Work A.1 with 1 stitch in garter stitch on each side. When the sleeve measures 10 cm = 4", increase 1 stitch on each side – read INCREASE TIP. Increase like this every 9-9-8½-8½-8-7½ cm = 3½"-3½"-3¼"-3¼"-3⅛"-2⅞" a total of 5 times on each side = 40-42-44-46-48-50 stitches. When the sleeve measures 48-48-47-46-45-43 cm = 19"-19"-18½"-18"-17¾"-17", insert 1 marker in each side – they mark the bottom of the armhole.

Continue this pattern. AT THE SAME TIME on the next row from the right side, increase 1 stitch on each side of the middle garter-stitches by making 1 yarn over; on the next row work the yarn overs twisted to avoid holes then work the new stitches into A.1. Increase like this every 4th row a total of 5 times (the number of middle garter-stitches remains the same – A.1 increases) = 61-61-63-65-67-67 stitches. When the collar measures 16-16-17-17-18-18 cm = 6¼"-6¼"-6¾"-6¾"-7"-7", work 2 rows of rib (knit 1, purl 1) with 7 band stitches in garter stitch on each side.

Mit Originalwolle in genau dieser Farbe gestrickt. Die Jacke ist traumhaft schön geworden und das erste Strickstück, dass mir tatsächlich exakt passt. Vielen Dank für die tollen Anleitungen und die schöne Wolle! Freue mich schon auf das nächste Strickprojekt!

Ik wil dit vest graag breien met een enkele draad in garengroep C. Moet ik dan het dubbele aantal steken opzetten? Ik brei nog niet zo lang dus ik wil het graag eerst even navragen voordat ik begin en alles weer uit kan halen.

Dag Ina,
Je zou het patroon dan om moeten rekenen op basis van de stekenverhouding, dus het aantal steken over 10 cm van je proeflapje, maar je moet ook rekening houden met de positie van de kabels, de meerderingen en minderingen, etc. Helaas is het voor ons niet mogelijk om een patroon aan te passen naar persoonlijke wensen. Het is het handigst als de stekenverhouding overeen komt met die in het patroon, zodat je het patroon gewoon kan volgen.
