---------------------------------------------------------- EXPLANATION FOR THE PATTERN: ---------------------------------------------------------- GARTER STITCH (back and forth): Knit all rows. 1 ridge vertically = knit 2 rows. PATTERN: See diagrams A.1 to A.6. INCREASE TIP (applies to mid under sleeves): Work until 2 stitches remain before marker thread, make 1 yarn over, knit 4 (marker thread is in the middle of these 4 stitches), make 1 yarn over. On next round knit yarns over 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 to make hole. Decrease for buttonholes when piece measures (measured from cast-on edge): S: 6, 16, 26, 35 and 44 cm = 2⅜", 6¼", 10¼", 13¾" and 17¼" M: 6, 16, 26, 36 and 46 cm = 2⅜", 6¼", 10¼", 14¼" and 18" L: 6, 15, 24, 32, 40 and 48 cm = 2⅜", 6", 9½", 12½", 15¾" and 19" XL: 6, 15, 24, 33, 42 and 50 cm = 2⅜", 6", 9½", 13", 16½" and 19¾" XXL: 6, 16, 25, 34, 43 and 52 cm = 2⅜", 6¼", 9¾", 13⅜", 17" and 20½" XXXL: 6, 16, 26, 36, 45 and 54 cm = 2⅜", 6¼", 10¼", 14¼", 17¾" and 21¼" ---------------------------------------------------------- START THE PIECE HERE: ---------------------------------------------------------- JACKET - SHORT OVERVIEW OF THE PIECE: Work from bottom up. Work body back and forth on circular needle. Work sleeves in the round on double pointed needles. Put body and sleeves together for yoke and decrease for neck edge. Work the collar together with stitches from neck edge. BODY: Cast on 170-178-196-214-240-260 stitches on circular needle size 4 MM = US 6 with DROPS Brushed Alpaca Silk. Work in stockinette stitch with 1 edge stitch in GARTER STITCH - read explanation above, in each side. When piece measures 4 cm = 1½", work a folding edge as follows: Work 1 edge stitch in garter stitch, * knit 2 together, 1 yarn over *, work from *-* until 1 stitch remains, and finish with 1 edge stitch in garter stitch. Work in stockinette stitch and cast on 4 stitches at the end of the next 2 rows = 178-186-204-222-248-268 stitches. Then work in stockinette stitch with 5 band stitches in garter stitch in each side of piece. When piece measures 4 cm = 1½" from cast-on edge, switch to circular needle size 5.5 MM = US 9. Work in stockinette stitch with 5 band stitches in garter stitch in each side. On first row decrease 28-28-30-32-38-42 stitches evenly (do not decrease over band stitches) = 150-158-174-190-210-226 stitches. Decrease for BUTTONHOLES - read explanation above. REMEMBER THE KNITTING GAUGE! When piece measures 27-27-28-28-28-28 cm = 10⅝"-10⅝"-11"-11"-11"-11" from folding edge, bind off stitches for armholes in each side as follows: Work 5 band stitches in garter stitch, 31-33-37-41-46-50 stitches in stockinette stitch, bind off the next 8 stitches, 62-66-74-82-92-100 stitches in stockinette stitch, bind off the next 8 stitches, 31-33-37-41-46-50 stitches in stockinette stitch and 5 band stitches in garter stitch. Put piece aside and work the sleeves as follows: SLEEVES: Cast on 48-50-52-52-56-58 stitches on double pointed needles size 4 MM = US 6 with DROPS Brushed Alpaca Silk.

On first round decrease 8-8-8-8-10-10 stitches evenly = 40-42-44-44-46-48 stitches. Insert 1 marker thread at the beginning of round, increase on each side of this marker thread later. When sleeve measures 12-12-10-10-8-10 cm = 4¾"-4¾"-4"-4"-3⅛"-4" from folding edge, increase 1 stitch on each side of marker thread - read INCREASE TIP. Increase like this every 4-3½-3-2-2-1½ cm = 1½"-1¼"-1⅛"-¾"-¾"-½" 7-8-10-13-14-14 times in total = 54-58-64-70-74-76 stitches. When sleeve measures 41-39-39-37-36-34 cm = 16⅛"-15¼"-15¼"-14½"-14¼"-13⅜" from folding edge, bind off the first 4 stitches and the last 4 stitches = 46-50-56-62-66-68 stitches. Cut the yarn. Knit another sleeve the same way. YOKE: Slip sleeves on to same circular needle size 5.5 MM = US 9 as body, where armholes were bind off = 226-242-270-298-326-346 stitches.

When A.2 has been worked 1 time vertically, there are 136-148-166-172-184-196 stitches on needle. Work in stockinette stitch with 5 band stitches in garter stitch in each side. When piece measures 16-18-19-20-22-24 cm = 6¼"-7"-7½"-8"-8¾"-9½", work as follows: Work 5 band stitches in garter stitch, A.3 21-23-26-27-29-31 times in total in width, finish with 5 band stitches in garter stitch. When A.3 has been worked 1 time vertically, there are 94-102-114-118-126-134 stitches on needle. When piece measures 18-20-21-23-25-27 cm = 7"-8"-8¼"-9"-9¾"-10⅝", work next row from wrong side as follows: Work 5 band stitches in garter stitch, work stockinette stitch until 5 stitches remain and decrease at the same time 0-6-14-16-20-24 stitches evenly, work 5 band stitches in garter stitch = 94-96-100-102-106-110 stitches. Work like this until piece measures approx. 19-21-22- 24-26- 28 cm = 7½"-8¼"-8¾"-9½"-10¼"-11" and finish with 1 row from wrong side. Put piece aside and work the collar as follows: COLLAR: Cast on 259-271-307-331-367-391 stitches on circular needle size 5.5 MM = US 9 with DROPS Brushed Alpaca Silk. Work pattern as follows: A.4a, A.4b 20-21-24-26-29-31 times in total in width and A.4c. Then work A.5a, A.5b 20-21-24-26-29-31 times in total and A.5c.

When collar measures 27-27-30-30-37-37 cm = 10⅝"-10⅝"-11¾"-11¾"-14½"-14½", work collar together with jacket from right side as follows: Work 5 band stitches in garter stitch on jacket, knit first stitch from collar together with next stitch from yoke, * knit next stitch from collar together with next stitch from yoke *, work from *-* until last stitch on collar has been worked together with stitches on yoke, 5 band stitches now remain on yoke, work 5 band stitches in garter stitch. Bind off by purling from wrong side. ASSEMBLY: Sew the opening under the sleeves. Thread a thin elastic under the collar in last row on yoke, before collar and yoke were worked together. Begin approx. 2 cm = ¾" in from band and finish approx. 2 cm = ¾" before band in opposite side. This is done so that the collar keeps it shape and does not widen with use. Sew the buttons on to left band. Fold the folding edges at the bottom of the sleeves and body to the wrong side and sew them on, making sure that the seam does not tighten the edge. |

Håller på med denna , efter exakt angivna mått och rekommenderade stickor, ändå räcker inte garnet…storlek M 150 gram . Skulle behövas 175 gram för att få en färdig kofta. Är en van stickare, aldrig varit med om detta tidigare .
