{"product_id":"marbendill-black-yoke-sweater-knitting-pattern","title":"Marbendill — Black Yoke Sweater Knitting Pattern","description":"\u003cp\u003eMarbendill — a merman, a being that lives in the sea; “a colorful loner”, as the pattern puts it. Védís Jónsdóttir’s round-yoke sweater from Ístex’s Lopi 43 is knitted with one strand of Plötulopi and one of Einband held together: black for the ground, and ash Plötulopi with sky blue, lime, crimson or orange Einband for the pattern. Every pattern stitch is purled, so the colours sit as purl bumps on the smooth black knitting. The yoke has bands of all four colours around large black diamond shapes, with a small check band above each cuff. Sizes XS to 2XL, each with a shorter and a longer body and sleeve. All seven colours are 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\u003eSizes XS, S, M, L, XL and 2XL, each with a shorter and a longer body and sleeve\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTwo charts — the sleeve band and the yoke — with a colour key\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eYarn and needles are not included.

The body is cast on on the 4.5 mm circular, worked in 3 cm of K1, P1 rib and then plain on 5.5 mm, with no shaping, to 35 (36, 37, 38, 39, 40) cm for the shorter length or 40 (41, 42, 43, 44, 45) cm for the longer. The sleeves start with 3 cm of rib on 4.5 mm double-pointed needles, then a 10-round check band from chart 1 on 5.5 mm, and are increased — evenly in the first chart round, by 1 stitch in the first round after the chart, then at the underarm — to 55 (57, 61, 63, 65, 67) stitches. Body and sleeves are joined for the round yoke: a 48-round chart with seven decrease rounds, from 210 (220, 230, 240, 250, 260) stitches to 63 (66, 69, 72, 75, 78); the smaller sizes leave out marked rounds. In both charts every coloured stitch is purled. The neckband is K1, P1 rib on 4.5 mm, raised at the back with three pairs of short rows (wrap and turn), worked until it measures 4 cm at the front and bound off loosely. The underarms are grafted.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eDesign: Védís Jónsdóttir — pattern from Lopi No. 43 (no. 1), Ístex.\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Ístex","offers":[{"title":"English","offer_id":67601460166709,"sku":"PAT-EN-MARBENDILL","price":8.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1662\/1057\/files\/L43_01_Marbendill_741f4b7b-12fd-45d0-b5f1-7e3aed1889b1.jpg?v=1791011957","url":"https:\/\/icelandicstore.is\/products\/marbendill-black-yoke-sweater-knitting-pattern","provider":"The Icelandic Store","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
