INCREASE TIP-1 (evenly spaced): To work out how to increase evenly, count the total number of stitches on needle (e.g. 108 stitches) and divide by the number of increases to be made.(e.g. 36) = 3. In this example, increase by making 1 yarn over after each 3rd stitch. On the next round knit the yarn overs twisted to avoid holes. DECREASE TIP (for mid under sleeves): Decrease 1 stitch on each side of the marker thread as follows: Work until there are 2 stitches left before the marker thread, knit 2 together, marker thread, slip 1 stitch as if to knit, knit 1 and pass the slipped stitch over the knitted stitch (= 2 stitches decreased). ------------------------------------------------------- START THE PIECE HERE: ------------------------------------------------------- SWEATER - SHORT OVERVIEW OF THE PIECE: The neck and body are worked in the round with circular needle, top down. The yoke is divided for body and sleeves. The body is continued in the round with circular needle, top down. The sleeves are worked in the round with short circular needle/double pointed needles, top down. NECK: Cast on 108-112-116-120-124-128 stitches with short circular needle size 3 mm = US 2,5 and Muskat. Work A.1 in the round. Continue this pattern until A.1 has been worked 1 time in height. Knit 1 round where you increase 36-36-38-40-40-42 stitches evenly spaced – read INCREASE TIP-1 = 144-148-154-160-164-170 stitches. Then work yoke as described below. YOKE: Change to circular needle size 4 mm = US 6 and work stockinette stitch in the round. AT THE SAME TIME increase as described below. REMEMBER THE KNITTING GAUGE! When the piece measures 4-5-5-5-6-6 cm = 1 1/2”-2”-2”-2”-2 3/8”-2 3/8” from the cast-on edge increase 30-44-50-58-60-62 stitches evenly spaced = 174-192-204-218-224-232 stitches. Continue with stockinette stitch. When the piece measures 6-7-8-9-10-11 cm = 2 3/8”-2 3/4”-3 1/8”-3 1/2”-4”-4 3/8” from the cast-on edge increase 26-38-46-52-56-58 stitches evenly spaced = 200-230-250-270-280-290 stitches. Work 1 round with stockinette stitch. Then work A.2 in the round (= 20-23-25-27-28-29 repeats of 10 stitches). Continue this pattern, but on the round marked with an arrow in A.2, displace the start of the round 2 stitches to the left; i.e. slip the first 2 stitches onto the right needle without working them, then work A.2 in the round. The 2 stitches which were slipped onto the right needle are worked in the last repeat of A.2. The next round starts as usual. When A.2 has been completed there are 240-276-300-324-336-348 stitches on the needle. Continue in the round with stockinette stitch. AT THE SAME TIME increase as described below. When the piece measures 15-16-17-18-20-21 cm = 6”-6 1/4”-6 3/4”-7”-8”-8 1/4” from the cast-on edge increase 20-20-22-24-28-30 stitches evenly spaced = 260-296-322-348-364-378 stitches. Continue with stockinette stitch. When the piece measures 17-18-19-21-23-25 cm = 6 3/4”-7”-7 1/2”-8 1/4”-9”-9 3/4” from the cast-on edge increase 10-14-20-22-26-28 stitches evenly spaced = 270-310-342-370-390-406 stitches. Continue in the round with stockinette stitch until the piece measures 18-20-22-24-26-28 cm = 7”-8”-8 3/4”-9 1/2”-10 1/4”-11” from the cast-on edge mid front. Now divide the yoke for body and sleeves as follows: Work 41-46-50-55-59-63 stitches in stockinette stitch (= ½ back piece), place the next 53-63-71-75-77-77 stitches on 1 thread for sleeve, cast on 8-8-10-10-12-14 new stitches on the needle (= in side under sleeve), work 82-92-100-110-118-126 stitches in stockinette stitch (= front piece), place the next 53-63-71-75-77-77 stitches on 1 thread for sleeve, cast on 8-8-10-10-12-14 new stitches on the needle (= in side under sleeve) and work the remaining 41-46-50-55-59-63 stitches in stockinette stitch (= ½ back piece). Cut the strand. Body and sleeves are finished separately. THE PIECE IS NOW MEASURED FROM HERE! BODY: = 180-200-220-240-260-280 stitches. Start the round on the one side of the piece, in the middle of the 8-8-10-10-12-14 stitches under the sleeve. Work A.3 in the round (= 18-20-22-24-26-28 repeats of 10 stitches). Continue this pattern, but on the round marked with an arrow in A.3, displace the start of the round 2 stitches to the left in the same way as in A.2. When A.3 has been completed, work 1 round of stockinette stitch where you increase 10 stitches evenly spaced in all sizes = 190-210-230-250-270-290 stitches. Continue in the round with stockinette stitch and repeat the increase when the piece measures 14-14-14-14-16-16 cm = 5 1/2”-5 1/2”-5 1/2”-5 1/2”-6 1/4”-6 1/4” from the division = 200-220-240-260-280-300 stitches. Now work A.3 in the round again (= 20-22-24-26-28-30 repeats of 10 stitches). When A.3 has been completed work stockinette stitch until the piece measures 28 cm = 11” from the division in all sizes (or to desired length; there is approx. 4 cm = 1 1/2” to finished length). Knit 1 round where you increase 64-74-78-88-92-96 stitches evenly spaced = 264-294-318-348-372-396 stitches. This is done to avoid the rib being tight. Change to circular needle size 3 mm = US 2,5 and work rib in the round (= knit 3 / purl 3) for 4 cm = 1 1/2”. Change to circular needle size 4 mm = US 6 and loosely bind off with knit over knit and purl over purl. The sweater measures approx. 56-58-60-62-64-66 cm = 22"-22 3/4"-23 5/8"-24 3/8"-25 1/4"-26" from the shoulder down. SLEEVE: Place the 53-63-71-75-77-77 stitches from the thread on the one side of the piece on short circular needle or double pointed needles size 4 mm = US 6 and knit up 1 stitch in each of the 8-8-10-10-12-14 stitches cast on under sleeve = 61-71-81-85-89-91 stitches. Insert 1 marker thread in the middle of the 8-8-10-10-12-14 stitches under the sleeve. Allow the marker thread to follow your work onwards – it will be used when decreasing mid under sleeve. Start the round by the marker thread and work the first round as follows: Work 0-0-0-2-4-0 stitches in stockinette stitch, work A.4A (= 10 stitches), A.4B over the next 40-50-60-60-60-70 stitches (= 4-5-6-6-6-7 repeats of 10 stitches), A.4C (= 11 stitches) and finish with 0-0-0-2-4-0 stitches in stockinette stitch. Continue this pattern until A.4 has been worked 1 time in height, then work stockinette stitch in the round. AT THE SAME TIME when the piece measures 3-3-2-2-2-2 cm = 1 1/8”-1 1/8”-3/4”-3/4”-3/4”-3/4” from the division, decrease 2 stitches mid under sleeve – read DECREASE TIP. Decrease like this every 6-2½-1½-1½-1½-1 cm = 2 3/8”-1”-1/2”-1/2”-1/2”-3/8” a total of 5-9-13-13-14-14 times = 51-53-55-59-61-63 stitches (stitches which do not fit into A.4 when decreasing are worked in stockinette stitch). Work until the sleeve measures 29-27-26-24-23-21 cm = 11 3/8”-10 5/8”-10 1/4”-9 1/2”-9”-8 1/4” from the division (or to desired length; there is approx. 4 cm = 1 1/2” left to finished length. NOTE: Shorter measurements in larger sizes due to wider neck and longer yoke). Knit 1 round where you increase 3-1-5-1-5-3 stitches evenly spaced = 54-54-60-60-66-66 stitches. Change to double pointed needles size 3 mm = US 2,5 and work rib in the round (= knit 3 / purl 3) for 4 cm = 1 1/2”. Change back to double pointed needles size 4 mm = US 6. Loosely bind off with knit over knit and purl over purl. The sleeve measures approx. 33-31-30-28-27-25 cm = 13”-12 1/4”-11 3/4”-11”-10 5/8”-9 3/4” from the division. Work the other sleeve in the same DiagramAll measurements in charts are in cm.
