---------------------------------------------------------- EXPLANATION FOR THE PATTERN: ---------------------------------------------------------- GARTER STITCH (back and forth): Knit all rows. 1 ridge vertically = knit 2 rows. PATTERN: See diagrams A.1 to A.7. Diagrams show all rows in pattern seen from the right side. DECREASE TIP-1 (applies to V-neck): Decrease inside the outermost 16 stitches mid front, i.e. inside A.3 + band. All decreases are done from the right side! DECREASE AS FOLLOWS AFTER 16 STITCHES: Slip 1 stitch knitwise, knit 1, pass slipped stitch over stitch worked. DECREASE AS FOLLOWS BEFORE 16 STITCHES: Work until 2 stitches remain before the 16 stitches, and knit these 2 stitches together. DECREASE TIP-2 (applies to armholes): All decreases are done from the right side! Decrease 1 stitch towards the armholes while at the same time plaiting the stitches as follows: DECREASE 1 STITCH AT BEGINNING OF ROW: Work the first 2 stitches as before, slip 2 stitches on cable needle behind piece, knit 1, knit the 2 stitches from cable needle twisted together (= 1 stitch decreased). DECREASE 1 STITCH AT END OF ROW: Work until 5 stitches remain on needle, slip 1 stitch on cable needle in front of piece, knit 2 together, knit 1 from cable needle (= 1 stitch decreased), knit the last 2 stitches. BUTTONHOLES: Decrease for buttonholes on right band. Knit the first 3 stitches, make 1 yarn over. On next row (wrong side) knit the stitch before yarn over together with yarn over to make a hole. Decrease for buttonholes when piece measures: S: 5, 11, 17 and 23 cm = 2", 4⅜", 6¾" and 9" M: 6, 12, 18 and 24 cm = 2⅜", 4¾", 7" and 9½" L: 5, 12, 19 and 25 cm = 2", 4¾", 7½" and 9¾" XL: 6, 13, 20 and 26 cm = 2⅜", 5⅛", 8" and 10¼" XXL: 6, 13, 20 and 27 cm = 2⅜", 5⅛", 8" and 10⅝" XXXL: 6, 13, 21 and 28 cm = 2⅜", 5⅛", 8¼" and 11" ---------------------------------------------------------- START THE PIECE HERE: ---------------------------------------------------------- JACKET - SHORT OVERVIEW OF THE PIECE: Body is worked back and forth on circular needle from mid front, bottom up. Bind off for armholes. Then finish back piece and front pieces back and forth on circular needle separately until finished measurements.

Sew the piece together as explained in pattern. BODY: Cast on 278-302-326-353-389-422 stitches on circular needle size 2.5 MM = US 1.5 with DROPS Safran. Purl 1 row from wrong side. Work next row as follows from right side: 6 band stitches in GARTER STITCH – read explanation above, A.1 , work A.2 until 18 stitches remain on needle, work first stitch in A.2, work A.1, 6 band stitches in garter stitch. Continue pattern as follows (only the first 4 rows in A.1 are repeated vertically). When piece measures 5 cm = 2", work next row from right side as follows: 6 band stitches in garter stitch, work next row in A.1 over the stitches in A.1, work in stockinette stitch until 17 stitches remain on needle decreasing at the same time 53-59-63-66-74-79 stitches evenly over these stitches, work next row in A.1 over the stitches in A.1 and 6 band stitches in garter stitch = 223-241-261-285-313-341 stitches on needle.

Work next row from wrong side with garter stitch over garter stitch, knit over knit and purl over purl Insert 1 marker thread 59-63-68-74-81-88 stitches in from each side (105-115-125-137-151-165 stitches between marker threads on back piece).

This is done to avoid the ridge edge from bending, when decrease for V-neck begins. On next row from right side, decrease 1 stitch for V-neck - read DECREASE TIP-1. Decrease for V-neck every other row 15-13-14-14-15-16 times in total, and then every 6th row 5-6-6-6-6-6 times in total. NOTE!
