How to work the beginning to a jumper

Keywords: circular needle, jumper, raglan, top down,

In this DROPS video we show how we work the beginning of the Breaking Sunlight jumper in DROPS 213-36, but the same increase with 8 markers is also used in other jumpers. We have already cast on 80 stitches (size S) and knitted 1 round. We start the video by working a rib (knit 1, purl 1) 2 rounds.

Then change to larger needles, work textured pattern (knit 1, 1 in garter stitch)
and put 8 markers in work + 1 mark (green) indicating the beginning of the round. We show 4 more rounds, but the last 2 rounds we do not show the whole rounds.
You must read the pattern as well as watch the video. You can find the pattern by clicking on the picture below.

This jumper is worked in DROPS Paris, but in video we use a thicker yarn; DROPS Snow.

Mir scheint es, als wäre das Strukturmuster im Video ebenfalls abwechselnd 1 M re und 1 M li wie das Rippenmuster zu Beginn. Wo ist da der Unterschied?

Liebe Elisa, das Strukurmuster wird so gestrickt: (1 Masche glatt rechts (= jede Runde rechts stricken) / 1 Masche kraus rechtes (= abwechslungsweise rechst und links stricken - siehe Video für Krausrechts in Runden). Viel Spaß beim stricken!
