----------------------------------------------------------
JACKET:
Worked back and forth on circular needle.
Beg on front piece, cast on sts for sleeve and work up to the shoulder. Knit the other front piece, place both front pieces tog and work down the back piece.

LEFT FRONT PIECE:
Read all of the following section before continuing!
Cast on 43-47-51 (56-59) sts (includes 1 edge st in the side and 24-24-26 (28-28) band sts towards mid front) on needle size 2.5 mm / US 1or2 with Baby Merino. Work 6 rows in GARTER ST - see explanation above. Switch to circular needle size 3 mm / US 2or3 and work in stockinette st but continue to work the 24-24-26 (28-28) band sts towards mid front in Garter st.
When piece measures 4 cm / 1½'', work SHORT ROWS - see explanation above (1st row = from WS). Repeat from *-* 1 time every 4 cm / 1½'' until piece measures 19-21-24 (27-30) cm / 7½"-8 1/4"-9½" (10 5/8"-11 3/4"), then repeat from *-* 1 time every 2 cm / 3/4'' until finished measurements.
AT THE SAME TIME when piece measures 16-17-20 (23-25) cm / 6¼''-6¾''-8'' (9''-9¾''), cast on new sts at the end of every row from WS (towards the side of sleeve): 6 sts 2-2-3 (3-3) times, 8 sts 1-1-1 (2-3) times and 21-22-22 (25-26) sts 1 time = 84-89-99 (115-127) sts for shoulder/sleeve. Work inc sts in stockinette st.
When all sts have been cast on, continue in stockinette st and Garter st as before while AT THE SAME TIME also working the outermost 10 sts on sleeve in garter st. When piece measures 27-29-33 (37-40) cm / 10 5/8''-11 3/8''-13'' (14½''-15¾''), insert a marker = mid on top of shoulder.
Now slip the 24-24-26 (28-28) band sts towards mid front on a stitch holder. Then cast on 2 new sts at the end of row from RS (towards neck), repeat inc on next row towards neck = 64-69-77 (91-103) sts on needle. Work 1 row from WS.
Put all sts on a stitch holder.

RIGHT FRONT PIECE:
Cast on and work as left front piece but reversed. In addition bind off for BUTTON HOLES on band - see explanation above. NOTE! Slip sts on a stitch holder after the last row with inc (i.e. last row = from WS).

BACK PIECE:
Work left front piece on to circular needle, cast on 16-16-18 (20-20) new sts (= back of neck) and work right front piece on to circular needle = 144-154-172 (202-226) sts.
NOW MEASURE PIECE FROM MARKERS ON SHOULDERS.
Continue in stockinette st and Garter st at the end on each sleeve back and forth on needle.
When piece measures 8½-9½-10 (10-11) cm / 3 1/4"-3 3/4"-4" (4"-4 3/8"), beg to bind off sleeve sts.
Bind off at beg of every row in each side as follows: 21-22-22 (25-26) sts 1 time, 8 sts 1-1-1 (2-3) times and 6 sts 2-2-3 (3-3) times = 62-70-76 (84-90) sts on needle. Continue in stockinette st with 1 edge st in garter st each side.
When piece measures approx. 26-28-32 (36-39) cm / 10 1/4"-11"-12½" (14 1/4"-15 1/4") – fold the piece double at the markers on shoulders and make sure that the back piece is as long as front piece down to rows in garter st, switch to needle size 2.5 mm / US 1or2 and work 6 rows in garter st, then bind off.

ASSEMBLY:
Sew the sleeve and side seams inside 1 edge st. Sew on buttons.

HOOD:
Knit up approx. 102-106-112 (118-122) sts (including sts from stitch holders at the front – NOTE: If more/fewer sts have been knitted up, dec/inc evenly on 1st row.
Continue in garter st over all sts while AT THE SAME TIME working short rows in each side every 2 cm / 3/4'' – SEE EXPLANATION ABOVE.
Bind off when hood measures approx. 21-23-25 (27-28) cm / 8 1/4"-9"-9 3/4" (10 5/8"-11"). Sew hood neatly tog at the top - sew in outer loop of edge st to avoid a chunky seam.

CROCHET BORDER:
Crochet a border around the entire jacket.
Beg at the bottom on right front piece and crochet with 2 strands yellow Baby Merino and hook size 3 mm / C as follows:
Work 1 sc, * ch 3, 1 dc in 1st ch, skip approx. ½ cm / 1/4'', 1 sc in next st *, repeat from *-*. Crochet the same way around the openings on sleeves.
-----------------------------------------------------------

BOOTEE:
The bootee is worked back and forth from mid back. Cast on 48-52-56 (56) sts on needle size 2.5 mm / US 1or2 with 2 strands yellow Baby Merino. Remove 1 strand and work rib (= K 2/P 2) for 5-6-6 (7) cm / 2"-2 3/8"-2 3/8" (2 3/4") – adjust so that next row is worked from WS. P 1 row from WS while at the same time dec 14-14-18 (14) sts evenly = 34-38-38 (42) sts. On next row work eyelet row as follows from RS: K 1, *K 2 tog, 1 YO *, repeat from *-* and finish with K 1. P 1 row from WS. Now slip the outermost 12-13-13 (15) sts in each side on a stitch holder.
Work 4-4½-5½ (6½) cm / 1½"-1 3/4"-2 1/4" (2½") in stockinette st over the middle 10-12-12 (12) sts.
Slip sts from stitch holders back on needle and knit up 10-11-13 (16) sts on each side of mid piece = 54-60-64 (74) sts on needle.
K every row over all sts for 3-4-5 (5) cm / 1 1/8"-1½"-2" (2") while at the same time after 1½-2-2½ (3) cm / ½"-3/4"-7/8" (1 1/8"), start dec on every other row as follows until completed: Dec 1 st at the beg and the end of row and K 2 tog on each side of the 2 mid sts.
bind off and sew tog mid under foot and continue up mid back in outer loop of edge sts to avoid a chunky seam.
Knit another bootee the same way.

TIES:
Cut 3 strands light yellow of approx. 1 meter / 1.1 yds each, twine them tightly tog, fold them double and they will twine again, tie a knot in each end. Thread tie up and down through the eyelet row on bootee.

CROCHET BORDER:
Crochet a border at the top of bootee on hook size 2 mm/US B with light yellow as follows: 1 sc in first st, * ch 3, 1 dc in 1st ch, skip approx. ½ cm / 1/4'', 1 sc in next st *, repeat from *-* and finish with 1 sl st in sc from beg of round.

1) 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 only serve 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

2) 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

to top

3) 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?

to top

4) How do I use the yarn converter?

At the top of all our patterns you’ll find a link to our yarn converter, 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 converter 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 converted 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 converter

to top

5) 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 gauge tension swatch

to top

6) 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.

to top

7) 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.

to top

8) 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.

to top

9) 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

to top

10) 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

to top

11) 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

to top

12) 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.

to top

13) 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.

to top

14) 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)

to top

15) 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

to top

16) 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!

to top

17) 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

to top

18) 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?

to top

19) 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 converter, 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 converter will provide both alternative yarn as well as required amount in the new quality.

to top

20) 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.

to top

21) 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.

to top

22) 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 (usually 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.

See DROPS lesson: How to read a schematic drawing

to top

23) 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.

Ho realizzato il cardigan e le scarpine per una bimba di pochi mesi, seguendo le istruzioni, e il risultato è veramente bello. Per quanto abbia tenuto ben stretto il filo, purtroppo i buchi ai giri di ritorno con i ferri accorciati sono molto visibili, e un po' rovinano l'estetica del cardigan. Apprezzo comunque la morbidezza che il capo ha acquistato proprio con la tecnica dei ferri accorciati,darebbe bello trovare una soluzione all'inconveniente. Grazie

I understand to continue working band, centre panel in garter stitch, and outer section in stockinette, but it says *...., work 2 rows in garter st only over the outermost 12-12-13 (14-14) sts. I think hey should be stockinette. Work 13 Sts then turn etc. Please clarify. Thank you

DROPS Design answered:

Happy knitting!

"Maska av när huvan mäter ca 21 cm" Var ska jag mäta? Mitt bak eller längs huvans sida? Verkar kunna bli väldigt stor om man ska mäta bak i nacken.

Angående min fråga för en stund sedan. NU ser jag vad jag har gjort för fel.Beskrivningen säger ju att det är de 12 yttersta maskorna på den rätstickade framkanten! Jag har fattat helt fel!

När jag stickar bakstycket ska det stickas tills det mäter 26 cm och kontrollera att det blir lika långt som framstycket när man sedan stickar de 6 avslutande varven. Men jag har fått framstyckets sida (slätstickade partiet) mycket längre än framstyckets sida p.g.a. de förkortade varven på de yttersta 12 maskorna. Hur ska man sy ihop sidostyckena? Har jag stickat fel?

Hei Kerstin. Så bra at du fant ut av det. Håper du da fikk strikker mer i helgen. mvh DROPS Design

Not exactly sure where mid on top of shoulder is to place a marker. Thanks for info in advance.

DROPS Design answered:

Dear Vickey, the mid on top of the shoulder would be the uppermost point in the sleeve, opposite to the center under the sleeve. Happy knitting!

Bonjour, je suis à la première partie, taille 0/3, à 27cm. Je dois faire des augmentations pour l’encolure, 2 à la fois, jusqu’à avoir 64 mailles. Mais j’ai déjà 84 m (celles du devenant et celles de la manche). Voulez-vous dire que je dois faire 11 aug. de 2 m afin d’avoir 42 m (celles du devant) + 22 m d’aug.?

DROPS Design answered:

Bonjour Patricia, quand le devant gauche mesure 27 cm (n'oubliez pas de placer votre marqueur en haut de l'épaule), tricotez les 24 premières mailles sur l'envers et glissez-les en attente sur un fil = il reste 60 mailles sur l'aiguille, tricotez le rang jusqu'à la fin, tournez et tricotez le rang suivant sur l'endroit en montant 2 m à la fin de ce rang = 62 m, tricotez les 62 m sur l'envers, tournez et tricotez ces 62 m sur l'endroit et montez 2 m à la fin de ce rang = 64 m pour l'épaule/manche, tournez, tricotez ces 64 m sur l'envers et mettez ces mailles en attente. Bon tricot!

Salve, dove esattamente andrebbe posizionato il marcapunti del centro in alto della spalla quando il lavoro misura 33 cm (taglia 12-18 mesi)?

DROPS Design answered:

Buongiorno Sara, è un segnapunti per prendere le misure, lo può inserire dove preferisce, l'importante è che sia a 33 cm. Buon lavoro!
