------------------------------------------------------- EXPLANATIONS FOR THE PATTERN: ------------------------------------------------------- RIDGE/GARTER STITCH (worked back and forth): Knit all rows. 1 ridge = knit 2 rows. PATTERN: See diagrams A.1 to A.3. The diagrams show all rows in the pattern from the right side. DECREASE TIP (evenly spaced): To work out how to decrease evenly, count the total number of stitches on the needle (e.g. 72 stitches) minus the edge stitches (e.g. 2 stitches) and divide the remaining stitches by the number of decreases to be made (e.g. 8) = 8.8. In this example decrease by alternately knitting together each 7th and 8th stitch and each 8th and 9th stitch (approx.). V-NECK: All decreases are worked from the right side: Decrease before A.2: Knit 2 together (= 1 stitch decreased). Decrease after A.3: Slip 1 stitch as if to knit, knit 1 and pass the slipped stitch over the knitted stitch (= 1 stitch decreased). INCREASE TIP (sleeves): Increase 1 stitch on each side by making 1 yarn over inside the edge stitch. On the next row work the yarn overs twisted to avoid holes. The new stitches are worked in stocking stitch. ------------------------------------------------------- START THE PIECE HERE: ------------------------------------------------------- JUMPER – SHORT OVERVIEW OF THE PIECE: The front and back pieces are worked separately, back and forth with circular needle and bottom up. The sleeves are worked back and forth with circular needle, bottom up. The pieces are sewn together. An i-cord cast-off edge is worked on the back piece to finish. BACK PIECE: Cast on 72-80-84-92-104-112 stitches (including 1 edge stitch on each side) with circular needle size 5.5 mm and DROPS Melody. 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 2 *, work from *-* until there are 3 stitches left, purl 2 and 1 edge stitch in garter stitch. Continue this rib for 4 cm. Knit 1 row from the right side where you decrease 8-10-10-10-14-16 stitches evenly spaced – read DECREASE TIP = 64-70-74-82-90-96 stitches. Change to circular needle size 7 mm. Purl 1 row (edge stitches knitted). Continue with stocking stitch and 1 edge stitch in garter stitch on each side. REMEMBER THE KNITTING TENSION! When the piece measures 32-33-34-35-36-37 cm, cast off for the armholes at the beginning of each row as follows: 3-4-4-5-6-7 stitches 1 time, 2 stitches 1-1-1-2-3-3 times and 1 stitch 1-2-2-2-2-2 times on each side = 52-54-58-60-62-66 stitches. Continue with stocking stitch and 1 edge stitch in garter stitch on each side. When the piece measures 52-54-56-58-60-62 cm place the middle 24-24-24-26-26-26 stitches on a thread for the neck and each shoulder is finished separately. Cast off 1 stitch on the next row from the neck = 13-14-16-16-17-19 stitches on the shoulder. When the piece measures 54-56-58-60-62-64 cm, cast off. Work the other shoulder in the same way. FRONT PIECE: Cast on 72-80-84-92-104-112 stitches (including 1 edge stitch on each side) with circular needle size 5.5 mm and DROPS Melody. Purl 1 row from the wrong side. Then work rib from the right side as follows: 1 edge stitch in garter stitch, * knit 2, purl 2 *, work from *-* until there are 3 stitches left, knit 2, 1 edge stitch in garter stitch. Continue this rib for 4 cm. Knit 1 row from the right side where you decrease 8-10-10-10-14-16 stitches evenly spaced – remember DECREASE TIP = 64-70-74-82-90-96 stitches. Change to circular needle size 7 mm. Purl 1 row (edge stitches knitted). Continue with stocking stitch and 1 edge stitch in garter stitch on each side. When the piece measures 32-33-34-35-36-37 cm, cast off for the armholes at the beginning of each row as follows: 3-4-4-5-6-7 stitches 1 time, 2 stitches 1-1-1-2-3-3 times and 1 stitch 1-2-2-2-2-2 times on each side = 52-54-58-60-62-66 stitches. AT THE SAME TIME when the piece measures 36-37-38-39-40-41 cm, work A.1 over the middle 8 stitches on the row. When row 2 in the diagram has been completed, divide the piece mid-front and finish the left and right front pieces separately. LEFT FRONT PIECE: Work the next row from the right side as follows. Continue casting off for the armhole if you have not finished, work stocking stitch until there are 6 stitches left, decrease 1 stitch for the V-NECK – read description above, work A.2 over the last 4 stitches. When all stitches for armhole are cast off, work with 1 edge stitch in garter stitch towards armhole. Continue the pattern and decrease for the neck every 2nd row (each row from the right side) 10-10-9-10-10-9 times, then every 4th row 0-0-1-1-1-2 times (= 10-10-10-11-11-11 times in total). When all the decreases for the neck and armhole are finished there are 16-17-19-19-20-22 stitches on the shoulder. When the piece measures 54-56-58-60-62-64 cm, place the outermost 3 stitches by the neck on a thread and cast off the other 13-14-16-16-17-19 stitches. RIGHT FRONT PIECE: Work the next row from the right side as follows: A.3 over the first 4 stitches, decrease 1 stitch for the V-NECK – read description above, work stocking stitch to the end of the row – when all stitches for armhole are cast off, continue with 1 edge stitch in garter stitch towards armhole Continue this pattern, casting off any remaining stitches for the armhole if you have not finished and decreasing for the neck every 2nd row (each row from the right side) 10-10-9-10-10-9 times, then every 4th row 0-0-1-1-1-2 times (= 10-10-10-11-11-11 times in total). When all the decreases for the neck and armhole are finished there are 16-17-19-19-20-22 stitches on the shoulder. When the piece measures 54-56-58-60-62-64 cm, place the outermost 3 stitches by the neck on a thread and cast off the other 13-14-16-16-17-19 stitches. SLEEVES: Cast on 42-46-46-50-50-54 stitches (including 1 edge stitch on each side) with circular needle size 5.5 mm and DROPS Melody. Purl 1 row from the wrong side. Then work rib as follows: 1 edge stitch in garter stitch, * knit 2, purl 2 *, work from *-* until there is 1 stitch left, 1 edge stitch in garter stitch. Continue this rib for 4 cm. Knit 1 row from the right side where you decrease 0-3-3-5-3-6 stitches evenly spaced = 42-43-43-45-47-48 stitches. Change to circular needle size 7 mm. Purl 1 row (edge stitches knitted). Continue with stocking stitch and 1 edge stitch in garter stitch on each side. When the sleeve measures 26-21-21-21-18-18 cm, increase 1 stitch inside both edge stitches – read INCREASE TIP. Increase like this every 3-3-2-2-2-1½ cm a total of 6-7-9-9-10-11 times = 54-57-61-63-67-70 stitches. Continue working until the sleeve measures 44-42-41-40-38-36 cm (shorter measurements in larger sizes due to wider shoulders and longer sleeve cap). Now work stocking stitch back and forth for the sleeve cap, casting off at the beginning of each row as follows: 3-4-4-5-6-7 stitches 1 time, 1 stitch 0-0-0-2-4-6 times, 2 stitches 0-3-2-4-3-2 times and 3 stitches 3-1-2-0-0-0 times on both sides = 30-31-33-33-35-36 stitches. Cast off. The sleeve measures approx. 49-49-48-49-49-48 cm. Work the other sleeve in the same way. ASSEMBLY: Sew the shoulder seams with grafting stitches, inside the cast-off edges. Sew the sleeves to the body inside the cast-off edge on the sleeve and the edge stitch on the body. Sew the side seams from the armholes down – sew inside the edge stitches. V-NECK: Knit up from the right side 32 to 34 stitches (including the stitches on the thread) between each shoulder and along the back piece, with circular needle size 5.5 mm and DROPS Melody. Cut the strand. Now work an i-cord-edge as follows: Place the 3 stitches from the thread on the right front piece on circular needle size 5.5 mm. Work i-cord from the right side as follows: Knit 2, knit twisted together the next stitch and the first/next stitch on the back piece. Move the 3 stitches from the right to the left needle (in the same order). Continue like this to the end of the back piece. Cast off the remaining stitches. Sew the last 3 stitches together with the 3 stitches from the thread on the left front piece, using grafting stitches. Cut and fasten the strand. |

En réponse, cela veux dire que les 3 mailles en attente du devant gauche ne sont pas tricotées mais directement cousues ? Décidément j ai du mal à saisir
12.10.2023 - 16:42DROPS Design answered:
Bonjour Claudine, tout à fait, les 3 m du devant gauche vont être cousues aux 3 mailles de la bordure i-cord tricotées à partir du devant droit le long de l'encolure dos. Bon tricot!

En réponse à votre explication , il y a quand même quelque chose qui me chagrine sur l encolure. Il est dit de rabattre les mailles donc logiquement je n ai plus de mailles sur l aiguille de droite. Et on dit de coudre les 3 mailles de gauche en attente. J ai du mal à saisir. Faut il les tricoter aussi pour la bordure ? Je suis perdue
12.10.2023 - 12:02DROPS Design answered:
Bonjour Claudine, vous tricotez une bordure I-cord le long de l'encolure dos, autrement dit, vous tricotez la dernière des 3 mailles de la bordure i-cord avec la maille suivante relevée de l'encolure dos jusqu'à ce que toutes les mailles relevées le long de l'encolure dos aient été tricotées avec la dernière de ces 3 mailles, vous rabattez alors ces 3 dernières mailles et les cousez aux 3 mailles de la fin du devant gauche. Bon tricot!

Bonjour Je ne comprends pas les finitions de l encolure : ‘’Rabattre les mailles restantes. Coudre les 3 dernières mailles ensemble aux 3 mailles en attente du devant gauche.’’ Il me reste donc à droite 3 mailles à droite et à gauche les 3 mailles en attente. Je les couds donc ensemble c est cela.? Comment fait on ? Avez vous une vidéo explicative ? Merci de votre retour
11.10.2023 - 18:10DROPS Design answered:
Bonjour Mme Claudin, c'est tout à fait ça, utilisez par exemple la technique de la couture des épaules (cf vidéo) pour assembler ces 3 mailles des deux devants. Bon tricot!

Bonjour Si j ai bien compris, les manches se tricotent jusqu au bout en aller-retour avec l aiguille circulaire, c est bien cela ? Merci de votre réponse

Ich habe den Pullover in weinrot gestrickt und er siehr fantastisch aus! Leider verstehe ich nicht den letzten Schritt: "Die restlichen Maschen abketten. Die abgeketteten 3 Maschen und die 3 stillgelegten Maschen des linken Vorderteils im Maschenstich zusammennähen". Muss ich so abketten wie im Video des I-cords gezeigt und erst dann verbinden? Ich möchte nichts falsch machen - könnte jemand das anders erklären oder ein Video zeigen?
27.04.2023 - 18:56DROPS Design answered:
Liebe Elisa, in diesem Video zeigen wir, wie man Maschen zusammennähen kann, so können Sie diese 3 Maschen (nach I-cord Abketten) zusammen mit den 3 Maschen (Vorderteil) abketten. Viel Spaß beim fertigstellen!

Hello! the armhole decreases are not quite clear for me. when it says: "at the beginning of each rank, on each side". Does it mean that I have to decrease at the beginning and the end of every rank (front and back), or only at the beginning of each rank (front and back)? Thank you! Josée
19.01.2023 - 15:53DROPS Design answered:
Dear Mrs Laberge, you have to cast off the stitches at the beginning of the rows from right side as well as from wrong side so that you cast off the same number of stitches on each side of the sleeve and then the armhole cast off is symmetrical. Happy knitting!

Bij afwerking, wat wordt er bedoeld met naai de naden dicht aan de binnenkant van de afkantranden ?
28.07.2022 - 16:23DROPS Design answered:
Dag Kathleen,
Hiermee wordt eigenlijk bedoeld dat je naast de afkantrand de naad dicht naait, zodat de afkantrand onzichtbaar wordt. Zie ook deze video:

Als de minderingen voor de V-hals klaar zijn, is er nog een klein stukje voorpand te breien tot de schouder. Brei je dan nog steeds de 4e st vanaf de halsrand averechts (zoals in A2/A3)? Dit staat volgens mij niet met zoveel woorden in het patroon vermeld, maar het lijkt logisch om dit ook het laatste stukje zo te blijven doen? Alvast bedankt!
03.06.2022 - 00:03DROPS Design answered:
Dag Yvonne,
Ja, dat klopt. De 4e steek brei je dan nog steeds averecht, anders verbreek je de rand.
