I don't understand how much yarn required. Surely if you're using the thinner yarn (brushed alpaca silk) which requires 2 strands, you would need twice as much as if you're using the other one yet it seems to be the other way about but the pattern seems to call for the opposite - just to confirm if I was knitting size small with 2 strands of alpaca/silk would I need 6 balls of 25g each?

Dear Freddie, read more here how to calculate amount of yarn when working with 2 strands of yarn or with 1 strand of yarn. Happy knitting!

I am not sure what size to knit. I am usually a Medium but not sure how much ease is calculated into the pattern. I usually knit on the loose size. My bust in inches is 37.

Dear Stacy, you will find at the bottom of the pattern a measurement chart with all measurements in cm for each size. Compare these to a similar garment you have and like the shape to find out the matching size. Read more about this here. Convert into cm here. Happy knitting!

Jeg er begyndt at strikke modellen, men efter afslutning af A1 er længden ikke som angivet 19 cm, men derimod 27 cm. 14 masker i bredden måler 10 cm. Hvordan kan det gå til? Og hvad kan jeg gøre? I øvrigt var jeg nødt til at slå ekstra masker op i starten og gøre dem MEGET løse, for at trøjen kan komme over hovedet.

Hej Tine, Hvilket garn strikker du i? Kan du evt strikke lidt løst så 14 m fylder mere end de 10 cm vi har som strikkefasthed?

Bonjour, j'ai commencé à tricoter ce magnifique pull, mais les 58 mailles du début ne me permettent pas de passer la tête, qui n'est pas si grosse que cela :-) ... Pour les modèles tricotés de bas en haut, il est demandé de relever en général une centaine de mailles pour le col, soit quasiment le double. N'y aurait-il pas une petite erreur de chiffres ?
20.11.2015 - 19:13DROPS Design answered:
Bonjour Isabelle, pensez à bien vérifier votre tension et veillez à ce que le rang de montage ne soit pas trop serré. Le nombre de mailles semble correct et correspondre au schéma. Vous pouvez toutefois monter davantage de mailles si vous le souhaiter et réduire ensuite le nbe de diminution au 1er tour end avec les aiguilles 7 pour continuer avec le bon nombre de mailles. Bon tricot!

Jeg er ved at strikke denne model. Der er en fejl i mønster A.2 sidste pind. På fotoet ser det jo ud til at mønstret er spejlet, og i så fald skal sidste pind/9. pind se således ud: XXXOXXXO Håber, I er enige 😉

Bonjour, Désireuse de tricoter vos modèles, notamment pulls et gilets, j'aimerais juste savoir à quoi correspondent vos tailles du S au XXXL. Merci beaucoup.

Bonjour Mme Boutet, vous trouverez à la fin de chaque modèle un schéma avec les mesures pour chaque taille. Comparez ces mesures à un vêtement analogue que vous avez et dont vous aimez la forme pour trouver la taille idéale. Bon tricot!

Knitted DROPS jumper with round yoke and Nordic pattern, worked top down in 2 strands ”Brushed Alpaca Silk” or 1 strand “Melody”. Size: S - XXXL.
DROPS 164-45 |
||||||||||||||||||||||
GARTER ST (worked in the round): * K 1 round and P 1 round *, repeat from *-*. 1 ridge = 2 rounds. PATTERN: Work diagram A.1 and A.2 (choose diagram for correct size and beg on round marked with arrow for correct size). Work entire pattern in stockinette st in 2 strands Brushed Alpaca Silk (= BAS) or 1 strand Melody (= M). KNITTING TIP: To avoid the knitting gauge to tighten when working pattern on yoke, it is important not to tighten the strands on back side of piece. Switch to a higher needle no when working pattern if the pattern is somewhat tight. INCREASE TIP-1: Inc 1 st by making 1 YO. On next round K YO twisted to avoid holes. INCREASE TIP-2: To calculate how often inc should be done on a increase round, use the total no of sts on needle (e.g. 54 sts) and divide by no of inc to be done (e.g. 12 sts) = 4.5. I.e. in this example inc after alternately every 4th and 5th st. DECREASE TIP: Dec on each side of marker as follows: Beg 2 sts before marker, K 2 tog, slip 1 st as if to K, K 1, psso (= 2 sts dec). ---------------------------------------------------------- JUMPER: Worked in the round on circular needle from top down. YOKE: Cast on 54-54-58-58-62-62 sts on circular needle size 6 mm / US 10 with 2 strands Brushed Alpaca Silk or 1 strand off white Melody. Work 2 ridges in GARTER ST - see explanation above. Switch to circular needle size 7 mm / US 10.75 and K 1 round while inc 12-18-14-17-13-16 sts evenly - READ INCREASE TIP-1 AND INCREASE TIP-2 = 66-72-72-75-75-78 sts. Then work pattern according to diagram A.1 (choose diagram for correct size = 22-24-24-25-25-26 repetitions of 3 sts). READ KNITTING TIP and inc as shown in diagram = 88-96-96-100-100-104 sts on needle. REMEMBER THE KNITTING TENSION/GAUGE Continue to inc as follows: On round marked with arrow-1 in diagram inc 30-34-38-46-50-54 sts evenly - remember INCREASE TIP-2 = 118-130-134-146-150-158 sts. On round marked with arrow-2 in diagram inc 30-30-34-34-38-38 sts evenly = 148-160-168-180-188-196 sts. On round marked with arrow-3 in diagram inc 20-20-24-24-28-32 sts evenly = 168-180-192-204-216-228 sts. On round marked with arrow-4 in diagram inc 12-12-16-20-24-24 sts evenly = 180-192-208-224-240-252 sts. On round marked with arrow-5 in diagram inc 10-10-14-10-14-14 sts evenly = 190-202-222-234-254-266 sts. When A.1 has been worked, piece measures approx. 19-21-21-22-23-23 cm / 7½"-8 1/4"-8 1/4"-8 3/4"-9"-9" from cast-on edge. Work next round as follows with 2 strands gray Brushed Alpaca Silk or 1 strand gray Melody: K 54-58-66-72-80-84 (= back piece), slip the next 41-43-45-45-47-49 sts on 1 stitch holder (= sleeve), cast on 6-6-6-8-8-8 new sts (= under sleeve), K 54-58-66-72-80-84 (= front piece), slip the next 41-43-45-45-47-49 sts on 1 stitch holder (= sleeve), cast on 6-6-6-8-8-8 sts (= under sleeve). BODY: = 120-128-144-160-176-184 sts. Insert 1 marker in piece, NOW MEASURE PIECE FROM HERE. K 1 round with gray. Then work pattern in the round according to diagram A.2 (= 15-16-18-20-22-23 repetitions of 8 sts). When A.2 has been worked 1 time vertically, work in stockinette st with gray until finished measurements (with 2 strands Brushed Alpaca Silk/1 strand Melody). Work until piece measures 35-35-37-38-39-41 cm / 13 3/4"-13 3/4"-14½"-15"-15 1/4"-16 1/8''. Approx. 2 cm / 3/4'' remain until finished measurements, try the jumper on for desired length. Switch to circular needle size 6 mm / US 10. Work 4 ridges and LOOSELY bind off. Jumper measures approx. 56-58-60-62-64-66 cm / 22''-22¾''-23 5/8''-24 3/8''-25¼''-26'' from shoulder. SLEEVE: Worked in the round on double pointed needles. Slip sts from stitch holder in one side of piece on double pointed needles size 7 mm / US 10.75. K 1 round with gray and cast on 6-6-6-8-8-8 new sts at the end of round = 47-49-51-53-55-57 sts. Insert 1 marker in the middle of the 6-6-6-8-8-8 new sts (= mid under sleeve) and insert 1 marker in the middle st on round (= mid on top of sleeve) – NOW MEASURE PIECE FROM HERE. Work pattern in the round according to diagram A.2 (st with star in diagram should fit with st with marker mid on top of sleeve – count outwards from where round beg). When piece measures 2-2-3-3-4-4 cm / ¾''-¾''-1 1/8''-1 1/8''1½''-1½'', dec on each side of marker mid under sleeve - READ DECREASE TIP (= 2 sts dec). Repeat dec every 5½-5-4-4-3½-3½ cm / 2 1/4"-2"-1½"-1½"-1 1/4"-1 1/4'' a total of 7-8-9-9-10-10 times = 33-33-33-35-35-37 sts. AT THE SAME TIME after A.2 work in stockinette st with gray until finished measurements (with 2 strands Brushed Alpaca Silk/1 strand Melody). Work until piece measures 43-42-42-42-42-42 cm / 17"-16½"-16½"-16½"-16½"-16½'' (NOTE: Shorter measurements in the larger sizes because of wider shoulders). Approx. 2 cm / 3/4'' remain until finished measurements, try the jumper on for desired length. Switch to double pointed needles size 6 mm / US 10. Work 4 ridges and LOOSELY bind off. Sleeve measures approx. 45-44-44-44-44-44 cm / 17 3/4"-17 1/4"-17 1/4"-17 1/4"-17 1/4"-17 1/4". Work the other sleeve the same way. ASSEMBLY: Sew the openings under the sleeves. |

As other knitter pointed out, after chart A1 I've got 29cm instead of 19cm as per pattern.I knit with 7mm needles, double strand of yarn. Pattern is lovely, but the measurements I think are not accurate, the jumper is very oversize. I just finished the body in size S and it's huge. I'll try again with much smaller needles, maybe 4mm because the jumper is almost double my size ( I'm a size L, but I chose size S because I'm thin : 65kg/174cm and I only knit the body longer).
