EXPLANATIONS FOR THE PATTERN:

-------------------------------------------------------

PATTERN:
See diagrams A.1 to A.5. Choose diagram for your size (applies to A.2).

2-COLOURED LEAF PATTERN IN ENGLISH RIB (in the round):

The leaf pattern is worked in English rib as shown in diagrams A.3 and A.4. The other stitches
are worked in reversed stocking stitch; i.e. the stitches are purled as shown in diagram A.2.
To get the 2-coloured e ect, work stripes with alternately 1 round o -white and 1 round old
pink. A.2 to A.4 start with a round of o -white as described in the text. Each time you either
increase or decrease in A.3 and A.4, this will be on a round of old pink.

KNITTING TIP:
All stitch-numbers given when working English rib do not include the yarn overs; they belong
to the knitted stitches and are therefore counted with them as 1 stitch.

INCREASE TIP (for sides of body):

Start 3 stitches before the marker thread in the side, make 1 yarn over, knit 6 (marker thread
sits in the middle of these 6 stitches), 1 yarn over (= 2 stitches increased at marker thread
and a total of 4 stitches increased on round). On the next round knit the yarn overs twisted
to avoid holes. Then work the new stitches in stocking stitch.

DECREASE TIP (for mid under sleeves):

Start 3 stitches before the marker thread, knit 2 together, knit 2 (marker thread sits between
these 2 stitches), slip 1 stitch as if to knit, knit 1 and pass the slipped stitch over the knitted
stitch (= 2 stitches decreased).

START THE PIECE HERE:

-------------------------------------------------------

JUMPER - SHORT OVERVIEW OF THE PIECE:

Neck and yoke are worked in the round with circular needle from mid back, top down. The
yoke is worked with stripes and 2-coloured leaf pattern in English rib. The yoke is divided for
body and sleeves. The body is continued in the round with circular needle, top down. The
sleeves are worked in the round with short circular needle/double pointed needles, top
down.

NECK:
Cast on 110-110-120-120-130-130 stitches with short circular needle size 3 mm and old pink.
Knit 1 round. Then work A.1 in the round (= 11-11-12-12-13-13 repeats of 10 stitches).
Continue this pattern until the piece measures approx. 2-2-2-3-3-3 cm from the cast-on edge
mid front, but nish after a round of knitted stitches worked in the stitches from the
previous round. Continue with yoke as described below.

YOKE:
Read KNITTING TIP and REMEMBER THE KNITTING TENSION!
Change to circular needle size 4 mm. Read description for 2-COLOURED LEAF PATTERN IN
ENGLISH RIB (i.e. the whole yoke is worked in stripes as described above at the same time as
you work leaf-pattern in English rib as shown in A.3 and A.4).
The rst round is worked with o -white as follows: * Work A.2 (= 4 stitches), A.3 (= 1 stitch),
A.2 (= 4 stitches), A.4 (= 1 stitch) *, work from *-* a total of 11-11-12-12-13-13 times.
Continue this pattern. When A.3 has been worked 1 time vertically, continue purling this
stitch. On the last round in diagrams A.2 to A.4 increase 16-4-4-12-6-4 stitches evenly spaced
(increase in the purl-sections) = 280-312-340-372-396-420 stitches.
When A.2 to A.4 have been completed, the piece measures approx. 27-27-27-28-28-28 cm
from the cast-on edge mid front. Continue the stripes without leaf pattern until the piece
measures 27-27-27-28-30-32 cm from the cast-on edge mid front. The next round is worked
as follows (with the next colour in the stripes): Purl 42-46-50-55-60-65 stitches (= ½ back
piece), place the next 56-64-70-76-78-80 stitches on 1 thread for sleeve, cast on 8-8-10-10-12-
14 new stitches on needle (= in side under sleeve), purl 84-92-100-110-120-130 stitches (=
front piece), place the next 56-64-70-76-78-80 stitches on 1 thread for sleeve, cast on 8-8-10-
10-12-14 new stitches on needle (= in side under sleeve) and purl the remaining 42-46-50-55-
60-65 stitches (= ½ back piece). Cut the strand.
Body and sleeves are nished separately. THE PIECE IS NOW MEASURED FROM HERE!

BODY:
= 184-200-220-240-264-288 stitches. Insert 1 marker thread in each side, in the middle of the
8-8-10-10-12-14 stitches cast on under the sleeves. Allow the marker threads to follow your
work onwards – they will be used when increasing in the sides.
Start the round by one of the marker threads and continue with stripes in purl with
alternately 1 round o -white and 1 round old pink.
When the piece measures 2 cm from the division, stop working stripes. Continue with
stocking stitch in the round (i.e. knit all rounds) and o -white.
When the piece measures 3-3-4-4-4-4 cm from the division, increase 1 stitch on each side of
both marker threads – read INCREASE TIP (= 4 stitches increased). Increase like this every 5-
5-6-6-6-6 cm a total of 4 times in all sizes = 200-216-236-256-280-304 stitches. When the
piece measures 21-23-25-26-26-26 cm from the division, knit 1 round where you increase 4-
6-4-2-2-2 stitches evenly spaced = 204-222-240-258-282-306 stitches.
Change to circular needle size 3 mm. Work A.5 in the round for approx. 4 cm. Loosely cast
o with knit. The jumper measures approx. 52-54-56-58-60-62 cm from the shoulder down.

SLEEVE:
Place the 56-64-70-76-78-80 stitches from the thread on the one side of the piece on short
circular needle/double pointed needles size 4 mm and knit up 1 stitch in each of the 8-8-10-
10-12-14 stitches cast on under the sleeve = 64-72-80-86-90-94 stitches.
Insert 1 marker thread in the middle of the 8-8-10-10-12-14 stitches under the sleeve. Allow
the marker thread to follow your work onwards - it will be used when decreasing mid under
sleeve.
Start the round by the marker thread and continue with purl and stripes, with alternately 1
round o -white and 1 round old pink – adjust to match the yoke.
When the piece measures 2 cm from the division, stop working stripes. Continue with
stocking stitch in the round (i.e. knit all rounds) with o white.
When the piece measures 3-4-4-2-4-3 cm from the division, decrease 2 stitches mid under
sleeve – read DECREASE TIP. Decrease like this every 3½-2½-2-2-1½-1½ cm a total of 10-13-
16-18-19-20 times = 44-46-48-50-52-54 stitches. Continue working until the sleeve measures
38-38-38-37-35-34 cm from the division (or to desired length; there is approx. 4 cm left to
nished length. NOTE: Shorter measurements in larger sizes due to wider neck and longer
yoke).
Knit 1 round where you decrease 2-1-0-2-1-0 stitches evenly spaced = 42-45-48-48-51-54
stitches. Change to double pointed needles size 3 mm. Work A.5 in the round for approx. 4
cm (= 14-15-16-16-17-18 repeats of 3 stitches). Loosely cast o with knit. The sleeve
measures approx. 42-42-42-41-39-38 cm from the division. Work the other sleeve in the
same way.

Diagram explanations

= purl
= make 1 yarn over, slip 1 stitch onto the right needle as if to purl
= yarn over and stitch knitted together
= yarn over and stitch purled together
= work 5 stitches in the knitted stitch and yarn over as follows: Knit the yarn-over
and knitted stitch together, but wait to slip the stitch from the needle, * make 1
yarn over right needle and knit the stitch and yarn over together without slipping
the stitch o the needle *, work from*-* a total of 2 times = 5 stitches (i.e. 4
stitches increased)
= decrease 2 stitches towards the left as follows: slip the rst stitch and yarn over
onto the right needle as if to knit together, knit the next 2 stitches together (i.e. 1
purl + stitch and yarn over), pass the slipped stitch and yarn-over over the knitted
together stitches (= 2 stitches decreased)
= decrease 2 stitches towards the right as follows: slip the rst stitch and yarn over
onto the right needle as if to knit together, purl 1, pass the slipped stitch and
yarn-over over the purled stitch, slip the stitch back onto the left needle, pass the
stitch and yarn-over over the stitch which was slipped back onto the left needle
and slip the remaining stitch onto the right needle (= 2 stitches decreased)
= decrease 4 stitches as follows: slip the rst stitch and yarn over onto the right
needle as if to knit together, slip the purled stitch onto the right needle as if to
purl, place the next stitch and yarn over on an extra needle in front of the piece,
purl the next stitch on the left needle, pass the slipped purled stitch over the
purled stitch just worked, place this stitch back on the left needle, pass the next
stitch and yarn-over over the stitch you placed back on the left needle and slip
this stitch onto the right needle, pass the rst stitch and yarn-over over this
stitch, place the stitch and yarn over from the extra needle back onto the left
needle, slip the stitch on the right needle back onto the left needle, pass the
 stitch and yarn over (which were on the extra needle) over the last stitch placed
on the left needle and slip the remaining stitch onto the right needle (= 4 stitches
decreased)
= between 2 stitches make 1 yarn over; on the next round purl the yarn over
twisted to avoid a hole
= knit 1 in stitch from previous round
