Why you'll love it

  • A sparkNeisti means spark — in the pattern’s words, the spark that kindles great ideas and good deeds.
  • Borders to matchThe black and milkyway pattern of the yoke repeats as a border above the hem and cuffs.
  • A soft, double neckbandThe neckband is knitted long and folded in half to the inside, so it sits smooth against the neck.
  • Or the white oneThe shorter white version with a seven-colour yoke is a kit of its own — or swap any colour here in the colour picker at no charge.

Good to know

Neisti — your questions, answered

Which size should I knit?
Four ages — 8, 10, 12 and 14 years — with a chest of 80, 84, 89 and 93 cm all round and a body of 31 to 40 cm to the underarm.
Will I have yarn left over?
The kit holds the amount for 14 years: 7 balls of brick heather and 2 each of black and milkyway. Age 8 uses 5 brick and 1 each of black and milkyway; ages 10 and 12 use 5 and 6 brick with 2 of each of the others.
What is light rib?
The pattern’s edge stitch: one round of knit 1, purl 1, then one round of knit, repeated. The body and sleeves start with 5 rounds of it.
What is the difference between the red and white Neisti?
The red one is full length with patterned borders; the white one is a shorter body (24 to 30 cm to the underarm) with deep 1×1 rib and a seven-colour yoke. Same ages and needles.
What does the kit with needles include?
4.5 mm (US 7) circular needles in 40 and 60 cm, 3.5 mm (US 4) circular needles in 40 and 60 cm, and 3.5 mm and 4.5 mm double-pointed needles — ADDI, the sizes the pattern names.
