EXPLANATION FOR THE PATTERN:
-------------------------------------------------------
GARTER STITCH (back and forth):
1 ridge = knit 2 rows.
PICOT EDGE (back and forth on needle):
ROW 1 (= right side): Knit all stitches.
ROW 2 (= wrong side): Knit until 4 stitches remain, work these stitches as follows: Knit 2 together, 1 yarn over, then work 2 stitches in each of the last 2 stitches = 2 new stitches on needle.
ROW 3 (= right side): Slip first stitch knitwise, knit 1, pass slipped stitch over stitch worked, knit 1, pass slipped stitch over stitch worked, knit 1, and pass the back stitch on right needle over the front stitch, 2 stitches have been decreased - then knit the rest of row.
ROW 4 (= wrong side): Knit all stitches.
Repeat rows 1 to 4.
BIND-OFF TIP:
To avoid a tight bind-off edge you may use a larger needle size. If this also is too tight, work a 1 yarn over after approx. every 4th stitch while binding off (bind off yarn overs as regular stitches).

Ho già lavorato tantissimi dei vostri schemi ai ferri, anche di tecnicamente più complessi di questo. Ma la spiegazione di questo vestito non è comprensibile, non si capisce l'esatta sequenza delle azioni da svolgere. Credo che la spiegazione corretta è *lavorare il bordo a picot, posizionare il segnapunti-1, lavorare x-x-x-x-x maglie, posizionare il segnapunti-2, girare il lavoro eccetera eccetera * . Datemi conferma se è corretto.

Buonasera Stefania, il segnapunti va posizionato prima perchè il bordo a picot si lavora durante la lavorazione a ferri accorciati. Buon lavoro!

07.11.2021 kl. 13:55Hello, I am working on the Enchanted time pattern. I have knit the dress and am wondering how to do the crochet around the neck. The pattern reads …” 3 chain stitches, 1 treble crochet in double crochet”. I am really confused as what to do after I do the 3 chain stitches. Am I going into one of those chain stitches for the next stitch. Also, I don’t understand what 1 treble crochet in double crochet means. Thank you for your help.

Dear Marcela, this video shows how to crochet such a crocheted edge, but for this edge you will insert the crochet hook in the double crochet (UK-English)/single crochet (US-English) to make the treble crochet (UK-English)/double crochet (US-English) . Happy crocheting!
24.09.2021 kl. 07:39Hej. På bakstycket börjar man maska av för halsen efter 5cm. Sedan stickar man till 9cm,maskar av 10m, läger sedan upp 10 ny m. Men ska börja maska av för halsen efter 1 1/2 cm efter man lagt upp dom nya 10 m. Är det rätt? Då blir dom ju inte lika eller? Tacksam för hjälp. Mvh Lena Falck

Hej Lena. Jo jag tror det ska bli riktigt. Du börjar då att lägga upp nya maskor till halsringningen ca 1,5 cm efter sprundet i mitten. Sedan fortsätter du att lägga upp maskor på varven efter så att när när du lagt upp färdigt så kommer det vara ca 5 cm kvar att sticka på axeln som på den andra sidan. Hoppas du förstår vad jag menar. Mvh DROPS Design
