There are different terms for crocheting in American and British English. If this pattern includes crochet, click for "crochet terms" here. For this pattern in British English, please click here.
PATTERN:
See diagrams A.1 to A.3.

CROCHET INFO:
On every dc row replace first dc with 3 ch.
On every sc row replace first sc with 1 ch.
Replace first dc at on every dc round with ch 3, finish the round with 1 sl st in 3rd ch from beg of round.
On every sc round, replace first sc with 1 ch and finish round with 1 sl st in 1st ch from beg of round.

INCREASE TIP-1:
Inc 1 dc by working 2 dc in same dc.

INCREASE TIP-2 (applies to sides of body):
Work until 3 dc remain before marker, work 2 dc in next dc (= 1 dc inc), work 1 dc in each of the next 4 dc (marker is in the middle of these sts), work 2 dc in next dc (= 1 dc inc).

RAGLAN:

Insert 1 marker in piece, NOW MEASURE PIECE FROM HERE. Move markers when working, leave the markers in piece.

BODY:
Work 1 dc in every dc, 1 dc in every ch and A.1a as before. There are 88-96-106-116-130-144 dc between markers on back piece. When piece measures 3 cm / 1'' (measured from marker), dec 1 st on each side of each markers in the side (= 4 sts dec) - READ DECREASE TIP! Repeat dec every 4-4-3½-4½-4½-4½ cm / 1½"-1½"-1 1/4"-1 3/4"-1 3/4"-1 3/4" 3-3-4-3-3-4 more times = 156-172-188-212-240-264 dc in total (includes band sts in each side) and A.1a inside 5 band dc in each side of piece. There are 80-88-96-108-122-134 dc on back piece. When piece measures 17-18-19-20-21-22 cm / 6¾''-7''-7½''-8''-8¼''-8¾'' (measured from marker), inc 1 st on each side of each marker (= 4 dc inc) – see INCREASE TIP-2. Repeat inc every 1½ cm / ½" 6-6-7-6-6-7 more times = 184-200-220-240-268-296 dc on row (includes 5 band sts in each side) and A.1a inside 5 band dc in each side of piece. Continue with 1 dc in every dc and A.1a until piece measures 32-33-34-35-36-37 cm / 12½''-13½''-13 3/8''-13¾''-14¼''-14½'' (measured from marker). Piece measures approx. 46-48-50-52-54-56 cm / 18''-19''-19¾''-20½''-21¼''-22'' in total from neck edge. Work 1 edge along the bottom of the jacket as follows: Work * 1 sc in first/next dc, ch 4, skip approx. 1 cm / 3/8'' *, repeat from *-* over dc, work A.1a over A.1a as before. Adjust to finish with 1 sc in last dc. Fasten off.

SLEEVE EDGE:
Sleeve is worked in the round, top down. Beg by working mid under sleeve as follows: Work 1 sc in 5th ch of the 8 ch worked in armhole on body. Work 3 ch (= 1 dc). Then work with 1 dc in each of the next ch 3, A.2a as before, 1 dc in each of the next 38-40-44-50-54-58 dc, A.2a as before, 1 dc in each of the last 4 ch under sleeve, finish with 1 sl st in 3rd ch at beg of round. Work 1 dc in every dc and A.2a until 1 whole repetition of A.2a has been worked. Then work 1 dc in every dc, work A.2b over A.2a = 68-70-74-80-84-88 dc. On next round work 1 dc in every dc AT THE SAME TIME dec 12 dc evenly = 56-58-62-68-72-76 dc. Work 1 dc in every dc until sleeve edge measures approx. 4 cm / 1½''. Work * 1 sc in first/next dc, ch 4, skip approx. 1 cm / 3/8'' *, repeat from *-* around the entire sleeve. Fasten off. Work a sleeve edge around the other sleeve.

NECK EDGE:
Beg mid front. Work * 1 sc in first/next dc, ch 4, skip approx. 1 cm / 3/8'' *, repeat from *-* around the entire neck, make sure to avoid a tight neck edge. Adjust to finish with 1 sc in last dc.

POCKET:
Work 34 ch (includes 1 ch to turn with) on hook size 3.5 mm/E/4 with Safran. Work A.3a 4 times in total in width (NOTE: Work first sc in 2nd ch from hook), finish with first st of A.3a in last ch (so piece is the same in both sides). NOTE: Always work last st as first st in diagram. When A.3a has been worked 1 time vertically, repeat A.3b over A.3a until piece measures 7 cm / 2¾'', adjust so that last row is last row in A.3b, then work A.3c over A.3b. Fasten off. Crochet another pocket.

Knitting tension is what determines the final measurements of your work, and is usually measured per 10 x 10 cm. It is provided like so: number of stitches in width x number of rows in height - eg: 19 stitches x 26 rows = 10 x 10 cm.

The knitting tension is very individual; some people knit/crochet loosely while others work tightly. You adjust the knitting tension with the needle size, which is why the suggested needle size only serve as a guide! You need to adjust this (up or down) to ensure that YOUR knitting tension matches the knitting tension provided in the pattern. If you work with a different knitting tension than provided you will have a different yarn consumption, and your work will have different measurements than what the pattern suggests.

The knitting tension also determines which yarns can replace each other. As long as you achieve the same knitting tension you can replace one yarn with another.

See DROPS lesson: How to measure your tension/gauge

See DROPS video: How to make a gauge tension swatch

The required amount of yarn is provided in grams, eg: 450 g. To calculate how many balls you’ll need you first need to know how many grams are in 1 ball (25g, 50g or 100g). This information is available if you click on the individual yarn quality on our pages. Divide the amount required with the amount of each ball. For example, if each ball is 50g (the most common amount), the calculation will be as follows: 450 / 50 = 9 balls.

The important thing when changing from one yarn to another is that the knitting/crochet tension remains the same. This is so that the measurements of the finished piece will be the same as on the sketch provided. It is easier to achieve the same knitting tension using yarns from the same yarn group. It is also possible to work with multiple strands of a thinner yarn to achieve the knitting tension of a thicker one. Please try our yarn converter. We recommend you to always work a test swatch.

Please NOTE: when changing yarn the garment might have a different look and feel to the garment in the photo, due to individual properties and qualities of each yarn.

See DROPS lesson: Can I use a different yarn than the one mentioned in the pattern?

All our yarns are categorised into yarn groups (from A to F) according to thickness and knitting tension – group A contains the thinnest yarns and group F the thickest. This makes it easier for you to find alternative yarns to our patterns, should you wish to switch yarn. All yarns within the same group have a similar knitting tension and can easily replace each other. However, different yarn qualities have different structures and properties which will give the finished work a unique look and feel.

Click here for an overview of the yarns in each yarn group

At the top of all our patterns you’ll find a link to our yarn converter, which is a helpful tool should you wish to use a different yarn than suggested. By filling in the yarn quality you wish to replace, the amount (in your size) and number of strands, the converter will present good alternative yarns with the same knitting tension. Additionally it will tell you how much you’ll require in the new qualities and whether you’ll need to work with multiple strands. Most skeins are 50g (some are 25g or 100g).

If the pattern is worked with multiple colours, every colour will have to be converted separately. Similarly, if the pattern is worked with several strands of different yarns (for example 1 strand Alpaca and 1 strand Kid-Silk) you will have to find alternatives for each, individually.

Click here to see our yarn converter

Since different yarns have different qualities and textures we have chosen to keep the original yarn in our patterns. However, you can easily find options among our available qualities by using our yarn converter, or simply pick a yarn from the same yarn group.

It is possible that some retailers still have discontinued yarns in stock, or that someone has a few skeins at home that they would like to find patterns for.

The yarn converter will provide both alternative yarn as well as required amount in the new quality.

If you think it's hard to decide what size to make, it can be a good idea to measure a garment you own already and like the size of. Then you can pick the size by comparing those measures with the ones available in the pattern's size chart.

You'll find the size chart at the bottom of the pattern.

See DROPS lesson: How to read size chart

The needle size provided in the pattern serves only as a guide, the important thing is to follow the knitting tension. And since knitting tension is very individual, you will have to adjust the needle size to ensure that YOUR tension is the same as in the pattern – maybe you’ll have to adjust 1, or even 2 needle sizes, up or down to achieve the correct tension. For this, we recommend that you work test swatches.

Should you work with a different knitting tension than the one provided, the measurements of the finished garment might deviate from the measurement sketch.

See DROPS lesson: How to measure your tension/gauge

See DROPS video: How to make a gauge tension swatch

Working a garment top-down provides more flexibility and room for personal adjustment. For example it is easier to try the garment on while working, as well as making adjustments to length of yoke and shoulder caps.

The instructions are carefully explaining every step, in the correct order. Diagrams are adjusted to the knitting direction and are worked as usual.

The diagram depicts all rows/rounds, and every stitch seen from the right side. It is read from bottom to top, from right to left. 1 square = 1 stitch.

When working back and forth, every other row is worked from the right side and every other row is worked from the wrong side. When working from the wrong side, the diagram will have to be worked reversed: from left to right, knit stitches are purled, purl stitches are knit etc.

When working in the round every round is worked from the right side and the diagram are worked from right to left on all rounds.

See DROPS lesson: How to read knitting diagrams

The diagram depicts all rows/rounds, and every stitch seen from the right side. It is worked from bottom to top, from right to left.

When working back and forth every other row is worked from the right side: from right to left and every other row is worked from the wrong side: from left to right.

When working in the round, every row in the diagram are worked from the right side, from right to left.

When working a circular diagram you start in the middle and work your way outwards, counter clockwise, row by row.

The rows usually start with a given number of chain stitches (equivalent to the height of the following stitch), this will either be depicted in the diagram or explained in the pattern.

See DROPS lesson: How to read crochet diagrams

Instructions for working several diagrams after each other on the same row/round, will often be written like so: “work A.1, A.2, A.3 a total of 0-0-2-3-4 times". This means you work A.1 once, then A.2 is worked once, and A.3 is repeated (in width) the number of times provided for your size – in this case like so: S = 0 times, M = 0 times, L=2 times, XL= 3 times and XXL = 4 times.

The diagrams are worked as usual: begin with the first row in A.1, then work the first row in A.2 etc.

See DROPS lesson: How to read knitting diagrams

See DROPS lesson: How to read crochet diagrams

The total width of the garment (from wrist-to-wrist) will be larger in the larger sizes, despite the actual sleeves being shorter. The larger sizes have longer sleeve caps and wider shoulders, so there will be a good fit in all sizes.

The measurement sketch/schematic drawing provides information regarding the full length of the garment. If it’s a jumper or a jacket the length is measured from the highest point on the shoulder (usually closest to the neckline), and straight down to the bottom of the garment. It is NOT measured from the tip of shoulder. Similarly, the length of yoke is measured from the highest point on the shoulder and down to where yoke is split into body and sleeves.

See DROPS lesson: How to read a schematic drawing

Diagrams are often repeated on the round or in height. 1 repeat is the diagram the way it appears in the pattern. If it says to work 5 repeats of A.1 in the round, then you work A.1 a total of 5 times after/next to each other in the round. If it says to work 2 repeats of A.1 vertically/in height you work the entire diagram once, then begin again at the start and work the entire diagram one more time.

Chain stitches are slightly narrower than other stitches and to avoid working the cast-on edge too tight, we simply chain more stitches to begin with. The stitch count will be adjusted on the following row to fit the pattern and measurement sketch.

The rib edge is more elastic and will contract slightly compared to, for example, stocking stitch. By increasing before the rib edge, you avoid a visible difference in width between the rib edge and the rest of the body.

It’s very easy to cast off too tightly, and by making yarn overs while casting off (and simultaneously casting these off) you avoid a too tight cast off edge.

See DROPS video: How to bind off with yarn overs (yo)

To achieve an even increase (or decrease) you can increase on, for example: every 3rd and 4th row alternately, like so: work 2 rows and increase on the 3rd row, work 3 rows and increase on the 4th. Repeat this until the increase is complete.

See DROPS lesson: Increase or decrease 1 st on every 3rd and 4th row alternately

Should you prefer to work in the round instead of back and forth, you may of course adjust the pattern. You’ll need to add steeks mid-front (usually 5 stitches), and follow the instructions. When you would normally turn and work from the wrong side, simply work across the steek and continue in the round. At the end you’ll cut the piece open, pick up stitches to work bands, and cover the cut edges.

See DROPS video: How to knit steeks and cut open

Should you prefer to work back and forth instead of in the round, you may of course adjust the pattern so you work the pieces separately and then assemble them at the end. Divide the stitches for the body in 2, add 1 edge stitch in each side (for sewing) and work the front and back pieces separately.

See DROPS lesson: Can I adapt a pattern for circular needles into straight needles?

Pattern repeats can vary slightly in the different sizes, in order to get the correct proportions. If you’re not working the exact same size as the garment in the photo, yours might deviate slightly. This has been carefully developed and adjusted so that the complete impression of the garment is the same in all sizes.

Make sure to follow instructions and diagrams for your size!

If you have found a pattern you like which is available in women’s size it’s not very difficult to convert it to men’s size. The biggest difference will be the length of sleeves and body. Start working on the women size that you think would fit across the chest. The additional length will be worked right before you cast off for the armhole/sleeve cap. If the pattern is worked top-down you can add the length right after the armhole or before the first decrease on sleeve.

Regarding additional yarn amount, this will depend on how much length you add, but it is better with a skein too many than too few.

All yarns will have excess fibres (from production) that might come off as lint or shedding. Brushed yarns (ie hairier yarns) have more of these loose, excess fibres, causing more shedding.

Shedding also depends on what is worn under or over the garment, and whether this pulls at the yarn fibres. It’s therefore not possible to guarantee that there will be no shedding

Below are some tips on how to get the best result when working with hairier yarns:

1. When the garment is finished (before you wash it) shake it vigorously so the looser hairs come off. NOTE: do NOT use a lint roller, brush or any method that pulls at the yarn.

2. Place the garment in a plastic bag and put it in your freezer - the temperature will cause the fibres to become less attached to each other, and excess fibres will come off easier.

3. Leave in the freezer for a few hours before taking it out and shaking it again.

4. Wash the garment according to the instructions on the yarn label.

Pilling is a natural process that happens to even the most exclusive of fibers. It's a natural sign of wear and tear that is hard to avoid, and that is most visible in high friction areas of your garment like a sweater's arms and cuffs.

You can make your garment look as new by removing the pilling, using a fabric comb or a pill/lint remover.

Dear Penny, you can find the finished measurements of the garnment on the schematic drawing at the bottom of the pattern. We suggest compare them to a piece that fits you more or less as you would prefer this piece fitting you. Happy Crafting!!

DROPS Design answered:

Hei Marianne. Jo, når du hekler rundt med staver, starter du med å hekle 3 luftmasker (da kommer du opp i samme høyde som en vanlig stav og disse luftmaskene erstatter 1 stav, om ikke annet er nevn i oppskriften). Nå du da har heklet omgangen rundt med staver, avslutter du med å feste omgangen med en kjedemaske i den siste av de 3 luftmaskene du startet omgangen med. Da har du liksom avsluttet omgangen/rundet. Stolpen foran jakken med 5 staver må også starte med 3 luftmasker, disse luftmaskene erstatter den første staven. Se gjerne hjelpevidoene til denne jakken. God Fornøyelse!

INC AS FOLLOWS ON SLEEVES: Inc 2 tr every row 0-0-1-3-4-4 times in total, then 1 tr every row 15-16-16-15- 15-17 times in total." How many times should you now actually inc

DROPS Design answered:

Dear Jo, the increases will be worked differently on body and on sleeves but at the same time. Depending on your size you will first increase 2 sts on every row (= 4 sts inc on back piece + 2 sts inc on each front piece) + 1 st on every row (= 2 sts inc on back piece + 1 st inc on each front piece) on body while increasing 2 sts (in the 4 largest sizes only) (= 4 sts inc on each sleeve) on every row then 1 st (2 sts inc on each sleeve) every row on sleeves. Happy crocheting!

Hi, I need some help with this pattern, please! At line 3 I should add only the Raglan augmentations? so it would be +2 front R +4 Rsleeve+4 back +4 L sleeve+2front L? Line 4 is only one augmentation each side of the A2 scheme? And only with line 5 I start augmenting back, front and sleeves as indicated at page3?

DROPS Design answered:

Dear Mrs Cornaggia, the increases for Raglan start on row 3, then depending on your size you will increase 2 sts on every row 3-16 times in total then 1 st on every row 12-5 times in total on body and on sleeves you will increase 2 sts on every row 0-4 times in total + 1 st on every row 15-17 times in total. This means you may have to increase only on body and sometimes on body and on sleeves. Happy crocheting!
