EXPLANATIONS FOR THE PATTERN
GARTER STITCH (worked back and forth):
Knit all rows.
1 ridge = knit 2 rows.
RAGLAN
Increase 1 stitch before/after 2 stitches in each transition between the body and sleeves; the marker-thread sits between these 2 stitches. Increase 1 stitch by making 1 yarn over which is worked twisted on the next row/round to avoid a hole. The new stitches are then worked in stocking stitch.
BUTTONHOLES
Work buttonholes on the right band (when the garment is worn). Work from the right side when there are 4 stitches left on the row as follows: Make 1 yarn over, knit 2 together and knit 2. On the next row (wrong side), knit the yarn over to leave a hole.
The first buttonhole is worked 1 cm after the last increase for the V-neck, then the other 3 buttonholes with approx. 7-8-8½-7½-8-9 cm between each one.
DECREASE TIP (for sleeves):
Start 3 stitches 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).
JACKET – SHORT OVERVIEW OF THE PIECE
Piece is worked back and forth, top down.
Start by working 2 loose bands in garter stitch. Stitches are cast on between the 2 bands for the shoulders and back neck and the yoke continued back and forth with circular needle from mid-front. Stitches are increased for raglan and the V-neck. The yoke is divided for the body and sleeves and the body continued back and forth with circular needle. The sleeves are worked in the round with short circular needle/double pointed needles.
RIGHT BAND (when the garment is worn):
Cast on 7 stitches with circular needle size 5 mm and DROPS Air.
Work GARTER STITCH – read description above, until the band measures 17-17-17-19-19-19 cm, finishing after a row from the wrong side. Lay the piece to one side.
LEFT BAND
Cast on 7 stitches with circular needle size 5 mm and DROPS Air.
Work garter stitch until the band measures 17-17-17-19-19-19 cm, finishing after a row from the right side. Do not cut the strand.
Cast on 68-68-68-74-74-74 stitches at the end of this row, then knit the right band stitches = 82-82-82-88-88-88 stitches. Work 1 row with garter stitch over each band and purling the cast-on stitches.
Insert 4 marker-threads (used when increasing for RAGLAN – read explanation above), without working the stitches and inserting them between 2 stitches as follows:
Count 9 stitches, insert marker-thread 1, count 20 stitches, insert marker-thread 2, count 24-24-24-30-30-30 stitches, insert marker-thread 3, count 20 stitches, insert marker-thread 4, there are 9 stitches left on the row.
YOKE
REMEMBER THE KNITTING TENSION!
Continue back and forth with stocking stitch and garter stitch over each band. At the same time increase for the V-neck and raglan as described below. Read the next 2 sections before continuing. Start mid-front, from the right side.
V-NECK
Increase for the neck inside the bands every 4th row 11-11-11-14-14-14 times by making 1 yarn over, which is worked twisted on the next row to avoid a hole.
1 cm after the last increase for the neck begin working the BUTTONHOLES – read description above.
RAGLAN
Increase on each side of 2 stocking stitches in each transition between the front/back pieces and the sleeves every 2nd row (each row from the right side = 8 increased stitches) 6 times – read description above. Continue to increase for raglan every 2nd round but every 2nd increase is only on the front/back pieces (4 increased stitches), i.e., increase on the front/back pieces every 2nd row (each row from the right side) and on the sleeves every 4th row (every 2nd row from the right side). Increase like this 18-22-26-26-30-30 times on the body (9-11-13-13-15-15 times on the sleeves).
SIZES S, M, XL, XXL and XXXL (the increases in size L are finished):
Continue with stocking stitch and increase for raglan but now only increase on the body every 2nd row (the sleeve increases are finished) 2-1-1-1-5 times.
ALL SIZES
You have increased a total of 26-29-32-32-37-41 times on the body and 15-17-19-19-21-21 times on the sleeves.
After the last increase there are 268-288-308-324-348-364 stitches. Continue with stocking stitch and the bands in garter stitch until the yoke measures 24-26-29-29-33-36 cm, measured mid-back.
Divide for the body and sleeves as follows:
Work the first 46-49-52-56-60-64 stitches (front piece), place the next 50-54-58-58-62-62 stitches on a thread for the sleeve, cast on 10-10-10-12-14-16 stitches (in side under sleeve), work 76-82-88-96-104-112 stitches (back piece), place the next 50-54-58-58-62-62 stitches on a thread for the sleeve, cast on 10-10-10-12-14-16 stitches (in side under sleeve), work the last 46-49-52-56-60-64 stitches (front piece).
BODY
= 188-200-212-232-252-272 stitches. Continue with stocking stitch and the bands in garter stitch for a further 18-18-17-19-17-16 cm. Knit 1 row from the right side and increase 19-21-21-23-25-27 stitches evenly spaced (do not increase over the bands) = 207-221-233-255-277-299 stitches.
Change to circular needle size 4 mm and work as follows from the wrong side: 7 band stitches in garter stitch, * purl 1, knit 1 , work from -* until there are 8 stitches left, purl 1 and 7 band stitches in garter stitch. Continue this rib for 6 cm. Cast off. The jacket measures approx. 54-56-58-60-62-64 cm from the shoulder.
SLEEVES
Place the 50-54-58-58-62-62 stitches from the thread on the one side of the piece on short circular needle/double pointed needles size 5 mm and knit up 1 stitch in each of the 10-10-10-12-14-16 stitches cast on under the sleeve = 60-64-68-70-76-78 stitches. Insert a marker-thread in the middle of the new stitches under the sleeve.
Work stocking stitch in the round.
When the sleeve measures 4 cm, decrease 2 stitches under the sleeve – read DECREASE TIP. Decrease like this every 5-3½-2½-2½-2-1½ cm a total of 6-8-9-10-11-11 times = 48-48-50-50-54-56 stitches. Continue working until the sleeve measures 36-35-33-32-29-27 cm from the division. Knit 1 round and increase 8-8-10-10-10-12 stitches evenly spaced = 56-56-60-60-64-68 stitches. Change to double pointed needles size 4 mm and work rib (knit 1, purl 1) for 6 cm. Cast off. The sleeve measures approx. 42-41-39-38-35-33 cm from the division.
Work the other sleeve in the same way.
ASSEMBLY
