Kaja:  Oppskrift på strikket vest23:55 Jeg vet at Marius ønsker seg en strikket vest. En eller annen gang skal jeg nok ta meg tid til å lage en til ham, og da trenger jeg en oppskrift. Nå har jeg funnet en på nett:http://knitty.com/ISSUEwinter02/PATTdiamonds.html For sikkerhets skyld kopierer jeg den inn her i tilfelle den blir borte for meg før jeg kommer så langt som til å lage den. (Det har hent før!) SIZE M/L[XL/XXL] Size shown is XL/XXL. FINISHED MEASUREMENTS Chest: 50[54] inches Length: 27[29] inches MATERIALS Tahki Donegal Tweed Homespun [100 % wool; 183 yd per 3.5oz skein]; color: #857 royal purple; 5 skeins 1 set US #6/4mm straight needles 1 set US #8/5mm straight needles 1 16-inch US #6/4mm circular needle Tapestry needle Stitch holder GAUGE 16 sts/20 rows = 4" in stockinette stitch DIRECTIONS Diamond Stitch Pattern The stitch pattern is worked over 98 stitches [16 st repeat plus 2 extra]. The additional stitches at each end of the row should be worked in stockinette stitch. For the M/L size, this is 1 stitch at each end, and for the XL/XXL size, this is 4 stitches at each end. LT = With RH needle behind LH needle, skip next st on LH needle, k 2nd st tbl, then k skipped st in front lp, sl both sts from LH needle. RT = Skip next st on LH needle, k 2nd st in front of skipped st, then k skipped st, sl both sts from LH needle. Row 1: K1, *LT, k4, RT*, k1 Row 2 and all WS rows: Purl. Row 3: K2, *LT, k2, RT, k2*. Row 5: K3, *LT, RT, k4*, k3. Row 7: K4, *RT, k6*,k4 Row 9: K3, *RT, LT; k4*, k3 Row 11: K2, *RT, k2, LT, k2* Row 13: K1, *RT, k4, LT*, k1 Row 15: K8, *LT, k6*, end k2 Row 16: Purl Repeat Rows 1-16 for pattern. Back Using smaller needles, CO 100[108] sts. Work in k2p2 rib for 2 inches, ending with a RS row. Switch to larger needles and purl one WS row. Work in pattern until piece measures 15[16] inches. Shape Armholes Continue to work in pattern, and at the same time: BO 5[6] sts at the beg of the next two rows. Dec 1 st each end of needle every RS 6[7] times. 78[82] sts remain. Continue even until the armholes measure 12[13] inches. [On the model, I switched from the diamond pattern to stockinette stitch when I was approx 1-2 inches from completing the needed armhole length. This allows for a nice, neat shoulder seam without worrying about whether the front and back diamond pattern lines up exactly. If you wish, do so only after completing Row 8 or 16 of the diamond pattern.] Shape shoulders BO 8 sts at the beg of the next 4 rows. BO 7[8] sts at the beg of the next 2 rows. BO the remaining sts for back neck. Front Work as for back. When until armholes measure approximately 4.5[5] inches, begin neck shaping. [78[82] sts remain.] Shape V-neck With RS facing, work across 39[41] sts. Place rem sts on a holder for later. Working on the right side of neck only, dec 1 st at neck edge every RS row 16[17] times. 23[24] sts remain. Work even until armhole measures same as back to shoulder. BO shoulder as for back. Rejoin yarn at neck edge of held sts and work second section of neck as the first. FINISHING Block pieces to measurements. Using yarn and tapestry needle, stitch all seams. Finishing Armholes With circular needle, pick up and k 3 sts for every 4 rows around armhole, being sure you end up with an even number of sts. Work these sts in k1p1 ribbing for approx 1 inch [or your desired width]. BO all sts in rib. Weave in loose ends. Neckband With circular needle and beginning at a shoulder seam, pick up and k 3 sts for every 4 rows around neckband, again ending up with an even number of stitches. When you reach the center of the "V", be sure to pick up a stitch and mark it as your center stitch. Work your sts in k1p1 ribbing to the center 5 sts; k2togtbl, k1, k2tog. Continue ribbing, working as stated above each time you reach the center 5 sts. When neckband measures approx 1 inch [or your desired width], bind off loosely but neatly in rib. Weave in loose ends. Block vest again if desired. |
