The hem and cuffs start with 2 cm of K1, P1 rib in two strands of dark brown; the rib then goes on to 5 cm with one strand of dark brown and one of forest green — the marl that runs through the whole sweater. Each sleeve has an 11-round zigzag band in dark amber and dark brown on the upper arm. Body and sleeves are joined, and the plain marled yoke is shaped with eight decreases every other round — at the four joins and on each side of a narrow strip along the top of each sleeve. Short rows raise the back of the neck, and the neckband is 3 cm of K1, P1 rib in dark brown. The underarm stitches are grafted.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eDesign: Védís Jónsdóttir — pattern from Lopi No. 26 (no. 18), Ístex.\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Ístex","offers":[{"title":"Without needles","offer_id":67600491905077,"sku":"KIT-EN-TAT","price":76.9,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"With needles","offer_id":67600506552373,"sku":"KIT-EN-TAT-NDL","price":141.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1662\/1057\/files\/lopi26-tat-1_11724974-e7e2-4b2e-9491-97dd7a34a70a.jpg?v=1790981622","url":"https:\/\/icelandicstore.is\/products\/tat-childrens-marled-plotulopi-sweater-knitting-kit","provider":"The Icelandic Store","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
