How to put a sleeve (knitted in the round) with front and back piece
Put sleeve sts (which has been knitted in the round on needle) on the same circular needle as front and back piece. When you knit on a circular needle and should knit raglan or round yoke, start to knit front and back until armholes. On next round bind off 4 sts for armhole each side (or number of sts told in pattern). Now work the sleeves, bind off 4 sts for armhole (or number of sts told in pattern) for sleeve cap. Then put sleeve sts on the same circular needle where sts where bound off for armhole each side.
In the video we show a front and back piece where we have bound off for arm hole at the side, and then how to work the sleeve sts on to the same circular needle. The sleeve has been worked in the round on a circular needle or double pointed needles.

Io mi trovo a dover inserire le maglie delle maniche lavorate sui ferri circolari sul ferro del davanti e dietro dovendo pero lavorare il ferro del rovescio del lavoro .. come. Faccio ?

Buonasera Alessandra, solitamente le maniche si uniscono su un ferro a diritto perchè poi il lavoro prosegue in tondo. Buon lavoro!
17.01.2026 - 17:44I am knitting a large "Green Echo Jacket", and have attached the sleeves to the fronts and back piece. Now I am starting the pattern and have done the first row. Please reassure me that I haven't misunderstood the instructions - line 2 of A.2a indicates increasing 3 stitches at each end, thus adding 6 stitches to the section. I presume that I repeat this sequence all the way around the piece, thus adding 132 stitches to the garment. Is this correct?
11.03.2024 - 00:32DROPS Design :
Dear Marie, you repeat A.2a 18 times in the row. Since you increase 6 stitches in each repeat: 6x18 = 108 stitches increased. Happy knitting!
11.03.2024 - 00:43I understand how to attach the sleeves knitted in the round to a flat piece knitted flat. However - my cardigan has over 400 stitches now, with the sleeves having added 80 stitches each, to the needle, and are extremely difficult to knit onto the long needle, due to the short 10 stitch castoff. How should I do the pattern if I am struggling to just knit all the stitches on the needle?
09.03.2024 - 23:02DROPS Design :
Dear Marie, it's normal that it may sometimes be difficult to work all of the stitches in the joining sections between the sleeves and body; it depends on the model. This difficulty will only appear in the first few rows of the joined yoke; later on, as you work the yoke, it will get easier. Happy knitting!
10.03.2024 - 19:47Hej På videoen vises kun at et ærme strikket ind - hvordan gør man når begge ærmer skal strikkes på ( det er en cardigan jeg strikker).... mvh
18.02.2024 - 12:16DROPS Design :
Hei Ingrid. På samme måte. Når du har strikket 1.erm på, strikker du videre (over bakstykket) til neste ermhull og så strikker du 2. erme på samme måte som man strikket 1. ermet på. Men husk å lese oppskriften du strikker etter om det er noe man må ta hensyn til. mvh DROPS Design
26.02.2024 - 10:12Hej! Når man strikker en cardigan frem og tilbage, skal de tilsatte ærmer vel vendes med vragen ud når man strikker vrangpinden?
03.01.2024 - 12:40DROPS Design :
Hei Lise. Fra vrangen strikkes alle masker vrang (om plagget strikkes i glattstrikk). Ermene skal ikke vrenges. mvh DROPS Design
08.01.2024 - 11:56Je ne comprends pas diminutions manches 26 fois1 maille alternativement tous les tours et tous les 2 tours? Est ce d abord 26 rangs puis ensuite 13 rangs ou autre? Merci pour votre réponse
21.12.2023 - 18:43DROPS Design :
Bonjour Christine, vous devez procéder ainsi: *Tricotez 1 tour avec augmentation (tous les tours), 1 tour sans augmentation, 1 tour avec augmentation (tous les 2 tours)* et répétez de *à* encore 12 fois =. vous aurez augmentez 26 fois au total. Bon tricot!
22.12.2023 - 09:06I love u girl. You are an angel. You are the best in universe. Tnx for sharing your experience.
27.09.2023 - 01:24Hva gjør dere med den resterende tråden som henger løst frå ermet? Hvordan sikrer jeg den godt nok til at genseren vil tåle framtidig vask?
13.05.2023 - 11:05DROPS Design :
Hei Melissa. Fest trådene godt, så skal de tåle vask (vask plagget ettter vaskeanvisningen). Ta evnt en titt på videoene: Hvordan feste tråder i vrbord, Hvordan feste tråder i glattstrikk og Hvordan feste tråder i rillestrikk. mvh DROPS Design
15.05.2023 - 10:54The video tutorials do not have any sound. Not sure how to fix this.

Dear Somca, our videos do not have any sound, just remember to follow the written pattern/explanation text at the same time as you are watching the video. Happy knitting!
01.02.2022 - 09:30Voor 8_10 jaar staat in patroon met 4 de steek beginnen. Is dat de steek met omslag er tussen? Kom er niet uit. Als rondbreid moet je dan niet een keer links breien waar je bij lijf rechts deed.

Dag Ria,
In deze video wordt uitgelegd hoe je een in de rondte gebreide mouw samenvoegt met de panden, om daarna de pas verder te breien. Bij elk patroon kan het weer een beetje anders zijn, dus misschien is het beter om je vraag onder het patroon te zetten, dan kunnen we je waarschijnlijk beter helpen.
