EXPLANATIONS FOR THE PATTERN
INCREASE TIP-1 (from right side):
INCREASE 1 STITCH TOWARDS RIGHT BEFORE MARKER:
Use the left needle to pick up the strand between 2 stitches from the row below, pick up the strand from the back and knit through the stitch loop that is on the front of the needle.
INCREASE 1 STITCH TOWARDS LEFT AFTER MARKER:
Use the left needle to pick up the strand between 2 stitches from the row below, pick up the strand from the front and knit through the stitch loop that is on the back of the needle.
INCREASE TIP-2 (from wrong side):
INCREASE 1 STITCH TOWARDS LEFT BEFORE MARKER:
Use the left needle to pick up the strand between 2 stitches from the row below, pick up the strand from the front and purl through the stitch loop that is on the back of the needle.
INCREASE 1 STITCH TOWARDS RIGHT AFTER MARKER:
Use the left needle to pick up the strand between 2 stitches from the row below, pick up the strand from the back and purl through the stitch loop that is on the front of the needle.
SLEEVE TIP
When knitting up stitches under the sleeve, you can get a small hole in the transition between stitches on the body and sleeve. This hole can be closed by picking up the strand between 2 stitches and working this strand twisted together with the first stitch between body and sleeve.
DECREASE TIP
Decrease 1 stitch on each side of the marker-thread as follows:
Work until there are 3 stitches left before the marker-thread, knit 2 together, knit 2 (marker-thread sits between these 2 stitches), slip 1 stitch knit-wise, knit 1 and pass the slipped stitch over the knitted stitch (2 stitches decreased).
JUMPER – SHORT OVERVIEW OF THE PIECE
The pattern uses both long and short needles; start with the length which fits the number of stitches and change when necessary.
The yoke is begun back and forth to create the neckline, then finished in the round before being divided for the body and sleeves. The body is continued in the round, while the sleeves wait. The sleeves are worked top down in the round.
Stitches are knitted up around the neckline and the neck is worked in the round to finish.
YOKE
Cast on 66-68-70-70-72-72-74 stitches with circular needle size 5 mm and DROPS Air.
Purl 1 row from the wrong side.
Insert 4 markers without working the stitches, as follows. These markers are used when increasing for the saddle shoulders, sleeves and yoke.
Marker-1: Count 2 stitches (= front piece), insert marker-1 before the next stitch.
Marker-2: Count 18 stitches from marker-1, insert marker-2 before the next stitch (= sleeve).
Marker-3: Count 26-28-30-30-32-32-34 stitches from marker-2 (= back piece), insert marker-3 before the next stitch.
Marker-4: Count 18 stitches from marker-3, insert marker-4 before the next stitch (= sleeve).
There are 2 stitches left after marker-4 (= front piece).
Now work stocking stitch back and forth, increasing for the shoulders and casting on for the front neckline as follows. Only increase on the front and back pieces, the stitch count on the sleeves remains the same:
ROW 1 (right side) – read INCREASE TIP-1:
* Knit to the first/next marker, increase 1 stitch towards the right, move the marker onto the right needle, knit 18 stitches (= sleeve), move the marker onto the right needle, increase 1 stitch towards the left , work from - 1 more time, knit to end of row, cast on 2 stitches = 72-74-76-76-78-78-80 stitches.
ROW 2 (wrong side) – read INCREASE TIP-2:
* Purl to the first/next marker, increase 1 stitch towards the left, move the marker onto the right needle, purl 18 stitches (= sleeve), move the marker onto the right needle, increase 1 stitch towards the right , work from - 1 more time, purl to end of row, cast on 2 stitches = 78-80-82-82-84-84-86 stitches.
ROW 3 (right side):

* Knit to the first/next marker, increase 1 stitch towards the right, move the marker onto the right needle, knit 18 stitches (= sleeve), move the marker onto the right needle, increase 1 stitch towards the left , work from - 1 more time, knit to end of row, cast on 3 stitches = 97-99-101-101-103-103-105 stitches.
ROW 6 (wrong side):
* Purl to the first/next marker, increase 1 stitch towards the left, move the marker onto the right needle, purl 18 stitches (= sleeve), move the marker onto the right needle, increase 1 stitch towards the right , work from - 1 more time, purl to end of row, cast on 3 stitches = 104-106-108-108-110-110-112 stitches.

There are 18 stitches on each sleeve and 40-42-44-44-46-46-48 stitches on the front and back pieces. You have increased a total of 7 times for the saddle shoulders.
Continue in the round, increasing for the shoulders as follows. The round starts on the left side of the front piece, after the neckline.
INCREASE FOR SADDLE SHOULDERS
Work stocking stitch in the round. Remember INCREASE TIP – 1 and continue increasing on the front and back pieces, the stitch count on the sleeves remains the same (4 increased stitches) as follows:
ROUND 1:
* Knit to the first/next marker, increase 1 stitch towards the right, move the marker onto the right needle, knit 18 stitches (= sleeve), move the marker onto the right needle, increase 1 stitch towards the left , work from -* 1 more time, knit to end of round (4 increased stitches).
Work this round 11 times (a total of 18 increases in height for the shoulders) = 160-164-168-168-172-172-176 stitches. Remember to maintain the knitting tension.
There are 18 stitches on each sleeve and 62-64-66-66-68-68-70 stitches on the front and back pieces. Now increase for the sleeves.
INCREASE FOR SLEEVES
Increase only on the sleeves, the stitch count on the front and back pieces remains the same. Work and increase 4 stitches every 2nd round as follows - remember INCREASE TIP-1:
ROUND 1:
* Knit to the first/next marker, move the marker onto the right needle, increase 1 stitch towards the left, knit to the next marker, increase 1 stitch towards the right, move the marker onto the right needle, , work from -* 1 more time, knit to end of round (= 4 increased stitches).
ROUND 2:
Knit.
Work ROUNDS 1 and 2 a total of 10-10-10-10-8-5-3 times (20-20-20-20-16-10-6 rounds worked) = 200-204-208-208-204-192-188 stitches.
There are 38-38-38-38-34-28-24 stitches on each sleeve and 62-64-66-66-68-68-70 stitches on the front and back pieces. Now increase for both the yoke and the sleeves as follows.
INCREASE FOR YOKE
Work stocking stitch and increase 8 stitches every 2nd round, increasing before and after each marker as follows:
ROUND 1:
* Work until there is 1 stitch left before the first marker, increase 1 stitch towards the right, knit 1, move the marker onto the right needle, increase 1 stitch towards the left, knit to the next marker, increase 1 stitch towards the right, move the marker onto the right needle, knit 1, increase 1 stitch towards the left, work from -* 1 more time, knit to end of round (8 increased stitches).
ROUND 2:
Knit.
Work ROUNDS 1 and 2 a total of 6-8-10-12-15-20-23 times (12-16-20-24-30-40-46 rounds worked) = 248-268-288-304-324-352-372 stitches.
There are 50-54-58-62-64-68-70 stitches on each sleeve and 74-80-86-90-98-108-116 stitches on the front and back pieces.
The piece measures approx. 20-21-23-25-26-28-29 cm from outermost on the shoulder (= 5 cm shoulder-depth and 15-16-18-20-21-23-24 cm sleeve-increases). Now divide for the body and sleeves.
DIVIDE FOR BODY AND SLEEVES
Knit as far as the sleeve stitches, place the 50-54-58-62-64-68-70 sleeve-stitches on a stitch holder, cast on 4-6-6-8-10-10-12 stitches (mid-under the sleeve), knit 74-80-86-90-98-108-116 stitches for back piece, place the 50-54-58-62-64-68-70 sleeve-stitches on a stitch holder, cast on 4-6-6-8-10-10-12 stitches (mid-under the sleeve), knit the last 74-80-86-90-98-108-116 stitches. The body and sleeves are finished separately.
BODY
= 156-172-184-196-216-236-256 stitches.
Continue stocking stitch in the round until the piece measures 46-48-50-52-53-55-57 cm from the cast-on edge mid-back.
Change to circular needle size 3.5 mm. Work rib (knit 1, purl 1), AT THE SAME TIME increase 28-28-30-34-34-38-42 stitches evenly on round 1 = 184-200-236-230-250-274-298 stitches.
When the rib measures 4-4-4-4-5-5-5 cm, cast off.
The jumper measures approx. 50-52-54-56-58-60-62 cm from the cast-on edge mid-back.
SLEEVES
Place the 50-54-58-62-64-68-70 sleeve-stitches from one stitch holder onto circular needle size 5 mm and knit up 1 stitch in each of the 4-6-6-8-10-10-12 stitches cast on under the sleeve – read SLEEVE TIP = 54-60-64-70-74-78-82 stitches. Insert a marker-thread in the middle of the 4-6-6-8-10-10-12 stitches under the sleeve. The round starts by the marker-thread.
Work stocking stitch in the round.
AT THE SAME TIME, when the sleeve measures 1 cm from the division, decrease mid-under the sleeve – read DECREASE TIP as follows: Decrease 2 stitches 2 times every 2nd round, then decrease 2 stitches every 4-4-4-3½-3-3-2 cm, 1-3-4-6-7-8-9 times = 48-50-52-54-56-58-60 stitches.
Continue working until the sleeve measures 35-35-34-33-31-30-30 cm from the division.
Change to double pointed needles size 3.5 mm. Work rib (knit 1, purl 1), AT THE SAME TIME increase 4-6-6-6-6-6-6 stitches evenly on the first round = 52-56-58-60-62-64-66 stitches.
When the rib measures 4-4-4-4-5-5-5 cm, cast off with rib. The sleeve measures approx. 39-39-38-37-36-35-35 cm from the division.
NECK
Use circular needle size 3.5 mm. Start from the right side, mid-front and knit up 100 to 120 stitches around the neckline: stitch count must be divisible by 2.
Work rib in the round (knit 1, purl 1) for 2-2-2-2-2½-2½-2½ cm. Knit 3 rounds (= rolled edge). Cast off with needle size 5 mm.
