KNITTING TIP
When working short row there will be a small hole when turning the piece - the hole can be closed by tightening the yarn or using the technique German Short Rows as follows:
Slip first stitch purlwise. Place strand over right needle and tighten well at the back (should lead to two loops on needle). Work these loops together on next row.
INCREASE TIP
INCREASE 1 STITCH TOWARDS THE 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.
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 between 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. Begin by casting on stitches at the top of front piece. Then work front piece downwards while AT THE SAME TIME working short rows to form a slightly diagonal shoulder. Then work down to armholes. Now put front piece aside and work the back piece. Begin by picking up stitches along one should from front piece, cast on stitches for neck and then pick up stitches along the other shoulder from front piece. Work back piece downwards while AT THE SAME TIME working short rows to form a slightly diagonal shoulder. Work down to armholes - work back piece somewhat longer than front piece.
Now slip back piece and front 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.
FRONT PIECE
Work piece back and forth on circular needle. Cast on 69-73-79-83-91-97-103 stitches on circular needle size 4 mm with DROPS Melody.
Insert 1 marker in the side. Now measure piece from here! Work as follows:
ROW 1 (= wrong side): Purl 14-15-17-18-22-24-26, work rib (knit 1, purl 1 twisted) over the next 40-42-44-46-46-48-50 stitches, knit 1 and purl 14-15-17-18-22-24-26.
ROW 2 (= right side): Knit 14-15-17-18-22-24-26, work rib (purl 1, knit 1 twisted) over the next 40-42-44-46-46-48-50 stitches, purl 1 and knit 14-15-17-18-22-24-26.
ROW 3 (= wrong side): Purl 14-15-17-18-22-24-26, work rib (knit 1, purl 1 twisted) over the next 40-42-44-46-46-48-50 stitches, knit 1 and purl 14-15-17-18-22-24-26. The neck edge is now done.

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 back piece but a few cm down on back piece.
Use circular needle size 5.5 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 62-64-68-72-76-78-80 stitches – adjust to pick up same number of stitches on each side of marker.
SLEEVE CAP
To get a better shape work stocking stitch with short rows back and forth over sleeve cap, begin round mid under sleeve as and work follows:
ROW 1 (= right side): Work 7-7-8-8-8-8-9 stitches past marker on top of shoulder, turn piece – remember KNITTING TIP.
ROW 2 (= wrong side): Work 7-7-8-8-8-8-9 stitches past marker, turn piece.
ROW 3 (= right side): Work 6-5-5-5-5-5-4 stitches past where the previous turn was, turn piece.
ROW 4 (= wrong side): Work 6-5-5-5-5-5-4 stitches past where the previous turn was, turn piece.
Repeat ROWS 3 and 4.
Work until 8-10-10-10-10-12-14 turns have been done in total (= 4-5-5-5-5-6-7 times in each side and last row is worked from wrong side).
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, marker thread is used when decreasing stitches under sleeve. Move marker thread upwards when working.
Now work in the round in stocking stitch over all stitches while AT THE SAME TIME decreasing under sleeve, read DECREASE TIP and decrease like this:
When 1 round has been worked, decrease 2 stitches 2-2-2-3-3-3-3 times on every other round, then decrease 2 stitches 3 times every 2 cm = 52-54-58-60-64-66-68 stitches on needle.
Work until sleeve measures 46-46-46-46-43-42-41 cm from mid on top shoulder.
Switch to double pointed needles size 4 mm and work rib (= knit 1 twisted/purl 1) while AT THE SAME TIME increasing 8 stitches evenly on 1st round = 60-62-66-68-72-74-76 stitches.
When rib measures 2-2-2-2-3-3-3 cm, cast off with twisted knit over twisted knit and purl over purl.
Sleeve measures approx. 48-48-48-48-46-45-44 cm from mid on top of shoulder.
