Thank you for your reply. I assume after casting off the 8 Stitches at underarm I continue in back and forth stocking stitch until the top and THEN decrease to form the cap of the sleeve? I was always taught the cap of the sleeve started at the underarm and went to the shoulder, but I gather this pattern is different.
26.01.2023 kl. 05:11:DROPS Design answered:
Dear Sherry, you first cast off (not decrease) 8 sts mid under sleeve, then continue back and forth on needle from mid under sleeve casting off at the beginning of each row on each side (= both from RS and WS) for the sleeve cap: 2 sts 3 times (= 2 sts at the beg of next 6 rows), etc.. so that you cast off the same number of sts on each side of the sleeve. So this pattern is not different. Happy knitting!

It says to continue until sleeve measures 22”, which is less than 3” from start of underarm decrease (19 1/4”.) With all of the decreases ( including the initial 8) this only adds up to 9 rows, which is nowhere near the 7 1/2” to fit into the body of the sweater.
24.01.2023 kl. 18:27:DROPS Design answered:
Dear Sherry, sleeve should be 22½'' in total minus 19 1/4" when you start sleeve cap - ie a total of 3,25" = ca 8 cm. Hope it can help. Happy knitting!

Hi Drops Design… Thank you for your prompt reply. At the underarm of the sleeve I had 58 stitches and 19 1/4” in length, as per the pattern. I bound off 8 stitches ( all in 1 row- now 50 stitches) under the arm, then 2 stitches at the beginning of the row 3 times ( 6 rows and now 44 stitches, and 1 stitch once both sides(2 rows-42 stitches).
24.01.2023 kl. 18:25:DROPS Design answered:
Dear Sherry, the total length of sleeve cap for size S should be 8 cm (see chart) and all the cast off stitches should be sewn along the whole armhole, should you have increased then cast off as in the pattern, then the sleeve should fit nicely around armhole. Happy knitting!

I am making this sweater in size small and the body piece from the underarm to the shoulder is 7 1/2” , however when I knit the sleeve the length from the underarm to the shoulder is only 3 inches. Is there a correction for the sleeve cap, as 3” is far too small. Thank you and I look forward to your reply.
22.01.2023 kl. 05:05:DROPS Design answered:
Hi Sherry, The sleeve cap and top of sleeve should fit into the armhole (so be bigger than your 3 inches). Have you followed all the increases correctly and worked the sleeve cap back and forth to finish? Happy knitting!

I hope this is the last question I have to ask, but on the collar instructions, it says "work all sts from stitch holder and every 3 sts work this together with next st." Does this mean knit 2 together on every three sts, which will mean decreasing 6 sts on each stitch holder totalling 12 sts. So why then does it say I should have 202 sts left? because, I had 202 stitches before I started the decreases, therefore, I should have 190 sts left.??
26.11.2019 kl. 22:16:DROPS Design answered:
Dear Mrs Willmott, when you worked the short rows, you left 3 sts unworked at the end of each row. When working all stitches back, you might have a small gap every third stitch due to the short rows. To avoid these gaps, pick up the thread before the next stitch and put it twisted on needle and work these both stitch (= thread picked up + next stitch) together; this will happen every 3rd stitch = this won't change your number of stitches, you should still have 202 sts at the end of this row. Happy knitting!
27.11.2019 kl. 07:55:Kath Wilmott wrote:
Sorry, me again! Are you sure you mean dec. '3' stitches because the pattern says '2' stitches 3 times? Also you say 'then 1 stitch 2 times (4 decreaes) ? Surely 1 x 2 is 2, not 4?
28.10.2019 kl. 17:37:DROPS Design answered:
Hi Kath, Each decrease is at both ends of the row - each time you start a new row you cast off; so decrease 1 two times means 1 at each end x 2, so 4 stitches decreased. Hope this helps.
29.10.2019 kl. 07:15:Kath Wilmott wrote:
Hi, I am still having a problem with the 'Sleeve Cap'. It is probably because there is no mention of the number of stitches left on the needle after any dec. or inc. I cast off 8sts, then dec. 2sts on each side x 3 times, THIS MAKES THE CAP SIDES UNEVEN. Then 1 stitch, twice, as you say, I have 38 sts left. But then I dec. 2 sts each side, (so 4 sts every row**), until 56cm., now I am left with 6 sts only? This is just not right. ** should this be 2 sts each row, NOT each sIde.
26.10.2019 kl. 23:34:DROPS Design answered:
Hi Kath, You decrease 3 stitches at the beginning of each row on both sides of the sleeve cap - so 6 decreases in total. Then 1 stitch 2 times (so 4 decreases) . When it comes to the 2 stitches on both sides of the cap, you are still only casting off at the beginning of each row, (2 stitches each row). I hope this helps and happy knitting!
28.10.2019 kl. 07:39:Kath Wilmott wrote:
On the Cap Sleeve instructions, it says . . Cast off for sleeve cap at the beg of every row each side: 2 sts 3 times (12 sts ) and 1 st 1-2-4-5-6-9 times, (2sts), then 2 sts each side until piece measures 56 cm. Cast off remaining sts. So, with 62 sts on the needle, cast off 8 sts for sleeve cap = 54 sts, then, minus 12st = 42 sts, then 2sts = 40 sts left. Could you tell me if this is correct? I must admit, I am having trouble with this pattern. Thank you so much.
23.10.2019 kl. 21:30:DROPS Design answered:
Hi Kath, It looks like you are working size M, so as you say you have 54 stitches before starting the cap. Then decrease 2 stitches on each side x 3 = 42 stitches and 1 stitch on each side x 2 = 38 stitches. Happy knitting!

I am having trouble with this pattern: page 2 ‘Left front piece’ – the part which says: “Cast off for armhole at the beg of every row from the side…..” I seem to be left with 22 sts instead of 18 sts? I have read it again and again, but don't understand where I've gone wrong, Can you help me please?
20.09.2019 kl. 11:00:DROPS Design answered:
Dear Mrs Wilmott, there were 30 sts for front piece, you decrease 1 stitch 4 times for neck and 4 stitches for armhole (8 stitches in total, 4 on front piece, 4 on back piece), then decrease for armhole: 2 stitches 1 time and 1 stitch 2 times = 30-4-4-2-2= 18 stitches remain for shoulder. Happy knitting!

Hola Monica. Las agujas circulares se usan mayormente para tener suficiente espacio para todos los pts en las ag y para trabajar en redondo. En estos casos no se puede sustituir las ag circulares por rectas. Si trabajas con ag rectas y cada parte por separado (por elemplo la espalda y el delantero debes añadir los pts orillo (para la costura) a cada lado de la labor.

Dear Mrs Ellis, for the sleeve cap, bind off at the beg of every row on each side: 2 sts 3 times, then bind off 2 sts at the beg of every row (both from RS and from WS) 2 sts until sleeve measures 56 cm (number of sts remaining will depend on the number of row you will have to work till sleeve measures 56 cm), then bind off 3 sts 1 time on each side and bind off remaining sts. Happy knitting!
