Pattern for DROPS 186-32

INFORMATION FOR PATTERN:

PATTERN:
See diagrams A.1 to A.5.

CROCHET INFO:
Begin every treble crochet row with 3 chain stitches (replaces first treble crochet).
When sleeves are worked in the round, begin and end every round in A.1 as follows:
Begin 1st and 2nd round in A.1 with 3 chain stitches (do not replace first treble
crochet) and finish with 1 slip stitch in 3rd chain stitch at beginning of round
Begin 3rd and 4th round in A.1 with 3 chain stitches (replace first treble crochet) and
finish with 1 slip stitch in 3rd chain stitch at beginning of round

STRIPES:
In the first 3 repetitions of the diagrams vertically work 1st and 2nd row with white,
work the remaining rows in light blue purple - read COLOUR CHANGE. Then work the
remaining repetitions of A.1 in light blue purple.

COLOUR CHANGE:
When changing colour work as follows: Work last treble crochet with first colour but
wait with last pull through, switch to next colour and work last pull through, then
continue working.

INCREASE/DECREASE TIP:
To calculate how to increase/decrease evenly, use the total number of stitches to be
increased/decreased over (e.g. 24 stitches) and divide stitches by number of
increases/decreases to be done (e.g. 3) = 8.
To increase evenly in this example work 2 treble crochets in every 8th treble crochet.
To decrease evenly in this example work every 7th and 8th treble crochet together.
Decrease 1 treble crochet by working 2 treble crochets together as follows: Work 1
treble crochet in/around first stitch, but wait with last pull through, work 1 treble
crochet in/around next treble crochet/stitch, but on last pull through pull yarn
through all 3 loops on hook.
----------------------------------------------------------

JACKET:
Yoke and body are worked back and forth from mid front, top down. Sleeves are
worked in the round. Band and neck edge are worked back and forth at the end.
