------------------------------------------------------- EXPLANATIONS FOR THE PATTERN: ------------------------------------------------------- RIDGE/GARTER STITCH (worked back and forth): Knit all rows. 1 ridge in height = Knit 2 rows. PATTERN: See diagrams A.1 to A.3. Choose diagram for your size (applies to A.3). The diagrams show all rows in the pattern seen from the right side. DECREASE TIP-1 (evenly spaced): To work out how to decrease evenly, count the total number of stitches on needle (e.g. 100 stitches) and divide by number of decreases to be made (e.g. 11) = 9.09. In this example decrease by knitting approx. each 8th and 9th stitch together. INCREASE TIP: All increases are worked from the right side. Increase by making 1 yarn over on the inside of the 1 edge stitch on each side of the piece (= 2 stitches increased). On the next row the yarn overs are purled twisted. 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 and the yarn overs are bind off as normal stitches. ------------------------------------------------------- START THE PIECE HERE: ------------------------------------------------------- SWEATER – SHORT OVERVIEW OF THE PIECE:. The front and back pieces are worked separately back and forth with circular needle. Stiches are bind off for the armholes and neck and each shoulder is finished separately. The sleeves are worked back and forth with circular needle. The neck is worked after the garment has been sewn together. BACK PIECE: Cast on 88-94-100-106-115-124 stitches (including 1 edge stitch on each side of the piece) with circular needle size 4.5 mm = US 7 and Air. Purl 1 row from the wrong side. Then work rib from the right side as follows: 1 edge stitch in GARTER STITCH – read description above, * purl 2, knit 1 *, work from *-* until there are 3 stitches left, purl 2 and finish with 1 edge stitch in garter stitch. When the rib measures 5 cm = 2", knit 1 row from the right side where you decrease 11-11-11-11-12-11 stitches evenly spaced – read DECREASE TIP = 77-83-89-95-103-113 stitches. Purl 1 row from the wrong side. Change to circular needle size 5.5 mm = US 9. Work stockinette stitch with 1 edge stitch in garter stitch on each side of the piece. REMEMBER THE KNITTING GAUGE! When the piece measures 30-31-32-33-34-35 cm = 11¾"-12¼"-12½"-13"-13⅜"-13¾" from the cast-on edge, bind off 4-4-4-5-6-6 stitches at the beginning of the next 2 rows for the armholes = 69-75-81-85-91-101 stitches. Continue with stockinette stitch and 1 edge stitch in garter stitch on each side. When the piece measures 41-43-45-47-49-51 cm = 16⅛"-17"-17¾"-17¾"-19¼"-20", place the middle 37-37-39-39-41-41 stitches on a thread for the neck, on the next row from the right side, and each shoulder is finished separately = 16-19-21-23-25-30 stitches on each shoulder. RIGHT SHOULDER: Continue with stockinette stitch and 1 edge stitch in garter stitch on each side. Bind off on every row from the neck (i.e. at the beginning of each row from the wrong side) as follows: Bind off 1 stitch 2 times = 14-17-19-21-23-28 stitches. Bind off with knit from the right side when the piece measures 48-50-52-54-56-58 cm = 19"-19¾"-20½"-21¼"-22"-22¾" from the cast-on edge. LEFT SHOULDER: Work as for the right shoulder but when binding off for the neck, bind off at the beginning of each row from the right side. FRONT PIECE: Cast on 87-93-99-105-114-123 stitches (including 1 edge stitch on each side of the piece) with circular needle size 4.5 mm = US 7 and Air. Purl 1 row from the wrong side. Then work rib from the right side as follows: 1 edge stitch in garter stitch, knit 1, * purl 2, knit 1 *, work from *-* until there is 1 stitch left and finish with 1 edge stitch in garter stitch. When the rib measures 5 cm = 2", knit 1 row from the right side and decrease 10-10-10-10-11-10 stitches evenly spaced = 77-83-89-95-103-113 stitches. Purl 1 row from the wrong side. Change to circular needle size 5.5 mm = US 9. Then continue with pattern as follows: Work 1 edge stitch in garter stitch, 0-3-6-9-9-14 stitches in stockinette stitch, A.1 (= 11 stitches), A.2 (= 10 stitches), A.3 (= 33-33-33-33-41-41 stitches), A.2 over 10 stitches, A.1 over 11 stitches, 0-3-6-9-9-14 stitches in stockinette stitch and 1 edge stitch in garter stitch. When the piece measures 30-31-32-33-34-35 cm = 11¾"-12¼"-12½"-13"-13⅜"-13¾" from the cast-on edge, decrease 4-4-4-5-6-6 stitches at the beginning of the next 2 rows for the armholes = 69-75-81-85-91-101 stitches. Continue with the pattern as before with the outermost stitch on each side worked in garter stitch. When the piece measures 38-39-41-42-43-44 cm = 15"-15¼"-15¾"-16½"-17"-17¼", (finish neatly in relation to the pattern), place the middle 33-33-33-33-41-41 stitches on a thread for the neck on the next row from the right side and each shoulder is finished separately = 18-21-24-26-25-30 stitches on each shoulder. RIGHT SHOULDER: Continue with stockinette stitch, A.1 and A.2 as before and the outermost stitch on each side worked in garter stitch. Bind off on each row from the neck (i.e. the beginning of each row from the right side) as follows: Bind off 2 stitches 1-1-1-1-0-0 time, then 1 stitch 2-2-3-3-2-2 times = 14-17-19-21-23-28 stitches. In sizes XS-S-M-L stop working pattern A.2; continue with purl over purl and stockinette stitch over the other stitches. In sizes XL-XXL continue the pattern as before. The outermost stitch on each side is worked in garter stitch. Bind off with knit from the right side when the piece measures 48-50-52-54-56-58 cm = 19"-19¾"-20½"-21¼"-22"-22¾" from the cast-on edge. LEFT SHOULDER: Work as for the right shoulder but when binding off stitches for the neck, bind off at the beginning of each row from the wrong side. SLEEVE: Cast on 35-35-38-38-41-41 stitches (including 1 edge stitch in garter stitch on each side) with circular needle size 4.5 mm = US 7 and Air. Purl 1 row from the wrong side. Then work as follows from the right side: Work 1 edge stitch in garter stitch, * purl 2, knit 1 *, work from *-* until there is 1 stitch left and finish with 1 edge stitch in garter stitch. When the rib measures 5 cm = 2", knit 1 row from the right side and increase as follows: Work 1 edge stitch in garter stitch, knit 4-3-4-4-6-5, * 1 yarn over, knit 1 *, work from *-* until there are 5-4-5-5-7-6 stitches left, knit 4-3-4-4-6-5 and finish with 1 edge stitch in garter stitch = 60-62-66-66-68-70 stitches. Purl 1 row from the wrong side. Change to circular needle size 5.5 mm = US 9. Continue with pattern as follows: 1 edge stitch in garter stitch, 24-25-27-27-28-29 stitches in stockinette stitch, A.2 over the next 10 stitches, 24-25-27-27-28-29 stitches in stockinette stitch and 1 edge stitch in garter stitch. Repeat A.2 in height. When the sleeve measures 10 cm = 4", increase 0-0-0-1-1-1 stitch inside the 1 edge stitch on each side of the piece – read INCREASE TIP. Increase like this every 8 cm = 3⅛" a total of 0-0-0-2-2-3 times = 60-62-66-70-72-76 stitches. When the sleeve measures 47-47-47-46-44-42 cm = 18½"-18½"-18½"-18"-17¼"-16½" from the cast-on edge, insert 1 marker inside the 1 edge stitch at the beginning of the row – it marks the bottom of the armhole. Work until the sleeve measures 50-50-50-49-48-46 cm = 19¾"-19¾"-19¾"-19¼"-19"-18". Bind off – read BINDING-OFF TIP! Work the other sleeve in the same way. ASSEMBLY: Sew the shoulder seams inside the bind-off edge. Sew the sleeve seams but leave a split of 3-3-3-3-4-4 cm = 1⅛"-1⅛"-1⅛"-1⅛"-1½"-1½" at the top (i.e. from the marker). Sew the split to the bottom of the armhole and then sew the sleeves into the body. Sew the side seams inside the 1 edge stitch. NECK: Start on the one shoulder and knit up 75 to 96 stitches around the neck (number of stitches must be divisible by 3) with short circular needle size 4.5 mm = US 7 and Air. Make sure the neck is neither tight nor loose in relation to the neck-line. Work rib in the round (= knit 1, purl 2) for 4 cm = 1½". Bind off with knit. |

Can you please explain why the suggested method here is to knit parts separately? For me it`s much easier to knit circular, devide the work on two pieces and close armholes stitches at the same time. It minimize a number of operations and seems convinient. Thank you for the answer!

Dear Kate, some people do rather work separate pieces that are sewn together, so that we can have something for everyone - feel free to adapt the pattern if you like to. Happy knitting!

Hei kan dere legge ut hjelpevideo som tar for seg hvert tegn i diagrammaet, så det blir demonstrert hvordan vært tegn skal strikkes? Det ville være god hjelp! For det andre dere har lagt ut er desverre ikke nok hjelp. Håper raskt svar tilbake😊

Hej Christina, det er samme teknikker som går igen, prøv at få hjælp hos din lokale DROPS butik, så er vi sikker på at du kan strikke alle fine hulmønstre fremover. Vi har jo masser af videoer som indeholder disse tegn og som viser hvordan man strikker efter diagram. God fornøjelse!

Hola tendrán un video que explique como se tejen los 3 puntos en el mismo punto, del diagrama A1. O me pueden explicar como se hace el tercero? Ya que el primero es de derecho, el segundo es una lazada, entonces el tercero se saca igual que el primero o por atrás del punto.
26.06.2020 - 07:59DROPS Design answered:
Hola Celina. De momento no hay un video para trabajar este diagrama. Los tres puntos se trabajan como sigue: 1 derecho como siempre, una lazada y 1 derecho de la misma manera que el primer derecho. De este modo sale un ojal para el dibujo de calados.

Det står att man ska sticka upp 75-96 maskor runt halsen till halskant. Men jag har ju redan 70 maskor på tråd på fram/bakstycket. Det blir ju bara 5 maskor extra, det kan ju inte stämma. Jag stickar storlek S. Eller ska jag sticka ihop maskor av dem jag har på tråd så det blir 75 maskor totalt?
04.05.2020 - 15:25DROPS Design answered:
Hej Barbro om du stickar upp fler maskor till halskant, så kan du minska jämnt fördelat till önskat halsringning på första varvet. Lycka till :)

Hallo Stimmen die cm Angaben des Vorderteils xxl? Nach 35 cm die Ärmel,ok. Aber nach 44 cm die Halsausschnitt? Am Diagramm ist der Pullover 58 cm lang?
13.04.2020 - 11:08DROPS Design answered:
Liebe Frau Schmidt, die Angaben stimmen, aber gerne können Sie einpaar mehr cm in der Höhe stricken, wenn Sie die Halsausschnitt so weit möchten. Viel Spaß beim stricken!

I am quite a beginner so this might be a silly question ... but how can the front and back both be some with circular needles, because if they are both circular how do you attach them??
12.04.2020 - 23:02DROPS Design answered:
Dear Abbie, the sweater is knitted in pieces wich are sewn together at the end. We are using circulars because the high number of stitches fit better on them, and also they are easier to move around. happy Knitting!

Ska jag BÖRJA med TVÅ räta innan resåren ? Visst ska kanterna vara lika? Och baksidan avslutas med TRE maskor???? Det gäller xl
30.03.2020 - 15:20DROPS Design answered:
Hej Är det resåren på bakstycket du ska börja med? Resåren är 2 avigmaskor och 1 rätmaska (med kantmaskor i rätstickning) både på framstycket och bakstycket. Mvh DROPS Design

Très joli tricot, qui va entrer en concurrence avec le modèle Berry Diamond sur lequel j'avais flashé. Je ne ferai certes pas les manches aussi larges, il y a trop de risques de s'accrocher partout, dans les poignées de portes, par exemple.
