------------------------------------------------------- EXPLANATIONS FOR THE PATTERN: ------------------------------------------------------- PATTERN: See diagram A.1. INCREASE TIP-1 (evenly spaced): To work out how to increase evenly, count the total number of stitches on the needle (e.g. 12 stitches) and divide by the number of increases to be made (e.g. 4) = 3. In this example, increase by making 1 yarn over after each 3rd stitch. On the next round work the yarn overs twisted to avoid holes. INCREASE TIP-2: BEFORE MARKER: The new stitch will be twisted, leaning towards the right. Use left needle to pick up strand between 2 stitches from the round below, pick up strand from behind and knit stitch in front loop. AFTER MARKER: The new stitch will be twisted, leaning towards the left. Use left needle to pick up strand between 2 stitches from the round below, pick up strand from the front and knit stitch in back loop. DECREASE TIP (for sleeves): Decrease 1 stitch on either side of the marker as follows: Work until there are 3 stitches left before the marker, knit 2 together, knit 2 (marker thread sits between these 2 stitches), slip 1 stitch as if to knit, knit 1 and pass the slipped stitch over the knitted stitch. BINDING-OFF TIP: To avoid the bind-off edge being tight you can bind off with a larger size needle. If the edge is still tight, make 1 yarn over after approx. each 4th stitch at the same time as binding off; the yarn overs are bind off as normal stitches ------------------------------------------------------- START THE PIECE HERE: ------------------------------------------------------- SWEATER – SHORT OVERVIEW OF THE PIECE: The piece is worked in the round, top down. Stiches are increased on the yoke for the shoulders front and back, then stitches are increased for the sleeves. The yoke is divided for the body and sleeves; the body is continued in the round. The sleeves are worked in the round with double pointed needles, top down. NECK: Cast on 96-104-104-112-120-128 stitches with circular needle size 3.5 mm = US 4 and Karisma. Knit 1 round. Then work rib as follows: Purl 1, * knit 2, purl 2 *, work from *-* until there are 3 stitches left, knit 2 and purl 1. Continue this rib for 8½ cm = 3¼". Change to circular needle size 4.5 mm = US 7. Insert a marker at the beginning of the round (mid-back). Leave the marker there; THE PIECE IS MEASURED FROM THE MARKER! YOKE: On the next round you increase stitches, work pattern and insert 4 markers (between stitches) as follows: Work A.1 (= 4 stitches) over 16-20-20-20-20-24 stitches (= 4-5-5-5-5-6 times in width = half back piece), insert marker 1, knit 12-12-12-12-16-16 and increase 4-4-8-8-8-8 stitches evenly over these stitches – read INCREASE TIP-1, insert marker 2 (= shoulder), A.1 over the next 36-40-40-44-44-48 stitches (= 9-10-10-11-11-12 times in width = front piece), insert marker 3, knit 12-12-12-12-16-16 and increase 4-4-8-8-8-8 stitches evenly over these stitches, insert marker 4 (= shoulder) and A.1 over the last 20-20-20-24-24-24 stitches (= 5-5-5-6-6-6 times in width = half back piece) = 104-112-120-128-136-144 stitches. SADDLE SHOULDER INCREASE: Work stockinette stitch over the shoulder stitches and pattern A.1 over the front and back pieces. On the next round increase for saddle shoulders as follows: Increase 1 stitch BEFORE markers 1 and 3 and 1 stitch AFTER markers 2 and 4 - read INCREASE TIP-2 (= 4 stitches increased). I.e. there are increases on back piece and front piece, and number of shoulder stitches remain the same. The increased stitches are worked into A.1 as you go. Pattern A.1 is repeated in height. Increase like this every round a total of 20-20-24-24-28-28 times = 184-192-216-224-248-256 stitches. The piece measures approx. 8-8-9-9-11-11 cm = 3⅛"-3⅛"-3½"-3½"-4⅜"-4⅜" from the marker on the neck. REMEMBER THE KNITTING GAUGE! SLEEVE INCREASE: Now increase for the sleeves as follows: Increase 1 stitch AFTER markers 1 and 3 and 1 stitch BEFORE markers 2 and 4 (= 4 stitches increased). I.e. increase in shoulder stitches, number of stitches in front piece and back piece remains the same. Increase like this every 2nd round a total of 14-11-13-12-12-14 times = 240-236-268-272-296-312 stitches. The piece measures approx. 19-16-19-18-20-22 cm = 7½"-6¼"-7½"-7"-8"-8¾" from the marker. Continue with stockinette stitch and pattern as before without further increases until the piece measures 19-17-19-19-20-22 cm = 7½"-6¾"-7½"-7½"-8"-8¾". YOKE INCREASE: Now increase 1 stitch on each side of the marker as follows: Work until 1 stitch remain before markers 1 and 3, increase 1 stitch BEFORE marker, work 1 stitch, move the marker to the right needle and increase 1 stitch AFTER marker. Work until markers 2 and 4, increase 1 stitch BEFORE marker, move the marker to the right needle, work one stitch and increase 1 stitch AFTER marker (= 8 stitches increased). The increased stitches on the front and back pieces are worked into pattern A.1 and the increased stitches on the sleeves are worked in stockinette stitch (stitches between markers 1 and 2 and markers 3 and 4). Increase like this every 2nd round a total of 8-12-12-16-16-16 times = 304-332-364-400-424-440 stitches. When all the increases are finished, the piece measures 25-26-28-30-32-34 cm = 9¾"-10¼"-11"-11¾"-12½"-13⅜" from the marker on the neck. Now divide the piece for body and sleeves on the next round as follows: Work the first 44-52-56-60-64-68 stitches (= half back piece), place the next 60-62-70-76-80-84 stitches on a thread for the sleeve, cast on 8-8-8-8-8-12 stitches under the sleeve, work 92-104-112-124-132-136 stitches (= front piece), place the next 60-62-70-76-80-84 stitches on a thread for the sleeve, cast on 8-8-8-8-8-12 stitches under the sleeve and work the last 48-52-56-64-68-68 stitches (= half back piece). Body and sleeves are finished separately. BODY: = 200-224-240-264-280-296 stitches. Continue with pattern A.1 as before with stockinette stitch over the 8-8-8-8-8-12 stitches cast on under each sleeve. A.1 is repeated 23-26-28-31-33-34 times in width on both the front and the back piece. When the body measures 22-23-23-23-23-23 cm = 8¾"-9"-9"-9"-9"-9", change to circular needle size 3.5 mm = US 4 and work rib as follows: Purl over purl and knit over the lace pattern and over the 8-8-8-8-8-12 stockinette stitches under the sleeves work as follows: Purl 1, * knit 2, purl 2 *, work from *-* 1-1-1-1-1-2 times, knit 2 and purl 1. You now have a rib with knit 2, purl 2 over all stitches. When the rib measures 7 cm = 2¾", bind off with knit over knit and purl over purl – read BINDING-OFF TIP! SLEEVE: Place the 60-62-70-76-80-84 stitches from the thread on the one side of the piece on double pointed needles size 4.5 mm = US 7 and knit up 1 stitch in each of the 8-8-8-8-8-12 stitches cast on under the sleeve = 68-70-78-84-88-96 stitches. Insert a marker in the middle of the new stitches under the sleeve. This will be used when decreasing under the sleeve. Work stockinette stitch in the round. When the piece measures 3 cm = 1⅛" from the division, decrease 1 stitch on each side of the marker – read DECREASE TIP. Repeat this decrease every 6-5-3-2-2-1½ cm = 2⅜"-2"-1⅛"-¾"-¾"-½" a total of 5-5-8-10-11-14 times = 58-60-62-64-66-68 stitches. Continue with stockinette stitch until the body measures 33-32-31-30-30-28 cm = 13"-12½"-12¼"-11¾"-11¾"-11" from the division. Knit 1 round where you increase 18-16-18-16-18-16 stitches evenly spaced = 76-76-80-80-84-84 stitches. Change to circular needle size 3.5 mm = US 4. Work rib (= knit 2, purl 2) for 5 cm = 2". Bind off with knit over knit and purl over purl – remember BINDING-OFF TIP. Work the other sleeve in the same way. ASSEMBLY: Fold the neck double to the inside and sew down. To avoid the neck being tight and rolling outwards, it is important that the seam is elastic. |

Je trouve ce modèle très joli mais du fait que le col est haut et que le devant est pareil que le dos ,quand je mets le pull ça fait une bosse devant juste en dessous du col J’ai démonter le col et en refaire un que j ai recousu sur l’encolure

Je tricote le modèle 215-21. Je viens de terminer le col : 104 mailles taille M. J’ai un problème pour réaliser l’empiècement. En effet sur le patron, il est indiqué : tricoter A1 = 4 mailles augmentations 1/2 dos ; toujours A1 augmenter 4 mailles épaule gauche ; idem 8 mailles devant ; à nouveau 4 mailles épaules droite et 4 mailles pour le second 1/2 dos soit au total 24 augmentations. 104 mailles du col + 24 augmentations = 128 mailles correspondant à la taille XL.

Bonjour Mme Ribeiro, tricotez ainsi: 20 m de A.1 pour le demi-dos + (12+4) m pour la manche + 40 m de A.1 pour le devant + (12+4) pour la manche + 20 m de A.1 pour le demi-dos soit: 20+16+40+16+20=112 m (vous aviez 104 m et avez augmenté 2 x 4 m, soit 104 + 8 = 112). Bon tricot!

Een vraag over de stekenverhouding: Van welke naald gaan jullie uit. Dit staat er namelijk niet bij Vriendelijke groet
01.04.2023 - 19:19DROPS Design answered:
Dag Lia,
Het proeflapje wordt met naald 4,5 gebreid of de dikste naald. Naald 3,5 is alleen voor de boorden.

I’ve really enjoyed knitting this sweater, but I don’t really like that the sleeves end up really wide at the bottom. Could you suggest an interval for further decreases to make the sleeves a bit more tapered, please? Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you
21.02.2023 - 22:21DROPS Design answered:
Dear Maja, we are unfortunately not able to adjust every pattern to every single request, maybe you can calculate your own decreases following your own measurements. Feel free to contact your DROPS store for any individual assistance. Thanks for your comprehension. Happy knitting!

Strikker str M Antall under «Bærestykke» er feil. Ved setting av merker har vi 20+12+40+12+20=104(ikke 112) Etter økning +4x20=80 har vi da 104+80=184(ikke 192) Hva er riktig??

It might be helpful if the questions and answers were translated into English (and those in English translated into German or French). That would make them accessible to more of your fans. Thank you for your consideration.

Hej Drops-team. Når man tager ud til for-og bagstykke, så tager man 2 masker ud (1 efter og 1 før mærket). Når jeg kommer rundt til samme sted på næste pind, så har jeg øget maskeantallet med 2, men mønsteret strækker sig over 4 masker. Hvordan skal de sidste to masker strikkes? Hvis jeg starter med mønsteret straks efter den nye udtagning, så "mangler" jeg to masker til sidst (f.eks. der, hvor man skal strikke første maske vrang og derefter to masker ret sammen).
03.12.2021 - 11:52DROPS Design answered:
Hej Kirsten, du strikker de nye masker ind i mønsteret, men først når du har 2 m glatstrik efter hinanden, kan de strikkes sammen ifølge diagrammet. God fornøjelse!
