---------------------------------------------------------- EXPLANATION FOR THE PATTERN: ---------------------------------------------------------- GARTER STITCH (back and forth): Knit all rows. 1 ridge vertically = knit 2 rows. PATTERN: See diagrams A.1 to A.3. INCREASE TIP (applies to sides of body): Work until 2 stitches remain before marker thread, 1 yarn over, knit 4 (marker thread is in the middle of these stitches), 1 yarn over = 4 stitches increased. On next row purl yarn overs twisted to avoid holes. Then work the new stitches in stockinette stitch. RAGLAN: Increase 1 stitch on each side of 2 knit stitches in every transition between body and sleeves (= 8 stitches increased on row). Increase 1 stitch by making 1 yarn over. On next row purl yarn overs twisted to avoid holes. Then work the new stitches in stockinette stitch. DECREASE TIP (applies to sleeves): Decrease 1 stitch on each side of marker thread as follows: Work until 3 stitches remain before marker thread, knit 2 together, knit 2 stitches (marker thread is between these stitches), slip 1 stitch knitwise, knit 1, pass slipped stitch over stitch worked = 2 stitches decreased. 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 rib in neck measures approx. 2 cm = ¾". Then decrease the next 6-6-6-7-7-7, approx. 7-8-8-8-8-9 cm = 2¾"-3⅛"-3⅛"-3⅛"-3⅛"-3½" between each. ---------------------------------------------------------- START THE PIECE HERE: ---------------------------------------------------------- JACKET - SHORT OVERVIEW OF THE PIECE: Work neck edge and yoke back and forth on circular needle from mid front, work top down. Now divide yoke for body and sleeves. Work body back and forth on circular needle from mid front, top down. Work sleeves in the round on double pointed needles/a short circular needle, top down. NECK EDGE: Cast on 73-73-77-77-81-81 stitches (including 5 band stitches in each side towards mid front) on circular needle size 7 mm = US 10,75 with 1 strand Brushed Alpaca Silk + 1 strand Alpaca (= 2 strands). Purl 1 row (= wrong side). Work next row as follows from right side: Work 5 band stitches in GARTER STITCH – read explanation above, knit 2, A.1 (= 8 stitches), knit 1, purl 0-0-1-1-2-2, knit 2, purl 1, knit 1, purl 1, knit 1, purl 1, knit 2, * purl 1, knit 1 *, repeat from *-* over the next 22-22-24-24-26-26 stitches, purl 1, knit 2, purl 1, knit 1, purl 1, knit 1, purl 1, knit 2, purl 0-0-1-1-2-2, knit 1, A.1 (= 8 stitches), knit 2, 5 stitches in garter stitch. Work until A.1 has been worked 1 time vertically - remember to decrease for BUTTONHOLES - see explanation above. Then work yoke as explained below. YOKE: Insert 4 marker threads in piece as explained below (this is done without working the stitches). Use markers when increasing for raglan. Count 17-17-18-18-19-19 stitches (= front piece), insert 1 marker, count 7 stitches (= sleeve), insert 1 marker, count 25-25-27-27-29-29 stitches (= back piece), insert 1 marker, count 7 stitches (= sleeve) and insert 1 marker. 17-17-18-18-19-19 stitches remain on row after last marker (= front piece). Switch to circular needle size 8 mm = US 11 and work from right side as follows: 5 stitches in garter stitches, knit 2, A.2, knit 1-1-2-2-3-3, 1 yarn over, knit 2, 1 yarn over, knit 5, 1 yarn over, knit 2, 1 yarn over, knit 23-23-25-25-27-27, 1 yarn over, knit 2, 1 yarn over, knit 5, 1 yarn over, knit 2, 1 yarn over, knit 1-1-2-2-3-3, A.3, knit 2, 5 stitches in garter stitch. When first row has been worked, there are 2 stitches increased in A.2 and A.3, and 8 stitches in every transition between body and sleeve (= first increase for raglan). There are now 85-85-89-89-93-93 stitches on needle. REMEMBER THE KNITTING GAUGE! Continue with A.2, A.3, stockinette stitch and bands in garter stitch and continue increase for raglan on every 2nd row (ie: every row from right side) 17-20-20-23-26-30 times in total - read explanation above. After last increase there are 213-237-241-265-293-325 stitches on needle. Continue with stockinette stitch and pattern with 5 band stitches in garter stitch in each side (without increasing) until piece measures 22-25-25-28-32-36 cm = 8¾"-9¾"-9¾"-11"-12½"-14¼" from cast-on inside bands. Work next row as follows from wrong side: Work 36-39-40-43-47-51 stitches in garter stitch, A.3 and stockinette stitch as before (= front piece), slip the next 41-47-47-53-59-67 stitches on 1 stitch holder for sleeve, cast on 6-6-8-8-8-8 new stitches on row (= in the side under sleeve), work 59-65-67-73-81-89 stitches in stockinette stitch (= back piece), slip the next 41-47-47-53-59-67 stitches on 1 stitch holder for sleeve, cast on 6-6-8-8-8-8 new stitches on row (= in the side under sleeve) and work the 36-39-40-43-47-51 stitches in stockinette stitch, A.2 and garter stitch as before (= front piece). Now finish body and sleeves separately. NOW MEASURE PIECE FROM HERE! BODY: = 143-155-163-175-191-207 stitches. Insert 1 marker thread in each side, in the middle of the new stitches that were cast on. Continue back and forth in stockinette stitch, A.2 and A.3 and 5 band stitches in garter stitch until piece measures 8 cm = 3⅛". Increase 1 stitch on each side of marker thread - read INCREASE TIP. Repeat increase when piece measures 16 and 24 cm = 6¼" and 9½" = 155-167-175-187-203-219 stitches. Continue until piece measures 34-33-35-34-32-30 cm = 13⅜"-13"-13¾"-13⅜"-12½"-11¾" from division. Switch to circular needle size 7 mm = US 10,75 and work 1 row from wrong side while decreasing 2 stitches over A.2 and 2 stitches over A.3 = 151-163-171-183-199-215 stitches. Work next row as follows from right side: 5 stitches in garter stitch, knit 2, A.1, * knit 1, purl 1 *, repeat from *-* until 16 stitches remain, knit 1, A.1, knit 2 and finish with 5 stitches in garter stitch. Continue until piece measures 40-39-41-40-38-36 cm = 15¾"-15¼"-16⅛"-15¾"-15"-14¼" from division (= approx. 6 cm = 2⅜" rib). Bind off stitches with knit over knit and purl over purl. Jacket measures approx. 66-68-70-72-74-76 cm = 26"-26¾"-27½"-18⅜"-29⅛"-30" from shoulder and down. SLEEVE: Slip the 41-47-47-53-59-67 stitches from stitch holder in one side of piece on a short circular needle/double pointed needles size 8 mm = US 11 and pick in addition up 1 stitch in each of the 6-6-8-8-8-8 stitches cast on under sleeve = 47-53-55-61-67-75 stitches. Insert 1 marker in the middle of the 6-6-8-8-8-8 stitches under sleeve. Use marker later when decreasing mid under sleeve. Work in stockinette stitch in the round. When piece measures 3 cm = 1⅛" from division, decrease 2 stitches mid under sleeve - read DECREASE TIP. Decrease like this every 4½-3½-3-2-1½-1 cm = 1¾"-1¼"-1⅛"-¾"-½"-⅜" 7-10-10-13-15-18 times in total = 33-33-35-35-37-39 stitches. Continue until sleeve measures 36-36-34-32-28-25 cm = 14¼"-14¼"-13⅜"-12½"-11"-9¾" from division (shorter measurements in the larger sizes because of wider neck and longer yoke). Switch to double pointed needles size 7 mm = US 10,75. Work rib in the round (= knit 1/purl 1) for 6 cm = 2⅜" (or desired length), on first round increase 1 stitch = 34-34-36-36-38-40 stitches. Loosely bind off stitches with knit over knit and purl over purl. Sleeve measures approx. 42-42-40-38-34-31 cm = 16½"-16½"-15¾"-15"-13⅜"-12¼" from division. Work the other sleeve the same way. ASSEMBLY: Sew the buttons on to the left band. |
