Then cast off the middle 30 sts for neck. Finish each shoulder (= 26-27-28-29-30-31 sts) separately. Continue the pattern with 5 sts in garter st towards the neck.

When piece measures 40 cm, inc 1 st in the side. Repeat inc every 3 cm a total of 4 times (work inc sts in reverse stocking st). BUTTON HOLES: At the same time when piece measures 18-19-20-21-22-23 cm, cast off for button holes - see explanation above.

ARMHOLE: At the same time when piece measures 55-56-57-58-59-60 cm, cast off and dec for armhole in the side as on back piece. After all inc and dec, there are 46-47-48-49-51-53 sts on needle.

On next row (= WS), cast off the first 22-23-24-25-27-29 sts for shoulder, K the rest of row. Continue like this over the remaining 20 collar sts: * K 2 rows over all sts, K 2 rows over only the outermost 14 sts (towards mid front) *, repeat from *-* until collar measures approx. 7-8 cm at the inside (it will then measure approx. 14-16 cm at the edge). Cast off. LEFT FRONT PIECE: Cast on and work as right front piece but reversed. I.e. after 2 rows K, work pattern as follows (from RS): SIZE S, M, L and XL: 1 edge st in garter st, P 12-17-22-27 sts, diagram M.4A (= 40 sts), P 6 sts, K 4 sts and 5 band sts in garter st. Size XXL and XXXL: 1 edge st in garter st, P 16-21 sts, diagram M.2 (= 20 sts), diagram M.4A, P 6 sts, K 4 sts and 5 band sts in garter st. Then work diagram M.4B and diagram M.4C instead of diagram M.3B and diagram M.3C. Sts over cable on shoulder are cast off from WS and shoulder sts from RS; this is done opposite from right front piece to avoid cutting the thread when working the collar. SLEEVE: Worked back and forth on needle. Cast on 100-100-100-116-116-132 sts (incl 1 edge st in each side) on needle size 3.5 mm with Karisma. K 1 row (1st row = RS) and P 1 row, then K all sts tog 2 by 2 = 50-50-50-58-58-66 sts. K 1 row from WS. Then work rib = K 4/P 4 with 1 edge st in garter st in each side. When piece measures 10 cm, switch to needle size 4 mm and continue in reverse stocking st. AT THE SAME TIME when piece measures 13-13-13-13-11-11 cm, inc 1 st each side, repeat inc every 3-2½-2-2-2-2 cm a total of 12-14-16-15-17-16 times = 74-78-82-88-92-98 sts. When piece measures 49-48-47-46-45-44 cm (shorter measurements in the larger sizes because of longer sleeve cap and broader shoulder width) cast off and dec for sleeve cap at beg of every row in each side: 4 sts 1 time, 2 sts 3 times, 1 st 5-6-7-9-10-12 times and then 2 sts in each side until piece measures 57 cm. Continue to cast off 3 sts 1 time in each side, then cast off the remaining sts. Sleeve measures approx. 58 cm. ASSEMBLY: Sew the shoulder seams. Sew collar tog mid back, edge to edge to avoid a chunky seam. Sew collar to the back of neckline. Sew in sleeves and sew under arm and side seams in one inside 1 edge st. Sew on buttons. |

Als je de meerderingen voor de kraag hebt gedaan heb je 20 steken plus de 5 st. Waarom staat er dan dat je over de overgebleven 20 st ribbelsteek blijft breien nadat je voor de schouder hebt afgekant? Waar zijn de andere 5 steken dan? Dankjewel
02.09.2020 - 16:42DROPS Design answered:
Dag Petrie,
Er zijn 20 steken gemeerderd voor de kraag en daardoor zijn er inderdaad in totaal 25 steken in ribbelsteek. Nadat je steken hebt afgekant voor de schouder heb je 20 steken over. De andere ribbelsteken zijn afgekant.

Size M Front pieces Start 73 stitches PLUS increases (Side 5, Collar20) = 98 MINUS decreases (patternM3B 6, armhole 14, side 11, neckline 21) = 46 not 47 where am I going wrong ? Please help - I have to undo back to the last buttonhole if my calculation is wrong ...

Dear Linda, you start with 73 sts, decrease 6 sts in M.3B, decrease 10 sts on the side and increase 4 sts on the side, increaes for collar 12 sts and decrease 12 sts for neck then cast off and decrease for armhole (5 +3+2+2+1+1 = 14 sts) = 73-6-10+4-12+12-14= 47 sts. Happy knitting!

Hallo, ben dit vest aan het breien met drops karisma op nld no 4. Nu heb ik patr. M1a 1 keer gebreid tot m1b maar heb bij lange na geen 32 cm maar 15 cm. Wat doe ik verkeerd? Gr. Sonja ter Haar
27.06.2020 - 09:28DROPS Design answered:
Dag Sonja,
Het is de bedoeling dat je M.1a in de hoogte herhaalt totdat je op 32 cm bent.

Vindt het lastig dat er vragen in een andere taal wordt beantwoordt. Kan dat niet gewoon in de taal waarmee de vraag is gesteld? Vindt ook de patronen warrig geschreven en niet logisch, ik zit nu bij de kraag en waarbij staat "brei 2 naalden recht over alle steken, brei 2 naalden recht over alleen de buitenste 14 steken (middenvoor), *herhaal van *-*. tot de kraag 14-16 cm aan buitenkant. Kant alle steken af. Hier begrijp ik echt niets van?!

Ik kom bij minderingen/meerderen op een andere steken verhouding als in beschrijving ik heb 128 steken opgezet, bij 12 cm 10 X geminderd beide zijde = 108 st over op naald, bij 40 cm meerderen 4x 1 st aan beide zijde = 116 st op de naald, bij beschrijving is het "alle minderingen en meerderingen gedaan zijn staan er 102 st op de naald".

Ik snap de meerderingen voor de kraag niet. Waar maak ik die, na de 5 steken van de bies, of aan de buitenkant. Maar daar kan ik toch geen omslag maken?
13.01.2020 - 21:55DROPS Design answered:
Dag Tineke,
Je meerdert inderdaad aan de buitenkant naast de laatste steek van de bies (en als je 2 meerderingen maakt ook naast de een na laaste steek).

Thank you for your response. One more question I have as I have started the pattern. When working the diagram I have completed the first 2 knit rows and changed to the larger needles and completed the first row of the diagram. For the second row I am wondering if you can clarify that I work it left to right and if I change the pearl rows to knit or do as pattern says. I know the pearl side is used on the body but for the cabling section is it knit side out or pearl side out for these stitches
