LACE PATTERN: See diagrams A.1 to A.3. A.2 shows how round begins and ends when working A.1 (A.2 is an addition to A.1, i.e A.2 replaces 1st stitch). CROCHET INFO: Begin every round with trebles with 3 chain stitches ,finish round with 1 slip stitch in 3rd chain stitch at beginning of round. Begin every round with double crochet with 1 chain stitch, finish round with 1 slip stitch in 1st chain stitch at beginning of round. 2nd and 5th round in A.3 begins with 3 chain stitches, finish round with 1 slip stitch in 3rd chain stitch at beginning of round. PATTERN-1 (applies to body): Work A.3. When A.3 has been worked 1 time vertically, work 5-6-8-9-10-11 rounds with 1 treble in every treble, then work A.3 one more time. INCREASE/DECREASE TIP: To calculate how to increase/decrease evenly, use the total number of stitches on row (e.g. 258 stitches) and divide stitches by number of increases/decreases to be done (e.g. 15) = 17.2. In this example increase after approx. every 17th stitch. If decrease, crochet approx. every 16th and 17th stitch together. INCREASE TIP-1: Increase 1 treble by working 2 trebles in same stitch. INCREASE TIP-2: Work until 2 trebles/chain stitches remain before marker thread, work 2 trebles in/around next treble/chain stitch (= 1 treble increased), work 1 treble in/around each of the next 2 treble/chain stitches, marker thread is in the middle of these trebles/chain stitches, work 2 trebles in/around next treble/chain stitch (= 1 treble increased). Repeat increase at every marker thread. DECREASE TIP: Decrease 1 treble by working the next 2 trebles together as follows: Work 1 treble but wait with last pull through (= 2 loops on hook), then work next treble but on last pull through, pull yarn through all 3 loops on hook. ---------------------------------------------------------- DRESS: Worked in the round from mid back, top down. YOKE: Work 146-146-155-155-163-163 chain stitches on hook size 3.5 mm with Safran and form a ring with 1 slip stitch in first chain stitch. Work first round as follows: Work 3 chain stitches - READ CROCHET INFO, 1 treble in each of the next 5-5-0-0-1-1 chain stitch, * skip 1 chain stitch, 1 treble in each of the next 6 chain stitches *, repeat from *-* the entire round = 126-126-133-133-140-140 trebles (including 3 chain stitches from the beginning of round). Then work A.1 in the round (= 18-18-19-19-20-20 repetitions of 7 stitches - A.2 shows how every round in A.1 begins and ends and comes in addition to A.1). REMEMBER THE CROCHET TENSION! On last round in A.1 insert 8 marker threads and crochet as follows: Work as shown in diagram and increase as explained below – READ INCREASE-TIP 1: Work 29-29-31-31-33-33 trebles and increase 0-0-0-1-0-0 trebles evenly, insert 1 marker thread in piece, work 4 trebles and increase 2-4-4-4-4-4 trebles evenly (= right back piece), insert 1 marker thread, work 42-42-44-44-46-46 trebles and increase 0-1-1-2-1-1 trebles evenly, insert 1 marker thread, work 4 trebles and increase 2-4-4-4-4-4 trebles evenly, insert 1 marker thread (= sleeve), work 58-58-62-62-66-66 trebles and increase 0-0-0-2-0-0 trebles evenly, insert 1 marker thread, work 4 trebles and increase 1-4-4-4-4-4 trebles evenly, insert 1 marker thread (= front piece), work 42-42-44-44-46-46 trebles and increase 0-1-1-2-1-1 trebles evenly, insert 1 marker thread, work 4 trebles and increase 1-4-4-4-4-4 trebles evenly, insert 1 marker thread (= sleeve), work 29-29-31-31-33-33 trebles and increase 0-0-0-1-0-0 trebles evenly(= left back piece) = 222-234-246-252-258-258 trebles on round. Piece measures approx. 9 cm. Work 0-0-0-0-2-2 rounds with 1 treble in every treble and increase 0-0-0-0-12-15 trebles evenly on each of the rounds – READ INCREASE/DECREASE TIP (= 0-0-0-0-24-30 trebles in total) = 222-234-246-252-282-288 trebles. Move marker threads upwards when working. Repeat A.3 37-39-41-42-47-48 times in total in width. On 2nd round (i.e. round with trebles) increase at every marker thread – READ INCREASE TIP-2 and increase 2-8-8-8-8-8 trebles evenly on round (= 2 trebles increased at every marker thread and 2-8-8-8-8-8 trebles increase evenly = 18-24-24-24-24-24 trebles increased on round) = 240-258-270-276-306-312 trebles. Now repeat A.3 40-43-45-46-51-52 times in width. Repeat increase on last round in A.3 (i.e. 2 trebles increased at every marker thread and 2-8-8-8-8-8 trebles increased evenly = 18-24-24-24-24-24 trebles increased in total on round) = 258-282-294-300-330-336 trebles. * Work 1 round trebles with 1 treble in every treble. Work 1 round trebles and increase 18-18-16-17-24-26 trebles evenly *, repeat from *-* 1-1-2-3-2-3 times in total = 276-300-326-351-378-414 trebles. Work 0-1-1-0-1-0 rounds trebles with 1 treble in every treble. Piece measures approx. 17-18-19-20-21-22 cm. On next round work as follows: Work 1 treble in each of the first 39-43-47-51-57-64 trebles (= half back piece), work 8 chain stitches, skip 60-64-69-73-75-79 trebles from previous round (= sleeve), 1 treble in each of the next 78-86-94-103-114-128 trebles (= front piece), 8 chain stitches, skip 60-64-69-73-75-79 trebles from previous round (= sleeve), 1 treble in each of the last 39-43-47-51-57-64 trebles (= half back piece) = 172-188-204-221-244-272 trebles/chain stitches on round. Finish body and sleeves separately. BODY: Insert 1 marker on round – NOW MEASURE PIECE FROM HERE. Work 1 round trebles with 1 treble in every treble/chain stitch. Work 1 round more with 1 treble in every treble and decrease AT THE SAME TIME 4-2-0-5-4-2 trebles evenly – READ INCREASE/DECREASE TIP and DECREASE TIP = 168-186-204-216-240-270 trebles. Now work PATTERN-1 - see explanation above. AT THE SAME TIME when piece measures 9-10-11-12-13-14 cm, adjust so that next round is a round with trebles, decrease 6-12-12-6-6-6 trebles evenly = 162-174-192-210-234-264 trebles. Continue pattern-1. When piece measures 19-20-21-22-23-24 cm, increase 6 trebles evenly - READ INCREASE/DECREASE TIP AND INCREASE TIP-1. Increase like this every 3rd round 12-12-12-12-14-14 times in total = 234-246-264-282-318-348 trebles. When piece measures 49-51-53-55-57-59 cm from marker (entire dress measures approx. 71-74-77-80-83-86 cm), work A.3 in the round. When A.3 has been worked, work 1 round trebles with 1 treble in every treble. Then work 1 round double crochet with 1 double crochet in every treble. Fasten off. Dress measures approx. 76-79-82-85-88-91 cm from shoulder and down. SLEEVE: Sleeve is worked in the round, top down. Beg by working mid under sleeve as follows: Work 1 double crochet in the 5th chain stitch of the 8 chain stitches worked in armhole on body, work 3 chain stitches, work 1 treble in each of the next 3 chain stitches, work 1 treble in every treble over sleeve, work 1 treble in each of the remaining chain stitches under sleeve = 68-72-77-81-83-87 trebles on round. Insert 1 marker mid under sleeve – NOW MEASURE PIECE FROM HERE. SIZE S + M: Work 1 round trebles with 1 treble in every treble and decrease AT THE SAME TIME 2-0 trebles evenly = 66-72 trebles. SIZE L + XL + XXL + XXXL: Work 1 round trebles with 1 treble in every treble and increase AT THE SAME TIME 1-3-1-3 trebles evenly = 78-84-84-90 trebles. ALL SIZES: = 66-72-78-84-84-90 trebles. Work trebles in the round with 1 treble in every treble until piece measures approx. 3 cm from marker in all sizes. Now work A.3 in the round. When A.3 has been worked, work 1 round trebles with 1 treble in every treble. Then work 1 round double crochet with 1 double crochet in every treble. Fasten off. Work the other sleeve the same way. NECK EDGE: Worked back and forth from mid back - NOTE: Work in the chain stitches where trebles were worked, but do not work in the chain stitches skipped = 126-126-133-133-140-140 trebles).

Buenas tardes, he encontrado una manera para que no se note la línea de unión en la espalda. He empezado a tejer no en el centro de la espalda sino en el costado (debajo de la axila) después de terminar la parte complicada de canesú. Sigo tejiendo en redondo como dice el patrón, pero voy girando la labor. Así se consigue que la línea no se note tanto y que no se vaya inclinando hacía un lado. Se queda recta, y en el costado donde se nota menos que en la espalda.

Hi, when doing the neck edge do you pick up the stitches doing a round of double crochet first or do you work the picked up stitches as the working row starting with the single crochets?
10.05.2021 - 19:45DROPS Design answered:
Dear Suzy, when starting the neck edge, you crochet 126-126-133-133-140-140 dc (uk= tr), and then start the first row with the sigle crochets. Happy Crafting!

Buenos días, como tejer en redondo la parte del cuerpo donde no hay patrón, solo puntos altos, para que no se note tanto la unión? La línea que empieza en el centro de la espalda después de tantas vueltas está inclinada, diagonal. No queda muy bonito y no se cómo arreglarlo. Sigo el patrón, 3 puntos de cadena para iniciar la vuelta y terminar con un punto enano en el tercer punto de la cadeneta inicial.
08.05.2021 - 11:26DROPS Design answered:
Hola Susana, es normal al trabajar en redondo que se note la unión con un punto enano. Se puede disminular controlando la tensión de los puntos altos y las cadenetas, pero va a seguir visible.

Hello there, I love this dress pattern, but I am having a hard time reading it and following along with the video clips since the clips don't tell you how to start. I do very well but watching someone make a version step-by-step. If you could possibly do that in a YouTube version or something, that would be fantastic. Thank you.

Dear Talia, all the available, relevant videos can be found linked on the page (below the pattern). If you still have trouble, you can always contact (either in person, or over the phone) the store where you bought your DROPS yarn from, for firther help. Happy Knitting!

Hi, after the yoke part, can the 8 markers be taken out as you are only using the one in the back to measure the bodice part? I am now working A1 for the second time in the bodice part and still moving the original 8 markers down.

And what does it mean when the chart is turned? Does that mean turning the work?

Dear No A, I'm not sure to understand your question, what do you mean here? Can you explain somewhat more what you are thinking about? Thanks for your comprehension.

Hi, just a question. Why doesn’t A.3 graph show the slip stitch and start chains as it does in A1 and 2? I am finding it very confusing in Pattern 1 of the body and have ended up on the last row with 218 stitches instead of 216 for size XL (before the 6 decreases)
08.02.2021 - 19:21DROPS Design answered:
Dear Nova, the 3 chains at the beginning of the round when working A.3 doesn't count as a stitch, just work them extra - as on round 2 and 5. Make sure you have the correct number of stitches before dividing piece (= 300 sts), then at the beg of body (= 221) so that you have 216 sts after decreasing 5 stitches. Happy crocheting!

Oh glory days! I worked it out in A.1 just finished the first row and I now know where I went wrong it was in this graph I was crocheting the 6 sts for each section instead of skipping those two sts at the end of the section i was on,y skipping 1 st it’s made such a difference I’ve worked it 19 times. I hope it’s plain sailing from here on in. Thank you so much for your patience you guys are just great!!
