---------------------------------------------------------- EXPLANATION FOR THE PATTERN: ---------------------------------------------------------- GARTER STITCH (back and forth): Knit all rows. 1 ridge vertically = knit 2 rows. SHORT ROWS 1 (applies to first neck edge worked): Begin from right side and work as follows: * 1 ridge in garter stitch back and forth over the first 4 stitches, 1 ridge in garter stitch over all 5 stitches *, work from *-* 3 times in total. SHORT ROWS 2 (applies to second neck edge worked): Beginning from wrong side and work as follows: * 1 ridge in garter stitch back and forth over the first 4 stitches, 1 ridge in garter stitch over all 5 stitches *, work from *-* 3 times in total, then knit 1 row from wrongside over all 5 stitches. INCREASE TIP (evenly): To calculate how to increase evenly, use the total number of stitches on row (e.g. 62 stitches), minus neck edges/bands (e.g. 10 stitches) and divide the remaining stitches by number of increases to be done (e.g. 12) = 4.3. In this example increase by making 1 yarn over after approx. every 4th stitch (do not increase over neck edges/bands). On next row work yarn overs twisted to avoid holes. DECREASE TIP (evenly): To calculate how to decrease evenly, use the total number of stitches on row (e.g. 54 stitches) and divide stitches by number of decreases to be done (e.g. 14) = 3.9. In this example decrease by knitting approx. every 3rd and 4th stitch together. STRIPES YOKE: Work stripes in stockinette stitch, top down as explained below but work the 5 outermost stitches in each side in garter stitch (= neck edges). 9-10-10-11-11-12 cm = 3½"-4"-4"-4⅜"-4⅜"-4¾" with color 10, fog, 9-10-10-11-11-12 cm = 3½"-4"-4"-4⅜"-4⅜"-4¾" with color 22, yellow, 0-0-2-2-4-4 cm = 0"-0"-¾"-¾"-1½"-1½" with color 06, black STRIPES BODY: Work stripes in stockinette stitch, top down as explained below but work the 5 outermost stitches in each side in garter stitch (= bands). 9-10-8-9-7-8 cm = 3½"-4"-3⅛"-3½"-2¾"-3⅛" with color 06, black (i.e. the stripe in black is 9-10-10-11-11-12 cm = 3½"-4"-4"-4⅜"-4⅜"-4¾" in total including rounds from yoke), 9-10-10-11-11-12 cm = 3½"-4"-4"-4⅜"-4⅜"-4¾" with color 03, pearl grey, 12-10-12-10-12-10 cm = 4¾"-4"-4¾"-4"-4¾"-4" (or until finished measurements) with color 16, blue. STRIPES SLEEVE: Work stripes in stockinette stitch, top down as follows: 13-13-11-11-9-9 cm = 5⅛"-5⅛"-4⅜"-4⅜"-3½"-3½" with color 06, black (i.e. the stripe in black is 13 cm = 5⅛" in all sizes including rounds from yoke), 13-13-13-13-13-13 cm = 5⅛"- 5⅛"- 5⅛"- 5⅛"- 5⅛"- 5⅛"- with color 03, pearl grey, 20-19-20-18-19-18 cm = 8"-7½"-8"-7"-7½"-7" (or until finished measurements) with color 16, blue. V-NECK: All increases are done from the right side. Increase 1 stitch on the inside of 5 band stitches by making 1 yarn over after the 5 band stitches at the beginning of row and before the 5 band stitches at the end of row. On next row (wrong side) purl yarn overs twisted to avoid holes. Then work the new stitches in stockinette stitch. RAGLAN: All increases are done from the right side. Increase 1 stitch on each side of the 4 markers in every transition between sleeves and body as follows: Work until 1 stitch remains before marker, make 1 yarn over, knit 2 (marker is between these 2 stitches), make 1 yarn over (= 2 stitches increased at the marker and 8 stitches increased in total on row.) On next row (wrong side) purl yarn overs twisted to avoid holes. Then work the new stitches in stockinette stitch. BUTTONHOLES: Decrease for buttonholes on right band (when garment is worn). Decrease from right side when 3 stitches remain on row as follows: Make 1 yarn over, knit the next 2 stitches together, knit last stitch. On next row knit yarn over to make holes. Decrease first buttonhole when approx. 1 cm has been worked after last increase for V-neck. Then decrease the next 2 buttonholes approx. 10 cm apart. ---------------------------------------------------------- START THE PIECE HERE: ---------------------------------------------------------- JACKET - SHORT OVERVIEW OF THE PIECE: First work 2 loose neck edges. Slip these on the circular needle when casting on stitches for neck as explained in pattern (sew neck edges together mid back later and then sew neck line at the back of neck). Then work yoke back and forth on circular needle from mid front, work top down. AT THE SAME TIME increase V-neck and raglan. Now divide yoke for body and sleeves. Work body back and forth from mid front, top down. Work sleeves in the round on double pointed needles/short circular needle, top down. NECK EDGE: Cast on 5 stitches on needle size 5.5 mm = US 9 with fog and work in GARTER STITCH back and forth – read explanation above (1st row = right side). When neck edge measures approx. 6-6-6-7-7-7 cm = 2⅜"-2⅜"-2⅜"-2¾"-2¾"-2¾", work SHORT ROWS 1 – read explanation above. When the short rows have been worked as explained above, continue in garter stitch back and forth over all 5 stitches for 6 cm = 2¾" in all sizes, finish after a row knit with from wrong side (the entire neck edge measures approx. 14-14-14-15-15-15 cm = 5½"-5½"-5½"-6"-6"-6" along the shortest edge) cut the yarn and put neck edge aside. Work another neck edge the same way, but when neck edge measures approx. 6-6-6-7-7-7 cm = 2⅜"-2⅜"-2⅜"-2¾"-2¾"-2¾", work SHORT ROWS 2 – read explanation above. When the short rows have been worked as explained above, continue in garter stitch back and forth over all 5 stitches for 6 cm = 2⅜" in all sizes, finish after a row with knit from right side (the entire neck edge measures approx. 14-14-14-15-15-15 cm = 5½"-5½"-5½"-6"-6"-6" along the shortest edge). Place stitches on circular needle size 5.5 mm = US 9, do not cut the yarn, but cast on 52-52-56-58-54-54 stitches on same circular needle straight after neck edge and knit from the right side over the 5 stitches from the other neck edge = 62-62-66-68-64-64 stitches on needle. Knit 1 row from wrong side over all stitches. Knit 1 row from right side while increasing 12-12-8-10-14-22 stitches evenly - read INCREASE TIP = 74-74-74-78-78-86 stitches on needle. Knit 1 row from wrong side (work neck edges in garter stitch as before). Then work yoke as explained below. YOKE: READ ALL OF THE FOLLOWING SECTION ON YOKE BEFORE WORKING! Insert 4 marker in piece as follows (without working the stitches): Count 7 stitches (= front piece), insert 1 marker before next stitch, count 12 stitches (= sleeve), insert 1 marker before next stitch, count 36-36-36-40-40-48 stitches (= back piece), insert 1 marker before next stitch, count 12 stitches (= sleeve), insert 1 marker before next stitch. 7 stitches remain in all sizes after last marker (= front piece). Work STRIPES YOKE - see explanation above. AT THE SAME TIME on first row (right side) increase for V-NECK and RAGLAN – see explanation above. REMEMBER THE KNITTING GAUGE! Increase like this for V-neck (2 stitches) and raglan (8 stitches) on every other row (i.e. every row from right side) 18-20-22-24-26-28 times in total = 254-274-294-318-338-366 stitches. After last increase for V-neck and raglan, piece measures approx. 22-24-26-28-30-32 cm = 8¾"-9½"-10¼"-11"-11¾"-12½" from shoulder. If the garment is shorter than this, continue until correct measurements without increases. Remember BUTTONHOLES on right band - read explanation above. Work next row as follows from wrong side: Work 42-45-47-51-55-60 stitches in garter stitch and stockinette stitch as before (= front piece), slip the next 48-52-58-62-64-68 stitches on 1 stitch holder for sleeve, cast on 6-6-8-8-10-10 new stitches on row (= in the side under sleeve), purl 74-80-84-92-100-110 stitches (= back piece), slip the next 48-52-58-62-64-68 stitches on 1 stitch holder for sleeve, cast on 6-6-8-8-10-10 new stitches on row (= in the side under sleeve) and work the 42-45-47-51-55-60 stitches in stockinette stitch and garter stitch as before (= front piece). Finish body and sleeves separately. NOW MEASURE THE PIECE FROM HERE! BODY: = 170-182-194-210-230-250 stitches. Work STRIPES BODY - see explanation above. Remember BUTTONHOLES on right band! When piece measures 23 cm = 9" from division in all sizes, knit 1 row from wrong side (work bands in garter stitch) while increasing 6 stitches evenly - read INCREASE TIP = 176-188-200-216-236-256 stitches. Switch to circular needle size 4.5 mm = US 7. Work next row as follows from right side (with blue): 5 band stitches in garter stitch, * knit 2, purl 2 *, repeat from *-* until 7 stitches remain on needle, knit 2 and finish with 5 band stitches in garter stitch. Continue rib like this for 6 cm = 2⅜". Loosely bind off stitches with knit over knit and purl over purl. To avoid a tight bind-off edge you may use circular needle size 5.5 mm = US 9. Jacket measures approx. 52-54-56-58-60-62 cm = 20½"-21¼"-22"-22¾"-23⅝"-24⅜" from shoulder and down. SLEEVE: Slip the 48-52-58-62-64-68 stitches from stitch holder in one side of piece double pointed needles/a short circular needle size 5.5 mm = US 9 and pick in addition up 1 stitch in each of the 6-6-8-8-10-10 new stitches cast on under sleeve = 54-58-66-70-74-78 stitches. Work STRIPES SLEEVE - see explanation above. When piece measures 40-39-38-36-35-34 cm = 15¾"-15¼"-15"-14¼"-13¾"-13⅜" from division (or at desired length – approx. 6 cm = 2⅜" remain until finished measurements), knit 1 round while decreasing 14-18-22-26-26-30 stitches evenly – read DECREASE TIP = 40-40-44-44-48-48 stitches. Switch to double pointed needles size 4.5 mm = US 7. Work rib in the round = knit 2/purl 2 for 6 cm = 2⅜" with blue. Loosely bind off stitches with knit over knit and purl over purl. To avoid a tight bind-off edge you may use double pointed needles size 5.5 mm = US 9. Sleeve measures approx. 46-45-44-42-41-40 cm = 18"-17¾"-17¼"-16½"-16⅛"-15¾" from division. Work the other sleeve the same way. ASSEMBLY: Sew the buttons on to the left band. Sew neck edge together mid back so that seam is facing inwards. Stretch neck edge slightly and sew neck edge to neck line in the back of neck. |

Hola, gracias por el patrón. Quería comentarles que este patrón tiene varios errores en la versión español, por ej: se tejen 6cm de cenefa antes de las filas acortadas, no están los cm tejidos después de las filas acortadas, el orden de los marcadores está desordenado, debería ser delantero, manga, espalda, manga, delantero. Rectifique las instrucciones del patrón en el idioma original, ya que no entendía cómo seguir las instrucciones. Gracias

I would like to make this in a different color way. If I replaced Blue 16 with Heather 14, kept the Pearl grey 03 then replaced Black 06 with Ruby Red 07 what would you suggest for the last 2 colors? Pink 24 & Off white 01 or maybe Pink sand 33? Thanks

Skal striberne på ærmerne være længere end på kroppen?
18.10.2020 - 17:13DROPS Design answered:
Hei Karin. Ja, de er litt lengre. Du finner målene i oppskriften, både til bærestykket, bolen og ermene. God Fornøyelse!

Könnte es sein, dass ein Fehler sich eingeschlichen hat? Halsblende am Ende: 74-74-74-78-78-86. FÜR L sind dann 74 Maschen auf dem Nadel. Danach muss mann für die Pässe 38 Maschen für den Rückenteil abzählen. Dafür bräuchte man dann aber 76 Maschen statt 74.
13.07.2020 - 13:54DROPS Design answered:
Liebe Francina, es sieht so aus, am besten nehmen Sie 10 Maschen (und nicht nur 8 M) damit Sie 76 M für die Passe haben - eine Korrektur erfolgt sicher nach den Sommerferien. Viel Spaß beim stricken!

Hello, how much yarn (Air) is needed if knitted in one colour only? 16 balls seems a lot...Thank you!
26.06.2020 - 16:01DROPS Design answered:
Dear Mrs Janssen, this jacket has been worked with stripes, we therefore do not have the amount of yarn in one colour - you can add all colours but you will probably request less - check other patterns with Air to compare and request help from your DROPS store - even per mail or telephone. Happy knitting!
