Pattern instructions

NOTE: This pattern is written in American English. All measurements in charts are in cm. For conversion from inches to cm - click here. 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.
GARTER ST (worked in the round):
1 ridge = 2 rounds. * K 1 round and P 1 round *, repeat from *-*.

ELEVATION:
Work an elevation in stockinette st in the back of neck from mid back as follows: NOTE: On every turn in the middle of piece slip 1st st, tighten yarn and continue to work. Work 8-9-10-11-11-12 sts, turn, tighten yarn and work 16-18-20-22-22-24 sts. Turn, tighten yarn and work 29-31-3d-35-35-37 sts, turn, tighten yarn and work 42-44-46-48-48-50 sts. Turn, tighten yarn and work 50-52-54-56-56-58 sts, turn, tighten yarn and work 58-60-62-64-64-66 sts. Turn and work until mid back.

STRIPES:
Work all stripes with 2 strands Alpaca. When approx. 1 cm / 3/8'' in 1st-5th stripe remains, work a EYELET ROW - see explanation below.
Stripe 1: 9-9-9-10-10-10 cm / 3½''-3½''-3½''-4''-4''-4'' with 2 strands off white.
Stripe 2: 9-9-10-10-10-11 cm / 3½"-3½"-4"-4"-4"-4½" with 1 strand off white + 1 strand light pearl gray.
Stripe 3: 9-9-10-10-10-11 cm / 3½"-3½"-4"-4"-4"-4½" with 1 strand light pearl gray + 1 strand light gray.
Stripe 4: 9-10-10-10-11-11 cm / 3½"-4"-4"-4"-4½"-4½" with 1 strand light gray + 1 strand medium gray.
Stripe 5: 9-10-10-10-11-11 cm / 3½"-4"-4"-4"-4½"-4½" with 2 strands medium gray.
Stripe 6: 10-10-10-11-11-11 cm / 4"-4"-4"-4½"-4½"-4½" with 1 strand medium gray + 1 strand dark gray.

EYELET ROW:
When approx. 1 cm / 3/8'' remains on stripe 1-5, work eyelet row as follows:
* K 2 tog, 1 YO *, repeat from *-* the entire round. If 1 st remains on this round, K this st. On next round K the YOs to make holes.

INCREASE TIP-1 (evenly spaced):
To calculate how often inc should be done, use the total no of sts on row (e.g. 88 sts) and divide by no of inc to be done (e.g. 16) = 5.5. I.e. in this example inc 1 st after alternately every 5th and 6th st.
INCREASE TIP-2 (yoke):
Inc 1 st by making a YO. On next round K YOs twisted to avoid holes.
Inc alternately on the right and left side of each marker.
I.e. first time inc on the right side of all markers and second time inc on the left side of all markers, etc.

INCREASE TIP-3 (body):
Work until 2 st remains before marker, 1 YO, K 4 (marker is between these sts), 1 YO. On next round K YOs twisted to avoid holes.

DECREASE TIP:
Work until 4 sts remain before marker, K 2 tog, K 4 (marker is in the middle of these sts), slip 1 st as if to K, K 1, psso. NOTE: Adjust dec to avoid it on a round with eyelet row.

BIND-OFF TIP:
To avoid a tight bind-off edge, you may use a needle ½ size larger.
----------------------------------------------------------

JUMPER:
Work top down in the round on circular needle. Rounds start mid back.

YOKE:
Cast on 88-92-95-99-103-109 sts with 2 strands off white on circular needle size 4.5 mm / US 7. Work 2 ridges in GARTER ST - see explanation above. Switch to circular needle size 5 mm / US 8. Work 1 round in stockinette st while inc 16-16-21-21-21-23 sts evenly - READ INCREASE TIP-1 (evenly) = 104-108-116-120-124-132 sts.
Now work ELEVATION - see explanation above - in stockinette st in the neck.
REMEMBER THE KNITTING GAUGE Now insert 6 markers in the piece as follows: Work 9-9-10-10-11-11 sts, insert a marker, work 17-18-19-20-20-22 sts, insert a marker, work 17-18-19-20-20-22 sts, insert a marker, work 18-18-20-20-22-22 sts, insert a marker, work 17-18-19-20-20-22 sts, insert a marker work 17-18-19-20-20-22 sts, insert a marker, work the remaining 9-9-10-10-11-11 sts. On next round work STRIPES AND EYELET ROW - see explanation above, and inc 1 st at each marker – READ INCREASE TIP-2 (yoke). Inc like this every round 13-17-19-20-21-21 times, then every other round 8-8-8-10-12-14 times (= 21-25-27-30-33-35 times in total) = 230-258-278-300-322-342 sts. Work 1 round while AT THE SAME TIME inc 2-4-2-2-4-2 sts evenly = 232-262-280-302-326-344 sts. Work next round as follows: Work the first 34-38-40-44-49-53 sts (= half back piece), slip the next 48-55-60-63-65-66 sts on a stitch holder (= sleeve), cast on 6-6-8-8-10-12 sts under sleeve, work the next 68-76-80-88-98-106 sts (= front piece), slip the next 48-55-60-63-65-66 sts on a stitch holder (= sleeve), cast on 6-6-8-8-10-12 sts under sleeve, work the remaining 34-38-40-44-49-53 sts (= half back piece).

BODY:
There are now 148-164-176-192-216-236 sts for body. Insert a marker in the middle of the new 6-6-8-8-10-12 sts cast on under each sleeves (= 3-3-4-4-5-6 new sts on each side). NOW MEASURE THE PIECE FROM HERE. Continue in the round with stripes, stockinette st and eyelet row as before. When piece measures 4 cm / 1½'', dec 1 st on each side of marker in each side - READ DECREASE TIP. Dec like this every 2 cm / 3/4'' a total of 4 times = 132-148-160-176-200-220 sts. When piece measures 15-15-16-16-16-16 cm / 6"-6"-6 1/4"-6 1/4"-6 1/4"-6 1/4", inc 1 st on each side of marker in each side – see INCREASE TIP-3 (body). Inc like this every 2 cm / 3/4'' a total of 7 times = 160-176-188-204-228-248 sts. When piece measures 39-39-40-40-40-40 cm / 15 1/4"-15 1/4"-15 3/4"-15 3/4"-15 3/4"-15 3/4", switch to circular needle size 4.5 mm / US 7. Work 2 ridges in garter st and bind off - READ BIND-OFF TIP. Piece measures 60-62-64-66-68-70 cm / 23 5/8''-24 3/8''-25¼''-26''-26¾''-27½'' in total from shoulder.

SLEEVE:
Work sleeves in the round on double pointed needles. NOW MEASURE THE PIECE FROM HERE. Slip sts from stitch holder back on double pointed needles size 5 mm / US 8 (= 48-55-60-63-65-66 sts). Pick up 1 st in each of the 6-6-8-8-10-12 sts cast on under sleeve, insert a marker in the middle of these sts (= 3-3-4-4-5-6 new sts on each side of marker) = 54-61-68-71-75-78 sts. Continue with stockinette st, stripes and eyelet holes as on body. When piece measures 4 cm / 1½'', dec 1 st on each side of marker mid under sleeve. Dec like this approx. every 4-3-2-2-2-2 cm / 1½"-1"-3/4"-3/4"-3/4"-3/4" 9-12-15-15-16-17 times in total = 36-37-38-41-43-44 sts. AT THE SAME TIME in size S, M and L work 3rd, 4th and 5th stripe 2-2-1 cm / 3/4"-3/4"-½'' longer than on body (this is done so that the last stripes will not be much more longer than the other). In size XL, XXL and XXXL work stripes as on body.
When stripes are done, continue with last stripe (= 6th stripe) until finished measurements. When piece measures 49-48-47-45-44-42 cm / 19 1/4"-19"-18½"-17 3/4"-17 1/4"-16½", switch to double pointed needles size 4.5 mm / US 7. Work 2 ridges and bind off.
Make another sleeve the same way.

Each of our patterns has specific tutorial videos to help you.

Do you have a question? See a list of frequently asked questions (FAQ)

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.

Hei Jonna. I str. L. Du øker ved de 6 merkene, og dette skal du gjøre på hver omgange 19 ganger (altså 19 ganger i høyden), deretter skal du øke ved de 6 merkene på hver 2. omgang 8 ganger. mvh DROPS Design

Liebe Silke, es ist so richtig, es sind hier keine richtige Raglan, sondern lieber so eine Rundpasse - siehe Maßskizze. Es wird auch nur 1 Masche an jedem Markierung zugenommen (nicht 2 bei 4 Markierer wie beim Raglan). Viel Spaß beim stricken!

Jeg har begynt å strikke, men det må være en feil i oppskriften. Det stemmer ikke med å sette inn 6 merker og så øke til sammen 21 ganger ved hvert av disse, det blir alt for mange masker på bærestykket. Så vidt jeg tidligere har erfart settes det inn 4 øke-merker når man strikker ovenfra og ned, men da stemmer heller ikke masketallene.

28.10.2019 - 11:38

DROPS Design answered:

Hei Wenche. Det skal økes vekselsvis på høyre og venstre side av hvert merke på bærestykket, les ØKETIPS-2 (bærestykke). Når du er ferdig med alle økningene skal du ha 230-258-278-300-322-342 masker. NÅ deles det deles opp mellom for-og bakstykke og ermene. Mange oppskrifter er skrevet med 4 merketråder, men denne har 6 merketråder. God Fornøyelse!

Du kan feks legge til en stripe i en av fargene du allerede har (feks kan den øverste og den nederste stripen være like), men da vil det går med mer garn av denne fargen. Alternativt kan du velge 1 farge til, som du sier. Eller så kan du tilpasse oppskriften slik at du har 5 striper: altså strikke hver stripe litt lenger. Hullradene strikkes når det gjenstår 1 cm av stripen, som forklart i oppskriften. God fornøyelse

Jeg vil gjerne bruke Paris i stedet for. Har sett på fargene 16, 17, 19, 35 og 23 ( hals og ned) Vil disse passe bra sammen? Tilsvarer det samme antall nøster som Alpaca? Dvs 3, 2, 2, 4 og 1 i str M. Takk for hjelpa.

Hei Turid. Ja, det høres ut som en fin kombinasjon det. Eventuelt kan du vurdere å bytte 23 med 26 da denne tar igjen tonene i natur og lys gul. Om du vil legge til en farge til (se svaret ditt over) har du jo flere muligheter innen både gultoner og grå- (eller brun) toner. Om du strikker alle 6 stripene vil jeg tro du trenger et sted mellom 2 og 3 nøster til hver stripe i størrelse M. Som du ser er noen av fargene i Alpaca brukt i av stripene - det vil jo ikke være tilfellet for deg. Kanskje det holder med 2 nøster til den øverste stripen. God fornøyelse

Hallo liebes Drops-Team, ich verstehe die Passe Anleitung leider nicht. 1. Wie nehme ich bei 6 Maschenmarkierern 13 Maschen zu? 2 je Markierung und dann eine am Ende der Reihe? 2. Wie nehme ich bei 6 Markierern 8 Maschen in der 2. Runde zu? Danke für die Hilfe und liebe Grüße Anika

Liebe Anika, es werden 6 Maschen bei jeder Zunahmenrunde zugenommen = 1 Masche am jeder Markierer und diese Zunahmen wiederholen Sie 13 x in jeder Runde (= 6 Zunahmen x 13 = 78 M sind dann zugenommen) und 8 x in jeder 2. Runde (= 6 Zunahmen x 8 = 48 M sind dann zugenommen) = 104 + 78 + 48 = 230 M. Siehe ZUNAHMENTIPP-2 (Passe). Viel Spaß beim stricken!
