------------------------------------------------------- EXPLANATIONS FOR THE PATTERN: ------------------------------------------------------- PATTERN: See diagrams A.1 to A.6. Choose diagram for your size (applies to A.4 and A.5). The diagrams show all rows in the pattern seen from the right side. DECREASE TIP (for mid under sleeve): Work until there are 3 stitches left before the marker thread, knit 2 together, knit 2 (marker thread sits between these 2 stitches), slip 1 stitch as if to knit, knit 1 and pass the slipped stitch over the knitted stitch. CASTING-OFF TIP: To avoid the cast-off edge being tight you can cast off with a larger size needle. If the edge is still tight, make 1 yarn over after approx. each 4th stitch at the same time as casting off and the yarn overs are cast off as normal stitches. ------------------------------------------------------- START THE PIECE HERE: ------------------------------------------------------- JACKET – SHORT OVERVIEW OF THE PIECE: The piece is worked back and forth with circular needle from mid front to mid back in 2 parts, which are sewn together mid back. The sleeves are worked top down. First the sleeve cap is worked back and forth with circular needle then the sleeve is continued in the round with double pointed needles/short circular needle. The sleeves are sewn into the body to finish. LEFT FRONT AND BACK PIECE: Cast on 157-157-173-173-187-187 stitches with circular needle size 4.5 mm and Cotton Merino. The first row is worked as follows from the right side: Work A.1 (= 9 stitches), A.2A until there are 10 stitches left on the row, A.2B (= 1 stitch) and finish with A.3 (= 9 stitches). Continue this pattern. REMEMBER THE KNITTING TENSION! When A.2 has been completed, work the next row from the right side as follows: Continue A.1 as before, work A.4 (= 25-25-29-29-31-31 stitches), A.5 over the next 114-114-126-126-138-138 stitches (= 3 repeats of 38-38-42-42-46-46 stitches) and continue A.3 over the last stitches as before. Continue this pattern back and forth until the piece measures 46-47-48-49-50-51 cm. On the next row from the right side cast off for the armhole as follows: Work the first 81-79-93-91-103-101 stitches as before, cast off the next 36-38-40-42-44-46 stitches and work the last 40 stitches as before. On the next row (wrong side), cast on 36-38-40-42-44-46 new stitches over the cast-off stitches for the armhole and continue the pattern back and forth as before. When the piece measures 63-65-67-69-71-73 cm change to circular needle size 4 mm and knit 1 row from the wrong side and knit 1 row from the right side. Now work a gusset in garter stitch with short rows, so the edge of the jacket lies neatly at the back of the neck. Start from the wrong side and work as follows: Knit the first 39 stitches, turn the piece, tighten the strand and knit back. Turn, knit the first 36 stitches, turn, tighten the strand and knit back. Continue working 3 fewer stitches each time you turn until you have worked back and forth over the last 3 stitches. Knit 1 row from the wrong side over all stitches. Cast off with knit from the right side – read CASTING OFF TIP! Cast-off edge = mid back. RIGHT FRONT AND BACK PIECE: Cast on the same number of stitches and work in the same way as for the left front and back piece until the piece measures 46-47-48-49-50-51 cm. On the next row from the right side, cast off for the armhole as follows: Work the first 40 stitches as before, cast off the next 36-38-40-42-44-46 stitches and work the last 81-79-93-91-103-101 stitches as before. On the next row cast on 36-38-40-42-44-46 stitches over the cast-off stitches and continue the pattern back and forth as before and in the same way as for the left front and back piece, until the piece measures 63-65-67-69-71-73 cm. Change to circular needle size 4 mm. Knit 1 row from the wrong side. Now work the gusset as follows: Start from the right side and knit the first 39 stitches, turn, tighten the strand and knit back. Turn and knit the first 36 stitches, turn, tighten the strand and knit back. Continue working 3 fewer stitches each time you turn until you have worked back and forth over the last 3 stitches. Knit 1 row from the right side and knit 1 row from the wrong side over all stitches. Cast off with knit from the right side. SLEEVE: The sleeve is worked top down. The sleeve cap is worked first, back and forth with circular needle. Then the sleeve is worked in the round with short circular needle; change to double pointed needles when necessary. Cast on 28-32-36-40-44-48 stitches with short circular needle size 4.5 mm. Work stocking stitch back and forth and AT THE SAME TIME cast on 5 stitches at the end of each row a total of 4 times on each side = 68-72-76-80-84-88 stitches. The piece now measures approx. 3 cm from the cast-on edge. Insert 1 marker thread at the beginning of the row. Join the piece and work stocking stitch in the round and allow the thread to follow your work onwards. When the piece measures 3-3-3-3-2-2 cm from the join, decrease 2 stitches mid under sleeve – read DECREASE TIP. Decrease like this every 3½-3-2½-2½-2½-2 cm a total of 10-11-12-13-14-15 times = 48-50-52-54-56-58 stitches. Continue working until the piece measures 38 cm from the join in all sizes (there are 4 cm left to finished length; try the sleeve on and continue to desired length). Change to double pointed needles size 4 mm and work A.6 in the round. Cast off with knit – remember CASTING-OFF TIP! The sleeve measures approx. 42 cm from the cast-on edge down in all sizes. Work one more sleeve in the same way. ASSEMBLY: Sew the 2 parts together mid back, inside the cast-off edge – sew with grafting stitches. Sew in the sleeves. |

In the finishing of the left front and back piece, it says change to 4mm needles and knit one row from the right side and knit one row from the wrong side. Are these rows knitted in pattern or should they be knitted in garter stitch?

Hi Bernice, you should work this part in garter stitch. Happy knitting!

Are there written instructions for this pattern I do not like working form charts but I love the design
22.05.2021 - 19:18DROPS Design answered:
Dear Patricia, we do not have the written out version not only because out patterns are available in many languages, but also because we believe that with charts you can not only see the very next step, but also the bigger picture, as in how stitches and rows relate to each other. However we do have a lesson about how to read our charts HERE, and you can always ask for help (either in person or ver the phone) in the store where you bought your DROPS yarn from. Happy Knitting!

Bitte um Hilfe, wenn ich das Muster A5 ansehe, haben die ersten 13 Maschen1 Reihe mehr im Rapport. Wie stricke ich dann die restlichen Maschen?
23.02.2021 - 17:07DROPS Design answered:
Liebe Frau Reisinger, ja genau, die ersten 13 Maschen werden über 2 Reihen mehr in der Höhe als die restlichen Maschen wiederholt. Wenn Sie die ersten 8-10 Reihen (siehe Größe) gestrickt haben, sind noch 2 Reihen übrig über nur die ersten Maschen, bei der nächsten Reihe stricken Sie die nächste Reihe über die 13 Maschen und die restlichen Maschen beginnen Sie vom Anfang an wieder. Viel Spaß beim stricken!

Wenn ich das Muster lese und bei A1 - A2A - A2B und A3 angekommen bin, stricke ich die Rückrunde dann wie? Wieder bei A1 anfangen oder von A3 zu A1 spiegelverkehrt zurück? Danke für eine Einstiegshilfe...

Liebe Paula, wenn Sie bei den Hinreihen so stricken: A.1, A.2A wiederholen, A.2B und A.3 (die Diagramme werden rechts nach links gelesen bzw gestrickt); bei den Rückreihen stricken Sie: A.3, A.2B, A.2A wiederholen, A.1 (die Diagramme werden jetzt links nach rechts gelesen bzw gestrickt). Hier lesen Sie mehr über Diagramme. Viel Spaß beim stricken!

Jeg er nået til der hvor A1 - A4 - A5 - A3 skal strikkes på det første for/bagstykke .. når jeg har strikket A4 som afsluttes med 4 vrang fra retten, så starter A5 med 4 vrang fra retten. Er det meningen da det er det eneste sted hvor der dermed kommer 8 vrang fra retten på en gang ? Jeg strikker str XXL

Hej, Jag förstår inte hur jag ska sticka mönster A.5 varv 9 och 10. Ska de tretton maskorna på varven upprepas eller ska man sticka resterande maskor från varv 1?
14.08.2020 - 21:35DROPS Design answered:
Hej Matilda, ja de 13 maskorna skall upprepas i höjden efter de första 10 varven, de resterende maskor skall upprepas i højden efter 8 varv i højden. Lycka till :)

PÅ for-og bakstykke mønster A4 ogA5. Hvordan skal man strikke omgang 9 og 10 på mønster A5? jeg skjønner det ikke da mønsteret skal gjentas tre ganger på hver omgang. mønsteret skal jo også strikkes til arbeidet måler47cm.
08.05.2020 - 11:16DROPS Design answered:
Hej Marit, mønsteret som går over de yderste 13 masker i siden, skal gentages ifølge diagrammet efter 10.pind. De andre masker i diagrammet, gentages efter 8.pind. God fornøjelse!

Trying to knit first row and repeating A1,A2 till 10 stitches left but it does not work out can you tell me what is wrong. Starting with 157 stitches leaves 14 stitches 10 stitches I can account for. Is there an error in pattern
17.04.2020 - 23:46DROPS Design answered:
Dear Cindy, work the 157 stitches as follows: A.1 (= 9 stitches), then repeaet A.2A until 10 stitches remain (= 69 times in total over the next 138 sts), work now A.2B (= 1 stitch) and finish with A.3 (= 9 stitches), you have now: 9 + 138 + 1 + 9 = 157 sts. Happy knitting!

I really love this piece, but would need to size it down as the person I want to make it for is very petite. Is it possible for you to add the numbers for size XXS? She is 5ft1, and 105 lbs. Thank you.
