INFORMATION FOR PATTERN: PATTERN: See diagrams A.1 to A.5. INCREASE TIP-1: Increase 1 double crochet by working 2 double crochets in same stitch. CROCHET TIP-1 (applies to body but not diagram): Replace first double 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 double crochets together. INCREASE TIP-2 (evenly): To calculate how to increase evenly, use the total number of double crochets on row (e.g. 146 double crochets) and divide double crochets by number of increases to be done (e.g. 22) = 6.6. In this example increase by working 2 double crochets in same double crochet alternately approx. every 6th and 7th double 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 / H/8 with Cotton Merino. Switch to hook size 4 mm / G/6, turn and work 1 double crochet in 4th chain stitch from hook (= 2 double crochets), work 1 double crochet in each of the next 47-49-49-51-53-55 chain stitches = 49-51-51-53-55-57 double crochets. On next row begin increase in each side of piece AT THE SAME TIME work pattern as follows: Increase 1 double crochet in each side of piece (= 2 double 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 double crochets on last row. Work next row as follows, begin from right side: Read CROCHET TIP-1 – work 1 double crochet in each of the first 0-1-1-2-3-4 double crochets, A.1a over the next 10 double crochets, repeat A.1b over the next 30 double crochets (= 5 times in total in width), A.1c over the next 9 double crochets and 1 double crochet in each of the last 0-1-1-2-3-4 double crochets. Continue until A.1 has been work 1 time vertically. REMEMBER THE CROCHET GAUGE! Then work as follows, begin from wrong side: Work 1 double crochet in every double crochet until 1 double crochet remains before first chain space, work A.2c, repeat A.2b 3 times in total in width, A.2a and 1 double crochet in every double crochet the entire row. Continue until A.2 has been worked vertically. Then work as follows, begin from wrong side: Work 1 double crochet in every double crochet until first chain space, work A.3 and 1 double crochet in every double crochet the rest of row. Continue until A.3 has been worked vertically. Now work 1 double crochet in every stitch until piece measures 14-15-15-16-16-17 cm / 5 ½"-5⅞"-5⅞"-6 ¼"-6 ¼"-6⅝". 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 / H/8 with Cotton Merino. Switch to hook size 4 mm / G/6, turn and work 1 double crochet in 4th chain stitch from hook (= 2 double crochets), work 1 double crochet in each of the next 47-49-49-51-53-55 chain stitches = 49-51-51-53-55-57 double crochets. Then work 1 double crochet in every double crochet - AT THE SAME TIME increase 1 double 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 double crochets on last row. When piece measures 14-15-15-16-16-17 cm / 5 ½"-5⅞"-5⅞"-6 ¼"-6 ¼"-6⅝" (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 double crochet in each of the 65-71-73-79-83-87 double crochets from back piece, work 8-8-14-16-24-30 chain stitches for armhole, 1 double crochet in each of the 65-71-73-79-83-87 double 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 double in every double/chain stitch = 146-158-174-190-214-234 double crochets. 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 / 3⅛"-3½"-4"-4⅜"-4¾"-5⅛". 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 double crochet + 1 chain stitch) evenly – read INCREASE TIP-2 = 84-90-99-108-117-129 chain spaces (= 1 double 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 double crochets. Work 1 double crochet in every double crochet until strap measures 10-10-11-11-12-12 cm / 4"-4"-4⅜"-4⅜"-4¾"-4¾". Fasten off. Work 1 strap over the first 8-9-9-9-10-10 double 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 / 7⅞"-7⅞"-8⅝"-8⅝"-9⅜"-9⅜"). Begin from wrong side and work 1 double crochet in first row, * 1 chain stitch, 1 double 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 double crochet) on this row, finish with 1 double crochet in last row = 1 double crochet in each side and 26-26-28-28-30-30 chain spaces (= 1 chain stitch + 1 double 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 single crochet in every double crochet/2 single crochets along every double crochet row along the entire neck. SLEEVE EDGE: Work 1 single crochet in every double crochet/2 single crochets along every double 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. |

Can u help me understand this instruction please, increase 11-11-12-13-10-12 chain spaces (= 1 double crochet + 1 chain stitch) evenly – read INCREASE TIP-2 = 84-90-99-108-117-129 chain spaces (= 1 double crochet + 1 chain stitch). Continue in the round, i.e. always work pattern from right side. When A.4 is done vertically, fasten off. Does it mean i have to increase in every 11 double crochet? Whats is 84 chain spaces means then? Thank you,
14.08.2020 - 08:00DROPS Design answered:
Dear Marivi, you increase not only 11 double crochets but also the chain stitches that are between these 11 double crochets, this means you will work evenly 11 times (= 1 double crochet, 1 chain, 1 double crochet, 1 chain) in 1 double crochet (= stitches are increased on first row in A.1). 84 chain spaces means there are now 84 times (1 dc, 1 chain = 1 chain-space). Happy crocheting!

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 double crochets on last row. Does this mean i have to made 11 row of dhouble crochet cause it does not add up.. the way i imagine it this will be the upper portion of the design right? Can u please explain farther about this instruction
10.08.2020 - 05:15DROPS Design answered:
Dear Marivi, in 3rd size you increase 8 times on every row (= for a total of 8 rows) + 3 times on every other row ( for a total of 6 rows) - this means you will have worked 14 rows when all decreases are done. You started with 51 sts + 2 sts increased x 11 times = 51+22= 73 sts. Happy crocheting!

In the 190 21 pattern it says to crochet 0 then pattern over 40 stitches altogether but that leaves 15 over ... Can you explain please ? Iv tried to work it out but I am stuck
06.07.2020 - 21:42DROPS Design answered:
Dear Mrs Holman, you start in first size with 49 sts, then inc on each side working diagrams at the same time: work A.1a (=10 sts), repeat A.1b (30 sts) and finish with A.1c (= 9 sts) = 49 sts, at the same time increase in the first st + in the last st on row = 51 sts at the end of first row. Then continue llike this, insert markers if necessary to see where diagrams start/end. Happy crocheting!

Hallo, kann mir bitte jemand diese AL genau erklären ? Wann z.B. muss ich welches Muster häkeln ? Und die Muster in Häkelschrift gehören wohin (Vorder- oder Rückenteil, Rumpf, Träger) ? Leider ist die AL schlecht geschrieben / übersetzt und es fehlen die wichtigsten Angaben. Würde mich freuen, wenn mir jemand helfen kann. Vielen Dank
16.06.2020 - 22:00DROPS Design answered:
Liebe Petra, beim Vorderteil häkeln Sie zuerst 1 Reihe Stäbchen dann häkeln im Muster (= A.1) und nehmen beidseitig zu. Muster wird wie beschrieben gehäkelt (starten Sie mit A.1a, wiederholen Sie A.1b und enden Sie mit A.1c) - die Zunahmen gleichzeitig nicht vergessen. Hier lesen Sie mehr über Diagramme. Ihr Laden kann Ihnen gerne weiterhelfen, auch telefonisch oder per E-Mail. Viel Spaß beim häkeln!

Ich denke bin auch recht erfahren, aber diese Anleitung ist kompliziert geschrieben.... Ich raffs nicht...mega mega schade....Ich habs schon bestimmt 20 mal gelesen um zu versuchen es zu verstehen...
15.06.2020 - 22:23DROPS Design answered:
Liebe Frau Gunder, unsere Anleitungen sind möglichst ausführlich Schritt für Schritt geschrieben, darum wirken sie manchmal vielleicht kompliziert. An welcher Stelle verstehen Sie denn etwas nicht? Der erste Häkelschritt ist ab "Vorderteil". Dort ist beschrieben, wie viele Maschen anschlagen werden und nach welchen Diagrammen (A.1, A.2 usw.) Sie häkeln - die Diagramme (Häkelschriften) finden Sie am Ende der Anleitung. Weitere Hilfen finden Sie bei den Videos und Lektionen, die in der Anleitung verlinkt sind. Fragen Sie gerne nach, womit Sie nicht zurechtkommen.

Buonasera,mi piace molto questo modello,ma devo dire che la spiegazione è davvero poco chiara e da quanto leggo nei commenti non sono l\'unica ad avere problemi.

Försöker virka denna topp undrar, detta mönster säger "Fortsätt till A.1 har virkats 1 gång på höjden" betyder det att A1 a, b, c, virkas 5 varv?
14.06.2020 - 11:35DROPS Design answered:
Hei Gun. Ja, det er riktig. A.1 (a+b+c) består av 5 rader = 1 høyde av A.1. God Fornøyelse!
