---------------------------------------------------------- EXPLANATION FOR THE PATTERN: ---------------------------------------------------------- CHAIN STITCH: If you work at the end of crochet hook the chain stitch will often be too tight. 1 chain stitch should be just as long as 1 treble crochet is wide. CROCHET INFORMATION: At the beginning of every row when working strap, front piece and back piece, work 4 chain stitches, these chain stitches replace first treble crochet on row. At the beginning of every round with treble crochets when working in the round, work 3 chain stitches, these chain stitches replace first treble crochet, and finish round with 1 slip stitch in 3rd chain stitch at beginning of round. NOTE! When working in the round, turn piece after every round to work alternately from right side and wrong side. This is done so that the texture is the same when working in the round. PATTERN: Diagrams show all rows in pattern seen from the right side. Remember to read the diagrams from left to right when working from the wrong side. See diagrams A.1 to A.5. Choose diagram for correct size (applies to A.1). INCREASE 1 TREBLE CROCHET: Increase 1 treble crochet by working 2 treble crochets in the 5th stitch in from the side. INCREASE 2 TREBLE CROCHETS: Increase 2 treble crochets by working 2 treble crochets in 5th and 6th stitch in from the side. ---------------------------------------------------------- START THE PIECE HERE: ---------------------------------------------------------- TOP - SHORT OVERVIEW OF THE PIECE: Work top down. First work 2 loose shoulder straps back and forth, then work new stitches between shoulder straps for front piece. Work front piece back and forth down to armholes while AT THE SAME TIME increasing for armholes in each side. Work back piece the same way. At the armholes put front piece and back piece together, and work body in the round until finished measurements. Then sew shoulder straps together. If 0 is given for the chosen size, it means that you skip the information until next information. LEFT STRAP AT THE FRONT (when garment is worn): Work 14-14-18-18-20-20 CHAIN STITCHES - read explanation above, on hook size 3 mm with DROPS Safran. Turn and work first row from wrong side: Work 1 treble crochet in 5th chain stitch from hook, work 1 treble crochet in every chain stitch the entire row = 11-11-15-15-17-17 treble crochets (= 10-10-14-14-16-16 treble crochets + 4 chain stitches). Read CROCHET INFORMATION and work PATTERN - read explanation above, i.e. work A.1 back and forth until strap measures 7-6-7-7-6-7 cm and last row is worked from wrong side. Cut the yarn and work right strap as explained below. RIGHT STRAP AT THE FRONT (when garment is worn): Work 14-14-18-18-20-20 chain stitches, on hook size 3 mm. Turn and work first row from wrong side: Work 1 treble crochet in 5th chain stitch from hook, work 1 treble crochet in every chain stitch the entire row = 11-11-15-15-17-17 treble crochets (= 10-10-14-14-16-16 treble crochets + 4 chain stitches). Remember CROCHET INFORMATION and work A.1 back and forth until strap measures 7-6-7-7-6-7 cm and last row is worked from wrong side. Now slip right and left strap together for front piece as explained below (do not cut the yarn). FRONT PIECE: ROW 1 (= right side): Work from right side as before over right strap, work 43-47-45-51-55-63 chain stitches, work from right side as before over left strap = 65-69-75-81-89-97 stitches, turn piece.

Then work back and forth with 1 treble crochet in every treble crochet and A.2/A.3 at the edge in each side. Continue to increase 1 stitch in each side on every row for armholes as before, 4-5-4-5-7-5 more times (i.e. increase 1 stitch in each side 9-10-9-10-12-10 times in total including increases explained above), then INCREASE 2 TREBLE CROCHET in each side – read explanation above, 1-2-3-4-4-6 times in total = 87-97-105-117-129-141 stitches. Then work the last 2 rows as follows: ROW 1 (= right side): Work A.2 and increase 2 treble crochets, work 1 treble crochet in the next 0-1-1-1-1-1 treble crochet, work A.4A 18-20-22-25-28-31 times in total, work A.4B, work 1 treble crochet in the next 0-1-1-1-1-1 treble crochet, work A.3 over the last 6 stitches and increase 2 treble crochets, turn piece = 91-101-109-121-133-145 stitches.

Cut and fasten the yarn. Piece measures approx. 17-18-19-20-21-22 cm from chain stitch row on strap. Cut and fasten the yarn and work the back piece. BACK PIECE: Work the same way as front piece (front piece and back piece are identical). Now slip parts together and finish body in the round as explained below. BODY: ROUND 1: Begin by working 3-3-4-4-5-6 chain stitches, then work 1 treble crochet in each of the 95-105-113-125-137-149 stitches from back piece (work from right side), work 6-6-8-8-10-12 chain stitches for armhole, work 1 treble crochet in each of the 95-105-113-125-137-149 stitches from front piece, work 3-3-4-4-5-6 chain stitches for armhole, finish with 1 slip stitch in first chain stitch at beginning of round = 202-222-242-266-294-322 stitches. Beginning of round = in the side of body, turn piece. ROUND 2: Remember CROCHET INFORMATION and work 1 treble crochet in every stitch the entire round = 202-222-242-266-294-322 treble crochets, turn piece. Work 2nd ROUND until 6-6-6-8-8-8 rounds with treble crochets have been worked on body and increase at the same time 3 treble crochets evenly on first round = 205-225-245-269-297-325 treble crochets. Work next round as follows: Work 3 chain stitches (equals 1 treble crochet), work A.4A 51-56-61-67-74-81 times in total in the round on body, finish round with 1 slip stitch in 3rd chain stitch at beginning of round, turn piece. When A.4 has been worked vertically, work 6-6-6-8-8-8 rounds with treble crochets as before. Then work A.4A again over the next 2 rounds. Continue like this with alternately 6-6-6-8-8-8 round with treble crochets and 2 rounds with A.4A until A.4A has been worked 3 times in total vertically on body. When A.4A has been worked for the last time, continue in the round with treble crochets as before until finished measurements while AT THE SAME TIME on first round increasing 7 treble crochets evenly in all sizes = 212-232-252-276-304-332 stitches. Work until piece measures 42-44-46-48-50-52 cm from chain stitch row on shoulder strap (approx. 25-26-27-28-29-30 cm from where front piece and back piece were put together for body).

Hi me again. Thanks my issue isn’t with the numbers it’s the fact that the right side that you distinguish at the beginning changes to the wrong side with this count. You state the diagram is to be done on right side but when done working all those increases it is actually the wrong so so my question was does it change or reverse….
07.06.2024 - 12:40DROPS Design answered:
Dear Heather, after all increases have been worked (even numbered of rows) the next row should be worked from RS as you increase 1 stitch on each side 9-10-9-10-12-10 times in total + 2 stitches on each side 1-2-3-4-4-6 times = a total of 10-12-12-14-16-16 rows , starting from RS, the last row will be a row worked from WS) so that the row 1 with A.4 should be a row worked from RS. Happy crocheting!

On front piece after row 6 (which is wrong side) it says to work back and forth increasing 1 double crochet each side 5 times then 2 double crochet twice. My question is when done doing those rows it says to start the next two rows on a right side but it is a wrong side after doing all the increasing? What am I missing? Does the right and wrong side reverse at this point? Thank you.
06.06.2024 - 18:53DROPS Design answered:
Dear Heather, you first continue increasing first 2 sts (1 on each side) then 4 sts (2 on each side), you have then 87 - 141 sts then you work now the diagram A.4 as explained starting from right side. Happy crocheting!

Bonjour, Juste avant de rejoindre le dos et le devant sur le rang 2 c'est indiqué de refaire le dessin A4A mais on ne le voit pas sur la photo ? je ne comprends pas. merci de répondre à ma question.

Bonjour Jeanne, ce motif A.4 correspond à la 1ème rayure ajourée (à partir de l'encolure) que l'on peut voir sur la photo (le 1er motif A.4 étant au 5ème rang après l'encolure). Bon crochet!

The strap measures 7-6-7-7-6-7 cm 6cm seems far to short, 6 inches seems more likely. TY.
24.05.2024 - 10:46DROPS Design answered:
Dear Mrs Caz, the measurements in the UK-pattern are written in cm, this means the strap is first worked over 7-6-7-7-6-7 cm then you work the row joining both straps and casting on the stitches for neck inbetween, this will gives 1 extra cm to the straps which will be approx. 8-7-8-8-7-8 cm - see measurement chart. Happy crocheting!

Buonasera dopo aver lavorato le bretelle ed aver avviato le 43 catenelle non riesco a capire come agganciarmi con la bretella successiva per andare avanti con il lavoro grazie

Hi, row 5 of the front piece states to do A4A 15 times, then do A4B. In A4A there is a cluster then a chain stitch but in A4B there are no chain stitches. Will this not create holes one one side and no holes on the remaining side of the front? Is this correct? Help :) thank you in advance. Heather
17.05.2024 - 14:47DROPS Design answered:
Dear Heather, work A.4A as follows: *skip 1 stitch, work 3 dc (US-English crochet terminology/treble crochets in UK-English) in the next stitch, skip 2 sts, make 1 chain*, repeat from *-* a total of 15 times then work A.4B as follows: skip 1 stitch, work 3 dc/tr in the next stitch, skip 1 stitch (A.4B is worked over 3 sts only, there will be then 3 sts under each chain/hole).Happy crocheting!

Bonjour Céphora, A.4A se crochète ainsi sur 4 mailles:*sautez 1 bride, 3 brides dans la bride suivante, 1 maille en l'air, sautez 2 brides*, répétez de *à*. Au 2ème rang, crochetez 1 bride dans chaque maille (=4 brides pour chaque A.4A). Bon crochet!

Oh, and one more question: the pattern says that when crocheting the Last 2 rossz of the front piece we should work with A.4 in both rows which would create nice "holes" on the top in these 2 rows, but on the picture there is only one row with holes at that part. Thanks, Csilla
19.04.2024 - 23:03DROPS Design answered:
Dear Csilla, you work 2 rows in A.4, but only the first row of A.4 has holes, as you can see in A.4a. Happy crochetting!

Hello Drops Team, Thank you for your answer below! Now my question concerns ROW6 of the front piece; is it normal that for me this row doesn't turns out to be simmetrical at all in size L??? I've double checked & counted it several times... Thank you for answer Csilla
19.04.2024 - 22:31DROPS Design answered:
Dear Csilla, A.5b is like 2/3 of A.5a so, as you repeat A.5a, A.5b may look like it's part of A.5a. In the end it may not seem strictly symmetrical, but it will give enough of an illusion that it is. Happy knitting!

Hello! When starting the front piece, at ROW1, you start with double crochets at the bottom of the right strap then come the chain stiches (e.g. 45 ch in size L) and then you join the left strap with double crochets again? Or, when working on the bottom of the straps you continue to make diagram A1? Thanks in advance!
18.04.2024 - 10:22DROPS Design answered:
Dear Csilla, you work the right strap as before = with A.1 then crochet 45 chains and work the left strap just as before = with A.1. Then work A.3 at the beg of row from WS/end of row from RS and A.2 at the end of row from WS/beg of row from RS increasing 1 st on each side as explained. Happy crocheting!
