\/lopi18-29-1_41632e60-8eba-42b3-b776-146082d05489.jpg?v=1790999071","url":"https:\/\/icelandicstore.is\/products\/lopi-18-no-29-childrens-green-yoke-sweater-knitting-pattern","provider":"The Icelandic Store","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
