I read the questions and comments and found the answer that talks about an extra stitch in the main color when starting the purl row. Is this an errata in the pattern as this is the first I see about having to add an extra stitch in the main color. The chart doesn't show this and nowhere in the pattern do I find this mentioned. It isn't practical to have to unravel when you knit in light colors while you try to figure out where you're going wrong.

Dear Mrs Penhoat, there is no mistake in the pattern, you should repeat the 6 sts in the diagram reading right towards left and always end with the first stitch in diagram from RS / work the first stitch in diagram + repeat the 6 sts in diagram reading left towards right from WS. Happy knitting!

Again, thank you so much for the quick answer! Does that mean that both knit and purl rows are read from right to left? I read the purl row left to right and then the pattern reads 1 edge stitch, 1 Main, 1 contrast, 1 Main, 1 contrast, 2 Main.

Dear Mrs Penhoat, diagram is read from right side from the right towards the link and from wrong side from the left towards the right, so when you work the wrong side rows, work the first stitch in A.1 (on the right hand side = the one you end with from RS) then repeat diagram from the left towards the right, on the first row with pattern you will have then 2 sts Main on each side inside the edge stitches. Happy knitting!

I thought it would be plain sailing now when I got my question about increases answered, but no ... I'm stuck again. I have 141 stitches and went on to Row 6 and (purl) where the contrast starts. 1 edge stitch, then A1 starts with 1 Main color, and continues with 1 contrast, 1 Main, 1 contrast, 3 Main (the pattern row starts over with 1 Main so this becomes 3 Main), 1 contrast, I Main, 1 contrast etc.., I end up with 3 not 2 Main stitches before the edge stitch . Where am I going wrong?
01.02.2023 kl. 15:47:DROPS Design answered:
Dear Mrs Penhoat, work your 141 sts as follwos: 1 edge stitch, repeat the 6 sts a total of 23 times (over the next 138 sts), ending with 1 Main, then work the next stitch as the first = 1 Main (so that there are now 2 Main inside the edge stitches on each side) and end with 1 edge stitch in garter stitch. Happy knitting!

Thank you so much for the quick reply! I still have a question though ... am I right in thinking that there are 5 ROWS of MAIN COLOR before the different colored A1 chart actually starts?
31.01.2023 kl. 18:13:DROPS Design answered:
Dear Gun, the 5 starting rows in the main colour are part of A.1. You immediately start working A.1 after the purl and decrease row, but the beginning of A.1 is 5 rows of the main colour. After these five rows, you will start changing colours as explained in the diagram. Happy knitting!

I have finished the rib and done the decrease 6 on the right-side row + increased to 111 stitches. Then I purled and decreased 6 on this purl row. When I look at the chart I now see 5 ROWS in MAIN COLOR before the chart itself. The third row of the 5 is an increase row. However, when I read the description it says to start the A1 chart with 18 (I'm knitting the 2nd size) repeats of the 6 stitch pattern, after the purl (with the decreased 6 stitches) row. HELP, PLEASE!
31.01.2023 kl. 11:58:DROPS Design answered:
Dear Mrs Penhoat, just increase on 3rd row as stated for your size = there are now 141 sts on needle after this increase round, and now work A.1 as before: 1 edge st in garter st, repeat A.1 until 2 sts remain (there are now enough room for 23 repeats of A.1), work the first stitch in A.1 and end with 1 edge stitch in garter stitch. And continue like this, ie everytime you will increase, you will repeat A.1 more times in width but repeat A.1 until the last 2 sts and end with the first st in A.1 + 1 edge st in garter stitch. Happy knitting!

I have a further question. Should the garter stitch on each edge be worked in main colour or can you use the same colour as the stitch next to it?
04.12.2022 kl. 19:44:DROPS Design answered:
Dear Mrs Douglas, you can work the edge stitches with the main colour used on the row. Happy knitting!
06.12.2022 kl. 10:13:Jenny Douglas wrote:
Regarding the "extra" stitch from A1, prior to the garter stitch. This is first stitch from A1. Row 6 is a purl row and after A1, the final two stitches will be a Wheat purl and a Wheat garter stitch. Following the chart, Starting row 7 I have a garter stitch, then a Wheat knit then a Brown knit, but this does not match the pattern. Should I add the extra stitch from A1 at the beginning of knit rows and the end of purl rows? Should extra stitch be from left hand side of chart?
04.12.2022 kl. 12:54:DROPS Design answered:
Dear Mrs Douglas, on the 6th row (from WS) work first the 1st stitch in A.1 (= wheat), then repeat A.1 reading from the left towards the right) = there are 2 sts with wheat inside edge sts, then on row 7 (from RS), work A.1 (read from the right towards the left) starting with 1 st with wheat, then end with first st A.1 (= 1 st with wheat), pattern is now symmetrical. Happy knitting!

Liebe Karin, die Randmasche wird mit der Hauptfarbe der Reihe gestrickt - z.B. bei 7. Reihe stricken Sie mit weizen. Viel Spaß beim stricken!

Für meinen Begriff ist die Strickschrift nicht korrekt. Da man die Jacke in Reihen strickt, müsste man gerade Reihen vom links nach rechts Stricken und ungerade von rechts nach links. Dann passt aber das Muster nicht. Außerdem ist die Strickschrift identisch mit der des passenden Pullovers der ja in Runden gestrickt wird. Mann müsste immer von rechts nach links lesen damit es passt. Oder?

Liebe Karin, das Diagram ist identisch mit dem des passenden Pullovers, denn es ist das gleiche - Hinreihen lesen Sie rechts nach links und Rückreihen lesen Sie links nach rechts - hier lesen Sie mehr. Viel Spaß beim stricken!

Jeg havde glædet mig het vildt til at strikke den, da den bare er så fin. Jeg har købt Drops Air til det. Desværre fæller det helt vildt meget. Jeg har opgivet da den vil være ubrugelig fordi den fæller så vildt meget. Det synes jeg er super ærgerligt og spild af penge..
