Blómey is a digital knitting pattern from Ístex for an Icelandic children's cardigan with a zipper and colorful yoke. The pattern is knitted in Álafosslopi and is suitable for children aged 6–14 years.
The cardigan is knitted in the round with steek stitches in the front, before being cut open and a zipper sewn in. The colorful yoke gives the cardigan a playful look, while the thick Icelandic wool makes it warm and durable.
