Pattern instructions

NOTE: This pattern is written in British English. All measurements in charts are in cm. For conversion from cm to inches - click here. There are different terms for crocheting in British and American English. If this pattern includes crochet, click for "crochet terms" here. For this pattern in American English, please click here.
PATTERN:
See diagrams A.1 to A.7.
A.1 shows beginning and end of every round, work A.2 5 times in total on round.
A.3 shows beginning and end of every round, work A.4 12 times in total on round.
Work A.5/A.6/A.7 in the round - A.x shows beginning and end of every round.

CROCHET INFO:
Replace first treble at beginning of round with 3 chain stitches, finish with 1 slip stitch in 3rd chain stitch at beginning of round.

CROCHET TIP (applies to sleeve):
After last double crochet on round work 6 chain stitches and continue on to next round with 1 double crochet around next chain space (= first chain space on next round). NOTE: Mark beginning of round with 1 marker thread between last chain stitch and first double crochet on next round, move the marker thread upwards. NOTE: BE CAREFUL NOT TO DISPLACE THE MARKER THREAD.

DECREASE TIP:
Work 1 double crochet around next chain space but wait with last pull through, work next double crochet around next chain space (do not work 6 chain stitches between double crochets), on last pull through, pull yarn through all 3 loops on hook.
----------------------------------------------------------

JACKET WORKED IN A CIRCLE:
Chain 5 on hook size 4.5 mm with Paris and form a ring with 1 slip stitch in first chain stitch.
Then work as follows: Work A.1 (the middle of A.1 shows beginning and end of every round, i.e. work from middle of A.1), A.2 5 times in total, finish with the other half of A.1. REMEMBER THE CROCHET TENSION!
When A.1/A.2 have been worked vertically, there are 156-156-156 trebles on last round. Piece measures approx. 30 cm in diameter.

Then work as follows: Work A.3 (the middle of A.3 shows beginning and end of every round, i.e. work from middle of A.3), A.4 12 times in total, finish with the other half of A.3 - AT THE SAME TIME on last round increase 7 trebles evenly (increase by working 2 trebles in same treble) = 202 trebles on round. When A.3/A.4 have been worked vertically, piece measures approx. 40 cm in diameter. Work 1 slip stitch in each of the first 2 trebles, next round begin from here (i.e. mid back of neck). Now work differently in the different sizes.

ROUND 5: Increase 15-15-15 trebles evenly = 417-417-456 trebles.
Repeat 1st and 2nd round in A.7 (without increases) = 139-139-152 chain spaces. In size S/M cut the yarn. Continue in size L-XXXL as follows:

SIZE L/XL - XXL/XXXL:
Repeat 2nd round in A.7 AT THE SAME TIME increase as follows:
ROUND 6: Increase 6-6 chain spaces evenly (increase by working 1 double crochet, 6 chain stitches, 1 double crochet and 2 chain stitches around same chain space = 1 chain space increased) = 145-158 chain spaces.
ROUND 7 (no increase): = 145-158 chain spaces.
ROUND 8: Increase 5-6 chain spaces evenly = 150-164 chain spaces.
ROUND 9 (no increase): = 150-164 chain spaces. Cut the yarn.
ALL SIZES:
= 139-150-164 chain spaces.
Continue working only over 39-42-45 chain spaces in each side – i.e. do not work over 30-33-37 chain spaces at the top by neck and 31-33-37 chain spaces at bottom of back. Continue with explanation under left front piece.

LEFT FRONT PIECE:
= 39-42-45 chain spaces. Continue back and forth as follows:
ROW 1: Work slip stitches until middle of the first chain space, 1 double crochet, * work 6 chain stitches, 1 double crochet around next chain space *, repeat from *-* and finish with 1 double crochet around last chain space = 38-41-44 chain spaces.
Repeat 1st row 3-3-7 more times. 35-38-37 chain spaces remain at the edge of front piece. Cut the yarn.

RIGHT FRONT PIECE:
Work same way as on left front piece over 39-42-45 chain spaces in the right side. Cut the yarn.

FINISHING EDGE:
Work an edge around the entire circle as follows:
Repeat 3rd-5th round in A.7 (and A.x) with increases as follows:
ROUND 3 (no increase): I.e. around every chain space work 1 treble and 2 chain stitches = 147-158-180 chain spaces.
ROUND 4: Increase 15-27-18 trebles evenly = 456-501-558 trebles.
ROUND 5: Increase 12-27-18 trebles evenly = 468-528-576 trebles.
Now repeat 1st and 2nd round in A.6 (and A.x) as follows:
ROUND 1 (no increase): = 78-88-96 fans.
ROUND 2 (no increase): (39-44-48 repetitions of 13 trebles) = 507-572-624 trebles. Fasten off.
Circle measures approx. 51-59-63 cm from centre mid back (= 102-118-126 cm in diameter in height), and approx. 58-66-77 cm from centre out to the side (= 116-132-154 cm in diameter in width).

SLEEVE:
Worked in the round from armhole and down, begin mid under sleeve (= 64-70-76 trebles on armhole).
ROUND 1: READ CROCHET TIP! Work * 1 double crochet in treble, 6 chain stitches, skip approx. 4 trebles *, repeat from *-* around entire armhole, there should be 15-18-21 chain spaces around armhole.
Continue to work 6 chain stitches and 1 double crochet around every chain space. When piece measures 4 cm, decrease 1 chain space before marker thread - READ DECREASE TIP! Repeat decrease alternately on each side of marker thread every 4 cm 4-5-6 more times = 10-12-14 chain spaces.
When piece measures 38-39-40 cm, work next round as follows:
Work 3 chain stitches (= 1 treble), work 4 treble around every chain space, finish with 1 slip stitch in 3rd chain stitch at beginning of round = 40-48-56 trebles. Sleeve measures approx. 39-40-41 cm. Fasten off.

Work another sleeve the same way.

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 is only meant 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 calculator, 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 calculator 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 calculated 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 calculator

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 calculator, 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 calculator 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 tension/gauge 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 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.

On a jacket measures are never taken along bands, unless specifically stated. Always measure inside band stitches when measuring the length.

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.

DROPS Design answered:

Dear Rachel, oops you are right, mistyped, I meant 26 clusters ( 2 clusters x 13 repeats are 26 and not 36). Happy crocheting!

Sorry just to clarify how many double treble clusters (one double treble ch3 one double treble in the same st) should I have at the end of the first round of A4? I have 156sts at the end of A2 do not sure where I have gone wrong. Many thanks

29.10.2018 - 12:18

DROPS Design answered:

Dear Rachel, there are 156 sts and 1 repeat of A.4/A.3 is worked over 12 sts - there are 2 "clusters" in each repeat, you will have 2 clusters x 13 repeats = 36 clusters in the 1st round round in A.3/A.4. Happy crocheting!

Hello on round A4 you increase 7 dc across the round but I am still only ending with 187 sts and from your diagram I have calculated it and totals 187 so I don't understand how I should end with 202?? The way I worked it out is: there are 24 cluster stitches (inc 3 ch in the middle of each cluster and 2 ch between each cluster st) and every other cluster you do 2 dc into the second part so 12 cluster sections have 8sts and 12 have 7sts = 180 + 7 for the increase sts totally 187 please help! :)

29.10.2018 - 02:34

DROPS Design answered:

Dear Rachel, at the end of A.1/A.2 there are 12 dc in each repeat - on last round in A.3/A.4 there are 15 dc in each repeat x 13 repeats in the round = 195 dc + 7 dc inc evenly on the round = 202 dc. Happy knitting!

Dear Mrs Milby, A.1 starts approximatively in the middle of the repeat - see symbols (10th and 11th at the beg of A.1) showing how to start and finish the round = so that you will start A.1 where stated, then repeat A.2 and finish A.1 from the right towards the symbol for the beg of the round. Happy crocheting!

Helyesbítek, az összesen 4 db egy pontból indított kétráhajtásos pálcát az előző sor egyráhajtásos pálcái közé célszerű ölteni. (A3-A4 minta) Bocsánat az akadékoskodásért.

A jelmagyarazat 9. soraban szerintem hibat ejtettetek. Az A3-A4 mintaban az egy szembol inditott, egyszerre befejezett 2 db ketrahajtasos (krp) palca leirasa pontatlan. Nincs lancszemiv, hanem az elozo sor erp (egyrahajtasos palca) tetejebe kell horgolni es nem rp (rovid palca) az elso, hanem krp. Kerem javitsatok, mert ami jelenleg a leirasban van, az nem jo. Nagyon tetszik az oldal, szuperek a mintak, erthetoek a leirasok, koszonet a munkatokert!

Kan je me misschien helpen met de tweede en derde rij van A5? Als ik het goed lees is het een vaste, dan 6 lossen (die vormt de losseboog) met weer een vaste. De volgende rij moeten er dan twee stokjes in de losseboog en 1 stokje in de vaste. Bij mij word dit niet mooi, die losseboog verfrommelt. Wat lees ik hier verkeerd?

DROPS Design answered:

Dag Anne, Het klopt precies zoals je het omschrijft. Probeer de 2 stokjes die je in de lossenboog haakt, in het midden van die boog te haken, zodat het minder verfrommelt.

How many double crochets into the beginning ring of 5 chains?

DROPS Design answered:

Hi Paula. You work like so: half of A.1, A.2 a total of 5 times, the second half of A.1 = 12 double crochets (with 1 chain in betweene each), counting the first 3 chains which replace 1 double crochet (see symbol definition). Happy crocheting.
