How to increase the sleeves to saddle shoulder

Keywords: jacket, saddle shoulder, sweater, vest,

In this DROPS video we show how to increase the sleeves to saddle shoulders. We have already worked a piece with increases and inserted 4 markers. AFTER MARKER (marker 1 and 3): Use left needle to pick up strand between 2 stitches from the row below, pick up strand from the FRONT and knit stitch in back loop. The new stitch will be twisted, leaning towards the left. BEFORE MARKER (marker 2 and 4): Use left needle to pick up strand between 2 stitches from the row below, pick up strand from BEHIND and knit stitch in front loop. The new stitch will be twisted, leaning towards the right. There are only increases on back piece and front piece, the number of shoulder stitches remains the same. We use the yarn DROPS Snow in the video. You must read a pattern using this technique to be able to follow this video properly. You’ll find a pattern by clicking on one off the pictures below.

The video above can be used in the following patterns

Dear Mrs Lau, you will then incrase for the saddle shoulders from the right side: before the marker 1 and after marker 2 (first shoulder) + before marker 3 and after marker 4 (2nd shoulder). And increase from WS (for jacket) before marker 4 and after marker 3 + before marker 2 and after marker 1 - see INCREASE TIP-2 and INCREASE TIP-3 (if you are working the jacket - then you should incrase ). Happy knitting!

Not sure if the video for sleeve increase is correct. Instructions said to pick up stitch after the marker but video showed pick up is before the marker stitch

Dear Kathie, you will pick up the strand/increase after or before the marker - it depends on where your marker is located - the most important for saddle shoulder is to increase on each side of the stitches for the saddle shoulder: before these stitches + after these stitches. Maybe tell us the pattern you are working on or ask your question in this pattern, it might be easier for us to check together with you and give you an accurate answer matching the pattern you are working on. Happy knitting!

Hallo,\r\nIch möchte die sattelschulter stricken. Aus dem Video dazu erkenne ich nicht, wie der Verlauf am Ärmel zu stricken ist. Kann das in einer Fortsetzung der Anleitung erklärt werden?\r\nDanke

Hola! En el aumento para el cuerpo después de tener 186 p y 11 cm de largo desde la división , no entiendo cómo se aumenta ya que pone “ “aumentar a cada lado del marcapuntos según TIP 3 PARA AUMENTOS , no sé si hay un error y debería decir TIP4 PARA LOS AUMENTOS . Desearía me lo aclare para poder continuar con la labor . Gracias por vuestra labor. Saludos
