INFORMATION FOR PATTERN: GARTER STITCH (back and forth): 1 ridge = knit 2 rows. PATTERN: See diagrams A.1 to A.4. Choose diagram for your size. Diagrams show all rows in pattern seen from the right side. NOTE! First row in diagrams is worked from wrong side! DECREASE TIP-1: To calculate how to decrease evenly, use the total number of stitches on row (e.g. 122 stitches) and divide stitches by number of decreases to be done (e.g. 20) = 6.1. In this example work approx. every 5th and 6th stitch together. DECREASE TIP-2: All decreases are done from the right side. Decrease as follows after 1 edge stitch in garter stitch: Slip 1 stitch knitwise, knit 1, pass slipped stitch over stitch worked. Decrease as follows before 1 edge stitch in garter stitch: Work until 3 stitches remain, knit 2 together, 1 edge stitch in garter stitch. INCREASE TIP: All increases are done from right side. Increase 1 stitch inside 1 edge stitch in garter stitch in each side by making a yarn over. On next row purl yarn overs twisted to avoid holes. Then work the new stitches in stockinette stitch. BUTTONHOLES: Decrease for buttonholes on right band. 1 BUTTONHOLE = knit third and fourth stitch from edge together and make 1 yarn over. On next row knit yarn over = hole. Measure from the marker thread after the edge in wave pattern + 2 ridges at the bottom on right front piece and make buttonholes when pieces measures: S: 1, 8, 15, 22 and 29 cm M: 1, 9, 16, 23 and 30 cm L: 1, 9, 17, 25 and 32 cm XL: 1, 10, 18, 26 and 34 cm XXL: 1, 10, 19, 27 and 35 cm XXXL: 1, 10, 19, 28 and 37 cm ---------------------------------------------------------- JACKET: Worked back and forth on circular needle, bottom up. Work first an edge in wave pattern with light beige. Then switch to dandelion and work 2 ridges before continuing in stockinette stitch. Work sleeves back and forth on circular needle. BACK PIECE: Cast on 121-121-137-137-153-169 stitches with light beige on circular needle size 4 mm / US 6. Work first row from wrong side as follows: A.1 (= 5 stitches), A.2 – choose diagram for your size (= 8 repetition of 14-14-16-16-18-20 stitches), A.3 (= 4 stitches). On the last 2 rows in A.1-A.3 cast on 1 new stitch at the end of row (marks vent) = 122-122-138-138-154-170 stitches. When A.1 to A.3 have been worked, switch to dandelion. Knit 1 row from right side while decreasing 20-12-18-8-12-16 stitches evenly - read DECREASE TIP-1 = 102-110-120-130-142-154 stitches. Knit 1 row from wrong side, knit 1 row from right side and knit 1 row from wrong side. Insert a marker thread here. NOW MEASURE PIECE FROM HERE! REMEMBER THE GAUGE! Now work in stockinette stitch with 1 edge stitch in GARTER STITCH - see explanation above, in each side, AT THE SAME TIME when piece measures 0-1-2-3-4-5 cm / "-⅜"-¾"-1⅛"-1 ½"-1⅞" decrease 1 stitch in each side – read DECREASE TIP-2. Decrease like this approx. every 4 cm / 1½" 4 times in total = 94-102-112-122-134-146 stitches. When piece measures 21-22-23-24-25-26 cm / 8¼"-8¾"-9"-9½"-9¾"-10¼", bind off stitches in each side for armholes as follows: bind off 3 stitches 1-2-2-3-4-5 times, 2 stitches 1-1-2-3-4-5 times and 1 stitch 1-1-3-2-2-2 times = 82-84-86-88-90-92 stitches. Continue in stockinette stitch with 1 edge stitch in garter stitch in each side. When piece measures 35-37-39-41-43-45 cm / 13¾"-14½"-15¼"-16⅛"-17"-17¾", bind off the middle 40-40-42-42-44-44 stitches for neck and finish each shoulder separately.

ASSEMBLY: Sew shoulders with grafting/kitchener stitches inside bind-off edge. Sew sleeves in body. Sew seam under sleeves and continue the seam down along the side down to stitch cast on for vent (= 8 cm / 3⅛" for vent). Sew inside 1 edge stitch in garter stitch in each side.

NECK EDGE: Begin from right side and knit up 108-108-114-114-120-120 stitches (including stitches from stitch holder on front pieces) with dandelion and circular needle size 4. Knit 1 row from wrong side, knit 1 row from right side and knit 1 row from wrong side. Then work as follows: ROW 1 (= right side): 1 edge stitch in garter stitch, knit until 1 stitch remains, 1 edge stitch in garter stitch. ROW 2 (= wrong side): 1 edge stitch in garter stitch, A.4 until 1 stitch remains, 1 edge stitch in garter stitch. Continue like this until 7th row in diagram has been worked. Then purl 1 row from wrong side with 1 edge stitch in garter stitch in each side. Bind off by knitting but for every 4th stitch make 1 yarn over. Bind off yarn over as stitch. NOTE! Avoid a tight bind off edge, the folding edge will tip outwards when assembled if too tight. Fold at eyelet row in A.4 so that hem is on the inside of garment. Sew bind-off edge in the top ridge. Make sure that to avoid a tight seam. |

Olá! Com respeito, comento um erro em português: o modelo se tricota de baixo para cima e não ao contrário como diz nas instruções ;)

I don't get what I have to do in the * (Star) Line - Line 8. "Den Rand an der Lochreihe (= 4. Reihe/Runde des Diagramms) zur Rückseite der Arbeit klappen." I really don't understand what I have to do here in the first sentence. Can anybody help?

Dear Giuseppina, this video (with text in german, but just feel free to edit the language if necessary) is showing how to work this row with the star. Happy knitting!

Finished this lovely cardi today, and was a joy to knit, looks very pretty,. Took a lot of undoing to get the pattern correct, but worth the work as looks lovely. A good yarn to knit with.

Ik lees " kant dan af voor de mouwkop op het begin van iedere naald aan elke kant als volgt: Kant 1 keer 4 steken af, 1 keer 3 steken, en dan steeds 2 steken". Moet ik bij de 1e naald 4 steken afkanten en bij de 2e 3 steken, of moet ik bij de 1e en 2e naald 4 steken afkanten en bij de 3e en 4e 3 steken?
19.04.2019 - 20:41DROPS Design answered:
Dag Kee,
Je kant bij de eerste naald 4 steken af, dan keer je het werk en kant je weer 4 steken af aan het begin van de teruggaande naald. Daarna kant je 3 steken af op zowel de heen- als teruggaande naald, enzovoort.

Hei Annika. Det er garnet i den gule fargen. Jeg ser at dette fargenavnet egentlig skulle vært maskros på svensk (Fargenummer 4) - vi skal få rettet dette i oppskriften. Men det referer altså til det gule garnet. God fornøyelse

Hej! Hur mäter man längden på arbetet. Om man ska tex sticka till 32 cm. Och då får jag olika mått nästan varje gång. Ska arbetet ligga plant eller ska den hänga?
06.06.2018 - 20:38DROPS Design answered:
Arbetet mäts då det ligger plant. Det är viktigt att man inte sträcker arb då det mäts.

Hei! Jeg trenger hjelp ang ermet. Det står øk hver 6. og hver 4. pinne. Skal jeg da øke først hver 6. pinne 7 ganger (størrelse L) også hver 4. pinne 7 ganger etter det? Eller skal det gjøres samtidig så det blir ca annenhver pinne?
03.05.2018 - 00:36DROPS Design answered:
Hei Mari. Det skal gjøres etter hverandre. Altså: du skal øke på hver 6 pinne 7 ganger, og når du er ferdig med det skal det økes på hver 4 pinne 7 ganger. God fornøyelse.

Hej!\r\nNu när jag har stickat fram till där man mäter stickfastheten. Så blir det 19m×25v på 10×10cm på st 3.5. Måste jag göra om allt med st 3? Mvh/Terese

Bij het rechtervoorpand moet je voor maat L 73 steken opzetten met beige. Na iedere naald moet je aan het einde van de naald aan de goede kant, 1 steek meerderen. Zodra je met boterbloem verder gaat, minder je 9 steken en heb je 64 steken op je naald.... waar zijn dan de steken gebleven die je gemeerdert hebt ? Volgens mij klopt er iets niet ?
26.04.2018 - 16:24DROPS Design answered:
Dag Nancy, Er stond een fout in het patroon. Er moet staan 'een na laastste naald' in plaats van 'de volgende tot laatste naald'. Het is nu gecorrigeerd.
