-------------------------------------------------------

EXPLANATIONS FOR THE PATTERN:

-------------------------------------------------------

INCREASE/DECREASE TIP (evenly spaced):
To work out how to increase/decrease evenly, count the total number of stitches on needle (e.g. 60 stitches), and divide by the number of increases/decreases to be made (e.g. 6) = 10. In this example, increase by making 1 yarn over after each 10th stitch. On the next round knit the yarn overs twisted to avoid holes. When decreasing, knit together each 9th and 10th stitch.

PATTERN:
See diagram A.1. Choose the diagram for your size. The pattern is worked in stocking stitch.

KNITTING TIP:
To avoid the garment losing its elasticity when working pattern, it is important that the strands at the back are not tight. Use a larger size needle when working pattern if the piece becomes tight.

DECREASE TIP-2 (for sleeves): 
Decrease 1 stitch on either side of the marker thread as follows: Work until there are 3 stitches left before the marker thread, 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.

DECREASE TIP-3 (for hat):
Work until there are 2 stitches left before the marker, knit 2 together (= 1 stitch decreased). Repeat at each marker.

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 4th stitch at the same time as casting off; the yarn overs are cast off as normal stitches.

-------------------------------------------------------

START THE PIECE HERE:

-------------------------------------------------------

JUMPER – SHORT OVERVIEW OF THE PIECE:
The neck and yoke are worked in the round with circular needle, from mid back and top down. The yoke is divided for body and sleeves and the body is continued in the round with circular needle. The sleeves are worked with double pointed needles/short circular needle, top down.

NECK:
Cast on 60-64-64-68-68-72-76 stitches with double pointed needles/short circular needle size 4 mm and denim blue DROPS Air. Knit 1 round. Then work rib in the round (knit 2, purl 2) for 3 cm. Change to circular needle size 5 mm.

YOKE:
Insert 1 marker at the beginning of the round; the yoke is measured from this marker! Knit 1 round where you increase 6-8-14-10-16-12-14 stitches evenly spaced – read INCREASE/DECREASE TIP = 66-72-78-78-84-84-90 stitches.
Now work according to diagram A.1 (= 11-12-13-13-14-14-15 repeats of 6 stitches). NOTE! Choose diagram for your size. Read KNITTING TIP!
REMEMBER THE KNITTING TENSION! When A.1 is finished in height there are 176-192-208-208-224-224-240 stitches. Knit 1 round with denim blue where you decrease 4-8-12-8-12-4-8 stitches evenly spaced = 172-184-196-200-212-220-232 stitches.
Continue with stocking stitch and denim blue until the yoke measures 15-15-16-17-18-19-20 cm from the marker.

Now divide for the body and sleeves:
Knit 25-27-29-30-32-33-34 (= half back piece), place the next 36-38-40-40-42-44-48 stitches on 1 thread, cast on 6 stitches (= in side under sleeve), knit 50-54-58-60-64-66-68 (= front piece), place the next 36-38-40-40-42-44-48 stitches on 1 thread, cast on 6 stitches (= in side under sleeve), knit the last 25-27-29-30-32-33-34 stitches (= half back piece). The body and sleeves are finished separately. THE PIECE IS NOW MEASURED FROM HERE!

BODY:
There are now 112-120-128-132-140-144-148 stitches on needle. Continue in the round with stocking stitch and denim blue for 16-20-23-25-26-27-28 cm (or to desired length; there is approx. 3-3-3-4-4-4-4 cm left to finished length). Change to circular needle size 4 mm. Work rib (knit 2, purl 2) for 3-3-3-4-4-4-4 cm. Loosely cast off with knit over knit and purl over purl – read CASTING-OFF TIP. Cut and fasten the strand. The jumper measures approx. 36-40-44-48-50-52-54 cm from the shoulder down.

SLEEVES:
Place the 36-38-40-40-42-44-48 stitches from the thread on the one side of the piece on double pointed needles/short circular needle size 5 mm and knit up 1 stitch in each of the 6 stitches cast on under the sleeve = 42-44-46-46-48-50-54 stitches. Insert a marker thread in the middle of the 6 stitches under the sleeve. Allow the thread to follow your work onwards; it will be used when decreasing under the sleeve.
Start at the marker thread and work stocking stitch in the round, with denim blue, for 3 cm. Now decrease 2 stitches under the sleeve – read DECREASE TIP-2. Decrease like this every 3-5-6-7-8-9-10 cm a total of 4 times = 34-36-38-38-40-42-46 stitches. Continue working until the sleeve measures 15-20-24-26-30-34-37 cm from the division. There is approx. 3-3-3-4-4-4-4 cm left to finished length; try the jumper on and work to desired length. Knit 1 round where you increase 6-4-6-6-4-6-2 stitches evenly spaced = 40-40-44-44-44-48-48 stitches. Change to double pointed needles size 4 mm. Work rib (knit 2, purl 2) for 3-3-3-4-4-4-4 cm. Cast off with knit over knit and purl over purl – remember CASTING-OFF TIP! The sleeve measures approx. 18-23-27-30-34-38-41 cm from the division.
Work the other sleeve in the same way.

-------------------------------------------------------

HAT – SHORT OVERVIEW OF THE PIECE:
The piece is worked with circular needle, in the round and bottom up. Change to double pointed needles when necessary, after decreasing stitches at the top.

HAT:
Cast on 96-100-104-108-112 stitches with circular needle size 3.5 mm and off-white DROPS Air. Purl 1 round. Then work rib in the round (knit 2, purl 2) for 4-5-5-6-6 cm.
Change to circular needle size 4.5 mm and knit 1 round where you decrease 12-12-12-12-12 stitches evenly spaced – read INCREASE/DECREASE TIP = 84-88-92-96-100 stitches.
Change to denim blue and continue with stocking stitch.
REMEMBER THE KNITTING TENSION!
When the piece measures 18-19-19-19-20 cm from the cast-on edge, decrease 0-4-2-0-4 stitches evenly spaced = 84-84-90-96-96 stitches.
Insert 6 markers with 14-14-15-16-16 stitches between each one. On the next round decrease 1 stitch before each marker – read DECREASE TIP-2 (= 6 stitches decreased). Decrease like this every 2nd round a total of 2-2-2-3-3 times. Then every 6th-7th-7th-7th-7th round 10-10-11-11-11 times = 12 stitches.
Work until the hat measures 50-52-54-56-58 cm, then knit all stitches together 2 and 2 = 6 stitches.
Cut the strand and pull it through the remaining stitches, tighten and fasten well.

POM-POM:
Make a pom-pom of 5 cm in diameter with off-white. Sew it to the top of the hat.

Do you have a question? See a list of frequently asked questions (FAQ)

Knitting tension is what determines the final measurements of your work, and is usually measured per 10 x 10 cm. It is provided like so: number of stitches in width x number of rows in height - eg: 19 stitches x 26 rows = 10 x 10 cm.

The knitting tension is very individual; some people knit/crochet loosely while others work tightly. You adjust the knitting tension with the needle size, which is why the suggested needle size is only meant as a guide! You need to adjust this (up or down) to ensure that YOUR knitting tension matches the knitting tension provided in the pattern. If you work with a different knitting tension than provided you will have a different yarn consumption, and your work will have different measurements than what the pattern suggests.

The knitting tension also determines which yarns can replace each other. As long as you achieve the same knitting tension you can replace one yarn with another.

See DROPS lesson: How to measure your tension/gauge

See DROPS video: How to make a gauge tension swatch

The required amount of yarn is provided in grams, eg: 450 g. To calculate how many balls you’ll need you first need to know how many grams are in 1 ball (25g, 50g or 100g). This information is available if you click on the individual yarn quality on our pages. Divide the amount required with the amount of each ball. For example, if each ball is 50g (the most common amount), the calculation will be as follows: 450 / 50 = 9 balls.

The important thing when changing from one yarn to another is that the knitting/crochet tension remains the same. This is so that the measurements of the finished piece will be the same as on the sketch provided. It is easier to achieve the same knitting tension using yarns from the same yarn group. It is also possible to work with multiple strands of a thinner yarn to achieve the knitting tension of a thicker one. Please try our yarn converter. We recommend you to always work a test swatch.

Please NOTE: when changing yarn the garment might have a different look and feel to the garment in the photo, due to individual properties and qualities of each yarn.

See DROPS lesson: Can I use a different yarn than the one mentioned in the pattern?

All our yarns are categorised into yarn groups (from A to F) according to thickness and knitting tension – group A contains the thinnest yarns and group F the thickest. This makes it easier for you to find alternative yarns to our patterns, should you wish to switch yarn. All yarns within the same group have a similar knitting tension and can easily replace each other. However, different yarn qualities have different structures and properties which will give the finished work a unique look and feel.

Click here for an overview of the yarns in each yarn group

At the top of all our patterns you’ll find a link to our yarn calculator, which is a helpful tool should you wish to use a different yarn than suggested. By filling in the yarn quality you wish to replace, the amount (in your size) and number of strands, the calculator will present good alternative yarns with the same knitting tension. Additionally it will tell you how much you’ll require in the new qualities and whether you’ll need to work with multiple strands. Most skeins are 50g (some are 25g or 100g).

If the pattern is worked with multiple colours, every colour will have to be calculated separately. Similarly, if the pattern is worked with several strands of different yarns (for example 1 strand Alpaca and 1 strand Kid-Silk) you will have to find alternatives for each, individually.

Click here to see our yarn calculator

Since different yarns have different qualities and textures we have chosen to keep the original yarn in our patterns. However, you can easily find options among our available qualities by using our yarn calculator, or simply pick a yarn from the same yarn group.

It is possible that some retailers still have discontinued yarns in stock, or that someone has a few skeins at home that they would like to find patterns for.

The yarn calculator will provide both alternative yarn as well as required amount in the new quality.

If you think it's hard to decide what size to make, it can be a good idea to measure a garment you own already and like the size of. Then you can pick the size by comparing those measures with the ones available in the pattern's size chart.

You'll find the size chart at the bottom of the pattern.

See DROPS lesson: How to read size chart

The needle size provided in the pattern serves only as a guide, the important thing is to follow the knitting tension. And since knitting tension is very individual, you will have to adjust the needle size to ensure that YOUR tension is the same as in the pattern – maybe you’ll have to adjust 1, or even 2 needle sizes, up or down to achieve the correct tension. For this, we recommend that you work test swatches.

Should you work with a different knitting tension than the one provided, the measurements of the finished garment might deviate from the measurement sketch.

See DROPS lesson: How to measure your tension/gauge

See DROPS video: How to make a tension/gauge swatch

Working a garment top-down provides more flexibility and room for personal adjustment. For example it is easier to try the garment on while working, as well as making adjustments to length of yoke and shoulder caps.

The instructions are carefully explaining every step, in the correct order. Diagrams are adjusted to the knitting direction and are worked as usual.

The diagram depicts all rows/rounds, and every stitch seen from the right side. It is read from bottom to top, from right to left. 1 square = 1 stitch.

When working back and forth, every other row is worked from the right side and every other row is worked from the wrong side. When working from the wrong side, the diagram will have to be worked reversed: from left to right, knit stitches are purled, purl stitches are knit etc.

When working in the round every round is worked from the right side and the diagram are worked from right to left on all rounds.

See DROPS lesson: How to read knitting diagrams

The diagram depicts all rows/rounds, and every stitch seen from the right side. It is worked from bottom to top, from right to left.

When working back and forth every other row is worked from the right side: from right to left and every other row is worked from the wrong side: from left to right.

When working in the round, every row in the diagram are worked from the right side, from right to left.

When working a circular diagram you start in the middle and work your way outwards, counter clockwise, row by row.

The rows usually start with a given number of chain stitches (equivalent to the height of the following stitch), this will either be depicted in the diagram or explained in the pattern.

See DROPS lesson: How to read crochet diagrams

Instructions for working several diagrams after each other on the same row/round, will often be written like so: “work A.1, A.2, A.3 a total of 0-0-2-3-4 times". This means you work A.1 once, then A.2 is worked once, and A.3 is repeated (in width) the number of times provided for your size – in this case like so: S = 0 times, M = 0 times, L=2 times, XL= 3 times and XXL = 4 times.

The diagrams are worked as usual: begin with the first row in A.1, then work the first row in A.2 etc.

See DROPS lesson: How to read knitting diagrams

See DROPS lesson: How to read crochet diagrams

The total width of the garment (from wrist-to-wrist) will be larger in the larger sizes, despite the actual sleeves being shorter. The larger sizes have longer sleeve caps and wider shoulders, so there will be a good fit in all sizes.

The measurement sketch/schematic drawing provides information regarding the full length of the garment. If it’s a jumper or a jacket the length is measured from the highest point on the shoulder closest to the neckline, and straight down to the bottom of the garment. It is NOT measured from the tip of shoulder. Similarly, the length of yoke is measured from the highest point on the shoulder and down to where yoke is split into body and sleeves.

On a jacket measures are never taken along bands, unless specifically stated. Always measure inside band stitches when measuring the length.

See DROPS lesson: How to read a schematic drawing

Diagrams are often repeated on the round or in height. 1 repeat is the diagram the way it appears in the pattern. If it says to work 5 repeats of A.1 in the round, then you work A.1 a total of 5 times after/next to each other in the round. If it says to work 2 repeats of A.1 vertically/in height you work the entire diagram once, then begin again at the start and work the entire diagram one more time.

Chain stitches are slightly narrower than other stitches and to avoid working the cast-on edge too tight, we simply chain more stitches to begin with. The stitch count will be adjusted on the following row to fit the pattern and measurement sketch.

The rib edge is more elastic and will contract slightly compared to, for example, stocking stitch. By increasing before the rib edge, you avoid a visible difference in width between the rib edge and the rest of the body.

It’s very easy to cast off too tightly, and by making yarn overs while casting off (and simultaneously casting these off) you avoid a too tight cast off edge.

See DROPS video: How to bind off with yarn overs (yo)

To achieve an even increase (or decrease) you can increase on, for example: every 3rd and 4th row alternately, like so: work 2 rows and increase on the 3rd row, work 3 rows and increase on the 4th. Repeat this until the increase is complete.

See DROPS lesson: Increase or decrease 1 st on every 3rd and 4th row alternately

Should you prefer to work in the round instead of back and forth, you may of course adjust the pattern. You’ll need to add steeks mid-front (usually 5 stitches), and follow the instructions. When you would normally turn and work from the wrong side, simply work across the steek and continue in the round. At the end you’ll cut the piece open, pick up stitches to work bands, and cover the cut edges.

See DROPS video: How to knit steeks and cut open

Should you prefer to work back and forth instead of in the round, you may of course adjust the pattern so you work the pieces separately and then assemble them at the end. Divide the stitches for the body in 2, add 1 edge stitch in each side (for sewing) and work the front and back pieces separately.

See DROPS lesson: Can I adapt a pattern for circular needles into straight needles?

Pattern repeats can vary slightly in the different sizes, in order to get the correct proportions. If you’re not working the exact same size as the garment in the photo, yours might deviate slightly. This has been carefully developed and adjusted so that the complete impression of the garment is the same in all sizes.

Make sure to follow instructions and diagrams for your size!

If you have found a pattern you like which is available in women’s size it’s not very difficult to convert it to men’s size. The biggest difference will be the length of sleeves and body. Start working on the women size that you think would fit across the chest. The additional length will be worked right before you cast off for the armhole/sleeve cap. If the pattern is worked top-down you can add the length right after the armhole or before the first decrease on sleeve.

Regarding additional yarn amount, this will depend on how much length you add, but it is better with a skein too many than too few.

All yarns will have excess fibres (from production) that might come off as lint or shedding. Brushed yarns (ie hairier yarns) have more of these loose, excess fibres, causing more shedding.

Shedding also depends on what is worn under or over the garment, and whether this pulls at the yarn fibres. It’s therefore not possible to guarantee that there will be no shedding

Below are some tips on how to get the best result when working with hairier yarns:

1. When the garment is finished (before you wash it) shake it vigorously so the looser hairs come off. NOTE: do NOT use a lint roller, brush or any method that pulls at the yarn.

2. Place the garment in a plastic bag and put it in your freezer - the temperature will cause the fibres to become less attached to each other, and excess fibres will come off easier.

3. Leave in the freezer for a few hours before taking it out and shaking it again.

4. Wash the garment according to the instructions on the yarn label.

Pilling is a natural process that happens to even the most exclusive of fibers. It's a natural sign of wear and tear that is hard to avoid, and that is most visible in high friction areas of your garment like a sweater's arms and cuffs.

You can make your garment look as new by removing the pilling, using a fabric comb or a pill/lint remover.

Still can't find the answer you need? Then scroll down and leave your question so one of our experts can try to help you. This will be done normally within 5 to 10 working days.

Sur ce modèle et d'après mon échantillon, j'ai 84 mailles après les 12 d'augmentation. Je dois faire le diagramme A1, bon d'accord. Mais il manque un texte, car je me retrouve d'après vos indications avec 224 mailles, mais comment faire? Je suis bloquée dans un pull pour ma petite fille. Il doit être fini pour le 24 décembre! C'est la première fois que j'achète sur votre site, mais je suis un peu perdue... merci de m'aider.

Bonjour Mme Thelin, vous tricotez la 5ème taille soit 9/10 ans, correct? Vous allez donc tricoter 14 fois A.1 tout le tour (14 x 6 mailles au 1er tour= 84 mailles), vous allez augmenter comme indiqué dans le diagramme (en faisant 1 jeté alternativement au début /à la fin de chaque A.1, jeté tricoté torse au tour suivant); Quand A.1 est terminé, vous avez 16 m dans chaque A.1 x 14 motifs = 224 mailles. Bon tricot!

Gracias por su contestacion pero aun me quedan dudas. 1. El ancho total del cuello son 18 cm o 36 cm? 2. El ancho del cuerpo (espalda + delantero) son 44 o 88 cm? 3. Al salirme que tengo que montar más puntos, cómo los reparto en el diagrama A1 del dibujo. Gracias

DROPS Design answered:

Hola Teresa, puedes ver en el diagrama las medidas de la mitad del contorno de las diferentes partes del cuerpo. 18 cm es la mitad del cuello; el contorno del cuello es 36 cm. El contorno del cuerpo es 88 cm. Puedes aumentar el número de pts para montar, asegurándose de aumentar una cantidad de pts que sea múltiple de 6 (añadiendo 1 o más repeticiones de A.1). Puedes montar más puntos desde el cuello o puedes aumentar los puntos después de trabajar el cuello y al comenzar el canesú, para que el cuello no quede demasiado ancho.

En el modelo merry stars la medida del cuerpo para talla 13/14 es 88 cm (44x2) cierto? Es que si hago el calculo con la muestra que dicen de 18 puntos por 10 cm serian 82 cm para 148 puntos que quedan despues de separar las mangas. Tengo que adaptar mi muestra (22 puntos x 10 cm) y voy comprobando todos los calculos. No puedo hacerlo con agujas del 5 que sí me dan los 18 puntos pero queda el punto demasiado abierto. Gracias

DROPS Design answered:

Hola Teresa, tu tensión es algo más prieta que la utilizada en el patrón ( 17pts = 10cm), por lo que, si estás trabajando con el mismo hilo, vas a tener que cambiar los cálculos del patrón para alcanzar las medidas del diagrama.

Vous pouvez ensuite tricoter sur circulaire, en magic loop ou sur 3 ou 4 aiguilles doubles pointes au choix et en fonction de la taille. Bon tricot!

I am starting the Merry Stars pattern 41-4 and I am confused with the different needles. If I’m making the sweater for 7-9 child, do I need the 4mm 40cm and 5mm 40cm or is just 4mm 60cm and 5mm 60cm? I will be using 4 and 5mm (80cm) for the magic loop instead of double pointed needles. Thank you, I love the Drops Air.

Dear Elisabeth, if you will work magic loop, you then only need circular needles 80 cm in both sizes 4 mm and 5 mm. Happy knitting!

Die Mengenangaben stimmen leider nicht. Für die Größe 9/10 sind 200 g angegeben, was aber nicht ausreicht. Ich muss für das zweite Ärmelbündchen daher extra noch einen Knäuel nachbestellen, was ärgerlich ist.
