![]() Now P the middle 32-34-36-38-40-42 sts on every row (work the other sts as before). Then continue in garter st while AT THE SAME TIME continuing to dec for armhole inside the 5 P sts in each side – Read DECREASE TIP. When piece measures 5-6-7-8-9-10 cm / 2"-2 3/8"-2 3/4"-3 1/8"-3½"-4" from where piece was divided, bind off 3-3-4-5-5-6 sts at the beg of the next 2 rows for armholes, continue with 5 P sts in each side. ![]() Now on every row P 8-8-9-10-10-11 sts in each side. On next row divide piece as follows: Work 43-47-51-54-61-67 sts and slip these sts on a stitch holder (= right front piece), work 76-84-92-98-112-124 sts (= back piece), slip the remaining 43-47-51-54-61-67 sts on a stitch holder (= left front piece), now measure piece from here and finish each part separately. K 1 row from WS (work the 5 band sts in each side as before). Switch to circular needle size 3.5 mm / US 4. On next row from RS, K all sts while AT THE SAME TIME adjusting the no of sts to 162-178-194-206-234-258. Then continue with pattern as before until piece measures 36 cm / 14 1/4''. Then continue with pattern as before until piece measures 27 cm / 10 5/8''. 10 cm / 4'' and 22 cm / 8 3/4'', K 1 row from WS over all sts (work band sts as before).ĪT THE SAME TIME when piece measures 18 cm / 7'', dec 2 sts in the remaining M.1 = 203-227-251-267-299-331 sts. Continue as follows (beg from RS): P5 band sts, M.1 (see diagram for size) 12-12-12-16-16-16 times over the next 216-240-264-288-320-352 sts, 1 st in stockinette st, P5 band sts. Work 2 rows in GARTER ST - see explanation above - with 5 band sts in each side. P the 5 band sts on every row until finished measurements. Worked back and forth on circular needle from mid front.Ĭast on 227-251-275-299-331-363 sts (includes 5 band sts in each side towards mid front) on 2 circular needles size 4 mm / US 6 with Muskat (to avoid a tight cast on edge). All dec are done from RS.ĭec after 5 sts as follows: Slip 1 st as if to K, K 1, psso.īind off for button holes on right front band.ġ button hole = bind off the 3rd band st, on next row cast on 1 new st over the bind off st.īind off for button holes when piece measures: GARTER ST (back and forth on needle): K all rows.ĭec for neck and armholes inside 5 P sts.

Homework: If possible, please learn the cast-on found at. Pair of straight or circular needles in the size you would normally use for your chosen yarn.2 solid colors (one light, one darker) of plain yarn in the DK to worsted weight range.At the end of the workshop, you should have a motif swatch and be confident that you can tackle a larger standard double-knitting pattern. In this workshop, you’ll learn Alasdair's 2-color cast-on for double-knitting, get comfortable with the techniques involved, then move into colorwork. Significantly different from the standard intarsia and Fair Isle colorwork that are so well known, double-knitting is a labor-intensive but wholly worthwhile technique to have in your repertoire. Friday, September 30, from 6-9 pm or Saturday, October 1, from 1:30-4:30 pm.ĭouble-knitting is a unique method of making a fabric with no “wrong” side and a built-in reversible colorwork pattern. Please make sure you click on the calendar above for the session you want. NOTE: There are two sessions of this class offered during KDO.
