{"product_id":"u-teal-sleeveless-cabled-tunic-knitting-kit","title":"U — Teal Sleeveless Cabled Tunic Knitting Kit","description":"\u003cp\u003eVédís Jónsdóttir’s U from Ístex’s Lopi 26 — the pattern’s name is just the letter U. It is a long, sleeveless tunic in Álafosslopi, with one braided cable up the centre front and a deep K2, P2 rib collar that falls into a cowl. The pattern’s only colour, pond heather (9736), is no longer made; this kit has 9967 teal heather in its place, so the whole tunic is teal heather — a little greener than the photo.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIncluded\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIcelandic Álafosslopi wool yarn — yarn for the largest size is included, so every size is covered\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eKnitting pattern in English (PDF) — emailed right after purchase\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eADDI knitting needles — only if you choose the kit with needles\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eÁlafosslopi — 100 g balls\u003c\/strong\u003e · sizes S (M L XL)\u003cbr\u003e\nA 9967 Teal Heather (in place of 9736 pond heather) — 5 (6 6 7)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSizes\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ctable\u003e\n\u003cthead\u003e\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003e\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eS\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eM\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eL\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eXL\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\u003c\/thead\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eChest\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e86 cm\u003cbr\u003e33¾″\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e92 cm\u003cbr\u003e36¼″\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e98 cm\u003cbr\u003e38½″\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e104 cm\u003cbr\u003e41″\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eLength\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e78 cm\u003cbr\u003e30¾″\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e79 cm\u003cbr\u003e31″\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e81 cm\u003cbr\u003e32″\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e82 cm\u003cbr\u003e32¼″\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eGauge\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e13 sts × 18 rows = 10 cm (4″) in stocking stitch on 6 mm needles.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eNeedles used in the pattern\u003c\/strong\u003e (included when you choose the kit with needles)\u003cbr\u003e6 mm (US 10) circular needles, 60 and 80 cm\u003cbr\u003e4.5 mm (US 7) circular needle, 40 cm, for the armhole bands\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eNot included\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eA cable needle (named in the pattern), 2 stitch markers, stitch holders (or scrap yarn) for the neck, underarm and shoulder stitches, and a tapestry needle.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow it is knitted\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eKnitted in the round from the hem: 6 cm of K2, P2 rib, then stocking stitch with one braided cable up the centre front between purl stitches. Two stitches are decreased at each side, twice, so the tunic is a little wider at the hem than at the chest. Where the cable ends, the front is split at the centre for a deep neck opening and the work goes on back and forth; the armholes are shaped and the shoulders joined. The collar is picked up round the neck and knitted in K2, P2 rib for 17 cm, so it falls into a cowl, and the armholes get narrow K1, P1 bands on 4.5 mm.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eDesign: Védís Jónsdóttir — pattern from Lopi No. 26 (no. 2), Ístex.\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Ístex","offers":[{"title":"Without needles","offer_id":67600486563893,"sku":"KIT-EN-U-TUNIC","price":87.9,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"With needles","offer_id":67600505667637,"sku":"KIT-EN-U-TUNIC-NDL","price":127.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1662\/1057\/files\/lopi26-u-1_dbbfabf4-d9dc-4b4c-81b7-eb03bb8501cb.jpg?v=1790982073","url":"https:\/\/icelandicstore.is\/products\/u-teal-sleeveless-cabled-tunic-knitting-kit","provider":"The Icelandic Store","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
