Please can you tell me how many stitches I should have at the plain white row below the purple zigzags as it doesn't work out and the zigzags are uneven?
28.01.2023 - 06:42DROPS Design answered:
Dear Vivienne, the amount of stitches will depend on the size you are working and the number of repeats of A.1 that you have in the round. Just before starting the zigzags, the last row of off-white, you have 16 stitches per repeat (as counted in the chart). Take into account that there are increases once you start working the zigzags. Happy knitting!

Warum muss man kurz vor den Ärmelbündchen und Rumpfbündchen zunehmen anstatt abnehmen? Das ist doch falsch ?
26.06.2022 - 12:52DROPS Design answered:
Liebe Frau Kessassouia, hier will man nicht, daß das Bündchen eng wird, deshalb wird man zuerst zunehmen, weil man mehr Maschen mit den dünneren Nadeln für das Bündchen braucht als mit den grösseren Nadeln für glattrechts. Viel Spaß beim stricken!

I am confused by this instruction. (Yoke) "Continue this pattern until there is 1 round left in A.1. There are 252 stitches on the needle. Work the last round in A.1, AT THE SAME TIME adjust the number of stitches to 246" Please can you tell me where and how I decrease the number of stitches without messing up the pattern?? Thank you.
04.10.2021 - 23:54DROPS Design answered:
Dear Mary, this lesson will explain you how to decrease 6 sts evenly to go from 252 on 246 sts on the last round in A.1. Happy knitting!

Hej, jag vill sticka denna till min dotter. Hon har stl 164 i vanliga kläder. Kan jag använda stl S? Eller blir den alldeles för stor? Svårt att hitta mönster för större barn.

Hej Linn. Om du ser längst ner på detta mönster så har du en måttskiss på det färdiga plagget. Mät en tröja hon redan har och jämför med måtten i den minsta storleken så ser du om det passar henne. Mvh DROPS Design

Body. Does the increasing take place over the two sets of 6 stitches that have been cast on. Could you please describe the process from the part on the instruction increase 1 stitch on each side of both marker threads. Do I knit 62 (large size) stitches and then increase. Gina
27.01.2021 - 20:05DROPS Design answered:
Dear Gina, at the beginning of body you insert a marker in the middle of the 6 new stitches cast on mid under sleeve, then you will increase as under INCREASE TIP-2, ie work from the side (marker): K1, YO (increase), knit until 1 st remain before next marker, YO, K2, YO, knit until 1 st remain before next marker,YO, K1 = 192 sts + 4 sts increased = 196 sts after 1st increase round. Happy knititng!

I understand the procedure for an elevated neck. The video you advised me about shows the neck in a circle for the elevated neck is this correct as mine isn't. How do I find the mid back in order to knit the elevated neck. Thanks for all your help.
08.12.2020 - 21:15DROPS Design answered:
Dear Gina, in the video you start just as in this jumper you cast on stitches and work rib in the round for 4 cm, knit 1 round increasing evenly, knit 1 round with larger needle and now start the short rows from the beg of the round = mid back, working alternately from RS and from WS and more sts on every row, then work back to the beg of the round (mid back), and continue working in the round. Happy knitting!

Is the neck (back elevation) knitted in a round or just back and forth. There are no instructions how to sew the neck if not knitted in a round. Happy knitting
08.12.2020 - 10:43DROPS Design answered:
Dear Gina, elevation is worked with short rows = in rows (not in the round) as shown in this video. Hope this will help. Happy knitting!

Knitted sweater with round yoke in DROPS Nepal. The piece is worked top down with Nordic pattern. Sizes S - XXXL.
DROPS 205-4 |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
------------------------------------------------------- EXPLANATIONS FOR THE PATTERN: ------------------------------------------------------ PATTERN: See diagrams A.1 and A.2. Choose diagram for your size in A.1. The diagrams show all the rows in the pattern seen from the right side. The whole pattern is worked in stockinette stitch. KNITTING TIP: To avoid the knitting gauge becoming tighter when working pattern it is important that the strands at the back are not tight. Use a size larger needle when working pattern if this is a problem. Make sure the knitting gauge is correct in height as well, if this is too tight the yoke will be too short and the armholes too small! INCREASE TIP-1 (evenly spaced): To work out how to increase evenly, count the total number of stitches on the needle (e.g. 82 stitches) and divide by the number of increases to be made (e.g. 4) = 20.5. In this example, increase by making 1 yarn over after alternately each 20th and 21st stitch. On the next round knit the yarn overs twisted to avoid holes. INCREASE TIP-2 (for sides of body): Work until there are 2 stitches left before the marker thread, make 1 yarn over, knit 4 (marker thread sits between these 4 stitches) make 1 yarn over (= 2 stitches increased at each marker thread; 4 stitches increased on round). On the next round knit the yarn overs twisted to avoid holes. Then work the new stitches in stockinette stitch. DECREASE TIP (for sleeves): Decrease 1 stitch on each 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. ------------------------------------------------------- START THE PIECE HERE: ------------------------------------------------------- SWEATER: The piece is worked in the round with circular needle from mid back, top down. You can work an elevation in the back of the neck for a better fit. This elevation can be left out; the neck will then be the same front and back – see description further down the text. After the yoke the body is continued in the round. The sleeves are worked in the round with short circular needle/double pointed needles, top down. ------------------------------------------------------ NECK: Cast on 68-72-84-88-92-100 stitches with circular needle size 4 mm = US 6 and goldenrod. Knit 1 round then work rib in the round, knit 2, purl 2, for 4 cm = 1 1/2”. Knit 1 round where you increase 2-3-1-2-3-0 stitches evenly spaced – read INCREASE TIP-1 = 70-75-85-90-95-100 stitches. Change to circular needle size 5 mm = US 8 and knit 1 round. Now you can work an elevation in the back of the neck or go straight to yoke if you do not want an elevation. ELEVATION (back of neck): So the sweater is slightly higher at the back of the neck when working a round yoke, you can work an elevation as described here. Skip this section if you do not want an elevation. Start from the right side, mid back, using goldenrod: Knit 11-11-12-13-13-14 stitches, turn, tighten the strand and purl 22-22-24-26-26-28 stitches. Turn, tighten the strand and knit 33-33-36-39-39-42 stitches, turn, tighten the strand and purl 44-44-48-52-52-56 stitches. Turn, tighten the strand and knit 55-55-60-65-65-70 stitches, turn, tighten the strand and purl 66-66-72-78-78-84 stitches, turn, tighten strand and knit to mid back. Continue with YOKE as explained below. YOKE: Read KNITTING TIP! Work A.1 over all stitches (= 14-15-17-18-19-20 repeats of 5 stitches). Continue this pattern until there is 1 round left in A.1. There are 252-270-306-324-342-360 stitches on the needle. Work the last round in A.1, AT THE SAME TIME adjust the number of stitches to 246-274-304-322-344-362 stitches. REMEMBER THE KNITTING GAUGE! Then work the next round as follows working A.2 over A.1: Work 38-41-45-49-53-56 stitches as shown on the first row in A.2 (= half back piece), place the next 48-56-62-64-66-68 stitches on 1 thread for sleeve, cast on 6-6-6-8-8-10 new stitches on the needle (= in side under sleeve), work 74-80-90-96-106-114 stitches as shown on the first row in A.2 (= front piece), place the next 48-56-62-64-66-68 stitches on 1 thread for sleeve, cast on 6-6-6-8-8-10 new stitches on the needle (= in side under sleeve) and work 38-41-45-49-53-56 stitches as shown on the first row in A.2 (= half back piece). Body and sleeves are finished separately. THE PIECE IS NOW MEASURED FROM HERE! BODY: = 162-174-192-210-228-246 stitches. Insert 1 marker thread in each side, in the middle of the 6-6-6-8-8-10 new stitches. Continue with A.2 over all stitches. When A.2 has been worked 1 time in height continue with stockinette stitch and goldenrod. When the piece measures 15 cm = 6”, increase 1 stitch on each side of both marker threads. Increase every 4-4-4-5-5-5 cm = 1 1/2”-1 1/2”-1 1/2”-2”-2”-2” a total of 5 times = 182-194-212-230-248-266 stitches – read INCREASE TIP-2. When the piece measures 34-36-36-38-38-40 cm = 13 3/8”-14 1/4”-14 1/4”-15”-15”-15 3/4” from the division, work 1 round where you increase 38-42-44-50-52-58 stitches evenly spaced – read INCREASE TIP-1 = 220-236-256-280-300-324 stitches. Change to circular needle size 4 mm = US 6 and work rib (knit 2, purl 2) for 4 cm = 1 1/2”. Bind off with knit over knit and purl over purl. The sweater measures approx. 62-64-66-68-70-72 cm = 24 3/8"-25 1/4"-26"-26 3/4"-27 1/2"-28 3/8” from the shoulder. SLEEVE: Place the 48-56-62-64-66-68 stitches from the thread on the one side of the piece on short circular needle/double pointed needles size 5 mm = US 8 and knit up 1 stitch in each of the 6-6-6-8-8-10 stitches cast on under the sleeve = 54-62-68-72-74-78 stitches. Insert 1 marker thread in the middle of the 6-6-6-8-8-10 stitches under the sleeve. Work A.2 over all stitches, AT THE SAME TIME on the first round adjust the number of stitches to 54-60-66-72-78-78 stitches. When the piece measures 4 cm = 1 1/2”, decrease 1 stitch on each side of the marker thread under the sleeve; decrease every 5-3-2½-2-2-2 cm = 2”-1 1/8”-1”-3/4”-3/4”-3/4” a total of 7-10-12-14-15-15 times = 40-40-42-44-48-48 stitches – read DECREASE TIP. When the sleeve measures 35-36-34-35-33-34 cm = 13 3/4”-14 1/4”-13 3/8”-13 3/4”-13”-13 3/8” from the division (shorter measurements in larger sizes due to longer yoke), knit 1 round with goldenrod where you increase 8-8-6-8-8-8 stitches evenly spaced = 48-48-48-52-56-56 stitches. Change to double pointed needles size 4 mm = US 6 and work rib (= knit 2, purl 2) for 5 cm = 2”. Bind off with knit over knit and purl over purl; make sure the bind-off edge is not tight. Work the other sleeve in the same way. |

Storlek xl, när man har gjort nya maskor till ärmarna och börjar sticka A2, så stämmer inte maskantalet med mönstret. Istället för att göra nya 8 maskor så får man bara göra 5 nya för att det ska passa in i mönstret.
