To change colour, the old and the new yarn are knitted together for about 10 stitches, so there are no ends to weave in. A colour order of 29 stripes is worked twice. The Einband colours are always knitted “2-ply”. There is no bind-off: by our reading, the tube is folded in half lengthwise, right side out, and the live stitches are grafted to the cast-on edge with colour F, sun yellow, giving a double-layer ring.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eDesign: Guðrún Ragna Sigurjónsdóttir — pattern from Lopi No. 31 (no. 6), Ístex.\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Ístex","offers":[{"title":"English","offer_id":67601209884725,"sku":"PAT-EN-VINDBELGUR","price":8.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1662\/1057\/files\/lopi31-vindbelgur-1_0bebd7d4-64e4-47c3-b35f-911c88778a21.jpg?v=1791005560","url":"https:\/\/icelandicstore.is\/products\/vindbelgur-ten-colour-striped-cowl-knitting-pattern","provider":"The Icelandic Store","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
