But that’s precisely the problem! If I start the third line A4 from the underarm (the first stitch of the new round is basically the third stitch from the underarm) I get the mismatch because the triangle will be stitched earlier: I can’t understand where I am going wrong
09.04.2023 kl. 14:12:DROPS Design answered:
Dear Mary, you need to adjust the stitches before starting the triangle. In this case, you need to simply knit stitches (not just the amount indicated in the pattern) so that the triangle won't be mismatched. The pattern under the arm may get slightly mismatched initially but that isn't important, since it will later on match correctly. Happy knitting!

Yes, I can see that the pattern is the same. But if I follow the instructions from A4 third line, I should start the "triangle" after 3 stitches of the body, while according to the stitches I have after the line with the arrow, A1, I should start the triangle after 5 stitches but this means that it will be "anticipated" hence the mismatch. Does it mean that I have not divided the garment accordingly? Many thanks and Happy Easter!
09.04.2023 kl. 11:09:DROPS Design answered:
Dear Mary, take into account that you should have adjusted the start of the round in the body; you adjust so that the beginning of the round is in the middle stitch cast on under the sleeve. This should help adjust the pattern so that the triangle in A.4 won't get mismatched with the pattern in the yoke in A.1. Happy knitting!

Thanks! But I am still confused: the instructions say that the yoke is finished when I have 168 stitches (S size). If I had not knit the last row (the one with the arrow), I would not have got 168 stitches. In any case, once I have knit the row with the arrow, if I then start A4 from the third line I still get a mismatch in the pattern and I do not know where I get it wrong. Well, I know that I do something wrong while shifting from the yoke to the body but I can't figure out what.
07.04.2023 kl. 10:25:DROPS Design answered:
Dear Mary, after having worked the row with the arrow, you should have knitted round, where you separated the stitches for each part of the garment. Then, you should start the body with the third row of A.4. There shouldn't be a mismatch there. You can check that the third row of A.4 is exactly like the third row in A.1 after the row with the arrow, so they should be matching. Hope this helps!

Sorry, I am still unclear: I have finished the yoke knitting the A1-A3-A5 line with the arrow. Then I divided the work and I went for a knitted round. Now which line should I knit first and from which diagram?
05.04.2023 kl. 09:04:DROPS Design answered:
Dear Mary, the arrows in the chart mean that, if the gauge is correct, you should finish the raglan/yoke when you reach the arrow for your size (before working it). If you have worked this row, then you will need to start the new part by working the third row of the new chart (A.4). Happy knitting!

Hi! "Continue the pattern from yoke on body – making sure to continue with the correct row in the diagram after the yoke. " Does this mean that if I finish A1 (S size) with the line with the arrow, the next line for the body in A4 is in fact the thirs one of the diagram?
04.04.2023 kl. 08:59:DROPS Design answered:
Hi Mary, Yes, if you finished the diagram before separating for the body and sleeves, you continue with the first row in the diagram. Happy Easter!

"Knit as far as the middle stitch cast on under the sleeve. The round now starts here." Does it mean that the round starts after the second or after the third stitch under the sleeve? Many thanks!
08.03.2023 kl. 16:03:DROPS Design answered:
Dear Mary, yes correct: work the first 2 of the 5 stitches cast on under 1st sleeve, the rounds will now start here, before the middle of the new stitches. Happy knitting!

Following from your last answer: "...you will start the next round 1 stitch eariler. So, you need to not work the last stitch of the previous round". I interpret this as moving the stitch marker one stitch behind and working that stitch as the first one of the next round rather than the last one of the previous round. Is this correct? So it is basically just a matter of moving the stitch marker?
07.03.2023 kl. 12:16:DROPS Design answered:
Dear Mary, you will now work the dividing round, this means you don't need the markers anymore, you start working the dividing round when the last stitch on previous round remain on left needle, slip the next 39 sts (starting with the last stitch previous round + the first 38 sts next round). Happy knitting!

Hi, I have just finished all the increases on the raglan and I have 168 stitches (S size). I'll go now go for a knitted round but what does it mean " adjust so the round now starts 1 stitch earlier"? Plus, the 39 stitches I habe to put aside, correspond to the stiches that are within the first and the second marker?
04.03.2023 kl. 10:25:DROPS Design answered:
Dear Mary, after finishing the increases and reaching the indicated length (21cm from the marker), you will start the next round 1 stitch eariler. So, you need to not work the last stitch of the previous round. On the other hand, the first marker was inserted in the transition between the back and the sleeve and the second marker between the sleeve and the front. Since you have to put aside the stitches which correspond to the sleeve, these stitches are all in between the first and 2nd marker. Happy knitting!

I am sorry, I have tried many times to work this without success. Can you please just tell me what I should do between the 1st and the 2nd marker in the second raglan? Maybe in this way, I can understand the logic. But if you do not specify the bit between these 2 markers, I am lost. Many thanks in advance!
11.02.2023 kl. 10:45:DROPS Design answered:
Dear Mary, Work as follows: marker 1, k1 (=raglan line), 1YO, k7 (= sleeve), 1 YO, k1, 2nd marker, k1 (=raglan line), 1 YO, A.1, A.2, A.3 (for the front), 1 YO, k1, 3rd marker, k1 (= raglan line), e.t.c. Happy knitting!
13.02.2023 kl. 00:02:Mary wrote:
Can you please specify which are the stitches included within the first 2 stitch markers? My understanding was that "knit 1, 1 yarn over, knit 7, 1 yarn over, knit 1, insert 1 marker here (transition between right sleeve and front piece), knit 1, 1 yarn over" is within the first 2 stitch markers but if I do what you told me above for the second raglan, I go over the second stitch marker and I think it's wrong, I think I should stay within the 2 stitch markers.
07.02.2023 kl. 13:28:DROPS Design answered:
Dear Mary, the round starts between the first 2 raglan stitches, reason why you start with K1 (and end with K1) - then you are right, the next marker is between the 2 knitted stitches at the end of sleeve before front piece. You should have K2 on each raglan lines (K1, marker, K1) and you will increase on either side of these K2. Happy knitting!

Sorry, I am still not clear. In the first Raglan, I have this bit "knit 1, 1 yarn over, knit 7, 1 yarn over, knit 1, insert 1 marker here". Now, for the second raglan, which is the bit that correspond to this one?

Dear Mary, on the 2nd raglan increase, work; K1 (raglan stitch), YO (new raglan increase for sleeve), K9 (the K7 from 1st round + the 2 raglan increases), YO (new raglan increase for sleeve), K2 (raglan stitches), YO (new raglan increase for body), diagrams etc.. On 3rd raglan increase you will start with K1, YO, K11 (the K9 + the 2 sts increased the 2nd time), YO, K2, etc..Can this help?

Hi, always following to the last answer I got. So "this means for the 2nd increase, you will work: K1 (raglan st), YO (new increase for raglan), K9 (= K7 + 2 previous inc), YO..." does this mean that the difference between the first raglan and any additional one is that I have to add 2 more K per each increase?
07.02.2023 kl. 10:59:DROPS Design answered:
Dear Mary, yes, you need to knit the increases in the next round. So you will have 2 more knitted stitches per increases in each round. Happy knitting!

Hi, once I have finished the first raglan, the instructions say: "Continue this pattern and increase to raglan every 2nd round.." but does this mean I have to shift to the diagram? I think this passage is not clear at all. If I redo this: "knit 1, 1 yarn over, knit 7, 1 yarn over, knit 1, insert 1 marker here (transition between right sleeve and front piece), knit 1, 1 yarn over, A.1 over the next 5-5-5-6-6-6 stitches, A.." it doe snot work as I have more stitches now. What am I missing?
07.02.2023 kl. 00:34:DROPS Design answered:
Dear Mary, the increases for the raglan are worked as explained under RAGLAN at the beginning of the written pattern, this means for the 2nd increase, you will work: K1 (raglan st), YO (new increase for raglan), K9 (= K7 + 2 previous inc), YO (new inc for raglan), K2 (raglan sts), YO (inc for raglan), work row 3 diagrams A.1, A.2,A.3 as before, etc..; Happy knitting!

Dear Lotekky, there will always be at least 1 knit stitch between 2 yarn overs. Happy knitting!

13.06.2022 kl. 05:50:DROPS Design answered:
Dear Alyssa, when you have done all raglan increases, continue working the lace pattern as before but do not increase anymore - just make sure you will have enough room to work every decrease compensated by a yarn over in the lace pattern to keep correct number of stitches; if there are not enough stitches for the lace pattern, knit these stitches . Happy knitting!
