A set of 3mm double-pointed knitting needles and a 3mm, 40cm circular knitting needle or size needed to get 24 sts x 32 rows in stocking st = 10 x 10 cm. FOR RIB: a 2.5mm 40cm circular knitting needle or size needed to get 26 sts x 34 rows in stocking st = 10 x 10 cm. INSTRUCTIONS: HAT PATTERN: See diagram A.2. Work entire pattern in stocking st. HAT: Worked in the round on a short circular needle from bottom up. Switch to double pointed needles when needed. Cast on sts on circular needle size 2.5 mm with light beige. K 1 round. Then work rib in the round = K 2/P 2 for 3 cm. Switch to a short circular needle size 3 mm and work 1-4 rounds in stocking st while AT THE SAME TIME dec 0-2 sts evenly = sts. Then work pattern according to diagram A.2 (= repetitions of 10 sts). REMEMBER THE KNITTING TENSION When A.2 has been worked, piece measures approx cm vertically and there are sts on needle. Continue with dark rose and K 1 round while K all sts tog 2 by 2. K 1 round. On next round K all sts tog 2 by 2 again = sts on needle. Cut the yarn and pull it through the remaining sts, tighten tog and fasten.

3 /blog JUMPER: JUMPER: SIZE: S - M - L - XL - XXL - XXXL MATERIALS: Drops Alpaca: g colour no 618, light beige 50 g colour no 2923, goldenrod 50 g colour no 2925, rust 50 g colour no 3650, maroon 50 g colour no 3770, dark rose 50 g colour no 6309, medium petrol 50 g colour no 7233, olive 50 g colour no 9020, light pearl grey 50 g colour no 9022, coral A set of 3mm double-pointed knitting needles A 3mm circular knitting needle in the following lengths: 40cm (for all sizes) and 60cm (for sizes S, M and L) or 80cm (for sized XL, XXL, XXXL) or size needed to get 24 sts x 32 rows in stocking st = 10 x 10 cm. FOR THE RIB: A set of 2.5mm double-pointed knitting needles A 2.5mm circular knitting needle in the following lengths: 40cm (for all sizes) and 80cm (for all sizes) or size needed to get 26 sts x 34 rows in stocking st = 10 x 10 cm. PATTERN INFORMATION: JUMPER DECREASE/INCREASE TIP: To calculate how often dec/inc should be done, use the total no of sts on row (e.g. 120 sts) and divide by no of dec/inc to be done (e.g. 25) = 4.8. I.e. in this example, K approx. every 4th and 5th st tog when dec. If inc, do this is approx. every 5th st. PATTERN: See diagram A.1 (choose diagram for correct size). Work entire pattern in stocking st. KNITTING TIP: To avoid the knitting tension to tighten when working pattern, it is important not to tighten the strands on back side of piece. Switch to a higher needle no when working pattern if the pattern is somewhat tight. DECREASE TIP-1 (applies to sides on body and mid under sleeve): Beg 4 sts before marker and K 2 tog, K 4 (marker is between these 4 sts), slip 1 st as if to K, K 1, psso (= 2 sts dec). INCREASE TIP-1 (applies to sides of body): Work until 2 sts remain before marker: Make 1 YO, K 4 (marker is in the middle of these 4 sts), make 1 YO (= 2 sts inc). On next round K YOs twisted to avoid holes. INSTRUCTIONS: JUMPER Worked in the round on circular needle from top down. YOKE: Cast on sts on a short circular needle size 2.5 mm with dark rose. K 1 round. Then work rib in the round = K 2/P 2. When rib measures 3 cm, K 1 round while at the same time dec sts evenly - READ DECREASE/INCREASE TIP = sts. Switch to circular needle size 3 mm. For better shape, work an elevation in the back of neck as follows: Insert 1 marker mid back. Beg from RS with dark rose and K sts past marker, turn, tighten yarn and P sts back. Turn, tighten yarn and K sts, turn, tighten yarn and P sts back. Turn, tighten yarn and K sts, turn, tighten yarn and P sts back. Turn, tighten yarn and K sts, turn, tighten yarn and P sts back. Turn and K until mid back. Now work pattern in the round according to diagram A.1 (= repetitions of 5 sts - choose diagram for correct size). Continue pattern and inc as shown in diagram. REMEMBER THE KNITTING TENSION On round marked with arrow in diagram inc sts evenly (inc in the sections with light beige). When diagram A.1 has been worked, there are sts on needle and piece measures approx cm (measured mid front without rib in neck). Work next round as follows: K with light beige over the first sts (= ½ back piece), slip the next sts on a stitch holder (= sleeve), cast on new sts (= in the side under sleeve), K over the next sts (= front piece), slip the next sts on a stitch holder (= sleeve), cast on sts (= in the side under sleeve), K over the remaining sts (= ½ back piece). Finish body and sleeves separately.

4 /blog INSTRUCTIONS: JUMPER CONTINUED BODY: = sts. Insert 1 marker in each side = sts between markers. NOW MEASURE PIECE FROM HERE! Continue in the round with light beige and stocking st. When piece measures cm, dec 1 st on each side of both markers READ DECREASE TIP-1 (= 4 sts dec). Dec like this every 2½-2½-2½ cm a total of times in each side = sts. When piece measures cm, inc 1 st on each side of both markers READ INCREASE TIP-1 (= 4 sts inc). Inc like this every cm a total of times in each side = sts. Continue until piece measures cm (jumper measures cm from shoulder). K 1 round while inc sts evenly - READ DECREASE/ INCREASE TIP = sts. Switch to circular needle size 2.5 mm and work rib = K 2/P 2. When rib measures 6 cm (jumper measures approx cm from shoulder) inc 1 st in every transition between K 2 and P 2 by making 1 YO (= sts inc) = sts on needle (this inc is done to avoid a tight cast-off edge). On next round cast off with K over K and P over P (work YOs twisted before casting them off as regular sts). SLEEVE: Worked in the round on a short circular needle from top down. Switch to double pointed needles when needed. Slip the sts from stitch holder in one side of piece on a short circular needle size 3 mm and pick in addition up 1 st in each of the sts cast on under sleeve = sts. Insert 1 marker in the middle of the sts under sleeve (= beg of round). NOW MEASURE PIECE FROM HERE! Work in stocking st in the round with light beige. When sleeve measures cm, dec 2 sts mid under sleeve - READ DECREASE TIP-1. Dec like this every 3-2½-1½-1½-1½-1 cm times in total = sts. When piece measures cm, K 1 round while inc sts evenly = sts. Switch to double pointed needles size 2.5 mm and work rib in the round = K 2/P 2. When rib measures 8 cm (or desired length) inc 1 st in every transition between K 2 and P 2 by making 1 YO (= sts inc) = sts. On next round, cast off with K over K and P over P (work YOs twisted before casting them off as regular sts). Now sleeve measures approx cm. Work the other sleeve the same way.
