------------------------------------------------------- EXPLANATIONS FOR THE PATTERN: ------------------------------------------------------- RIDGE/GARTER STITCH (worked back and forth): Knit all rows. 1 ridge in height = Knit 2 rows. PATTERN: See diagram A.1. The diagram shows all rows in the pattern seen from the right side. INCREASE TIP (for sides of body and mid under sleeves): All increases are worked from the right side! Work as far as the stitch with the marker, make 1 yarn over, work the stitch with the marker in garter stitch as before, 1 yarn over (= 2 stitches increased at marker). On the next row/round work the yarn overs twisted to avoid holes. The new stitches are worked into A.1 as you go. BUTTONHOLES: Work buttonholes on the right band. 1 BUTTONHOLE = start from the right side and knit together the 3rd and 4th stitch from the edge then make 1 yarn over. On the next row (wrong side) knit the yarn over = hole. Work buttonholes when the piece measures: XS: 2, 8, 14½, 20½, 27 and 34 cm S: 2, 8½, 15, 21½, 28 and 35 cm M: 2, 9, 16, 23, 30 and 36 cm L: 2, 9, 16, 23, 30 and 38 cm XL: 2, 9, 16½, 23½, 31 and 39 cm XXL: 2, 9½, 17, 24½, 32 and 40 cm NOTE: The last buttonhole is worked on the neck. ------------------------------------------------------- START THE PIECE HERE: ------------------------------------------------------- JACKET – SHORT OVERVIEW OF THE PIECE: The body is worked back and forth with circular needle, bottom up as far as the armholes. You then cast off for armholes and the back and front pieces are finished separately back and forth. The sleeves are worked in the round with double pointed needles/short circular needle, bottom up to the beginning of the sleeve cap. Then the sleeve cap is worked back and forth with circular needle to finish. The piece is sewn together at the shoulders and the sleeves are sewn in. The neck is worked in rib to finish. BODY: Cast on 137-153-163-177-195-217 stitches (including 5 band stitches on each side towards mid front) with circular needle size 4 mm and Brushed Alpaca Silk. Purl 1 row (= wrong side). The next row is worked as follows from the right side: Work 5 band stitches in GARTER STITCH – read description above, * knit 1, purl 1 *, work from *-* until there are 6 stitches left on the row, knit 1 and finish with 5 band stitches in garter stitch. Continue this rib for 4 cm – remember BUTTONHOLES on the right band – read description above. When the rib is finished, change to circular needle size 5 mm. Insert 1 marker in the 37th-41st-43rd-47th-51st-57th stitch in from each side (i.e. in a purled stitch seen from the right side). There are 63-71-77-83-93-103 stitches on the back piece between the stitches with markers. The markers should follow upwards in the piece; they will be used when increasing in the sides of the body. The next row is worked as follows from the right side: Work 5 band stitches in garter stitch, A.1A until there are 6 stitches left on the row, A.1B (= 1 stitch) and finish with 5 band stitches in garter stitch. Continue this pattern. REMEMBER THE KNITTING TENSION! When the piece measures 5 cm, increase 1 stitch on each side of both markers – read INCREASE TIP (= 4 stitches increased). Increase like this every 5-5-6-6-6-7 cm a total of 4 times on each side = 153-169-179-193-211-233 stitches. Continue working without further increases until the piece measures 26-27-28-29-30-31 cm. Now cast off for the armholes on the next row as follows: Work 38-41-43-47-51-57 stitches as before (= front piece), cast off 5-7-7-7-7-7 stitches for the armhole (stitch with marker in the middle of these 5-7-7-7-7-7 stitches), work 67-73-79-85-95-105 stitches as before, cast off 5-7-7-7-7-7 stitches for the armhole and then work the remaining 38-41-43-47-51-57 stitches as before (= front piece). Finish the back and front pieces separately as described below. BACK PIECE: = 67-73-79-85-95-105 stitches. Continue A.1 back and forth as before and cast off for the armholes at the beginning of each row on each side as follows: Cast off 3 stitches 0-0-0-0-1-1 times, 2 stitches 0-1-2-2-2-3 times and 1 stitch 1-2-2-2-3-5 times = 65-65-67-73-75-77 stitches left. When the piece measures 41-43-45-47-49-51 cm, cast off the middle 23-23-25-25-25-27 stitches for the neck and each shoulder is finished separately. Continue A.1 and cast off 2 stitches on the next row from the neck = 19-19-19-22-23-23 stitches left on shoulder. Work until there is 1 row left before the piece measures 44-46-48-50-52-54 cm. Knit 1 row from the wrong side. Then cast off with knit from the right side. Work the other shoulder in the same way. RIGHT FRONT PIECE: = 38-41-43-47-51-57 stitches. Continue A.1 back and forth as before with 5 band stitches in garter stitch towards mid front. AT THE SAME TIME cast off for the armhole at the beginning of each row from the side as follows: Cast off 3 stitches 0-0-0-0-1-1 time, 2 stitches 0-1-2-2-2-3 times and 1 stitch 1-2-2-2-3-5 times. AT THE SAME TIME when the piece measures 32-33-34-36-37-38 cm, place the outermost 8-8-8-8-8-9 stitches towards mid front on 1 thread for the neck; to avoid cutting the strand work the stitches before placing them on the thread. Continue A.1 and cast off at the beginning of each row from the neck as follows: Cast off 2 stitches 3 times and 1 stitch 4-4-4-5-4-5 times. After all the decreases for armhole and neck have been finished there are 19-19-19-22-23-23 stitches left on the shoulder. Work until there is 1 row left before the piece measures 44-46-48-50-52-54 cm. Knit 1 row from the wrong side then loosely cast off with knit from the right side. LEFT FRONT PIECE: = 38-41-43-47-51-57 stitches. Continue A.1 back and forth as before with 5 band stitches in garter stitch towards mid front. AT THE SAME TIME cast off for the armhole at the beginning of each row from the side as follows: Cast off 3 stitches 0-0-0-0-1-1 time, 2 stitches 0-1-2-2-2-3 times and 1 stitch 1-2-2-2-3-5 times. AT THE SAME TIME when the piece measures 32-33-34-36-37-38 cm, place the outermost 8-8-8-8-8-9 stitches mid front on 1 thread for the neck. Continue A.1 and cast off for the neck at the beginning of each row from the neck as follows: Cast off 2 stitches 3 times and 1 stitch 4-4-4-5-4-5 times. After all the decreases for armhole and neck have been finished there are 19-19-19-22-23-23 stitches left on the shoulder. Work until there is 1 row left before the piece measures 44-46-48-50-52-54 cm. Knit 1 row from the wrong side. Then loosely cast off with knit from the right side. SLEEVE: Cast on 42-46-46-50-52-54 stitches with double pointed needles size 4 mm and Brushed Alpaca Silk. Knit 1 round then work rib in the round (= knit 1/ purl 1) for 4 cm. Change to double pointed needles size 5 mm and insert a marker in the last stitch on the round (= 1 purled stitch). Work A.1A in the round with knit over knit and garter stitch over purl. When the piece measures 6-6-6-6-8-8 cm, increase 1 stitch on each side of the stitch with the marker – read INCREASE TIP. Increase like this every 2½-2½-1½-1½-1-1 cm a total of 6-6-8-8-10-10 times = 54-58-62-66-72-74 stitches. Continue working until the sleeve measures 22-21-20-20-19-18 cm but finish the round when there are still 2-3-3-3-3-3 stitches left before the stitch with the marker. NOTE: Shorter measurements in larger sizes due to broader shoulders and longer sleeve cap. On the next round cast off the first 7 stitches, then continue with pattern as before to the end of the round. Now work the sleeve cap back and forth with circular needle as follows: Continue A.1 as before and cast off for the sleeve cap at the beginning of each row on both sides as follows: Cast off 2 stitches 2-3-3-3-3-3 times on each side and 1 stitch 1-2-2-2-2-4 times on each side. Then cast off 2 stitches on each side until the sleeve measures 27-28-28-28-28-29 cm. Cast off 3 stitches 1 time on each side and then cast off the remaining stitches. The sleeve measures approx. 28-29-29-29-29-30 cm from the top down. Work the other sleeve in the same way. ASSEMBLY: Sew the shoulder seams inside the cast-off edge. Sew in the sleeves, inside the 1 edge stitch. NECK: Knit up from the right side approx. 83 to 99 stitches around the neck (including the stitches from the threads in front) with circular needle size 4 mm and Brushed Alpaca Silk. Start from the wrong side and work as follows: 5 band stitches in garter stitch, * purl 1, knit 1 *, work from *-* until there are 6 stitches left on the row, purl 1 and finish with 5 band stitches in garter stitch. Continue this rib with knit over knit, purl over purl and garter stitch over garter stitch; remember to work the last buttonhole in the neck. Work until the neck measures 3½ to 4 cm. Cast off with knit over knit, purl over purl and garter stitch over garter stitch. ASSEMBLY: Sew the buttons onto the left band. |

Bonjour, Je désire faire votre modèle -le City Streets:210-18. La laine utilisée, DROPS BRUSHED ALPACA SILK sera beaucoup trop fragile pour la personne a qui sera destiné ce gilet et trop chère pour moi en fournitures. Pouvez-vous me conseiller une autre laine pour le tricoter? D'avance merci pour votre réponse. Cordialement
27.02.2022 - 18:07DROPS Design answered:
Bonjour Mme Simonnet, utilisez notre convertisseur pour voir les alternatives possibles (soit 2 fils du groupe A, soit 1 fil du groupe C), rappelez-vous juste que deux laines d'une texture différente donneront un résultat différent. Votre magasin saura vous conseiller, même par mail ou téléphone, la meilleure alternative correspondant à vos besoins. Bon tricot!

Hi, I am trying to knit the cardigan but dont really understand the pattern. Is A.1.A one row of knit stitches, the next one(WS), k1, p1?
14.02.2022 - 18:06DROPS Design answered:
Dear Emmy, correct; A.1A is a rib worked with (1 stitch in stocking stitch, 1 stitch in garter stitch), from RS you will knit all sts and from WS work P1,K1. Happy knitting!

Bonjour, Je tricote ce gilet que j'aime beaucoup pour la seconde fois mais j'ai toujours le même souci au moment de faire les augmentations des manches (que je fais en Magic loops mais je ne pense pas que ça change le problème). Le marqueur étant sur la dernière maille du rang, le deuxième jeté se retrouve au niveau du changement d'aiguilles... Est ce que la solution est de décaler l'augmentation de 2 mailles ? Je ne sais pas si je suis très claire... Merci d'avance. Aurélie
27.01.2022 - 23:03DROPS Design answered:
Bonjour Aurélie, non tout est bien juste ainsi, vous augmentez de chaque côté de la dernière maille du tour: le jeté avant cette maille est la nouvelle avant-dernière maille du tour et le jeté après cette maille est la nouvelle première maille du tour. En fonction de votre façon de répartir les mailles, vous pouvez effectivement commencer la nouvelle aiguille par 1 jeté si besoin. Bon tricot!

Then cast off 2 stitches on each side until the sleeve measures 27-28-28-28-28-29 cm Here I work back and forth with needles and decrease 2 stitches and the start and end of row ( 4 stitch decrease). The next row you decrease 4 stitches again? Because if so I do not have enough stitches to make it 27cm... I am a bit confused when to castoff. Thank you!
25.01.2022 - 15:04DROPS Design answered:
Dear Carolina, not exactly, you have now to cast off 2 sts at the beginning of every row, both from right side and from wrong side (so that sleeve is symmetrical) until the piece measures 27 cm, just make sure you have cast off the same number of sts on each side. Happy knitting!

Forstår dessverre ikke diagrammet, er det en rad rett, en rad vrang, så en rad rett og vrang annenhver maske? Og så starter det forfra igjen? Trenger og forklaring på A 1 B.. Veldig fin jakke håper eg klarer å strikke den 🤞 🤩
16.01.2022 - 19:12DROPS Design answered:
Hei Gunhild, Du leser diagrammer fra bunnen opp og fra høyre til venstre. 1. omgang: Bare rett siden begge diagrammene er rett på første rad.. Omgang 2: 5 stolpemasker i rille, 1 rett, 1 vrang fram til det er 6 masker igjen, 1 rett og 5 stolpemasker i rille. Omgang 3: Rett. God fornøyelse!

Jeg er simpelthen i tvivl, om jeg strikker mønster korrekt. Er det skiftevis ret og vrang fra retsiden og så ene vrangmasker retur over hele vrangsiden?
10.01.2022 - 21:24DROPS Design answered:
Hej Louise, ja hver 2.pind er ret fra retsiden og den anden pind er skiftevis 1ret, 1 vrang fra vrangen :)

Wie viele Maschen bleiben bei den Aermeln am Schluss der Armkugel noch übrig zum Abketten. Es steht zwar wie lange die Armkugel werden soll, ich möchte jedoch einen Anhaltspunkt haben von der Maschenzahl, die noch abgekettet werden muss.
03.01.2022 - 17:20DROPS Design answered:
Liebe Frau Imhof, die Maschenanzahl, die nach alle Abketten übrig ist, ist hier nicht wichtig und wird unterschiedlich nach Ihrer Reihenanzhal für 10 cm sein. Was aber wichtig ist, ist die Länge vom Armkugel. Ketten Sie dann 2 Maschen am Anfang jeder Reihe bis die Ärmel die richtige Länge misst, beachten Sie nur, daß Sie genausoviele Maschen beidstitig abgekettet haben. Viel Spaß beim stricken!

Est-il possible de tricoter ce modèle en doublant la laine avec un second fil (différent de la brushed alpaca Silk), afin de le rendre plus chaud? Si oui, quelle association de fil conseillez-vous et avec quelle taille d’aiguilles les tricoter (par exemple, brushed alpaca Silk + nord fonctionnerait-il?) Merci
06.12.2021 - 00:43DROPS Design answered:
Bonjour Claire, probablement, mais vous risqueriez de ne plus avoir le bon échantillon de 17 mailles x 22 rangs en point texturé pour 10 cm de côté. Retrouvez par exemple ici Delight (groupe A comme Nord) et Brushed Alpaca Silk. Bon tricot!

In the pattern that I downloaded, it did not give the number of skeins per size. Please advise.
03.11.2021 - 19:10DROPS Design answered:
Dear Deanne, the pattern tells you that you need "DROPS BRUSHED ALPACA SILK from Garnstudio (belongs to yarn group C) 125-125-150-150-175-175 g colour 21, sage green" Given that Brushed Alpaca Silk comes in 25 gramms balls, that makes 5, 6 or 7 balls. Happy stitching!
