K 3 rows back and forth, then bind off. How do i join the Right Front Piece Neck Edge to the Back Piece Neck Edge? Thank you.

Dear Barbara, you don't work the neck edge in the back piece; you have already worked it before. When working the front neck edges you join them to the back piece by sewing. Happy knitting!

How do you incorporate the extra 34 stitches at the back into the pattern…. When the stitch repeat is 9 stitches ie; 34 is not divisible by 9. Thank you
07.11.2023 - 12:42DROPS Design answered:
Dear Barbara, you will now work the edge stitches on each front piece and the 34 new stitches in M.1 = 36 sts / 9 = 4 repeats, ie work 3 edge stitches in garter stitch, repeat M.1 until 3 sts remain and end with 3 edge stitches in garter stitch. Happy knitting!

Right Front Piece.\\r\\nThe instruction says \\\"Then bind off at beg of every row from mid front: 2 sts 2 times and 1 st 4 times = 49-58-58-67 sts remain on shoulder.\\\"\\r\\nDoes that mean bind off every row or every 2nd row?
17.06.2023 - 14:05DROPS Design answered:
Dear Barb, it means to bind off on every row that starts from the mid front (so technically it would be every other/2nd row). Happy knitting!

Hello. I cannot see anywhere on this pattern where it mentions the gauge ? Regards, Barbara

Dear Barbara, you will find the tension in the upper part of the pattern together with the sizes, yarn and amount of yarn and needle size + buttons. Happy knitting!

Comment faire les diminutions d'encolure devant avec le point ajouré qui tombe en même temps ? Je n'y arrive pas en tricotant le point ajouré jusqu'au bout du rang car ça fait des trous et avec les diminutions de l'encolure ça ne va pas. Merci par avance de votre réponse.

Hi, I'm currently working on size S right side and I'm a little con fused with how to finish the piece. It says to "put it to one side", should I cast off or slip the stitches onto holders?
23.03.2023 - 10:27DROPS Design answered:
Dear Yonnie, at the end of right front piece, slip the stitches on a thread, on a separate needle or on a stitch holder. Work now left front piece, when you are done with left front piece, cut the yarn. You will now work back piece top down starting from wrong side with right front piece, casting on new stitches for neck and working left front piece. Happy knitting!

Bonjour, Je ne comprends pas ce que signifient * et la fléche sur le coté du diagramme M1. Merci de me renseigner.
25.03.2021 - 08:27DROPS Design answered:
Bonjour Mme Meyer, l'étoile sera utilisée lorsque vous tricoterez le dos (vous terminerez le dernier M.1 par le rang avec cette étoile); la flèche est elle utilisée pour les devants; vous ajusterez la hauteur indiquée de sorte que le dernier rang tricoté soit celui avec la flèche. Vous retrouverez toutes ces indications dans les explications; elles auront probablement plus de sens dans leur contexte. Bon tricot!

My qiuestion is above from yesterday 9/30. The size is small!
01.10.2020 - 18:44DROPS Design answered:
Dear Rebecca, you will work 4 repeats of the diagram over the 36 sts = 1 edge st from front piece + 34 new stitches cast on for neck +1 edge st from front piece = you have enough stitches for 4 repeats of 9 stitches. Happy knitting!

There is no way to come out even on the pattern after joining the back 34 stitches to front/sleeve sections. I have been sweating over this for over two weeks, have taken it out many times. It just won't work, and I can't come out even, using the 3 stitches each side for fronts.

Dear Rebecca, could you please tell which size you are working on?

Knitted DROPS jacket with short sleeves and lace pattern in ”Cotton Light” or "Belle". Size: S - XXXL
DROPS 136-6 |

PATTERN: See diagrams M.1 and M.2 – diagrams show pattern from RS. 1 diagram = 1 repetition = 9 sts in width. Work front piece as follows (from bottom up): Diagram M.1: 2-2-3-3 times, diagram M.2: 1 time, diagram M.1: 1 time, diagram M.2: 1 time and diagram M.1: 2 times. Work back piece as follows (top down): Diagram M.1: 2 times, diagram M.2: 1 time, diagram M.1: 1 time, diagram M.2: 1 time and diagram M.1: 2-2-3-3 times. GARTER ST (back and forth on needle): K all rows. -------------------------------------------------------- JACKET: First work right front piece and inc for sleeve, then work left front piece and sleeve, then slip these tog and work down back piece. Worked back and forth on a circular needle to make room for all the sts. RIGHT FRONT PIECE: Cast on 49-58-67-76 sts (incl 1 edge st in the side and 3 band sts towards mid front) on needle size 4 mm with Cotton Light or Belle. K 4 rows (1st row = WS), then P 1 row from WS. Work next row as follows: 3 band sts in GARTER ST - see explanation above, PATTERN - see explanation above - until 1 edge st remains, work this in garter st. Continue like this. REMEMBER THE KNITTING TENSION! At the same time when piece measures 26-26-27-27 cm, cast on 20-20-11-11 new sts for sleeve at the end of next row towards the side (fewer sts in the larger sizes because of broader shoulder width) = 69-78-78-87 sts. READ ALL OF THE FOLLOWING SECTION BEFORE CONTINUING! Work sleeve sts in pattern but work the outermost 3 sts in garter st. AT THE SAME TIME when piece measures 27-27-29-29 cm, cast off for 1 button hole by K tog 2nd and 3rd st from edge and then making 1 YO. Repeat cast off for button hole when piece measures 30-30-32-32 cm. When piece measures 31-31-33-33 cm, slip the outermost 12 sts towards mid front on a stitch holder for neck. Then cast off at beg of every row from mid front: 2 sts 2 times and 1 st 4 times = 49-58-58-67 sts remain on shoulder. Continue to work as before with 1 st towards mid front in garter st until piece measures approx. 46-46-51-51 cm - adjust so that last row is worked from RS and is the row marked with an arrow in diagram M.1. Now insert a marker (= mid on top shoulder). NOW MEASURE PIECE FROM HERE! Work the 2 next to last rows in diagram M.1, put piece aside. LEFT FRONT PIECE: Cast on and work as right piece but reversed. NOTE: Do not cast off for button hole. BACK PIECE: 1st row = WS (= last row in diagram M.1). Work sts from right front piece on to circular needle size 4 mm, cast on 34 new sts (= back of neck) and work sts from left front piece on to circular needle = 132-150-150-168 sts in total. Continue with PATTERN as explained above, but work 4 rows in garter st over the 34 new sts before they are also included into pattern! When piece measures 20-20-24-24 cm from marker on shoulder, cast off the 20-20-11-11 sleeve sts in each side (cast off at beg of the next 2 rows) = 92-110-128-146 sts remain on needle. Continue the pattern with 1 edge st in garter st in each side. When working diagram M.1 for the last time, finish with the row marked with a star. Piece now measures approx. 45-45-50-50 cm from marker on shoulder. Now K 3 rows (1st row = WS). Then LOOSELY cast off with K from RS – NOTE: It is important to avoid a tight cast off edge. NECK EDGE: Knit up approx. 38-41 sts (from RS, incl sts on stitch holders) on circular needle size 4 mm along neckline of RIGHT FRONT PIECE until begin of BACK PIECE (= the 34 new stitches in garter st) . K 3 rows back and forth, then cast off. Repeat along LEFT FRONT PIECE. ASSEMBLY: Sew sleeve and side seams in one inside 1 edge st. Sew on buttons. |

Hallo, ik ben dit leuke vestje aan het breien en heb een vraag over de mouw. Ik moet voor mijn maat maar 11 steken erbij opzetten. Worden de mouwen dan niet erg kort in verhouding tot de 20 steken die je erbij opzet voor de kleinere maten? Vr. Groeten Gerda
