Hvordan lese strikkediagrammer

Et strikkediagram består av ruter, 1 rute = 1 maske - symbolforklaringen forteller deg hvordan masken skal strikkes. Diagrammet viser alle masker sett fra rettsiden (med mindre noe annet er spesifisert).

Et diagram ser slik ut:

A.1 er navnet på diagrammet, og refererer til hele diagrammet.
A.2 er kun den delen av diagrammet som er innenfor klammene.
Dette tallet refererer til hvor mange masker første rad av diagrammet går over.
Dette er symbolforklaringen: den forteller hvordan hver maske skal strikkes, eller i hvilken farge det strikkes.

Man leser et strikkediagram motsatt av slik man normalt leser: Fra høyre mot venstre, nedenfra og opp. Du begynner altså nederst i det høyre hjørnet, og jobber deg mot venstre og oppover (se RØD sirkel og piler under). Hvis det skal startes med en annen maske står dette spesifisert – for eksempel kan man begynne på forskjellige steder i de ulike størrelsene (se BLÅ firkant under).

Skal det strikkes flere rapporter av et diagram (altså, hvis det skal gjentas i bredden), strikker man til enden av raden, og begynner på nytt med første symbol igjen.

Frem og tilbake:

Når du strikker frem og tilbake, vil annenhver pinne strikkes fra retten og annenhver pinne strikkes fra vrangen. Siden diagrammet viser alle masker sett fra rettsiden, må det derfor strikkes motsatt når det strikkes fra vrangen (se blå pil i diagrammet under): du leser raden fra venstre mot høyre, rettmasker strikkes vrang, vrangmasker strikkes rett (dette står ofte i symbolforklaringen: «rett fra rettsiden, vrang fra vrangsiden»).

Rundt:

Når du strikker rundt, strikkes alle omganger fra rettsiden, og diagrammet leses derfor kun fra høyre mot venstre. Når du skal begynne på en ny omgang går du helt enkelt til symbolet helt til høyre på neste rad i diagrammet (se røde piler i diagrammet under).

Flere ulike diagrammer etter hverandre:

Hvis du skal strikke flere forskjellige diagrammer etter hverandre i bredden/på omgangen strikker du slik: strikk 1 rad i 1 diagram, strikk så 1 rad i 2 diagram, og 1 rad i 3 diagram osv. HUSK: Om du strikker frem og tilbake må diagrammene strikkes i motsatt rekkefølge fra vrangsiden – altså begynn med diagram 3, så diagram 2 og tilslutt diagram 1. De strikkes i tillegg motsatt vei, som vanlig.

I oppskriften kan det stå skrevet slik: «Strikk A.1, A.2, A.3 totalt 1-1-2-3-4 ganger». Her strikkes først A.1, så strikkes A.2, mens A.3 skal gjentas 1-1-2-3-4 ganger i bredden (velg din størrelse). Altså, det er KUN A.3 som skal gjentas. A.1 og A.2 strikkes bare 1 gang hver.

Når maskeantallet ikke går opp i hele rapporter av diagrammet:

Noen ganger går ikke maskeantallet ditt opp med hele rapporter av diagrammet i bredden. For eksempel: A.1 går over 12 masker, og dette skal gjentas over 40 masker. Her strikker du da 3 hele rapporter av A.1 (= 36 masker) og så strikker du de 4 første maskene av den fjerde rapporten (se rød strek under). Oftest gjelder dette diagrammer med gjentagende mønster, slik at det ikke blir noe brudd i mønsteret på plagget.

Re Drops 199 -41, Jacket yoke: when you change to 3mm c.n., you start the PATTERN after 2 rows. Can you explain how with 163 sts (large size) you “ Work 5 band sts, A1 (=12 sts), A2 (= 10sts) a total of 14 times, A3 ( = 1st), 5 band sts. Continue like this back and forth? When A1 to A3 have been completed there are 343 sts on the needle. Please tell me the sequence as 2 x 5 band sts plus 14 X 12 (A1) plus 14 X10 ((A2);plus 14 X 1 (A3) does not add up to 163? Please help .

Dear Mrs Galbraith, work as follows: 5 front band sts, A.1 (= 12 sts), repeat now the 10 sts in A.2 a total of 14 times (= over the next 140 sts) and work now the stitch in A.3 and end with 5 front band sts, so that you have: 5+12+140+1+5=163 sts. Can this help?

Hallo, ich stricke gerade den FjordMosaic Damenpullover Modell li 122. Wie stricke ich denn A1, A2a, A2b und A2c weiter, wenn das Strickdiagramm nach 16 Reihen endet. Ich soll ja insgesamt 64 (32 Zunahmerunden stricken)? Schöne Grüße Irina

DROPS Design answered:

Liebe Irian, in A.2A und in A.2C haben Sie jeweils 8 Maschen gestrickt, so stricken Sie A.2A über die ersten 9 Maschen vorrigen A.2A und A.2B über die letzten 9 Maschen A.2A - beim A.2C stricken Sie A.2B über die ersten 9 Maschen vorrigen A.2C und A.2C über die letzten Maschen vorrigen A.2C, so stricken Sie 2 Rapporte A.2B mehr zwischen A.2A und A.2C jedesmal Diagramme in der Höhe gestrickt sind . Viel Spaß beim stricken!

Pattern Lavendar Lace headband. When reading the chart for the third row, there are three knit stitches but the first one is blackened out, and then the next two stitches has a yarn over in between. But there are three knit stitches - what happens to the first knit stitch? Do you just slip it?

07.02.2022 - 05:26:

DROPS Design answered:

Dear Mrs Gram, remember diagrams are read bottom up, ie in this pattern you will decrease 1 stitch in the K3 section (= slip 1, K2, psso), then on 2nd row, make 1 yarn over between these 2 remaining stitches = you will have 3 sts again for row 3 and 4. See also this video. Happy knitting!

Drops design. Pattern fa 301 After I finished the rib part on the sock, I decreased the stitches by knitting in the round and knitting 2 together. The diagram to start the colorwork then goes knit one round then purl one round. My question is ……as I am going in the round do I knit all rounds instead of knitting then purling the next. It just does not look right. Any help appreciated as I am a beginner knitter. Thank you.

DROPS Design answered:

Dear Mrs Downey, in A.1 for DROPS 161-34 you will work in the round as follows: knit first round, purl 2nd round, knit 3rd round, purl 4th round, knit 5th round, (K2 tog, YO) on 6th round, then knit 7th round, purl 8th round, knit 9th round, and purl 10th round. Happy knitting!

Liebe Frau Nikisch, diese Extra Masche bei der 5. und 11. Reihe ist nicht im Diagram gezeichnet, aber bei der 6. und 12. Reihe stricken Sie diese Masche zusammen mit der nächsten Masche (= 5. Symbol) links verschränkt zusammen, damit die Maschenanzahl nicht zunimmt. Viel Spaß beim stricken!

Dear Gayaline, at the beginning of the round, work the new stitch as the last stitch in diagram (as the last stitch a previous repeat), at the end of the round, work the new stitch as the next stitch = the first stitch next repeat. Happy knitting!

Hi , I am making 210/10 and I have no idea near the end of yoke it says after doing A1.d to A.3d 3 times it states . Then work A.1c over A.1d,A.2c over A.2d A.3c over A.3d and I have no idea what this means am I supposed to do different sections to 1 row , totally confused need help :-)

16.01.2022 - 21:17:

DROPS Design answered:

Dear Helen, A.1 is the beginning of the row, A.2 is the repeats in the row, which depends on the size; and A.3 is the end of the row, but afterward you repeat A.1 so that the garment is symmetrical. When you work A.1c over A.1d you need to work the diagram downward. Happy knitting!

I am knitting the Drops pattern 219-9, Fisher's Moon. I have just finished the ribbing on the front piece . I am confused. The next row(s) show decreases in the number of stitches and yet I am to end to end up with 102 stitches when I started with 90 stitches an increase of 12 stitches. Please help me understand where my misunderstanding in reading this pattern is. Thank you

13.01.2022 - 17:33:

DROPS Design answered:

Dear Mrs Solomon, on the first row of "x-part" of the diagrams, you will have to decrease over some stitches, but at the same time, working diagrams, you will have to increase 2 sts in each A.1, A.2, A.3, A.4, A,5 so that you should get a total of 102 sts at the end of the round. Happy knitting!

En suivant un diagramme avec deux couleurs différentes , si lors d’un rang, je n’utilise qu’une couleur, est-ce que je peux laisser la laine de couleur non utilisée en attente pour le prochain tour ou dois-je faire suivre le fil comme dans tout jacquard? Merci à l’avance pour votre réponse.

08.01.2022 - 14:38:

DROPS Design answered:

Bonjour Louise, tout dépend, si vous tricotez en rangs, vous pouvez alors tricoter le rang suivant du même côté (endroit ou envers), du côté où le fil se trouve pour éviter d'avoir à faire suivre ce fil (et risque de resserrer l'ouvrage), si vous tricotez en rond, vous le reprendrez au début du tour suivant. Bon tricot!

Doing DROPS 214-14 (XL). After doing A1 I am at the correct number of stitches (240). Then told to knit 20 sets of the design, each with 12 stitches. Having followed directions, in A2 (I can´t see where I must have gone wrong) I end up with 22 sets of the design and ca 330 stitches instead of 300 - where I am supposed to divide for sleeves etc. How could I add 2 sets of the design, with increases as prescribed?
