EXPLANATIONS FOR THE PATTERN:
-------------------------------------------------------

RIDGE/GARTER STITCH (worked back and forth):
Knit all rows.
1 ridge = knit 2 rows.

PATTERN:
See diagrams A.1 and A.2. The diagrams show all rows in the pattern from the right side.

RAGLAN:
All increases before/after A.1/A.2 (marker-stitch is the middle stitch in A.1/A.2).
Increase for the body before markers 1 and 3 and after markers 2 and 4 when working from the right side and after markers 1 and 3 and before markers 2 and 4 when working from the wrong side.
Increase for the sleeves after markers 1 and 3 and before markers 2 and 4 (always increase from the right side on the sleeves).
Increase 1 stitch by making 1 yarn over.

The yarn overs are worked as follows from the wrong side:
BEFORE MARKER:
Purl the back loop. No hole.
AFTER MARKER:
Slip the yarn-over off the left needle and replace it twisted (insert the left needle from the back when replacing it). Purl the front loop. No hole.

The yarn overs are worked as follows from the right side:
BEFORE MARKER:
Slip the yarn-over off the left needle and replace it twisted (insert the left needle from the back when replacing it). Knit the front loop. The stitch twists to the right. No hole.
AFTER MARKER:
Knit the back loop (the stitch twists to the left). No hole.

DECREASE TIP (for sleeves):
Start 3 stitches 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.

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

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 short circular needle/double pointed needles.

DOUBLE NECK:
Cast on 84-88-92-96-100-104 stitches with DROPS Nepal using short circular needles size 4 and 5 mm held together. Remove the needle size 5 mm keeping the stitches on the needle size 4 mm (this gives you an elastic cast-on edge). Work rib in the round (knit 1, purl 1) for 9 cm.
Fold the neck double to the inside and work 1 more round of rib, working every 2nd stitch together with its corresponding stitch on the cast-on edge.
You now have a double neck.

Insert 4 markers without working the stitches, which are then used when increasing to raglan.
Count 10-12-12-14-14-16 stitches (half back piece), insert marker-1 in the next stitch, count 19 stitches (sleeve), insert marker-2 in the next stitch, count 21-23-25-27-29-31 stitches (front piece), insert marker-3 in the next stitch, count 19 stitches (sleeve), insert marker-4 in the next stitch, there are 11-11-13-13-15-15 stitches left after the last marker (half back piece). Cut the strand.

NECK-LINE:
Change to circular needle size 5 mm. Now work a neck-line with short rows AT THE SAME TIME as increasing for raglan. In addition work A.1 at each marker (marker-stitch is the middle stitch in A.1):
Start from the right side, 2 stitches before marker-3 (front left-hand side of the neck when the garment is worn). Work stocking stitch, A.1 and increase for RAGLAN on both sides of each A.1 – read description above, until you are 2 stitches past marker-2 (front right-hand side of neck and 8 stitches increased).
Turn, tighten the strand and work from the wrong side, increasing for raglan only on the body, to 2 stitches past where the short rows began (4 stitches increased).
Turn, tighten the strand and work from the right side to 2 stitches past where you turned last time – working A.2 over each A.1 and increasing for raglan on both sides of each A.2.
Turn, tighten the strand and work from the wrong side to 2 stitches past where you turned last time, increasing for raglan only on the body.
Cut the strand.

YOKE:
= 116-120-124-128-132-136 stitches. Work in the round over all stitches in the different sizes as follows:

SIZES XS, S, M and L:
Start mid-back, work stocking stitch, A.2, and increase raglan on the body and sleeves (on each side of A.2) every 2nd round 3-3-8-10 times = 140-144-188-208 stitches.
Continue with stocking stitch, A.2 and increase for raglan, but every 2nd increase is only on the body (4 stitches increased); i.e. increase on the body every 2nd round and on the sleeves every 4th round. Increase like this 18-20-16-18 times on the body (9-10-8-9 times on the sleeves). A total of 25-27-28-32 times on the body and 14-15-18-21 times on the sleeves. After the last increase there are 248-264-284-316 stitches. Go to ALL SIZES.

SIZES XL and XXL:
Start mid-back, work stocking stitch, A.2 and continue to increase for raglan every round on the body 2-6 more times and every 2nd round on the sleeves 1-3 times = 144-172 stitches.
Then increase on the body and sleeves (both sides of each A.2) every 2nd round 9-9 times = 216-244 stitches
Continue with stocking stitch, A.2 and increase for raglan, but every 2nd increase is only on the body (4 stitches increased) – increase on the body every 2nd round and on the sleeves every 4th round. Increase like this 20-20 times on the body (10-10 times on the sleeves). A total of 35-39 times on the body and 22-24 times on the sleeves. After the last increase there are 336-364 stitches. Go to ALL SIZES.

ALL SIZES.
= 248-264-284-316-336-364 stitches.
Work stocking stitch and A.2 without further increases until the yoke measures 21-23-25-27-29-31 cm after the neck, measured mid-front.
On the next round divide for the body and sleeves: Work 37-41-42-48-51-57 stitches (half back piece), place the next 49-51-57-63-65-69 stitches on a thread for the sleeve, cast on 6-6-8-8-10-10 stitches (in side under sleeve), work 75-81-85-95-103-113 stitches (front piece), place the next 49-51-57-63-65-69 stitches on a thread for the sleeve, cast on 6-6-8-8-10-10 stitches (in side under sleeve), work 38-40-43-47-52-56 stitches (half back piece).
Finish the body and sleeves separately. The piece is now measured from here!

BODY:
= 162-174-186-206-226-246 stitches. Insert 1 marker in the middle of the new stitches under each sleeve. Allow the markers to follow your work onwards; they are used when working the split in each side.
Work stocking stitch in the round for a further 17 cm.
On the next round divide the piece at both markers, place 81-87-93-103-113-123 stitches between the markers on circular needle size 4 mm and keep the remaining 81-87-93-103-113-123 stitches on the circular needle size 5 mm.
Knit 1 row from the right side and increase 20-20-22-24-24-28 stitches evenly spaced = 101-107-115-127-137-151 stitches.
Work back from the wrong side as follows: 1 stitch in GARTER STITCH – read description above, * purl 1, knit 1 *, work from *-* until there are 2 stitches left, purl 1 and 1 stitch in garter stitch. Continue this rib for 8 cm. Cast off a little loosely with knit over knit and purl over purl.
Place the last 81-87-93-103-113-123 stitches back on circular needle 4 mm and knit 1 row from the right side increasing 20-20-22-24-24-28 stitches evenly spaced = 101-107-115-127-137-151 stitches.
Work rib for 8 cm as for the first piece. Cast off a little loosely with knit over knit and purl over purl. The jumper measures approx. 52-54-56-58-60-62 cm from the shoulder down.

SLEEVES:
Place the 49-51-57-63-65-69 stitches from the thread on the one side of the piece on short circular needle/double pointed needles size 5 mm and knit up 1 stitch in each of the new stitches cast on under the sleeve = 55-57-65-71-75-79 stitches. Insert a marker in the middle of the new stitches under the sleeve. Allow the marker to follow your work onwards; it is used when decreasing under the sleeve.
Work stocking stitch in the round for 4-4-4-3-3-3 cm. Now decrease 2 stitches on each side of the marker – read DECREASE TIP. Decrease like this every 6-6-3½-3-2½-2 cm a total of 6-6-9-11-12-13 times = 43-45-47-49-51-53 stitches. Continue working until the sleeve measures 38-37-35-34-32-30 cm from the division (or to desired length. There is approx. 6 cm left). Knit 1 round and increase 9 stitches evenly spaced = 52-54-56-58-60-62 stitches. Change to double pointed needles size 4 mm and work rib (knit 1, purl 1) for 6 cm. Loosely cast off with knit over knit and purl over purl. The sleeve measures approx. 44-43-41-40-38-36 cm from the division.
Work the other sleeve in the same way.

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

Why is the knitting/crochet tension so important?

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

How do I know how many balls of yarn I need?

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.

Can I use a different yarn than what the pattern suggests?

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?

What are the yarn groups?

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

How do I use the yarn calculator?

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

Why do you show discontinued yarns in the patterns?

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.

What size should I knit?

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

Why do I get the wrong knitting tension with the suggested needle size?

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

Why is the pattern worked top-down?

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.

How do I work according to a knitting diagram?

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

How do I work according to a crochet diagram?

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

How do I work several diagrams simultaneously on the same row/round?

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

Why are the sleeves shorter in larger sizes?

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.

Where on the garment is the length measured?

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

What is a repeat?

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.

Why does the piece start with more chain stitches than it’s worked with?

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.

Why increase before the rib edge when the piece is worked top-down?

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.

Why increase in the cast-off edge?

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)

How do I increase/decrease on every 3rd and 4th row/round alternately?

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

How can I work a jacket in the round instead of back and forth?

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

Can I work a jumper back and forth instead of in the round?

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?

Why is the pattern slightly different than what I see in the photo?

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!

How do I make a women’s size garment into a men’s size one?

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.

How do I prevent a hairy garment from shedding?

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.

Why does my garment pill?

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.

Hello, can you please make some videos specifically for this pattern? The videos do not show how to increase for the body only on the wrong side in the short rows. I’ve torn it out and redone my sweater about 12 times. Also, there seems to be a step missing between the end of the double neck and the neck line (the video shows a setup round where you increase by 8). If you do not do the setup round, you will be missing 8 stitches when you start the yoke.

Que quiere decir que hay que cortar el hilo ? No se sigue tejiendo on misma hebra?

DROPS Design answered:

Hola Marta, sí, se corta el hilo y se reúne en el nuevo comienzo de la vuelta. Generalmente se hace esto cuando tienes que comenzar la vuelta en un punto diferente a dónde dejaste de trabajar; para no desalinear la prenda, se corta el hilo y se une en el sitio necesario para empezar a trabajar la siguiente parte.

Dag Liesbeth,

Er is inderdaad geen filter voor patronen met rechte naalden en Noorse patronen worden veelal van oorsprong met rondbreinaalden gemaakt. Om een patroon aan te passen om op rechte naalden te breien hebben we een instructie gemaakt. Deze vind je hier. Helaas is niet niet voor alle patronen geschikt, maar kijk maar even of je hier wat aan hebt.

Bonjour, je suis en train de tricoter le pull Octobre Breeze 236 14 en taille M. Il me semble impossible d'obtenir le même nombre de mailles que vous pour l'encolure. En additionnant le nombre de jetés cela ne correspond pas. J'obtiens 114 et non 124. Pouvez vous m'aider s'il vous plaît. J'ai refait 5 fois. Un grand merci d'avance. Très cordialement.

Bonjour Mme Marc, en taille L vous commencez l'encolure avec 92 mailles, vous augmentez 2 mailles au 1er rang de A.1 , soit 2 mailles x 4 A.1 = 8 mailles augmentées; vous augmentez en même temps pour le raglan 8 m sur l'endroit et 4 m sur l'envers soit (8+4+8+4=24 m), vous aurez donc: 92+8+24=124 mailles quand les rangs raccourcis de l'encolure sont terminés. Bon tricot!

Bonjour, je tricote la taille m et après avoir fait l'encolure j'obtiens 116 mailles et non 124. 116 mailles correspond aux 92 mailles de départ plus les 24 mailles ajoutées en tricotant l'encolure. Manque t il des rangs pour la rehausse en taille M ? Cordialement.

Bonjour Denise, vous devez augmenter 2 mailles au 1er rang de chaque A.1 en plus des augmentations du raglan, autrement dit, au 1er rang, vous augmentez 8 m (raglan) + 8 m (2 m dans chaque A.1), puis 4 m au 2ème rang, 8 m au 3ème rang et 4 m au 4ème rang = 92+8+8+4+8+4=124 mailles. Bon tricot!

Hi thank you for the pattern, and I love your yarn and everything you do. Can I make a suggestion? In the beginning section when describing raglan, can you change it to make the yarn-overs be called a M1R and M1L stitch? This is what we call it in English. This simple description would have saved me from making holes in the yarn overs. You explained in detail what the yarn overs should look like not to leave a hole but it seemed so complicated I skipped it. When I read it again I realised.

I am working on size m starting with 92 stitches. In the neck line section I worked 4 rows increasing 8/4/8/4 as instructions show. Now I have 116 stitches. The yoke section starts with 124 stitches for size m. What am I doing wrong?

Hej, har gjort halsrigningen ca 6 ggr nu och ger upp för kvällen då det inte blir bra alls/fel antal maskor. Ska jag följa diagrammet från rätsidan enbart? eller både rät- och avigsidan? Blev förvirrad då diagrammet visar instruktioner från både rät/avigsidan samt texten säger annat. Hoppas ni kan hjälpa mig så att jag kan gå vidare.
