EXPLANATION FOR THE PATTERN
INCREASE TIP-1:
INCREASE 1 STITCH TOWARDS LEFT - from RIGHT SIDE:
Use left needle to pick up yarn between 2 stitches from row below, pick up yarn from the front and knit stitch in stitch loop behind the needle.
INCREASE 1 STITCH TOWARDS THE RIGHT - from RIGHT SIDE:
Use left needle to pick up yarn between 2 stitches from row below, pick up yarn from the back and knit stitch in stitch loop in front of needle.
INCREASE TIP-2:
INCREASE 1 STITCH TOWARDS THE LEFT - from WRONG SIDE:
Use left needle to pick up yarn between 2 stitches from row below, pick up yarn from the back and purl stitch in stitch loop in front of needle.
INCREASE 1 STITCH TOWARDS THE RIGHT - from WRONG SIDE:
Use left needle to pick up yarn between 2 stitches from row below, pick up yarn from the front and purl stitch in stitch loop behind the needle.
KNITTING TIP
When working short rows, there will be a small hole after each turn. This hole can be closed by tightening the strand or using the technique German Short Rows as follows:
Slip the first stitch purl-wise, take the strand over the right needle and tighten well from the back (2 loops on the needle). These loops are worked together on the next row.
DECREASE TIP
Decrease 1 stitch on each side of marker thread as follows:
Work until 3 stitches remain before marker thread, knit 2 together, knit 2 (marker thread is in the middle of these 2 stitches), slip 1 stitch knitwise, knit 1, pass slipped stitch over stitch worked (= 2 stitches decreased).
JUMPER - SHORT OVERVIEW OF THE PIECE
In this pattern needles of different length have been used, begin with fitting length for number of stitches and switch as needed.
First work piece back and forth on circular needle. Begin by casting on stitches in the back of neck. Then work back piece downwards while AT THE SAME TIME increasing in each side of piece until number of stitches for shoulder width is reached. Back piece has a slight diagonal shoulder. Then work down to armholes. Now put back piece a side and work the front piece. Front piece is first worked in 2 parts. Begin by picking up stitches along one shoulder from back piece, work and increase towards the neck. Repeat on the other shoulder.
Put right and left front piece together when increases for neck are done. Then work front piece down to armholes. Now slip front piece and back piece on to same circular needle and work body downwards in the round on circular needle. Pick up stitches for sleeves around the armholes and work sleeves downwards. First work back and forth with short rows to form a sleeve cap, then work sleeves downwards in the round on needle. Finish by picking up stitches around the neck and work a neck edge.
If 0 is given for the chosen size, it means that you skip the information until next information.
BACK PIECE
Work piece back and forth on circular needle. Cast on 30-30-30-38-38-38-38 stitches on circular needle size 4.5 mm with 1 strand DROPS Alpaca and 1 strand DROPS Brushed Alpaca Silk (= 2 strands).
ROW 1 (= wrong side): Purl all stitches.
ROW 2 (= right side): Read INCREASE TIP-1 and knit 3, increase 1 stitch towards the left, work A.1, A.2, A.3, increase 1 stitch towards the right, knit 3.
ROW 3 (= wrong side): Read INCREASE TIP-2 and purl 3, increase 1 stitch towards the left, work A.3, A.2, A.1, increase 1 stitch towards the right, purl 3.
AFTER 3RD ROW:
Work 2nd and 3rd ROW 13-13-13-11-11-11-11 times in total (= 26-26-26-22-22-22-22 rows worked), after last increase there are 82 stitches on needle in all sizes. A.1, A.2 and A.3 are now finished vertically.
The increases are done in XS and S (continue from ALL SIZES).
Continue increases in size M-L-XL-XXL-XXXL on every row as before inside 3 stitches in stocking stitch in each side, AT THE SAME TIME work pattern as follows: 3 stitches in stocking stitch, work A.4 4 times in total, work 3 stitches in stocking stitch. Work the new stitches in stocking stitch.
Increase 0-0-4-4-8-8-13 times in each side (= 0-0-4-4-8-8-13 rows worked), 26-26-30-26-30-30-35 increases have been done in total in each side = 82-82-90-90-98-98-108 stitches on needle. Continue to work from ALL SIZES.
ALL SIZES
Insert 1 marker at the edge in the side. Now measure piece from here! Now work pattern as follows: Work 3-3-7-7-11-11-16 stitches in stocking stitch, work A.4 4 times in total (continue on correct row in size M- L-XL-XXL-XXXL), work 3-3-7-7-11-11-16 stitches in stocking stitch. Remember to follow the knitting tension!
When piece measures 11-12-11-12-10-11-7 cm from marker, begin increase for armholes. Note which row is next row in pattern. It is important that the increases for armholes on front piece begin on the same row so that the pattern continue from the same row when the patterns are put together.
INCREASE FOR ARMHOLES
ROW 1 (= right side): Read INCREASE TIP-1 and knit 3, increase 1 stitch towards the left, work 0-0-4-4-8-8-13 stitches in stocking stitch, work A.4 4 times in total, work 0-0-4-4-8-8-13 stitches in stocking stitch, increase 1 stitch towards the right, knit 3.

ROW 2 (= wrong side): Purl all stitches.
Work 1st and 2nd ROW 5 times in total (= 10 rows worked) = 30-30-34-30-34-34-39 stitches (next row is worked from right side).
Cut the yarn, slip stitches on a thread or stitch holder, now work right front piece along the shoulder – read explanation below.
RIGHT FRONT PIECE
Now pick up stitches along left diagonal shoulder on back piece - begin from right side at the shoulder and pick up stitches out towards the neck as follows:
Begin 1 stitch in from outermost worked row, pick up 1 stitch in every worked row inside outermost stitch = 25-25-29-25-29-29-34 stitches.
All length measurements on front piece are done from pick up edge.
Work as follows from wrong side: Work A.6, purl 3-3-7-7-11-11-16.

ROW 1 (= right side): Knit 3-3-7-7-11-11-16, work A.6 until 3 stitches remain, increase towards the right, knit 3 (= the last 3 stitches in A.6) - remember INCREASE TIP-1.
ROW 2 (= wrong side): Purl all stitches.
Work 1st and 2nd ROW 5 times in total (= 10 rows worked) = 30-30-34-30-34-34-39 stitches (next row is worked from right side).
Then place the front pieces together as explained below.
FRONT PIECE (right and left part together):

Continue until piece measures 56-58-60-62-64-66-68 cm from cast-on edge mid back. Knit 1 round and purl 1 round before loosely casting off by knitting.
SLEEVES
Sleeve is worked from the armhole and down.
Place piece flat and insert 1 marker at the top of armhole = mid on top shoulder – NOTE: Mid on top shoulder is not the same place as stitches were picked up for front piece but a few cm down on front piece.
Use circular needle size 5 mm and tightly pick up stitches (use a thinner needle if needed).
PICK UP STITCHES AS FOLLOWS
Begin in the middle of the new stitches cast on under sleeve - pick up 71-75-85-89-99-101-107 stitches – adjust to pick up same number of stitches on each side of marker.
SLEEVE CAP
Work pattern as follows: Work 26-28-33-35-40-41-44 stitches in stocking stitch, A.7, 26-28-33-35-40-41-44 stitches in stocking stitch. First work stocking stitch and pattern back and forth with short rows over sleeve cap to get a better shape on sleeve, begin round mid under sleeve and work as follows:
ROW 1 (= right side): Work 4 stitches past A.7 on top of shoulder, turn piece – read KNITTING TIP.
ROW 2 (= wrong side): Work 4 stitches past A.7, turn piece.
ROW 3 (= right side): Work 3-3-3-3-2-2-2 stitches past previous turn, turn piece.
ROW 4 (= wrong side): Work 3-3-3-3-2-2-2 stitches past previous turn, turn piece.

AFTER LAST TURN
The last time 4th row is worked finish row by turning piece, then work from right side until beginning of round (mid under sleeve).
Insert 1 marker thread mid under sleeve, this is used when decreasing stitches under sleeve. Move marker thread upwards when working.
THE SLEEVE ONWARDS
Now work in the round in stocking stitch and A.7 while AT THE SAME TIME decreasing under sleeve, read DECREASE TIP and decrease like this:
When 1 round has been worked, decrease 2 stitches 2-2-3-3-4-4-4 times on every other round, then decrease 2 stitches 8-9-12-13-16-16-18 times every 3½-3-3-3-2-2-1½ cm = 51-53-55-57-59-61-63 stitches on row.
Work until sleeve measures 47-49-48-48-47-48-46 cm from mid on top shoulder.
Switch to double pointed needles size 3.5 mm and work rib (= knit 1/purl 1) while AT THE SAME TIME increasing 9-11-9-11-9-11-13 stitches evenly on 1st round = 60-64-64-68-68-72-76 stitches.
When rib measures 3-3-3-4-4-4-4 cm, work 3 rounds in stocking stitch with double pointed needles size 5 mm before casting off somewhat loosely by knitting (= rolling edge).
Sleeve measures approx. 50-52-51-52-51-52-50 cm from mid on top of shoulder.
NECK EDGE
Use circular needle size 3.5 mm. Begin from right side at one shoulder line and pick up approx. 88 to 108 stitches inside 1 stitch - number of stitches must be divisible by 2. Work rib in the round = knit 1/purl 1 for 2 cm. Switch to circular needle size 5 mm. Work 3 rounds in stocking stitch and loosely cast off by knitting (= rolling edge).
