On 4.5 mm the colourwork chart — light beige and acorn zigzags, white crosses on a black band — decreases in four steps to 64 stitches, with an eyelet round for the ribbon near the top. The work is then turned and the white collar is knitted in eyelet lace, increased to 72 stitches, with a second eyelet round near the top, and cast off very loosely. The short garter-stitch opening at the start is sewn together.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eDesign: Védís Jónsdóttir — pattern from Lopi No. 26 (no. 11), Ístex.\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Ístex","offers":[{"title":"Without needles","offer_id":67599134588981,"sku":"KIT-EN-RJUPA","price":42.9,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"With needles","offer_id":67599146876981,"sku":"KIT-EN-RJUPA-NDL","price":78.9,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1662\/1057\/files\/lopi26-rjupa-1_410cc1d0-483d-4424-a54f-77dec0dcdbda.jpg?v=1790949163","url":"https:\/\/icelandicstore.is\/products\/rjupa-lace-colourwork-collar-knitting-kit","provider":"The Icelandic Store","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
