EXPLANATION FOR THE PATTERN: ---------------------------------------------------------- PATTERN: See diagrams A.1 to A.5. ---------------------------------------------------------- START THE PIECE HERE: ---------------------------------------------------------- KIMONO - SHORT SUMMARY OF PIECE: Worked in parts. First work right front and back piece in the round as a hexagon. Then work shoulder and sleeve seam together before continuing back and forth towards mid back. Then work left front and back piece the same way before continuing back and forth down the body. Then work the shawl collar and bands. KIMONO: RIGHT FRONT AND BACK PIECE: Begin with hook size 5.5 mm = US I/9 and Big Delight and work pattern according to diagram A.1. When entire A.1 has been worked, continue as follows: A.2 (shows how round begins and ends and replaces first double crochet on round), A.3 6 times in total on round. REMEMBER THE CROCHET GAUGE! Continue in the round like this until A.2 and A.3 are done. Then repeat the last 2 rounds in A.2 and A.3 until piece measures 28 cm = 11" from the centre and outwards (i.e. every time the 2 last rounds have been worked, there is room for 2 double crochet groups more between each of the 6 corners on hexagon) – adjust to finish after a round with 3 double crochets + 1 chain stitch. Cut the yarn. The hexagon now forms first part of right sleeve, shoulder and front and back piece: Centre of A.1 = mid under sleeve. Fold right front and back piece so that right side is against right side and all corners meet another corner - chart: The dotted lines shows where increase on hexagon is and hexagon is folded under sleeves and in side seam. Now work shoulder and sleeve seam together through both layers from wrong side as follows: Begin at the bottom of sleeve and work 1 single crochet around chain space in corner, * 4 chain stitches, 1 single crochet around next chain space *, work from *-* up to shoulder, but finish with 1 single crochet in chain space in corner. Fasten off. Now work pattern in the different sizes as follows: SIZE S-M: Now work back and forth on back piece as follows: Begin in corner at the bottom of body on back piece, work pattern back and forth towards mid back from wrong side as follows: Work A.4a, A.4b up to next corner before crochet together mid on top of shoulder, work A.4e around chain space in the corner. Turn and work back and forth until diagrams have been worked vertically (= 4 rows). SIZE L/XL AND XXL/XXXL: Begin in corner at the bottom of body on back piece and work pattern back and forth over the shoulder and down towards the corner on front piece from wrong side as follows: Work A.4a, A.4b up to crochet together mid on top of shoulder, work A.4c over crochet together on shoulder and continue with A.4b as before down to next corner, work A.4e around chain space in corner. Turn and work back 2nd row in A.4 (= a total of 2 rows from hexagon edge). Size L/XL is now done. In size XXL/XXXL work 2 rows vertically (= a total of 4 rows from hexagon edge). Do not cut the yarn. Now work back and forth on back piece as follows: Turn and work A.4a, A.4b up to chain stitch in A.4c on shoulder, work A.4d around chain stitch, turn and work back and forth until 4-6 rows has been worked vertically on the back piece (= a total of 6-10 row from the hexagon edge). Cut the yarn. LEFT FRONT AND BACK PIECE: Work the same way as right front and back piece. Work together shoulder and sleeve seam - see black star on chart! NOTE: When working back and forth, make sure that row with double crochets is worked from right side and row with chain spaces is worked from wrong side! I.e. when working back and forth begin at the bottom of body on front piece instead of back piece. ASSEMBLY: Work back pieces together mid back as follows: Place the 2 part with right side against right side and work through both layers from wrong side as follows: Work 1 single crochet at the bottom of corner, * work 4 chain stitches, 1 single crochet around next chain stitch *, work from *-* up to the neck on kimono, and finish with 1 single crochet in last stitch on row. Fasten off. EDGE AT THE BOTTOM OF BODY: NOW MEASURE PIECE FROM HERE! Now work an edge at the bottom of kimono as follows: Begin at the bottom in the corner on right front piece and work from wrong side as follows: Work A.4a, A.4b until next corner (= on back piece), continue with 6-8-10 repetitions of A.4b over parts worked back and forth towards mid back, then work A.4b until corner at the front on left front piece, finish with A.4e. Continue back and forth like this until entire piece measures approx. 16-22-28 cm = 6¼"-8¾"-11". Fasten off. BAND AND SHAWL COLLAR: Begin at the bottom in the corner towards mid front on left front piece and work from wrong side as follows: Work A.4a in the corner, work A.4b up along edge at the bottom of kimono and skip approx. 2½ cm = 1" for every repetition (= approx. 6-9-11 repetitions), continue with A.4b up to shoulder, work A.5 7-7-9 times in total along edge at the neck and continue with A.4b down along edge on right front piece the same way, finish with A.4d at the bottom on right front piece. Work back and forth like this until entire A.5 has been worked vertically. When A.4a, A.4b and A.4d have been worked vertically, repeat the last 2 rows in diagrams. Fasten off. |

It’s not possible to fold according to the diagram. The shape is different. There is not enough material in the hexagon . There is a mistake in the pattern.

Dear Katerina, look at the 3rd picture on the top of the pattern, you will see 3 of the corners from the hexagon (= the dotted lines in the chart), this might help you to fold piece. For any individual assistance, bring your piece to your store or send them a picture per mail, they will be able to help you better. You can also try to ask other crocheters in our DROPS Worskhop. Happy crocheting!

I asked for row by row written instructions and was given a guide to the illustrated pattern, which as an older crocheter, makes no sense to me. Are there written instructions, for example, " ch 2 at beg of row and make 2dc in each stitch across to end of row" I am afraid to purchase the yarn from you and not be able to make the sweater.
04.04.2021 - 15:26DROPS Design answered:
Dear Kimberly, there is no written out pattern, only the diagrams (for the pattern itself). Not only because the patterns are available in a number of languages, but also because we believe that with the diagrams you not only see the very next step, but also the "bigger picture" as how stitches and rows relate to each other en large. We do have a lesson on how to read crochet diagrams here, and if you are still stuck, you can always ask for help (either in person or over the phone) in the store you bought your DROPS yarn from. Happy Crafting!

Is an old fashioned written version of this pattern available in U.S. English? I find diagrams very difficult. If so can you please post a link. Thank you.

Hi Kimberly, yes, please check HERE. Happy crocheting!

Hoi, Ik kom er niet aan uit hoe het rechter voor en achterpand wordt gemaakt. A2 en A3 worden in de rondte gehaakt om een 6hoek te maken maar A2 vervangt een stokje met losse. Dan haak je de toer toch helemaal niet vast? Er staat geen halve vaste oid.

Bonjour Robinne, pouvez-vous être plus précise? Que ne comprenez-vous pas? Quelle partie du modèle, quelle taille faites-vous? Rappelez-vous également que pour toute assistance individuelle à la réalisation d'un modèle, vous pouvez contacter le magasin où vous avez acheté votre laine, même par mail ou téléphone. Bon crochet!

You have written on the diagram a- 1 around chain stitch - Is this a table or dc? The symbol is a treble symbol but instructions talk og double crochet. Help?
20.06.2019 - 05:17DROPS Design answered:
Dear Janine, the 5th symbol under diagram key is a treble crochet (UK-English) / a double crochet (US- English) worked around the chain ring in A.1. Make sure you are reading the correct language, you can edit the language by scroling down the menu under picture. Happy crocheting!

For those of us who don't understand the diagrams, how about doing it old-fashioned way and printing instructions. I was going t o make this sweater until I saw there were no written instructions

Dear Maureen, you will find here how to read diagrams - remember to follow the written pattern at the same time. Happy crocheting!
