DROPS 213-26

DROPS Design answered:

Dear Karen, the filled in square is only worked on wrong side rows: you can check that this symbol is only worked on even rows: row 2, row 4, row 6, e.t.c. in the charts. Since you start working the charts on a right side row (as indicated at the end of the neck) the even rows of the charts will be worked always on the wrong side. Happy knitting!

DROPS Design answered:

Dear Karen, if you had 87 stitches at the neck you would have 87 stitches now as well. In the first row of the yoke you work A.1b over A.1a (both are only 1 stitch), A.2b over A.2a (so a 3 stitch pattern over a 3 stitch pattern) and A.3b over A.3a (so a 5-stitch pattern over a 5-stitch pattern). The number of stitches doesn't change between the end of the neck and the yoke; the increases start from this round onwards. Happy knitting!

DROPS Design answered:

Dear Mrs Dainter, work the 87 sts as follows: 5 sts garter stitch, A.1a (= 1 st), then work *A.2a (= 3 sts), A.3a (= 5 sts) a total of 9 times (= 8 sts x 9 )=72 sts, then work A.2a (3 sts), A.1a (1 st) and 5 sts in garter stitch = 5+1+72+3+1+5=87 sts. Happy knitting!

DROPS Design answered:

Dear Karen, after you have worked Row 2 with first row diagrams A.1a to A.3a continue like this means read the digrams from the left towards the right from WS: 5 front band sts in gartrer st, A.1a, A.2a, repeat (A.3a, A.2a) and finish with A.1a and 5 sts garter stitch - reading diagrams from the left towards the right from WS. Happy knitting!

DROPS Design answered:

Dear Fiona, the 0 is matching the last symbol => yarn over to increase the number of stitches in each repeat, so that you can see on next row there is one extra stitch on the same side of middle stitch as you made this yarn over. Happy knitting!

DROPS Design answered:

Dear Fiona, the 0 = between 2 stitches make 1 yarn over; yarn over is worked twisted on next row to avoid a hole. It's the same oval; when the 0 is not worked twisted then it's drawn as a black-filled 0 (which is not used in these charts). So you make 1 yarn over between the symbol of the square to the right and the symbol of the square to the left of the 0 (or inversed when you work from the wrong side: first the left square and then the right square). Happy knitting!

DROPS Design answered:

Dear Fiona, it means that you work as established in row 2, with the garter stitches on each side and the charts. Work garter stitch over garter stitch, row 2 of A.1a over row 1 of A.1a, row 2 of A.2a over row 1 of A.2a and row 2 of A.3a over row 2 of A.3a. Happy knitting!

DROPS Design answered:

Dear Fiona, it means that, over the stitches that were worked according to chart A.1a you will now work A.1b; the stitches worked according to chart A.2a will now be worked according to chart A.2b and the stitches worked according to chart A.3a will now be worked according to chart A.3b. Happy knitting!

DROPS Design answered:

Dear Mrs Remmling, when a.1b is done (just 1 row) repeat the 4 rows framed for A.1c - at the same time continue the other diagrams as shown. Happy knitting!

Dag Monika,

Het is de bedoeling dat je de naald in de steek steekt die 6 naalden verder naar beneden zit. Dan sla je de draad om de naald aan de achterkant van het werk en haal je de draad aan de voorkant op en deze zetje op de linker naald. Dit herhaal je steeds met omslagen ertussen. Dus wat tussen de sterretjes staat bij de symboolverklaring herhaal je steeds.

DROPS Design answered:

Hei Firideh, På bærestykket skal du strikke A.1b over A.1a (så A.1a er ferdig), og likedan med A.2b og A.3b over A.2a og A.3a. Dvs, på bærestykket strikker du A.1b. A.2b og A.3b. Når A.1b er ferdig i høyden (etter 1 gang), er disse maskene strikket i A.1c videre oppover. Du fortsetter med A.2b og A.3b til de er ferdige. God fornøyelse!

DROPS Design answered:

Hi Julie, No, this means to continue the diagrams onwards. Happy knitting!

DROPS Design answered:

Hej Mona, jo du øker på bærestykket ifølge diagrammet. God fornøjelse!

DROPS Design answered:

Dear Mrs Meiling Andrup, you are working reversed stocking stitch on yoke after diagram have been worked (= knit from the wrong side and purl from the right side and then work in stocking stitch on body (and sleeve) after division. Happy knitting!

DROPS Design answered:

Bonjour Pétronille, c'est tout à fait exact, l'empiècement est plus long dans les grandes tailles, les manches seront donc plus courtes et donc l'empiècement étant plus court dans les petites tailles, les manches sont plus longues - vous pouvez ajustez si besoin à vos mesures en vérifiant les mesures du schéma et les comparant à un vêtement similaire que vous avez et dont vous aimez la forme. Bon tricot!

DROPS Design answered:

Hola Mirabel, los diagramas muestran todas las hileras del patrón vistas por el lado derecho. Buen trabajo!
