EXPLANATIONS FOR THE PATTERN:
-------------------------------------------------------
BANDS:
The outermost 5 stitches on each side towards mid-front are worked in reversed garter stitch; i.e. purled from both the right side and wrong side. In this way the bands will be visible against the garter stitch on the yoke and body, which is knitted from both sides.
INCREASE TIP (evenly spaced):
To work out how to increase evenly, count the total number of stitches on the needle (e.g. 84 stitches) minus bands (e.g. 10 stitches) and divide the remaining stitches by the number of increases to be made (e.g. 14) = 5.3.
In this example, increase by making 1 yarn over after approx. each 5th stitch. Do not increase on bands. On the next row work the yarn overs twisted to avoid holes.
RIDGE/GARTER STITCH (worked back and forth):
Knit all rows.
1 ridge in height = Knit 2 rows.
STRIPES ON YOKE AND BODY (worked in garter stitch):
6-6-7-7-7-8 cm with 1 strand ash grey Kid-Silk and 1 strand old pink Alpaca.
2-2-2-2-2-2 cm with 1 strand grey Kid-Silk and 1 strand old pink Alpaca.
9-9-10-10-10-11 cm with 1 strand beige Kid-Silk and 1 strand old pink Alpaca.
2-2-2-2-2-2 cm with 1 strand beige Kid-Silk and 1 strand blush Alpaca.
6-6-6-6-7-7 cm with 1 strand rust Kid-Silk and 1 strand blush Alpaca.
6-6-6-6-7-7 cm with 1 strand rust Kid-Silk and 1 strand nougat Alpaca.
6-6-6-6-7-7 cm with 1 strand grey Kid-Silk and 1 strand nougat Alpaca.
6-6-6-6-7-7 cm with 1 strand beige Kid-Silk and 1 strand lavender mix Alpaca.
6-6-6-6-7-7 cm with 1 strand grey Kid-Silk and 1 strand lavender mix Alpaca.
Then work with 1 strand ash grey Kid-Silk and 1 strand lavender mix Alpaca to finished length.
STRIPES ON SLEEVE (worked in stocking stitch):
6-4-5-3-1-1 cm with 1 strand rust Kid-Silk and 1 strand blush Alpaca (this stripe continues from the yoke and will measure 7 cm in total in all sizes).
7-7-7-7-7-7 cm with 1 strand rust Kid-Silk and 1 strand nougat Alpaca.
7-7-7-7-7-7 cm with 1 strand grey Kid-Silk and 1 strand nougat Alpaca.
7-7-7-7-7-7 cm with 1 strand beige Kid-Silk and 1 strand lavender mix Alpaca.
7-7-7-7-7-7 cm with 1 strand grey Kid-Silk and 1 strand lavender mix Alpaca.
Then work with 1 strand ash grey Kid-Silk and 1 strand lavender mix Alpaca to finished length.
RAGLAN:
Increase 1 stitch in the stitch before A.1 and in the stitch after A.1 – in each transition between front/back pieces and the sleeves (= 8 stitches increased on each increase-row). Marker thread sits in the middle of each A.1.
Increase 1 stitch by knitting in both the front and back loop of the same stitch. The new stitches are worked in garter stitch.
DECREASE TIP (for sleeves):
Decrease 1 stitch on either side of the marker thread as follows: 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 (= 2 stitches decreased).
BUTTONHOLES:
Work buttonholes on the right band (when the garment is worn). Work from the right side when there are 3 stitches left on the row as follows: Make 1 yarn over, purl 2 together and purl 1. On the next row (wrong side), purl the yarn over to leave a hole.
The first buttonhole is worked just after the neck. Then work the other 6-6-6-7-7-7 buttonholes with approx. 8-8-8½-7½-8-8 cm between each one.
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 8th stitch at the same time as casting off; the yarn overs are cast off as normal stitches.

JACKET – SHORT OVERVIEW OF THE PIECE:
The neck and yoke are worked back and forth with circular needle from mid front and top down. The yoke is divided for body and sleeves and the body continued back and forth with circular needle. The sleeves are worked in the round with short circular needle/double pointed needles, top down.
NECK:
Cast on 84-88-92-96-100-104 stitches (including 5 band stitches on each side towards mid front) with circular needle size 4 mm and 2 strands ash grey Kid-Silk and 1 strand old pink Alpaca (= 3 strands). Remove one of the strands of Kid-Silk. The rest of the garment is worked with 1 strand of each quality; casting on with an extra strand avoids the cast-on edge being tight.
Purl 1 row (= wrong side). The next row is worked as follows: Work 5 BAND STITCHES – read description above, * knit 2, purl 2 *, work from *-* until there are 7 stitches left on the row, knit 2 and finish with 5 band stitches.
Continue this rib for 9 cm.
Knit 1 row from the right side where you increase 14 stitches evenly spaced in all sizes – read INCREASE TIP = 98-102-106-110-114-118 stitches. AT THE SAME TIME work the first BUTTONHOLE on this row – read description above.
Knit 1 row from the wrong side (yarn overs knitted twisted and bands purled as before).
Insert 1 marker after the band at the beginning of the row; the yoke is measured from this marker!
YOKE:
Insert 4 marker threads in the piece as described below (without working the stitches). The threads will be used when increasing to raglan.
Count 22-23-24-25-26-27 stitches (= front piece), insert 1 marker thread before the next stitch, count 10 stitches (= sleeve), insert 1 marker thread before the next stitch, count 34-36-38-40-42-44 stitches (= back piece), insert 1 marker thread before the next stitch, count 10 stitches (= sleeve), insert 1 marker thread before the next stitch. There are 22-23-24-25-26-27 stitches left after the last marker thread on the front piece.
Change to circular needle size 5 mm and continue in GARTER STITCH and STRIPES ON YOKE AND BODY – read description above. In addition work A.1 in each transition between the front/back pieces and the sleeves (marker thread sits in the middle of A.1). NOTE: The 5 band stitches are worked as before. REMEMBER THE KNITTING TENSION!
AT THE SAME TIME on the first row from the right side begin to increase to RAGLAN – read description above (= 8 stitches increased). Increase like this every 2nd row (i.e. each row from the right side) a total of 8-9-10-13-15-18 times and then every 4th row (i.e. every other row from the right side) a total of 11-12-13-13-13-13 times.
After the last increase there are 250-270-290-318-338-366 stitches on the needle.
Continue with garter stitch, stripes and A.1 (without increasing) until the piece measures 20-22-23-25-27-29 cm from the marker on the neck.
Now divide the yoke for body and sleeves on the next row from the right side as follows: Work 41-44-47-51-55-60 stitches as before (= front piece), place the next 48-52-56-62-64-68 stitches on 1 thread for the sleeve, cast on 6-6-8-8-10-10 new stitches on the needle (in side under the sleeve), work 72-78-84-92-100-110 stitches as before (= back piece), place the next 48-52-56-62-64-68 stitches on 1 thread for the sleeve, cast on 6-6-8-8-10-10 new stitches on the needle (in side under the sleeve), work the remaining 41-44-47-51-55-60 stitches as before (= front piece). Body and sleeves are finished separately. THE PIECE IS NOW MEASURED FROM HERE!
BODY:
= 166-178-194-210-230-250 stitches. Continue back and forth with garter stitch and stripes until the piece measures 31-31-32-32-32-32 cm from the division. There is approx. 4 cm left to finished length; you can try the jacket on and work to desired length.
Knit 1 row from the right side where you increase 26-26-30-34-34-38 stitches evenly spaced = 192-204-224-244-264-288 stitches.
Change to circular needle size 4 mm and work the next row from the right side as follows: 5 band stitches as before, * purl 2, knit 2 *, work from *-* until there are 7 stitches left on the row, purl 2 and finish with 5 band stitches as before.
Continue this rib for 4 cm. Cast off with garter stitch over garter stitch, knit over knit and purl over purl – read CASTING-OFF TIP! The jacket measures approx. 58-60-62-64-66-68 cm from the shoulder down.
SLEEVE:
Place the 48-52-56-62-64-68 stitches from the thread on the one side of the piece on double pointed needles/short circular needle size 5 mm and knit up 1 stitch in each of the 6-6-8-8-10-10 stitches cast on under the sleeve = 54-58-64-70-74-78 stitches. Insert a marker thread in the middle of the 6-6-8-8-10-10 stitches under the sleeve. Allow the thread to follow your work onwards; it will be used when decreasing under the sleeve.
Start the round at the marker thread and work stocking stitch and STRIPES SLEEVE – read description above.
AT THE SAME TIME when the sleeve measures 3 cm from the division in all sizes, decrease 2 stitches under the sleeve – read DECREASE TIP. Decrease like this every 0-3-3-3-3-3 cm a total of 1-2-3-4-5-5 times in height = 52-54-58-62-64-68 stitches.
Continue working until the sleeve measures 38-36-36-34-32-31 cm from the division. There is approx. 6 cm left to finished length; you can try the jacket on and work to desired length.
Knit 1 round where you decrease 16-18-18-22-20-24 stitches evenly spaced = 36-36-40-40-44-44 stitches.
Change to double pointed needles size 4 mm and work rib (= knit 2, purl 2) for 6 cm. Cast off with knit over knit and purl over purl – remember CASTING-OFF TIP! The sleeve measures approx. 44-42-42-40-38-37 cm from the division. Work the other sleeve in the same way.
