------------------------------------------------------- EXPLANATIONS FOR THE PATTERN: ------------------------------------------------------- RIDGE/GARTER STITCH (worked in the round): 1 ridge in height = 2 rounds; Knit 1 round and purl 1 round. RIDGE/GARTER STITCH (worked back and forth): Knit all rows. 1 ridge = knit 2 rows. PATTERN: See diagrams A.1 to A.5. The diagrams show all rows in the pattern from the right side. DECREASE TIP (for sleeves): Start 3 stitches left before the marker, knit 2 together, knit 2 (marker sits between these 2 stitches), slip 1 stitch as if to knit, knit 1 and pass the slipped stitch over the knitted stitch. BUTTONHOLES: (if you work a split mid-back). Work the buttonholes at the beginning of the row from the right side as follows: Knit 2 make 1 yarn over and knit the next 2 stitches together. On the next row (wrong side) knit the yarn over to leave a hole. The first buttonhole is worked when the neck measures 1½ cm = ½", the other 2 buttonholes are worked with (2½) 2½-3-3-4 (4) cm = (1") 1"-1⅛"-1⅛"-1½" (1½") between each one. ------------------------------------------------------- START THE PIECE HERE: ------------------------------------------------------- SWEATER – SHORT OVERVIEW OF THE PIECE: The neck and yoke are worked in the round with circular needle, from mid back and top down. If you work a split mid-back, you start the piece working back and forth before it is joined and continued in the round. 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. SWEATER WITHOUT SPLIT MID-BACK: Cast on (52) 56-60-64-68 (72) stitches with short circular needle size 3 MM = US 2.5 and DROPS Sky. Knit 1 round. Then work rib (knit 1, purl 1) for (2) 2-3-3-4 (4) cm = (3/4") ¾"-1⅛"-1⅛"-1½" (1½"). On the next round increase every other purl-1 to purl-2 by making 1 yarn over (on the next round purl the yarn overs twisted to avoid holes) = (13) 14-15-16-17 (18) increased stitches and (65) 70-75-80-85 (90) stitches. Continue the new rib until the neck measures (3) 3-4-4-5 (5) cm = (1⅛") 1⅛"-1½"-1½"-2" (2"). Insert 1 marker at the beginning of the round; the yoke is measured from this marker. Change to circular needle size 4 MM = US 6. Work 1 RIDGE over all stitches – read description above. AT THE SAME TIME on the first round adjust the number of stitches to (64) 68-76-80-84 (88) stitches. After the ridge work the next round as follows: * A.1, A.2 *, work from *-* to the end of the round = (96) 102-114-120-126 (132) stitches. Complete A.1 and A.2, then continue with knit 3 / purl 3 until the yoke measures (4) 5-5-5-6 (6) cm = (1½") 2"-2"-2"-2⅜" (2⅜") from the marker on the neck. Work the next round as follows: SIZE (<0): * A.3, A.4 *, work from *-* to the end of the round. SIZES 0/1 – 1/3 – 6/9 – 12/18 months (2 years): * A.3, A.5 *, work from *-* to the end of the round. After the first round, there are (128) 153-171-180-189 (198) stitches. Complete A.3 and A.4/A.5, then continue with knit 5 / purl 3 in size (<0) and knit 5 / purl 4 in the other sizes and until the yoke measures (8) 10-10-10-12 (12) cm = (3⅛") 4"-4"-4"-4¾" (4¾") from the marker. Continue from SWEATER below. SWEATER WITH SPLIT MID-BACK: Cast on (57) 61-65-69-73 (77) stitches with short circular needle size 3 MM = US 2.5 and DROPS Sky. Purl 1 row from the wrong side. Then work the next row as follows (from mid-back): 4 stitches in GARTER STITCH – read description above, * knit 1, purl 1 *, work from *-* until there are 5 stitches left, knit 1 and 4 stitches in garter stitch. Continue this rib for (2) 2-3-3-4 (4) cm = (3/4") ¾"-1⅛"-1⅛"-1½" (1½") – remember the BUTTONHOLES on the band – read description above. On the next row from the right side increase every other purl-1 to purl 2 by making 1 yarn over (on the next row knit the yarn overs twisted to avoid holes) = (12) 13-14-15-16 (17) stitches increased and (69) 74-79-84-89 (94) stitches. Continue the new rib until the neck measures (3) 3-4-4-5 (5) cm = (1⅛") 1⅛"-1½"-1½"-2" (2"). Insert 1 marker after the band; the yoke is measured from this marker! Change to circular needle size 4 MM = US 6. Work 1 ridge over all stitches – AT THE SAME TIME on the first row increase (1) 0-3-2-1 (0) stitches evenly spaced = (70) 74-82-86-90 (94) stitches. After the ridge, work the next row as follows from the right side: 4 stitches in garter stitch, * A.1, A.2 *, work from *-* until there are 6 stitches left, A.1 and 4 stitches in garter stitch = (101) 107-119-125-131 (137) stitches. Complete A.1 and A.2, then continue with knit 3 /purl 3 until the yoke measures (4) 5-5-5-6 (6) cm = (1½") 2"-2"-2"-2⅜" (2⅜") from the marker on the neck. Now join the piece as follows: Lay the button-band at the beginning of the row on top of the 4 last stitches, so that the band with the buttonholes are on the top. Knit the stitches from both bands together 2 and 2 (= 4 stitches decreased) = (97) 103-115-121-127 (133) stitches. Then continue the rest of the round as follows (after the 4 band stitches): SIZE (<0): * A.3, A.4 *, work from *-* until there are 3 stitches left before the band, work A.3, purl 2 (the first 2 stitches on band). SIZES 0/1 – 1/3 – 6/9 – 12/18 months (2 years): * A.3, A.5 *, work from *-* until there are 3 stitches left before the band, work A.3, purl 2 (the first 2 stitches on band). The round now begins in the middle of the 4 band stitches and after the first round, there are (129) 153-171-180-189 (198) stitches. Complete A.3 and A.4/A.5 (the 4 band stitches are now worked as shown in A.4), then continue with knit 5 / purl 3 over the other stitches in size (<0) and knit 5 / purl 4 in the other sizes and until the yoke measures (8) 10-10-10-12 (12) cm = (3⅛") 4"-4"-4"-4¾" (4¾") from the marker. Continue from SWEATER below. SWEATER: Knit 1 round and adjust the number of stitches to (132) 152-164-180-184 (200) stitches. Purl 1 round. Continue with stockinette stitch until the yoke measures (10) 11-12-12-13 (14) cm = (4") 4⅜"-4¾"-4¾"-5⅛" (5½") from the marker. On the next round divide for the body and sleeves as follows from mid-back: Work the first (18) 21-23-25-26 (29) stitches, place the next (30) 34-36-40-40 (42) stitches on a thread for the sleeve, cast on (4) 4-6-6-8 (8) stitches (in side under sleeve), work (36) 42-46-50-52 (58) stitches, place the next (30) 34-36-40-40 (42) stitches on a thread for the sleeve, cast on (4) 4-6-6-8 (8) stitches (in side under sleeve), work the last (18) 21-23-25-26 (29) stitches. The body and sleeves are finished separately. The piece is now measured from here! BODY: = (80) 92-104-112-120 (132) stitches. Continue with stockinette stitch in the round for a further (6) 9-12-12-15 (16) cm = (2⅜") 3½"-4¾"-4¾"-6" (6¼"). Knit 1 round where you increase (12) 14-16-16-18 (20) stitches evenly spaced = (92) 106-120-128-138 (152) stitches. Change to circular needle size 3 MM = US 2.5. Work rib (knit 1, purl 1) for (2) 2-2-3-3 (3) cm = (3/4") ¾"-¾"-1⅛"-1⅛" (1⅛"). Bind off a little loosely. The sweater measures approx. (20) 24-28-30-34 (36) cm = (8") 9½"-11"-11¾"-13⅜" (14¼") from the shoulder down SLEEVES: Place the (30) 34-36-40-40 (42) stitches from the thread on the one side of the piece on double pointed needles size 4 MM = US 6 and knit up 1 stitch in each of the (4) 4-6-6-8 (8) stitches cast on under the sleeve = (34) 38-42-46-48 (50) stitches. Insert a marker in the middle of the (4) 4-6-6-8 (8) stitches under the sleeve. Start at the marker and work stockinette stitch in the round for 1 cm = ⅜". Now decrease 2 stitches under the sleeve (does not apply to sizes <0 and 0/1 month) – read DECREASE TIP. Decrease like this every 4th round a total of (0) 0-1-1-1 (2) times = (34) 38-40-44-46 (46) stitches. Continue working until the sleeve measures (5) 8-10-13-15 (19) cm = (2") 3⅛"-4"-5⅛"-6" (7½") from the division. There is approx. (2) 2-2-3-3 (3) cm = (3/4") ¾"-¾"-1⅛"-1⅛" (1⅛") to finished length; try the sweater on and work to desired length. Knit 1 round where you decrease (0) 0-0-4-4 (2) stitches evenly spaced = (34) 38-40-40-42 (44) stitches. Change to double pointed needles size 3 MM = US 2.5 and work rib (knit 1, purl 1) for (2) 2-2-3-3 (3) cm = (3/4") ¾"-¾"-1⅛"-1⅛" (1⅛"). Bind off a little loosely The sleeve measures approx. (7) 10-12-16-18 (22) cm = (2¾") 4"-4¾"-6¼"-7" (8¾") from the division. Work the other sleeve in the same way. ASSEMBLY: If you have worked a split mid-back, sew the buttons onto the band without the buttonholes. |

Sweet gleam 6/9 maanden heeft 100 gram garen nodig, terwijl Dream in blue en Drops baby 2-10 beiden voor 6/9 maanden 200 gram garen rekenen. Ze zitten alle drie in dezelfde garen groep. Is deze 100 gram correct?

Dag Quirien,
Ja dat klopt, want DROPS Sky is heel licht garen, waardoor je minder grammage nodig hebt. (Het gaat uiteindelijk om de totale looplengte van het garen.)

A la fin du col je ne comprends pas comment on pass de 84 à 126 mailles Pull sans ouverture au milieu
01.03.2024 - 15:23DROPS Design answered:
Bonjour Calendra, vous allez augmenter comme indiqué dans les diagrammes A.1 et A.2 (1 maille au 1er tour de chaque diagramme), autrement dit, vous tricotez 21 fois (A.1,A.2) tout le tour, vous allez donc augmenter 21 fois 2 mailles au 1er tour = 84+42= 126 mailles. Bon tricot!

What's the yarn weight?
22.01.2024 - 21:52Jennifer wrote:
Hello, I don't understand the point of increasing every other purl-1 to purl-2 by making 1 yarn over. I knitted a jumper without split mid-back and cast on 72 stitches. There are 36 purl stitches, so if I finish the increase, are there 36 increased stitches?
14.01.2024 - 13:44DROPS Design answered:
Dear Jennifer, it's every other (= alternate) purl-1 to purl-2. Therefore, you should have alternate sections of k1,p1 and k1,p2. For example: knit 1, purl 1, knit 1, purl 2, knit 1, purl 1, knit 1, purl 2..... So you increase not in each of the 36 purl stitches but in half of them (= 18 stitches). This will slightly increase the number of stitches in the neck to better shape the neck and get closer to the stitches for the rest of the piece. Happy knitting!

Bonjour Marie, vous devez répéter les indications entre les *, autrement dit, vous tricotez *le diagramme A.3 (= 3 mailles + 2 jetés au 2er rang), puis le diagramme A.5 (=3 mailles + 1 jeté au 1er rang)*, et vous répétez de *à* tout le tour, autrement dit, vous tricotez alternativement A.3 et A.5. Après le 1er rang, vous avez des côtes 5 mailles endroit/4 mailles envers et continuez ainsi en côtes jusqu'à la hauteur indiquée pour la taille tricotée. Bon tricot!

Synes bærestykket er alt for bredt, i forhold til bluse, jeg skulle tage 32 masker ind, før start på bluse. Så ikke en god opskrift, efter min mening.

Hej June, ja hvis du ikke har 180 masker, skal de justeres til 180 masker på første omgang ret :)
