Pattern No. 590205

Eyjar is an Icelandic sweater from Ístex with a three-colour patterned yoke. Its name means islands, drawing inspiration from snow and cold cliffs. The sweater features deep ribbed edges and a high neckband.

The sweater is knitted from the bottom up with two strands of Plötulopi held together. The front and back hem ribbing are worked separately in rows before joining the body in the round, creating side openings. The body and sleeves are then joined to work the round yoke.

Design Védís Jónsdóttir
