------------------------------------------------------- EXPLANATIONS FOR THE PATTERN: ------------------------------------------------------- PATTERN: See diagrams A.1 to A.4. RAGLAN: Increase 1 stitch on each side of every repeat of A.2 (= 8 stitches increased on the row). Increase by making 1 yarn over. On the next round knit the yarn overs twisted so there are NO holes. Then work the new stitches in stockinette 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. INCREASE TIP (evenly spaced): To work out how to increase evenly, count the total number of stitches on the needle (e.g. 19 stitches) and divide by the number of increases to be made (e.g. 6) = 3.1. In this example, increase by making 1 yarn over after approx. each 3rd stitch. On the next round work the yarn overs twisted to avoid holes. ------------------------------------------------------- START THE PIECE HERE: ------------------------------------------------------- SWEATER – SHORT OVERVIEW OF THE PIECE: The piece is worked in the round with circular needle, top down from mid back. The sleeves are worked in the round with short circular needle/double pointed needles, top down. NECK: Cast on 106-106-114-114-122-122 stitches with circular needle size 4 mm = US 6 and Brushed Alpaca Silk. Knit 1 round, then work rib as follows from mid-back: SIZES S-M-XXL-XXXL: Purl 1, knit 2, * purl 2, knit 2 *, repeat from *-* over the next 0-0-4-4 stitches, work A.1 (= 22 stitches), knit 3, work A.1 (= 22 stitches), knit 2, * purl 2, knit 2 *, repeat from *-* over the next 4-4-12-12 stitches, work A.1 (= 22 stitches), knit 3, work A.1 (= 22 stitches), * knit 2, purl 2 *, repeat from *-* over the next 0-0-4-4 stitches, knit 2, purl 1. SIZES L-XL: Knit 1, purl 2, knit 2, work A.1 (= 22 stitches), knit 3, work A.1 (= 22 stitches), knit 2, * purl 2, knit 2 *, repeat from *-* over the next 8 stitches, work A.1 (= 22 stitches), knit 3, work A.1 (= 22 stitches), knit 2, purl 2, knit 1. ALL SIZES: Repeat the first 2 rounds in A.1 and work remaining stitches as before until the piece measures 3 cm = 1⅛", insert 1 marker here (= mid front, now measure from here), continue with the first 2 rounds in A.1 and work remaining stitches as before until the piece measures 7 cm = 2¾". Then work the last round in A.1 (with increases). There are 122-122-130-130-138-138 stitches on the needle. YOKE: Change to circular needle size 5 mm = US 8. The next round is worked as follows: Knit 3-3-5-5-7-7, work A.2 (= 26 stitches) over A.1 (= half back piece), * 1 yarn over, knit 1 *, work from *-* a total of 3 times, 1 yarn over (= 7 sleeve stitches), work A.2 over A.1, knit 6-6-10-10-14-14, work A.2 over A.1 (= front piece), * 1 yarn over, knit 1 *, work from *-* a total of 3 times, 1 yarn over, (= 7 sleeve stitches), work A.2 over A.1, knit 3-3-5-5-7-7 (= half back piece) = 130-130-138-138-146-146 stitches. Work 1 more round with this pattern; the 4 yarn overs in each side and over the sleeves are knitted twisted to avoid holes. REMEMBER THE KNITTING GAUGE! Continue with A.2 and stockinette stitch, AT THE SAME TIME on the first round increase 1 stitch on each side of every A.2 to RAGLAN – read description above. Increase like this every 2nd round a total of 17-21-22-25-27-31 times = 266-298-314-338-362-394 stitches. Continue the increases on the sleeves 4-2-4-4-2-0 more times (= a total of 21-23-26-29-29-31 stitches increased on each sleeve), the remaining stitches are continued as before. When all the increases are finished there are 282-306-330-354-370-394 stitches on the needle. Continue working until the piece measures 23-25-28-30-31-32 cm = 9"-9¾"-11"-11¾"-12¼"-12½" from the marker mid-front. If the piece is shorter than this, continue working without further increases to correct length. The next round is worked as follows: Work the first 46-50-53-56-60-64 stitches (= half back piece), place the next 49-53-59-65-65-69 stitches on a thread for the sleeve, cast on 6-6-6-8-10-12 new stitches on the needles (= in side under sleeve), work the next 92-100-106-112-120-128 stitches (= front piece), place the next 49-53-59-65-65-69 stitches on a thread for the sleeve, cast on 6-6-6-8-10-12 new stitches on the needles (= in side under sleeve) and work the remaining 46-50-53-56-60-64 stitches (= half back piece). THE PIECE IS MEASURED FROM HERE! BODY: 196-212-224-240-260-280 stitches. Continue in the round with A.2 and stockinette stitch as before. The new stitches cast on in each side are worked in stockinette stitch. Continue working until the piece measures 26-26-25-25-26-27 cm = 10¼"-10¼"-9¾"-9¾"-10¼"-10⅝" from the division – adjust so the next round in A.2 has cabling. Change to circular needle size 4 mm = US 6 and work the next round as follows: Knit 1, * purl 2, knit 2 *, repeat from *-* over the next 19-23-26-29-33-37 stitches, AT THE SAME TIME as you increase 1-1-2-3-3-3 stitches evenly spaced – read INCREASE TIP (= 20-24-28-32-36-40 stitches in rib), work A.3 over A.2, * knit 2, purl 2 *, repeat from *-* over the next 6-6-6-8-10-12 stitches, AT THE SAME TIME as you increase 0-0-0-2-0-2 stitches evenly spaced over these stitches (= 6-6-6-10-10-14 stitches in rib), work A.3 over A.2, * knit 2, purl 2 *, repeat from *-* over the next 40-48-54-60-68-76 stitches, AT THE SAME TIME as you increase 2-2-0-2-2-2 stitches evenly spaced (= 42-50-54-62-70-78 stitches in rib), work A.3 over A.2, * knit 2, purl 2 *, repeat from *-* over the next 6-6-6-8-10-12 stitches, AT THE SAME TIME as you increase 0-0-0-2-0-2 stitches evenly spaced over these stitches (= 6-6-6-10-10-14 stitches in rib), work A.3 over A.2, * knit 2, purl 2 *, repeat from *-* over the next 19-23-26-29-33-37 stitches, AT THE SAME TIME as you increase 1-1-2-3-3-3 stitches evenly spaced (= 20-24-28-32-36-40 stitches in rib), knit 1. On the next round, continue the rib and work A.4 over A.3 = 184-200-212-236-252-276 stitches. When the rib measures 4 cm = 1½", bind off with knit over knit and purl over purl. The sweater measures approx. 56-58-60-62-64-66 cm = 22"-22¾"-23⅝"-24⅜"-25¼"-26" from the shoulder down. SLEEVE: Place the 49-53-59-65-65-67 stitches from the thread on the one side of the piece on double pointed needles/short circular needle size 5 mm = US 8 and knit up 1 stitch in each of the 6-6-6-8-10-12 stitches cast on under the sleeve = 55-59-65-73-75-81 stitches. Insert a marker thread in the middle of the 6-6-6-8-10-12 stitches under the sleeve. Work stockinette stitch in the round. When the sleeve measures 4 cm = 1½" from the division, decrease 1 stitch on each side of the marker thread under the sleeve – read DECREASE TIP. Decrease like this every 5-4-2½-2-2-1½ cm = 2"-1½"-⅞"-¾"-¾"-½" a total of 6-7-10-13-13-14 times = 43-45-45-47-49-53 stitches. Continue working until the sleeve measures 35-34-32-30-30-30 cm = 13¾"-13⅜"-12½"-11¾"-11¾"-11¾" – NOTE! Shorter measurements in larger sizes due to wider neck and longer yoke). Knit 1 round where you increase 1-3-3-1-3-3 stitches evenly spaced = 44-48-48-48-52-56 stitches. Change to double pointed needles size 4 mm = US 6 and work rib (knit 2, purl 2) for 4 cm = 1½". Bind off with knit over knit and purl over purl. The sleeve measures approx. 39-38-36-34-34-34 cm = 15¼"-15"-14¼"-13⅜"-13⅜"-13⅜". Work the other sleeve in the same way. |

Hi! I finished working on the yoke and the increases on the sleeves for the size L. After making the increases on the sleeves 4 times (for size L), the number of stitches on the needle =346 stitches NOT 330 stitches. Is there some error with the math on the pattern? Basically, 314 sts after the yoke increases for size L + 16 sts + 16 stitches on each of the sleeves (=346 sts). What am I missing? Please help! Thanks!
26.03.2024 - 04:56DROPS Design answered:
Dear Vish, after you get 314 stitches you increase 4 more times only in the sleeves. You have 2 increases per sleeve. So you increase 2 increases x 2 sleeves x 4 times =16 increases. 314 stitches +16 increases = 330 stitches. Happy knitting!

Hallo Drops Design Team ,wenn ich ganz am Anfang 122 M mit A1 stricke ,komme ich in der letzten Reihe auf 20 Umschläge,also auf 142 Maschen ,nicht 138. Das ist mir ein Rätsel. Viele Grüße
24.03.2024 - 18:04DROPS Design answered:
Liebe Frau Hnida, bei der letzten Reihe in A.1 wird man 4 Maschen (siehe Umschläge) zunehmen, so wird man insgesamt 4 Maschen in jedem A.1 (4Mal) = 16 Maschen zunehmen, so hat man 122 + 16 = 138 Maschen. Viel Spaß beim Stricken!

Thank you for your response! This really helps. I have a follow up question -- When you/the pattern says "increasing on the 2nd round a total of 17-21-22-25-27-31 times," second round of A.2 pattern or every second (alternate) round in the pattern? Meaning in rounds 1, 3, 5, 7 of the A.2 pattern? I am a new knitter and this is my first raglan pattern, so I am very confused about how to do the increases.

Dear Vish, yes that's right, you will work alternately 1 round with increases, 1 round without increases until you have worked 17 - 31 times (see size). Happy knitting!

Hi, I am making this pattern in size L. I am now working the yoke. I knit the 1st round of yoke and have 138 st (= all good so far). I am extremely confused about how to work round 2 onwards. Do I repeat Round 2 of A.2 with the increases on each side of the sleeves and over the sleeves? What does it mean to "Continue with A.2 and stocking stitch, AT THE SAME TIME on the first round increase 1 stitch on each side of every A.2 to RAGLAN – read description above.?" Please help!
10.03.2024 - 06:32DROPS Design answered:
Dear Wish, when you start the yoke, on the stitches that were knitted with the pattern A.1 will be continued with the pattern A.2. AND increases on both sides of all repeats of pattern A.2.From then on you continue with the rows (rounds) of pattern A.2 at the raglan lines, increasing as the instructions say ("2nd round a total of 17-21-22-25-27-31 times = 266-298-314-338-362-394 stitches. Continue the increases on the sleeves 4-2-4-4-2-0 more times (= a total of 21-23-26-29-29-31 stitches increased on each sleeve),"), and stocking stitches on the rest. I hopw this helps. Happy Knitting!

Hi! I'm starting to knit the pattern but I don't understand how it should look from behind. Is it the some as the front pattern? It would be really helpful if you could post a backside picture for reference.

Dear Miranda, these are the only photos of the pattern that we have available. The back piece and the front piece should look practically the same, since both have the same cable pattern. Happy knitting!

Bonjour je veux tricoter la taille M. Je monte 106 mailles. pour le col, l'alternance des mailles détaillées conduit à avoir 118 mailles. Je ne comprends pas comment faire. Faut il monter 118 mailles? 118 mailles semble cohérent avec la répartition du paragraphe suivant qui après parle d'augmentations (lesquelles?) pour arriver à 122 mailles. Comment les répartitions sont elles réparties? merci
