------------------------------------------------------- EXPLANATIONS FOR THE PATTERN: ------------------------------------------------------- PATTERN: See diagrams A.1 to A.4. CROCHET INFORMATION: Each round of double crochets begins with 3 chain stitches (does not replace the first double crochet) and finishes with 1 slip stitch in the 3rd chain stitch at the beginning of the round. Each round of single crochets begins with 1 chain stitch (does not replace the first single crochet) and finishes with 1 slip stitch in the first chain stitch. CHAIN STITCH: If you work outermost on the hook the chain stitch will often be too tight; 1 chain stitch should be as long as 1 single/double crochet is wide. INCREASE TIP: Increase 1 double crochet by working 2 double crochets in the same stitch. DECREASE TIP (sleeves): Start straight after the marker and work 1 double crochet, work the next 2 double crochets together as follows: * 1 yarn over, insert the hook through the next stitch, pick up the strand, 1 yarn over and pull it through the first 2 loops on the hook *, work from *-* 1 more time, 1 yarn over and pull it through all 3 loops on the hook (1 stitch decreased). Work until there are 3 stitches left on the round, work the next 2 double crochets together as above and work 1 double crochet in the last stitch. ------------------------------------------------------- START THE PIECE HERE: ------------------------------------------------------- SWEATER – SHORT OVERVIEW OF THE PIECE: The neck and yoke are worked in the round, top down and from mid-back. The yoke is divided for the body and sleeves, which are finished separately in the round. NECK: Work 84-86-90-92-96-100 chain stitches with hook size 4.5 MM = US 7 and DROPS Sky. Form them into a ring with 1 slip stitch in the first chain stitch. Work 1 double crochet in each stitch – read CROCHET INFORMATION and CHAIN STITCH! Work like this for 12 cm = 4¾". Insert 1 marker at the beginning of the round (mid-back), the yoke is measured from this marker! YOKE: Work A.1 over all stitches. On round 2 in A.1 increase 32-38-38-40-40-44 double crochets evenly spaced – read INCREASE TIP = 116-124-128-132-136-144 stitches. Work A.2 over all stitches. On round 3 in A.2 increase 28-36-36-36-36-40 double crochets evenly spaced = 144-160-164-168-172-184 stitches. On round 4 in A.2 increase 26-25-31-32-38-41 double crochets evenly spaced = 170-185-195-200-210-225 stitches. REMEMBER THE CROCHET GAUGE! Work A.3 over all stitches. On round 4 in A.3 increase 25-25-35-35-40-40 double crochets evenly spaced = 195-210-230-235-250-265 stitches. On round 9 in A.3 increase 16-17-16-29-31-34 double crochets evenly spaced = 211-227-246-264-281-299 stitches. On the last round in A.3 increase 13-17-14-28-27-33 double crochets evenly spaced = 224-244-260-292-308-332 stitches. Work 1 double crochet in each stitch until the yoke measures 21-23-24-26-27-29 cm = 8¼"-9"-9½"-10¼"-10⅝"-11⅜" from the marker. Now divide for the body and sleeves as follows: Work 1 double crochet in each of the first 34-38-40-44-48-52 stitches (half back piece), skip 44-46-50-58-58-62 stitches for the sleeve and work 8-8-10-10-12-12 chain stitches under the sleeve, work 1 double crochet in each of the next 68-76-80-88-96-104 stitches (front piece), skip 44-46-50-58-58-62 stitches for the sleeve and work 8-8-10-10-12-12 chain stitches under the sleeve, work 1 double crochet in each of the last 34-38-40-44-48-52 stitches (half back piece). BODY: = 152-168-180-196-216-232 stitches. Continue with 1 double crochet in each stitch and, on the first round, in each chain stitch under the sleeve. When the body measures 20-20-21-21-22-22 cm = 8"-8"-8¼"-8¼"-8¾"-8¾" from the division, work A.4 over all stitches. When A.4 is finished in height, continue with 1 double crochet in each stitch until the body measures 5 cm = 2" from the first round in A.4. Cut and fasten the strand. The sweater measures approx. 50-52-54-56-58-60 cm = 19¾"-20½"-21¼"-22"-22¾"-23⅝" from the shoulder down. SLEEVES: Work over the skipped stitches on one side of the piece as follows: Crochet 1 slip stitch in the 4th-4th-5th-5th-6th-6th chain stitch under sleeve, 3 chain stitches, crochet 1 double crochet in each of the next 3-3-4-4-5-5 chain stitches, 1 double crochet in each of the next 44-46-50-58-58-62 skipped stitches, 1 double crochet in each of the last 4-4-5-5-6-6 chain stitches under the sleeve = 52-54-60-68-70-74 stitches. Insert 1 marker in the middle of the 8-8-10-10-12-12 chain stitches under the sleeve. Start at the marker and work in the round with 1 double crochet in each stitch for 3 cm = 1⅛". Now decrease 2 stitches under the sleeve – read DECREASE TIP! Decrease like this every 5-4-3½-2-2-2 cm = 2"-1½"-1¼"-¾"-¾"-¾" a total of 6-6-8-12-12-13 times = 40-42-44-44-46-48 stitches. When the sleeve measures 35-33-33-31-31-29 cm = 13¾"-13"-13"-12¼"-12¼"-11⅜" from the division, work A.4 over all stitches. When A.4 is finished in height, continue with 1 double crochet in each stitch until the sleeve measures 5 cm = 2" from the first round in A.4. Cut and fasten the strand. Work the other sleeve in the same way. ASSEMBLY: Fold the neck double to the inside and sew a stitch in each side to keep it in place. |

Hello, no answer in CZ so far...? I have a question: a 10 cm test sample should have 16 DS. I'm crocheting a stand, size XL - 92 starting DCs. In the size drawing of the sweater, the stand should be 21 cm (i.e. 42 cm in total) = according to the test sample, it comes out to 67.2 DS, not 92...? The result is that I have a stand about 27 cm wide (total circumference 54 cm) instead of the stated 21 cm (or 42 cm). Can you clarify this for me? Thank you. 02/07/2024 - 08:54

Dear Linda, the 21 cm in the chart are for the width of neck, when jumper lies flat, the 92 sts will measure approx 58 cm circomference but these also include the shoulders (4 cm shoulders). So that you get: 58 - 16 cm shoulder / 2 = 21 cm. Happy crocheting!

Again trying to get the Silver Wreath going smoothly...... Was there a reason you decided not to include "in written pattern of yoke" all changes in pattern such as bobbles and mesh? Yes you have it on diagram IF you can understand it. However the Written pattern (especially yoke) does "not" match the picture. How very disappointing.....

Whew! All morning I have struggled with Silver Wreath pattern. What in the heck does "dc around stitch below mean"?? Your verbal explanation is not clear. And I looked for a tutorial but you have none. This is extremely frustrating!!

In conclusion in would be "far" more efficient rather than all the written and short videos to do "One Complete Video Tutorial" for sweater pattern as so many other people do. Sectioned off with time stamps for "particular stitches". To visually see is by far more efficient. I've spent hours on end trying to figure your instructions.

Your English interpretation is not clear and too complicated to understand. I am struggling with your patterns. It doesn't translate if you are thinking in your language and translating to English. Best to have an English speaker who speaks your language to do the translating.

Dobrý den, mám dotaz: zkušební vzorek 10 cm má mít 16 DS. Háčkuji stojáček, vel. XL - 92 počátečních ŘO. V nákresu velikosti svetru má mít stojáček 21 cm (tzn. celý 42 cm) = podle zkušebního vzorku to vychází 67, 2 DS, nikoli 92...? Výsledkem je, že mám stojáček široký asi 27 cm (celý obvod 54 cm) místo uvedených 21 cm (resp. 42 cm). Můžete mi to vyjasnit? Děkuji.

Hi, I have 195 stitches after row 1 of A3 which is correct for size L. I then work the two shell rounds (2 trebles/chain/2 trebles) over 5 stitches, followed by the third round of A3 (5 trebles across each shell inc chain) with increases, but end up with 380 stitches instead of 230.
17.01.2024 - 18:47DROPS Design answered:
Dear Gillian, A.3 is worked over 5 sts, this means you will repeat A.3 a total of 39 times in width, work A.3 as follows on 2nd row:( skip 2 sts, (2 tr, 1 ch, 2 tr) in the next st, skip 2 sts), repeat from (to) to the end of the round, you will have a total of 39 tr groups (1 in each repeat). On 4th round in A.3, work 1 tr in each stitch (= still 5 sts in each A.3) but increase evenly 35 sts = 195+35=230 sts. Hope it can help. Happy crocheting!

Hello, I chained 84 stitches and joined them in a ring, and since it is supposed to be a neck, how can it be enough? My head doesn't fit. How loose the foundation chain is supposed to be?
18.11.2023 - 18:43DROPS Design answered:
Dear Eimante, make sure you get the correct tension; then make sure the foundation chain will not be too tight, use a larger crochet if needed making sure this is loose enough, if you increase the number of stitches, the neck edge will be then too large around your own neck. Happy crocheting!

El jersey queda perfecto hasta la última vuelta de A.3. Después he hecho 14 vueltas para acabar el canesú pero, al no haber más aumentos, los hombros quedan encajados, no hay movilidad para los brazos. Debería ir aumentando puntos en esas 14 vueltas??
12.10.2023 - 13:50DROPS Design answered:
Hola Esperanza, comprueba que la tensión del tejido esté correcta. Si se mantiene la tensión del tejido indicada arriba, después de A.3, deberían quedarte alrededor de 3 vueltas para que el canesú llegue a la medida final, antes de dividir. Ten en cuenta que la tensión es : 8 filas = 10cm, así que si trabajaras 14 vueltas significa que estás trabajando aprox. 20cm más, cuando el canesú debe medir entre 21 y 29cm (dependiendo de la talla) en total.

Moet ik aan het begin van de trui doorgaan met 1 stokje per steek tot een hoogte van 12 cm? En dan aan de pas beginnen?

Dag Nienke,
Ja klopt, je haakt 12 cm in de hoogte voor de hals en dan begin je aan de pas.
