EXPLANATIONS FOR THE PATTERN: ------------------------------------------------------- RIDGE/GARTER STITCH (worked in the round): 1 ridge = 2 rounds. Knit 1 round and purl 1 round. RIDGE/GARTER STITCH (worked back and forth): 1 ridge = Knit 2 rows. INCREASE TIP-1 (evenly spaced): To work out how to increase evenly, count the total number of stitches on the needle (e.g. 106 stitches) and divide by the number of increases to be made (e.g. 14) = 7.57. In this example, increase by making a yarn over after alternately each 7th and each 8th stitch (approx.). On the next round work the yarn overs twisted to avoid holes. INCREASE TIP-2 (for the sides of the body): Work until there are 4 stitches left before the marker thread, 1 yarn over, knit 2 (the marker thread sits in the middle of these 4 stitches), 1 yarn over. Increase like this at both marker threads (= 4 stitches increased). On the next round, knit the yarn overs twisted to avoid holes. Then work the new stitches in stocking stitch. STRIPES: Knit 1 round with black. Knit 1 round with winter. Repeat these 2 rounds. 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 (the marker thread sits in the middle of these 2 stitches), slip 1 stitch as if to knit, knit 1, pass the slipped stitch over the knitted stitch (= 2 stitches decreased). ------------------------------------------------------- START THE PIECE HERE: ------------------------------------------------------- JUMPER – SHORT OVERVIEW OF THE PIECE: The piece is worked top down. The neck is worked in the round with circular needle. Then you continue with garter stitch and short rows, back and forth in sections; you increase in each section. You work 1 ridge in the round with off white between each section. There are a total of 6 sections. The yoke is divided for sleeves and body which are completed separately. The body is worked in the round with circular needle. The sleeves are worked in the round with double pointed needles. NECK: Cast on 106-110-115-122-127-134 stitches with circular needle size 3 mm and black. Work 2 RIDGES in the round – read description above. Change to circular needle size 3.5 mm. Work 1 ridge in the round with off white and increase 14-15-15-8-13-16 stitches evenly on the first round (= the knitted round) – read INCREASE TIP-1 = 120-125-130-130-140-150 stitches. YOKE: The yoke is continued in sections, back and forth with short rows and in the round with garter stitch as follows: SECTION 1: Continue with winter as follows: Work 2-2-3-4-4-4 ridges in the round. Insert 1 marker at the beginning of the round. Now work section 1 with short rows back and forth in GARTER STITCH – read description above, as follows: ROW 1 (= right side): Knit until there are 5 stitches left before the marker (= 115-120-125-125-135-145 stitches), turn, tighten the strand. ROW 2 (= wrong side): Knit until there are 5 stitches left before the marker (= 110-115-120-120-130-140 stitches), turn, tighten the strand. ROW 3 (= right side): Knit until there are 10 stitches left before the marker (= 105-110-115-115-125-135 stitches), turn, tighten the strand. ROW 4 (= wrong side): Knit until there are 10 stitches left before the marker (= 100-105-110-110-120-130 stitches), turn, tighten the strand. ROW 5 (= right side): Knit until there are 15 stitches left before the marker (= 95-100-105-105-115-125 stitches), turn, tighten the strand. ROW 6 (= wrong side): Knit until there are 15 stitches left before the marker (= 90-95-100-100-110-120 stitches), turn, tighten the strand. Continue like this, i.e. work 5 fewer stitches each time you turn, until you have worked 1 row over the last 10-15-10-10-10-10 stitches from the wrong side (= 11-11-12-12-13-14 ridges). Cut the strand. Continue working in the round with off white as follows: Start at the marker (= start of the round). ROUND 1: * Knit 5 stitches, 1 yarn over (i.e. make 1 yarn over where the short row turned) * work from *-* to end of round (= 24-25-26-26-28-30 stitches increased) = 144-150-156-156-168-180 stitches. ROUND 2: Purl all stitches (the yarn overs are not purled twisted; there will be holes). REMEMBER THE KNITTING TENSION! SECTION 2: Move the marker 72-75-78-78-84-90 stitches (i.e. the beginning of the round is displaced 72-75-78-78-84-90 stitches and section 2 is now worked, starting at the marker). Continue with black as follows: Work 2-2-3-4-4-4 ridges in the round AT THE SAME TIME as you increase 24-25-52-52-56-60 stitches on the first round (= knitted round) i.e. increase with 1 yarn over after every 6th-6th-3rd-3rd-3rd-3rd stitch. The yarn overs are worked twisted on the next round to avoid holes = 168-175-208-208-224-240 stitches. Now work section 2 with short rows, back and forth in garter stitch as follows: ROW 1 (= right side): Knit until there are 7-7-8-8-8-8 stitches left before the marker (= 161-168-200-200-216-232 stitches), turn, tighten the strand. ROW 2 (= wrong side): Knit until there are 7-7-8-8-8-8 stitches before the marker (= 154-161-192-192-208-224 stitches), turn, tighten the strand. ROW 3 (= right side): Knit until there are 14-14-16-16-16-16 stitches left before the marker (= 147-154-184-184-200-216 stitches), turn, tighten the strand. ROW 4 (= wrong side): Knit until there are 14-14-16-16-16-16 stitches left before the marker (= 140-147-176-176-192-208 stitches), turn, tighten the strand. ROW 5 (= right side): Knit until there are 21-21-24-24-24-24 stitches left before the marker (= 133-140-168-168-184-200 stitches), turn, tighten the strand. ROW 6 (= wrong side): Knit until there are 21-21-24-24-24-24 stitches left before the marker (= 126-133-160-160-176-192 stitches), turn, tighten the strand. Continue like this, i.e. work 7-7-8-8-8-8 fewer stitches each time you turn until you have worked 1 row over the last 14-21-16-16-16-16 stitches from the wrong side (= 11-11-12-12-13-14 ridges). Cut the strand. Continue in the round with off white as follows: Start at the marker (= start of the round). ROUND 1: Knit * 7-7-8-8-8-8 stitches, 1 yarn over (i.e. make 1 yarn over where the short row turned) * work from *-* to end of round (= 24-25-26-26-28-30 stitches increased) = 192-200-234-234-252-270 stitches. ROUND 2: Purl all stitches (the yarn overs are not purled twisted, there will be holes). SECTION 3: Move the marker 96-100-117-117-126-135 stitches (i.e. the beginning of the round is displaced by 96-100-117-117-126-135 stitches, section 3 is worked starting at the marker). Continue with winter as follows: Work 2-2-3-4-4-4 ridges in the round AT THE SAME TIME as you increase 24-25-26-26-28-30 stitches evenly on the first round (= knitted round); i.e. increase by making 1 yarn over after every 8th-8th-9th-9th-9th-9th stitch. The yarn overs are worked twisted on the next round to avoid holes = 216-225-260-260-280-300 stitches. Now work section 3 with short rows back and forth in garter stitch as follows: ROW 1 (= right side): Knit until there are 9-9-10-10-10-10 stitches left before the marker (= 207-216-250-250-270-290 stitches), turn, tighten the strand. ROW 2 (= wrong side): Knit until there are 9-9-10-10-10-10 stitches left before the marker (= 198-207-240-240-260-280 stitches), turn, tighten the strand. ROW 3 (= right side): Knit until there are 18-18-20-20-20-20 stitches before the marker (= 189-198-230-230-250-270 stitches), turn, tighten the strand. ROW 4 (= wrong side): Knit until there are 18-18-20-20-20-20 stitches left before the marker (= 180-189-220-220-240-260 stitches), turn, tighten the strand. ROW 5 (= right side): Knit until there are 27-27-30-30-30-30 stitches left before the marker (= 171-180-210-210-230-250 stitches), turn, tighten the strand. ROW 6 (= wrong side): Knit until there are 27-27-30-30-30-30 stitches left before the marker (= 162-171-200-200-220-240 stitches), turn, tighten the strand. Continue like this, i.e. work 9-9-10-10-10-10 fewer stitches each time you turn until you have worked 1 row over the last 18-27-20-20-20-20 stitches from the wrong side (= 11-11-12-12-13-14 ridges). Cut the strand. Continue in the round with off white: Start at the marker (= start of the round). ROUND 1: Knit * 9-9-10-10-10-10 stitches, 1 yarn over (i.e. you make 1 yarn over where the short row turned) * work from *-* to end of round (= 24-25-26-26-28-30 stitches increased) = 240-250-286-286-308-330 stitches. ROUND 2: Purl all stitches (the yarn overs are not purled twisted, there will be holes). SECTION 4: Move the marker 120-125-143-143-154-165 stitches (i.e. the beginning of the round is now displaced by 120-125-143-143-154-165 stitches, section 4 starts from the marker). Continue working with black as follows: Work 2-2-3-4-4-4 ridges in the round AT THE SAME TIME as you increase 24-25-26-26-28-30 stitches evenly spaced on the first round (= the knitted round); i.e. you increase with 1 yarn over after every 10th-10th-11th-11th-11th-11th stitch. The yarn overs are worked twisted on the next round to avoid holes = 264-275-312-312-336-360 stitches. Now work section 4 with short rows back and forth in garter stitch as follows: ROW 1 (= right side): Knit until there are 11-11-12-12-12-12 stitches left before the marker (= 253-264-300-300-324-348 stitches), turn, tighten the strand. ROW 2 (= wrong side): Knit until there are 11-11-12-12-12-12 stitches left before the marker (= 242-253-288-288-312-336 stitches), turn, tighten the strand. ROW 3 (= right side): Knit until there are 22-22-24-24-24-24 stitches left before the marker (= 231-242-276-276-300-324 stitches), turn, tighten the strand. ROW 4 (= wrong side): Knit until there are 22-22-24-24-24-24 stitches left before the marker (= 220-231-264-264-288-312 stitches), turn, tighten the strand.

ROW 6 (= wrong side): Knit until there are 33-33-36-36-36-36 stitches left before the marker (= 198-209-240-240-264-288 stitches), turn, tighten the strand. Continue like this, i.e. you work 11-11-12-12-12-12 fewer stitches each time you turn, until you have worked 1 row over the last 22-33-24-24-24-24 stitches from the wrong side (= 11-11-12-12-13-14 ridges). Cut the strand. Continue working in the round with off white as follows: Start at the marker (= the start of the round). ROUND 1: Knit * 11-11-12-12-12-12 stitches, 1 yarn over (i.e. you make 1 yarn over where the short row turned) * work from *-* to end of round (= 24-25-26-26-28-30 stitches increased) = 288-300-338-338-364-390 stitches. ROUND 2: Purl all stitches (the yarn overs are not purled twisted, there will be holes). SECTION 5: Move the marker 144-150-169-169-182-195 stitches (i.e. the start of the round is now displaced by 144-150-169-169-182-195 stitches, section 5 starts from the marker). Continue in winter as follows: Work 2-2-3-4-4-4 ridges in the round AT THE SAME TIME as you increase 0-25-26-26-28-30 stitches evenly spaced on the first round (the knitted round) i.e. you increase with 1 yarn over after every 0-12th-13th-13th-13th.-13th stitch. The yarn overs are worked twisted on the next round to avoid holes = 288-325-364-364-392-420 stitches. Now work section 5 with short rows back and forth in garter stitch as follows: ROW 1 (= right side): Knit until there are 12-13-14-14-14-14 stitches left before the marker (= 276-312-350-350-378-406 stitches), turn, tighten the strand. ROW 2 (= wrong side): Knit until there are 12-13-14-14-14-14 stitches left before the marker (= 264-299-336-336-364-392 stitches), turn, tighten the strand. ROW 3 (= right side): Knit until there are 24-26-28-28-28-28 stitches left before the marker (= 252-286-322-322-350-378 stitches), turn, tighten the strand. ROW 4 (= wrong side): Knit until there are 24-26-28-28-28-28 stitches left before the marker (= 240-273-308-308-336-364 stitches), turn, tighten the strand. ROW 5 (= right side): Knit until there are 36-39-42-42-42-42 stitches left before the marker (= 228-260-294-294-322-350 stitches), turn, tighten the strand. ROW 6 (= wrong side): Knit until there are 36-39-42-42-42-42 stitches left before the marker (= 216-247-280-280-308-336 stitches), turn, tighten the strand. Continue like this, i.e. you work 12-13-14-14-14-14 fewer stitches each time you turn, until you have worked 1 row over the last 24-39-28-28-28-28 stitches from the wrong side (= 11-11-12-12-13-14 ridges). Cut the strand. Continue in the round with off white as follows: Start at the marker (= the start of the round). ROUND 1: Knit * 12-13-14-14-14-14 stitches, 1 yarn over (i.e. you make 1 yarn over where the short row turned) * work from *-* to end of round (= 24-25-26-26-28-30 stitches increased) = 312-350-390-390-420-450 stitches. ROUND 2: Purl all stitches (the yarn overs are not purled twisted, there will be holes). SECTION 6: Move the marker 156-175-195-195-210-225 stitches (i.e. the start of the round is now displaced by 156-175-195-195-210-225 stitches, section 6 starts at the marker). Continue with black as follows: Work 2-2-3-4-4-4 ridges in the round AT THE SAME TIME as you increase 0-0-0-26-28-30 stitches evenly spaced on the first round (= the knitted round); i.e. you increase with 1 yarn over after every 0-0-0-15th-15th-15th stitch. The yarn overs are worked twisted on the next round to avoid holes = 312-350-390-416-448-480 stitches. Now work section 6 with short rows back and forth in garter stitch as follows: ROW 1 (= right side): Knit until there are 13-14-15-16-16-16 stitches left before the marker (= 299-336-375-400-432-464 stitches), turn, tighten the strand. ROW 2 (= wrong side): Knit until there are 13-14-15-16-16-16 stitches left before the marker (= 286-322-360-384-416-448 stitches), turn, tighten the strand. ROW 3 (= right side): Knit until there are 26-28-30-32-32-32 stitches left before the marker (= 273-308-345-368-400-432 stitches), turn, tighten the strand. ROW 4 (= wrong side): Knit until there are 26-28-30-32-32-32 stitches left before the marker (= 260-294-330-352-384-416 stitches), turn, tighten the strand. ROW 5 (= right side): Knit until there are 39-42-45-48-48-48 stitches left before the marker (= 247-280-315-336-368-400 stitches), turn, tighten the strand. ROW 6 (= wrong side): Knit until there are 39-42-45-48-48-48 stitches left before the marker (= 234-266-300-320-352-384 stitches), turn, tighten the strand. Continue like this, i.e. you work 13-14-15-16-16-16 fewer stitches each time you turn, until you have worked 1 row over the last 26-42-30-32-32-32 stitches from the wrong side (= 11-11-12-12-13-14 ridges). Cut the strand. Continue in the round with off white as follows: Start at the marker (= the start of the round). ROUND 1: Knit. ROUND 2: Purl. Cut the strand. There are now 312-350-390-416-448-480 stitches on the needle. Displace the round by 33-37-41-43-44-46 stitches forward (i.e. slip the first 33-37-41-43-44-46 stitches (= half of the sleeve) over on the right needle, place a marker here = start of the round). Now continue in the round in STRIPES – read description above. When the piece measures 21-23-24-26-28-30 cm from the cast-on edge, divide the piece as follows: Work the first 90-101-113-122-136-148 stitches (= back piece), place the next 66-74-82-86-88-92 stitches on a thread for the sleeve and cast on 8-8-10-10-12-12 stitches under the sleeve, work the next 90-101-113-122-136-148 stitches (= front piece), place the next 66-74-82-86-88-92 stitches on a thread for the sleeve and cast on 8-8-10-10-12-12 stitches under the sleeve = 196-218-246-264-296-320 stitches. Insert 1 marker thread in the middle of the 8-8-10-10-12-12 new stitches under each sleeve and move the start of the round to one of these markers. BODY: Continue in the round in stripes. When the piece measures 3 cm from where the sleeves were divided from the body, increase 1 stitch on each side of each marker thread - read INCREASE TIP-2. Increase like this every 4-4-8-6-8-6 cm a total of 6-6-3-4-3-4 times = 220-242-258-280-308-336 stitches. Continue with stocking stitch and stripes until the body measures 30-30-31-31-31-31 cm from where the sleeves were divided from the body. Change to circular needle size 3 mm. Now continue in garter stitch with black until the piece measures 33-33-34-34-34-34 cm from where the body and sleeves were divided. Cast off with knit; make sure the cast-off edge is not tight; you can use a size larger needle if this is a problem. SLEEVE: Place the 66-74-82-86-88-92 stitches from the thread on the one side of the piece on double pointed needles size 3.5 mm and knit up 1 stitch in each of the 8-8-10-10-12-12 stitches cast on under the sleeve = 74-82-92-96-100-104 stitches. Insert 1 marker thread in the middle of the 8-8-10-10-12-12 stitches under the sleeve. Continue with stocking stitch and stripes. When the piece measures 1 cm from where the sleeves were divided from the body, decrease 1 stitch on each side of the marker thread - read DECREASE TIP. Decrease like this every 2½-2-1½-1½-1½-1 cm a total of 13-16-20-20-21-22 times = 48-50-52-56-58-60 stitches. When the sleeve measures 39-38-37-36-35-33 cm from where the sleeves were divided from the body, change to double pointed needles size 3 mm. Now continue with garter stitch and black until the sleeve measures 42-41-40-39-38-36 cm from where it was divided from the body. Cast off with knit; make sure the cast-off edge is not tight, you can use a size larger needle if this is a problem. |

Hei Sanne. Når bolen (ryg&bakstykke) strikkes, strikkes det glattstrikk. Om du ser nærmere på bildet uten hode, kan du se forskjellen der det er er strikket riller over bærestykket og der det er enn er strikket med striper på bolen (ryd&bakstykk). mvh DROPS Design

Hei Ulrika. Litt usikker om jeg har forstått spørsmålet ditt riktig, Men når du strikker de 6 bitene ( 1. pinne til 6. pinne + 2 omganger), strikkes hver bit med start og slutt fra der du setter merket, slik at hver bit ( 1. pinne til 6. pinne + 2 omganger) får forskjellige start/stopp steder (= 6 ulike start/stopp steder). mvh DROPS Design

I understand the short rows directions. My question is, are the 3 ridges that are knit before the short rows. Are they counted in the number of ridges for that section? If so, that would mean there are 15 ridges per section. Thanks, kari
17.01.2022 - 16:02DROPS Design answered:
Dear Kari, yes correct, you will have a total of 15 ridges for each section, 3 before short rows + 12 with short rows (in 3rd size only). Happy knitting!
17.01.2022 - 16:30Kari Falk wrote:
At the beginning of each section, it says to knit 3 ridges (increasing on the first round). Then start knitting the short rows you knit until you have 12 ridges. In order to follow the number of stitches left in the short rows, I am assuming that there will be 15 total ridges in each section. I hope so, because I am on section 3, and I really don't want to take everything out! Thanks!
17.01.2022 - 00:16DROPS Design answered:
Dear Mrs Falk, in 3rd size work the short rows in the 3rd section as follows: knit 250 sts, turn and knit 240 sts, turn and knit 230 sts, turn and knit 220 sts and so on, ie you will knit 10 sts less on every row until you have worked the last row = 20 sts from WS. This means you have worked a total of 24 rows = 12 ridges. Can this help?

I am making the Falling Circles sweater. At the end of section 1, the directions say "cut the strand. Continue working in the round as follows: Start at the marker(=start of the round)". Ok, does that mean I go back to the original start in marker, which is approximately 65 stitches from where my needles are? Does this mean that I slide all the needles to the left hand needle and go back to the beginning? I will put the sweater aside until I get clarification of the directions. Thank you.

Dear Mrs Falk, correct, slip the stitches without working them until you reach the marker and start next round from here. Happy knitting!

Hej Marie, Ja den er ret så avanceret :). Du bør have alle masker på pinden, men du har strikket flere pinde over de sidste 15 masker. Nu klipper du tråden og starter ved mærket igen og strikker rundt over alle masker med natur. God fornøjelse!

Bonjour, pour la section 2 il faut décaler le marqueur de 78 mailles. Décale-t-on vers la gauche ( en avançant de 78) ou vers la droite, c'est-à-dire en reculant de 78 ? Merci

Bonjour Christelle, ce sera la même chose car vous décalez le début du tour de l'autre côté = au milieu du tour. Vous avez 156 mailles sur l'aiguille, le début du tour doit être maintenant au milieu de ces 156 m soit 78 m avant/après. Bon tricot!

Dear Mrs Wenman, simply slip the 78 sts from the left to the right needles without working them, and insert now the marker here. Happy knitting!

Hallo, Nach der ersten zacke soll ja eine Trennlinie in natur kommen. Dies sieht allerdings nicht gut aus, da die letzte Reihe mit Winter eine Reihe mit rechts gestrickten Maschen ist. Könnte ich evtl eine Reihe mit linken Maschen drüber stricken, damit die Abgrenzung so wie ganz am Anfang aussieht oder wird das dann Zuviel bzw. habe ich evtl was falsch verstanden? Vielen Dank im voraus und liebe Grüsse Becker

Liebe Frau Becker, wegen den verkürzten Reihen, werden nicht alle Maschen gleich aussehen (= einige Maschen werden rechts, andere links), die Natur-Streife wird dann über alle Maschen gestrickt um die unterschiedlichen Streifen zu "trennen", gerne können Sie anders stricken, wie Sie es lieber haben. Viel Spaß beim stricken!
