------------------------------------------------------- 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 and A.2. Choose diagram for your size (applies to A.2). The diagrams show all rows in the pattern from the right side. MOSS STITCH: ROW 1: * Knit 1, purl 1 *, work from *-*. ROW 2: Purl over knit and knit over purl Repeat row 2. INCREASE TIP (for sleeves): Increase on the inside of the edge stitch. All increases are worked from the right side! Increase 1 stitch by making 1 yarn over. On the next row work the yarn over twisted to avoid a hole. Then work the new stitch into A.1. BUTTONHOLES: Work buttonholes on the right band from the right side. 1 BUTTONHOLE = knit the third and fourth stitch from the edge together and make 1 yarn over. On the next row knit the yarn over to leave a hole. Work the buttonholes when the piece measures: S: 2, 11, 20 and 29 cm M: 2, 12, 21 and 31 cm L: 2, 10, 18, 26 and 34 cm XL: 2, 10, 19, 27 and 36 cm XXL: 2, 10, 19, 27 and 36 cm XXXL: 2, 11, 20, 29 and 38 cm NOTE: The last buttonhole, which is not described here, is worked on the neck. CASTING-OFF TIP: To avoid the cast-off edge being tight you can cast off with a larger size needle. If the edge is still tight, make 1 yarn over after approx. each 6th stitch at the same time as casting off; the yarn overs are cast off as normal stitches. ------------------------------------------------------- START THE PIECE HERE: ------------------------------------------------------- JACKET – SHORT OVERVIEW OF THE PIECE: The piece is worked in sections, back and forth with circular needle and bottom up. The piece is sewn together and a ribbed neck is worked to finish. BACK PIECE: Cast on 101-113-119-131-143-155 stitches (including 1 edge stitch on each side) with circular needle size 3 mm and Cotton Light or Sky. Purl 1 row (= wrong side). The next row is worked as follows from the right side: 1 edge stitch in GARTER STITCH – read description above, * knit 1, purl 1 *, work from *-* until there are 2 stitches left, knit 1 and 1 edge stitch in garter stitch. Continue this rib for 2 cm. Change to circular needle size 4 mm and work 2 rows of stocking stitch with 1 edge stitch in garter stitch on each side. Continue as follows from the right side: 1 edge stitch in garter stitch, work A.1 until there are 4 stitches left on the row (= 16-18-19-21-23-25 repeats of 6 stitches), work the first 3 stitches in A.1 so the pattern is symmetrical and finish with 1 edge stitch in garter stitch. Continue this pattern. REMEMBER THE KNITTING TENSION! When the piece measures 26-27-28-29-30-31 cm, cast off for the armholes at the beginning of each row as follows: Cast off 3 stitches 1-1-1-1-2-2 times, 2 stitches 0-1-1-3-3-4 times and 1 stitch 2-4-5-5-6-8 times on each side = 91-95-99-103-107-111 stitches.

Then work rib (knit 1, purl 1) with 1 edge stitch in garter stitch on each side for 2 cm. Change to circular needle size 4 mm.

When the sleeve measures 45-44-44-43-41-40 cm (shorter measurements in larger sizes due to longer sleeve cap and broader shoulders), cast off for the sleeve cap at the beginning of each row as follows: Cast off 3 stitches 1-1-1-1-2-2 times, 2 stitches 2-2-2-3-3-3 times and 1 stitch 2-4-4-4-6-7 times on each side. Then cast off 2 stitches on each side until the sleeve measures 50 cm in all sizes. Cast off 3 stitches 1 time on each side. Then cast off the remaining stitches. The sleeve measures approx. 51 cm from the top down in all sizes. Work the other sleeve in the same way. ASSEMBLY: Sew the shoulder seams inside the cast-off edges. Sew the sleeves to the body, inside the 1 edge stitch on the body. Sew the sleeve and side seams in one go, inside the 1 edge stitch. NECK: Start from the right side and knit up 101 to 115 stitches around the neck (including the stitches from the threads in front) with circular needle size 3 mm and Cotton Light or Sky – the number of stitches should be divisible by 2 + 1. The first row is worked as follows from the wrong side: 5 band stitches in moss stitch, * purl 1, knit 1 *, work from *-* until there are 6 stitches left, purl 1 and finish with 5 band stitches in moss stitch. Continue this rib for 3 cm, but after 1 cm work the last buttonhole on the right band. When the neck is finished, cast off with knit over knit and purl over purl – read CASTING-OFF TIP! Sew the buttons onto the left band. |

Je trouve que vous avez de très beaux modèles, mais serait-ce possible d'avoir les explications de ce patron en tricotant avec des aiguilles régulières et non des aiguilles circulaires. Je trouve les patrons difficiles à comprendre avec des aiguilles circulaires, et moi de dois adapter les patrons en fonction de ma petite taille et je suis très à l'aise avec des aiguilles régulières.

Bonjour Mme Cloutier, en Scandinavie, les aiguilles circulaires sont très courantes, même pour tricoter en rangs, cette leçon vous permettra de pouvoir adapter nos modèles si besoin. Bon tricot!
