EXPLANATION FOR THE PATTERN: ---------------------------------------------------------- GARTER STITCH (back and forth): 1 ridge = knit 2 rows. 1 edge stitch in garter stitch = knit stitch from right side and knit stitch from wrong side. PATTERN: See diagram A.1. Diagrams show all rows in pattern seen from the right side. INCREASE TIP-1 (applies to legs in size 3/4 years): Increase 1 stitch inside 1 edge stitch in garter stitch by making 1 yarn over. On next row work yarn overs twisted to avoid holes. Work the increased stitches in A.1. INCREASE TIP-2 (evenly): To calculate how to increase evenly, use the total number of stitches on row (e.g. 44 stitches) and divide stitches by number of increases to be done (e.g. 14) = 3.1. In this example increase by making 1 yarn over after approx. every 3rd stitch. On next row knit yarn overs twisted to avoid holes. BUTTONHOLES (bottom up): Decrease for buttonholes on right band. 1 BUTTONHOLE = knit third and fourth stitch from edge together and make 1 yarn over. On next row purl or knit yarn over (depending on where in the diagram you are) to make holes. Decrease for buttonholes when piece measures (measured from where legs where put together): (<0): 5, 10, 15 and 20 cm 0/1 months: 6, 11, 16, 21 and 26 cm 1/3 months: 5, 10, 15, 20, 25 and 30 cm. 6/9 months: 6, 12, 17, 22, 27 and 32 cm. 12/18 months: 6, 12, 17, 23, 28 and 34 cm. 2 years: 9, 15, 21, 27, 33 and 39 cm. 3/4 years: 7, 13, 19, 25, 31, 37 and 43 cm ---------------------------------------------------------- START THE PIECE HERE: ---------------------------------------------------------- SUIT - SHORT OVERVIEW OF THE PIECE: Work each leg back and forth on circular needle, bottom up. Place legs together and work back and forth on circular needle from mid front up to sleeves. Then cast on new stitches for sleeves in each side and finish front pieces and back piece separately. Sew piece together on the shoulder. Finish by picking up stitches around the neck and work a hood. RIGHT LEG (when suit is worn): Cast on (32) 36-40-40-44 (44-48) stitches on circular needle size 4 mm with Merino Extra Fine. Work first row as follows from right side: 1 edge stitch in GARTER STITCH – read explanation above, work A.1A until 3 stitches remain on row (= 7-8-9-9-10 (10-11) repetitions of 4 stitches), work A.1B (= 2 stitches) and finish with 1 edge stitch in garter stitch. Continue pattern like this. REMEMBER THE KNITTING TENSION! When piece measures 4 cm, insert 1 marker in piece (marks fold). When piece measures 14 cm (only applies to size 3/4 years) increase 1 stitch in each side – read INCREASE TIP-1 (do not increase in the other sizes). Repeat increase in size 3/4 years when piece measures 24 cm = (32) 36-40-40-44 (44-52) stitches on needle. Work until piece measures (12) 12-16-23-31 (32-35) cm from cast-on edge, adjust so that next row is worked from right side. Cast off 1 stitch at beginning of the next 2 rows (i.e. cast off edge stitches) = (30) 34-38-38-42 (42-50) stitches. Then work the next 2 rows as follows, begin from right side: Work as before over all stitches and cast on (3) 3-3-5-5 (7-7) new stitches at the end of row (= mid back). Turn piece, work A.1 as before over all stitches, but make sure to continue pattern correctly, then cast on (4) 4-4-6-6 (8-8) stitches at the end of row from wrong side (= mid front). There are now (37) 41-45-49-53 (57-65) stitches on needle and piece measures approx. (13) 13-17-24-32 (33-36) cm from cast-on edge. Put piece aside and work left leg as explained below. LEFT LEG (when suit is worn): Cast on (32) 36-40-40-44 (44-48) stitches on circular needle size 4 mm and work first row as follows from right side: 1 edge stitch in garter stitch, work A.1A until 3 stitches remain on row (= 7-8-9-9-10 (10-11) repetitions of 4 stitches), work A.1B (= 2 stitches) and finish with 1 edge stitch in garter stitch. Continue pattern like this. When piece measures 4 cm, insert 1 marker in piece (marks fold). When piece measures 14 cm (only applies to size 3/4 years) increase 1 stitch in each side – remember INCREASE TIP-1 (do not increase in the other sizes). Repeat increase in size 3/4 years when piece measures 24 cm = (32) 36-40-40-44 (44-52) stitches on needle. Work until piece measures (12) 12-16-23-31 (32-35) cm from cast-on edge, adjust so that next row is worked from right side. Cast off 1 stitch at beginning of the next 2 rows (i.e. cast off edge stitches) = (30) 34-38-38-42 (42-50) stitches. Then work the next 2 rows as follows, begin from right side: Work as before over all stitches and cast on (4) 4-4-6-6 (8-8) new stitches at the end of row (= mid front). Turn piece, work A.1 as before over all stitches, but make sure to continue pattern correctly, then cast on (3) 3-3-5-5 (7-7) stitches at the end of row from wrong side (= mid back). There are now (37) 41-45-49-53 (57-65) stitches on needle and piece measures approx. (13) 13-17-24-32 (33-36) cm from cast-on edge. Cut the yarn. Now place the parts together as explained below. BODY: Place right leg and left leg on same circular needle with right leg first. Begin from right side on right leg, work 1 edge stitch in garter stitch, continue A.1 as before over the remaining stitches on right leg (make sure to continue pattern correct according to finish on leg), then continue pattern over the first (36) 40-44-48-52 (56-64) stitches on left leg (make sure to continue pattern correct) and finish with 1 edge stitch in garter stitch = (74) 82-90-98-106 (114-130) stitches on needle. Insert another marker in piece! NOW MEASURE PIECE FROM THIS MARKER! Continue A.1 back and forth with 1 edge stitch in garter stitch in each side towards mid front. When piece measures (3) 3-3-3-4 (5-5) cm from marker (adjust to work next row from right side) cast off 1 stitch at beginning of the next 2 rows (i.e. cast off edge stitches). Then work the next 2 rows as follows, begin from right side: Work as before over all stitches and cast on 3 new stitches at the end of row (= left band at the front). Turn piece, work A.1 as before over all stitches (make sure to continue pattern correctly) and cast on 3 new stitches at the end of row from wrong side (= right band at the front). There are now (78) 86-94-102-110 (118-134) stitches on needle. Continue A.1 back and forth over all stitches (i.e. do not work edge stitches in garter stitch). Remember BUTTONHOLES on right band - read explanation above. When piece measures (15) 20-24-27-28 (32-36) cm from the new marker, i.e. (28) 33-41-51-60 (65-72) cm from cast-on edge, divide the piece in each side. Finish front pieces and back piece separately as explained below. RIGHT FRONT PIECE: Begin from right side and work as before over the first (21) 23-25-27-29 (31-35) stitches, then cast on (9) 13-13-17-17 (21-25) new stitches for sleeve. Slip the remaining stitches on 1 stitch holder for back piece and left front piece. Continue A.1 back and forth as before but make sure that pattern fits over all stitches. AT THE SAME TIME cast on (8) 10-14-14-16 (20-22) new stitches for sleeve at the end of the next 2 rows from right side = (46) 56-66-72-78 (92-104) stitches on needle. Continue pattern back and forth over all stitches until piece measures (22) 28-32-35-36 (41-45) cm from marker, i.e. (35) 41-49-59-68 (74-81) cm from cast-on edge. At the beginning of next row from right side slip the first (8) 8-9-11-11 (12-12) stitches on 1 stitch holder for neck but to avoid cutting the yarn work them before slipping them on the stitch holder. Continue pattern back and forth as before and cast off for neck at the beginning of every row from mid front as follows: Cast off 2 stitches 1 time and 1 stitch (1) 1-2-2-2 (3-3) times = (35) 45-53-57-63 (75-87) stitches remain on needle. Then work until the entire suit measures approx. (24) 30-34-37-39 (44-49) cm from marker, i.e. (37) 43-51-61-71 (77-85) cm from cast-on edge, but adjust so that next row is worked from right side. Work 1 ridge back and forth over all stitches. Then cast off by knitting from the right side. The entire suit measures approx. (38) 44-52-62-72 (78-86) cm from cast-on edge. Now work back piece as explained below. BACK PIECE: Slip the first (36) 40-44-48-52 (56-64) stitches on stitch holder (seen from right side) on circular needle size 4 mm and continue A.1 back and forth over these stitches as before. AT THE SAME TIME cast on new stitches for sleeves at the end of every row in each side as follows: Cast on (9) 13-13-17-17 (21-25) stitches 1 time in each side and then (8) 10-14-14-16 (20-22) stitches 2 times in each side = (86) 106-126-138-150 (178-202) stitches on needle. Continue pattern back and forth over all stitches until piece measures (23) 29-33-36-38 (43-48) cm from marker). On next row cast off the middle (12) 12-16-20-20 (24-24) stitches for neck and finish each shoulder/sleeve separately. Then cast off 2 stitches on next row from neck = (35) 45-53-57-63 (75-87) stitches remain on needle for shoulder/sleeve. Then work until the entire suit measures approx. (24) 30-34-37-39 (44-49) cm from marker, but adjust according to front piece and make sure that next row is from right side. Work 1 ridge back and forth over all stitches. Then cast off by knitting from the right side. Work the other shoulder/sleeve the same way. Then work left front piece as explained below. LEFT FRONT PIECE: Slip the remaining (21) 23-25-27-29 (31-35) stitches on stitch holder back on needle size 4 mm. Begin from right side and continue A.1 back and forth as before.

Continue pattern back and forth over all stitches until piece measures the same as right front piece. At the beginning of next row from wrong side slip the first (8) 8-9-11-11 (12-12) stitches on 1 stitch holder for neck but to avoid cutting the yarn work them before slipping them on the stitch holder. Continue pattern back and forth as before and cast off for neck at the beginning of every row from mid front as follows: Cast off 2 stitches 1 time and 1 stitch (1) 1-2-2-2 (3-3) times = (35) 45-53-57-63 (75-87) stitches remain on needle. Then work until the entire suit measures approx. (24) 30-34-37-39 (44-49) cm from marker, i.e. (37) 43-51-61-71 (77-85) cm from cast-on edge, but measure so that next row is worked from right side.

Also ich komme nicht einmal mit einer Nadelstärke von 6 auf die 10x10 cm bei 21 Maschen. Bei einer Stärke von 4,5 hatte ich mit 21 Maschen nur 6cm. Bei einer Stärke von 6 habe ich ca 9,5cm. Woran liegt das? Ich habe auch die richtige Wolle bestellt. Die Größe 12-18 Monate sieht aus wie 0-1. Bitte um Aufklärung. Es stimmt irgendetwas nicht.

Liebe Gringots, waschen Sie Ihre Maschenprobe (mehr Lesen Sie hier) und messen Sie sie wieder, bei Merino Extra Fine ist es wichtig die Maschenprobe genau einzuhalten und im Zweifelsfall lieber zu fest als zu locker stricken. Viel Spaß beim stricken!

Dag Bernadette,
De fantasiesteek is in het telpatroon getekend en dit is inderdaad een variant op de gerstekorrel.

Hallo, eine Frage/Verbesserung zu Größe 12/18 Mon.: Beim Anschlagen der neuen Maschen am Ende der Beine muss doch die Reihenfolge genau umgekehrt sein, oder? Dh. beim rechten Bein am Ende der Hinreihe 6 M anschlagen, und am Ende der RückR 5 (Linkes Bein genau umgekehrt), sonst geht in der hinteren Mitte A1 beim Zusammenfügen nicht mehr auf (da 10 M insges.), genauso bei der Vorderen Mitte beim Zusammennähen. Danke schonmal für die Antwort!
25.01.2019 - 19:33DROPS Design answered:
Liebe Helena, die Maschenanzahl ist richtig, die neuen 5 Maschen stricken Sie wie im Muster (z.B. 2 li, 2 re, 1 li am rechten Bein) und die gleiche Reihe dann am linken Bein, dh von der Vorderseite gesehen 1 li, 2 re, 2 li, so sind die 2 x 1 M li dann weiter im Muster gestrickt und Sie haben immer abwechslungsweise 2 re/2 li über alle Maschen. Viel Spaß beim stricken!

Bonjour Mme Bernaied, on commence par tricoter les jambes séparément, puis on continue en les reprenant toutes les 2 (DOS & DEVANTS) jusqu'aux emmanchures, on termine ensuite chaque partie séparément: devant droit, devant gauche, dos, en montant les mailles de la manche/des manches. On rabat ensuite les mailles des épaules/manches, on fait les coutures et on va relever les mailles de la capuche autour de l'encolure. Bon tricot!
