INFORMATION FOR PATTERN: PATTERN: See diagrams A.1 to A.5. INCREASE TIP-1: Increase 1 treble crochet by working 2 treble crochets in same stitch. CROCHET TIP-1 (applies to body but not diagram): Replace first treble crochet at beginning of every row with 3 chain stitches. CROCHET TIP-2 (applies to body but not diagram): When working in the round, replace first treble with 3 chain stitches, finish round with 1 slip stitch in 3rd chain stitch at beginning of round. DECREASE TIP: Decrease by working 2 treble crochets together. INCREASE TIP-2 (evenly): To calculate how to increase evenly, use the total number of treble crochets on row (e.g. 146 treble crochets) and divide treble crochets by number of increases to be done (e.g. 22) = 6.6. In this example increase by working 2 treble crochets in same treble crochet alternately approx. every 6th and 7th treble crochet. ---------------------------------------------------------- TOP: Piece is worked back and forth, top down, work front and back piece separately down to armhole, then work in the round over both parts. Then work straps from bottom up and then work flounces back and forth on straps, fasten flounce to front/back piece. FRONT PIECE: Work 51-53-53-55-57-59 chain stitches (including 3 chain stitches to turn with) on hook size 5 mm with Cotton Merino. Switch to hook size 4 mm, turn and work 1 treble crochet in 4th chain stitch from hook (= 2 treble crochets), work 1 treble crochet in each of the next 47-49-49-51-53-55 chain stitches = 49-51-51-53-55-57 treble crochets. On next row begin increase in each side of piece AT THE SAME TIME work pattern as follows: Increase 1 treble crochet in each side of piece (= 2 treble crochets increased) - read INCREASE TIP-1. Increase like this every row 3-5-8-13-14-15 times in total, and then every other row 5-5-3-0-0-0 times in total = 65-71-73-79-83-87 treble crochets on last row. Work next row as follows, begin from right side: Read CROCHET TIP-1 – work 1 treble crochet in each of the first 0-1-1-2-3-4 treble crochets, A.1a over the next 10 treble crochets, repeat A.1b over the next 30 treble crochets (= 5 times in total in width), A.1c over the next 9 treble crochets and 1 treble crochet in each of the last 0-1-1-2-3-4 treble crochets. Continue until A.1 has been work 1 time vertically. REMEMBER THE CROCHET TENSION! Then work as follows, begin from wrong side: Work 1 treble crochet in every treble crochet until 1 treble crochet remains before first chain space, work A.2c, repeat A.2b 3 times in total in width, A.2a and 1 treble crochet in every treble crochet the entire row. Continue until A.2 has been worked vertically. Then work as follows, begin from wrong side: Work 1 treble crochet in every treble crochet until first chain space, work A.3 and 1 treble crochet in every treble crochet the rest of row. Continue until A.3 has been worked vertically. Now work 1 treble crochet in every stitch until piece measures 14-15-15-16-16-17 cm. Fasten off, turn. Put piece aside. BACK PIECE: Work 51-53-53-55-57-59 chain stitches (including 3 chain stitches to turn with) on hook size 5 mm with Cotton Merino. Switch to hook size 4 mm, turn and work 1 treble crochet in 4th chain stitch from hook (= 2 treble crochets), work 1 treble crochet in each of the next 47-49-49-51-53-55 chain stitches = 49-51-51-53-55-57 treble crochets. Then work 1 treble crochet in every treble crochet - AT THE SAME TIME increase 1 treble crochet in each side of piece - remember INCREASE TIP-1. Increase like this every row 8-10-11-13-14-15 times in total = 65-71-73-79-83-87 treble crochets on last row. When piece measures 14-15-15-16-16-17 cm (adjust according to front piece), fasten off, turn. BODY: Now work the two parts together as follows: Work 4-4-7-8-12-15 chain stitches for armhole, 1 treble crochet in each of the 65-71-73-79-83-87 treble crochets from back piece, work 8-8-14-16-24-30 chain stitches for armhole, 1 treble crochet in each of the 65-71-73-79-83-87 treble crochets from front piece, work 4-4-7-8-12-15 chain stitches for armhole and finish with 1 slip stitch in first chain stitch at beginning of round. Then work piece in the round, continue with 1 treble in every treble/chain stitch = 146-158-174-190-214-234 trebles. When working in the round, turn after every round to work alternately from right side and wrong side. This is so that the texture is the same on the entire top - read CROCHET TIP-2. Insert 1 marker thread in each side, in the middle of the 8-8-14-16-24-30 chain stitches. NOW MEASURE THE PIECE FROM HERE! Continue like this until piece measures 8-9-10-11-12-13 cm. Now work in the round according to diagram A.4 while at the same time increasing on first round (round marked with arrow in diagram) as follows: Work A.4b 28-30-33-36-39-43 times in total on round – A.4a shows how rounds begin and end and is worked in addition to A.4b – AT THE SAME TIME increase 11-11-12-13-10-12 chain spaces (= 1 treble crochet + 1 chain stitch) evenly – read INCREASE TIP-2 = 84-90-99-108-117-129 chain spaces (= 1 treble crochet + 1 chain stitch). Continue in the round, i.e. always work pattern from right side. When A.4 is done vertically, fasten off. STRAPS: Now work a strap back and forth in cast-on edge on front piece over the first 8-9-9-9-10-10 treble crochets. Work 1 treble crochet in every treble crochet until strap measures 10-10-11-11-12-12 cm. Fasten off. Work 1 strap over the first 8-9-9-9-10-10 treble crochets in the other side the same way. Work straps the same way on back piece. Sew tog straps on shoulder. FLOUNCE: Work back and forth over every row on strap (= 20-20-22-22-24-24 cm). Begin from wrong side and work 1 treble crochet in first row, * 1 chain stitch, 1 treble crochet around row *, work from *-* along the entire strap – adjust so that there are 26-26-28-28-30-30 chain spaces (= 1 chain stitch + 1 treble crochet) on this row, finish with 1 treble crochet in last row = 1 treble crochet in each side and 26-26-28-28-30-30 chain spaces (= 1 chain stitch + 1 treble crochet). Turn and work as follows from right side: A.5a, A.5b 13-13-14-14-15-15 times in total in width, finish with A.5c. Continue this pattern until A.5 is done vertically, fasten off. Work flounce on the other strap the same way. NECK EDGE: Work 1 double crochet in every treble crochet/2 double crochets along every treble crochet row along the entire neck. SLEEVE EDGE: Work 1 double crochet in every treble crochet/2 double crochets along every treble crochet row along armhole – start right after flounce, work along armhole and to the flounce. Place flounce edge to edge to this sleeve edge (on both front and back piece) and fasten with small, neat stitches. Work the other sleeve edge the same way and fasten flounce. TIE: Cut 3 lengths of 3 metres each with Cotton Merino. Twine the strands tog until they resist, fold them double so that they twine again. Make a knot at each end. Baste the yarn up and down through first row with eyelet holes - start mid front. Tie a bow at the front. |

Salve, sto lavorando la maglia in taglia S, ma non ho capito come fare gli aumenti all'inizio. Potreste spiegarmelo? Grazie
04.07.2018 - 17:54DROPS Design answered:
Buongiorno Chiara, quando arriva ad avere 49 maglie alte, a partire dalla riga successiva deve aumentare 1 maglia a ogni lato del lavoro seguendo il SUGGERIMENTO PER GLI AUMENTI-1 (Quindi lavorando 2 maglie alte nella stessa maglia), su ogni riga per 3 volte, poi a righe alterne per 5 volte, quindi 6 + 10 = 16 aumenti e 65 maglie in totale. Buon lavoro!

Hello,I am working on pattern A1 for the front piece. The number of stitches did not add up to be 65. I got 10 stitches for A1a, 30 stitches for A1b and 9 stitches for A1c. That were the total of 49 stitches. What do I do for the rest 16 stitches? Thank you for your answer!
29.06.2018 - 18:26DROPS Design answered:
Dear Hannah, in first size you start working A.1 after the first row with increase (you increase at the same time as you work pattern), there was 47 sts + 2 sts inc on first row = 49 sts. Start now working A.1 and continue increasing 1 st on each side 2 more times every row then 5 times every other row = 65 sts. Happy crocheting!

Salve sono sempre io ora ho un problema quando inizia il motivo mi dice di ripetere il a1b sulle 30 maglie successive e poi a1c sulle 9 ma non mi tornano i conti aiutooooo grazie taglia l
29.06.2018 - 16:39DROPS Design answered:
Buongiorno Germana. Lavora il motivo e contemporaneamente aumenta. Quindi imposta il lavoro come indicato: 1 maglia alta nella prima maglia alta, A.1a sulle 10 maglie alte successive, ripetere A.1b sulle 30 maglie alte successive (= 5 volte in totale in larghezza), A.1c sulle 9 maglie alte successive e 1 maglia alta nell’ultima maglia alta, e contemporaneamente aumenta ai due lati . Buon lavoro!

28.06.2018 - 22:02DROPS Design answered:
Buongiorno Germana. Il top è lavorato dall'alto verso il basso, quindi parte dallo scollo. Deve aumentare, per la taglia L, 1 maglia da ciascun lato ad ogni riga per 8 volte e poi ogni due righe per 3 volte. Buon lavoro!

For the beginning of the front piece, did the instructions get placed wrong? It starts with full on double crochets like the back piece, then goes to the nice detailing that's on the top. It is worked top to bottom, right?
28.06.2018 - 06:31DROPS Design answered:
Dear Jen, on right front piece you first work 1 row with dc, then start to increase on each side and at the same time start to work the lace pattern as explained: 1 dc in the next 0-1-1-2-3-4 first dc (do not forget to increase) A.1a, A.1b over the next 30 sts, A.1c and 1 dc in each of the last 0-1-1-2-3-4 dc (do not forget to increase). Happy crocheting!

I do not understand the diagram part of this pattern. I have never worked from a diagram before and am totally lost. I am really confused on where to begin and how to read the diagram. Would appreciate any help you could give. Do you have any videos with sound or any written directions for the diagram part. Thanks!!
24.06.2018 - 09:24DROPS Design answered:
Dear Mrs Brock, there is only diagrams to this pattern. Start reading the diagram at the bottom corner on the right side (1st row = with star shows previous row and has already been worked) and read each round from the right towards the left. Every symbol in diagram is matching a stitch/group of stitch - see key to diagram. Should you need any further assistance with diagrams, you are welcome to contact your DROPS store - even per mail or telephone - they will be able to help you. Happy crocheting!
