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). Work 1 double crochet in each of the first 16-16-18-18-20-20 stitches, * 1 half treble in each of the next 3 stitches, 1 treble in each of the next 3 stitches, 1 double treble in each of the next 19 stitches, 1 treble in each of the next 3 stitches, 1 half treble in each of the next 3 stitches *, 1 double crochet in each of the next 32-32-35-35-38-38 stitches, repeat from *-* 1 time and then work 1 double crochet in each of the last 16-16-18-18-20-20 stitches. Work next round as follows: Work 1 double crochet in each of the first 20-20-22-22-24-24 stitches, ** 1 half treble in each of the next 3 stitches, 1 treble in each of the next 3 stitches, * work the next 2 double trebles together *, repeat from *-* 5 more times, 1 treble in each of the next 3 stitches, 1 half treble in each of the next 3 stitches **, 1 double crochet in each of the next 38-38-41-41-44-44 stitches, repeat from **-** 1 more times and finish with 1 double crochet in each of the last 20-20-22-22-24-24 stitches = 114-114-121-121-128-128 stitches.

It’s very confusing as I get 22 repetitions of 7 stitches on the first round of A.1 and I’m not sure how you can get that wrong. I have 22 petals should I only have 19 and is that the reason why I have 3 extra chain spaces left on the last row in A.1 to complete the increase round? All the stitches work out on that last row with the increases but I’m just left with those extra three spaces to work the 4 dc in each which would give me 12 extra stitches. Please help thank you
03.02.2021 - 10:13DROPS Design answered:
Dear Cloudy, as explained previously you are working 19 repeats of A.1 in size L, so that you work on the first row 19 times the repeats worked each over 7 sts = 19*7= 133 sts, exactly the number of stitches you have after first round. You start the first repeat with 3 chains as shown in diagram A.2 and as explains under CROCHET INFO

Major issues with this pattern I got to the last row worked A.1 worked all my increases and was left with an excess of stitches size L should be 246 but had much more. Ripped it back to the first row where it says 19 repetitions of 7 stitches but when I count them it’s 22 repetitions. The sts all add up if I count 22 reptitions of 6 st (not counting the missed st) it’s 132 +1. Count 22 reptitions of 7 st it’s 154 + 1 the number of starting chain.
03.02.2021 - 08:17DROPS Design answered:
Dear Cloudy, you cast on 155 chains but should have 133 sts after first round and work now 19repeats of 7 sts each (=19x7= 133 sts). by working A.2, start round with 3 chains (that don't replace 1st dc there). When A.1 is done, there are 19 repeats x 12 = 228 sts but you will increase evenly a total of 18 sts on last round in A.1 so that you have 228-18= 246 sts after A.1 is worked. Hope this will help, happy crocheting!

Thank you for your reply. I am doing the size L in the first increase in the yoke it says to crochet 31 stitches, does that 31 include the chain 3 at the beginning or count 31 stitches after the chain 3? Also when the 4 double crochet is worked with 4 increases does that mean that each dc is increased to get a total of 8?
02.02.2021 - 17:27DROPS Design answered:
Dear Cloudy, you can replace the first dc on this round with 3 chains - then correct, increasing 4 sts over 4 sts means work 2 dc over each of the next 4 sts = 8 dc. Happy crocheting!

When counting the stitches in the yoke part of the pattern does the chain 3 at the beginning of each row count as a stitch?
02.02.2021 - 12:06DROPS Design answered:
Dear Cloudy, yes the 3 chain stitches count as a stitch when counting the number of sts except when working A.2/A.1. Happy crocheting!

Thank you so much for giving the detailed video in doing the graphs. It has helped so much in your patterns and I consider myself an advanced crocheter and knitter. I very much appreciate the help!

I've worked with charts for many years. Your charts are confusing. Why not have a full chart rather than smaller pieces. I even put them on graph paper. Just a huge waste of my time. I can figure out the design from the garment piece easier than from your chart. I read and watch your chart instructions. Just make a full chart rather than smaller pieces like in knitting. But yours are confusing. Thank you for the ideas, but the charts don't help.

Bonjour ! Comment s'enfile cette robe ? Par la tête ? L'espace resserré à la taille permet quand même de faire passer les épaules ? Merci

Bonjour Mme Clapeyron, oui et oui :) Pensez - comme toujours - à bien faire votre échantillon et à bien conserver la même tension lors de la réalisation de la robe. Bon crochet!

I'm having trouble with increase row after A1. I am making the XL size and can't seem to get it to add up to 252 total TC. First I am doing 31 TC with 1 inc = 32TC / 4 TC with 4 inc = 8 TC / 44TC with 2 inc = 46 TC / 62 TC with 2 inc = 64 TC / 4 TC with 4 inc = 8 TC / 44TC with 2 inc = 46 TC / 4TC with 4 inc = 8TC / 31 TC with 1inc = 32TC / Makes a total of 244 TC Can you please explain where I am going wrong? Thanks!
26.10.2020 - 18:10DROPS Design answered:
Dear Michelle, it looks like you forget 4 TC + 4 inc = 8 there: 31 TC with 1 inc = 32TC / 4 TC with 4 inc = 8 TC / 44TC with 2 inc = 46 TC / 4 TC with 4 inc = 8TC / 62 TC with 2 inc = 64 TC / 4 TC with 4 inc = 8 TC / 44TC with 2 inc = 46 TC / 4TC with 4 inc = 8TC / 31 TC with 1inc = 32TC - you have now: 32+8+46+8+64+8+46+8+32= 252 TC. Happy crocheting!

Bonjour ,lors du rang 1 augmentation à la fin de A1 ,les augmentations se font au niveau des 4 mailles entre 2 marqueurs ? Merci
21.08.2020 - 06:55DROPS Design answered:
Bonjour Brigitte, au dernier tour de A.1 vous placez les 8 fils marqueurs en crochetant les mailles indiquées entre les marqueurs, autrement dit, quand on doit crocheter 31 brides en augmentant 1 bride avant le 1er marqueur, vous aurez bien fait 32 brides avant de mettre le 1er marqueur - et ainsi de suite. Bon crochet!
