In the description of the pattern it stipulate M.1 (=4 sts) M.2 (= 4 sts) Does it means that after the 2 first rows are completed the number of stitches would have i increased and that it was only stipulated once on the making of the explanation P2, K2, P4, M.1, (=4 sts)P4, K2, P4, K2, M.1, P4 M.2 ( =4 sts),P4, K2, P4, K2, P4, M.2, P4, K2..... Could you please let me know if I understand that correctly or am I missing something

Dear Louise, the first row in M.1 and M.2 is worked over 4 sts but on this row you will increase 2 sts (K1, YO, K2, YO, K1) so that M.1 and M.2 will be now worked each over 6 sts to the end (with same number of P sts as on first row). Happy knitting!

Voor dit patroon heb ik jullie aanwijzingen voor het omzetten naar een ander garen gebruikt. Ik kwam hierbij uit op 28 bollen DROPS Snow en ben gestart met dubbele draad Snow, zoals aangegeven. Na een stuk gebreid te hebben heb ik de indruk dat ik veel meer bollen Snow nodig ga hebben. Kunnen jullie narekenen hoeveel bollen Snow ipv Polaris ik nodig heb? Hartelijk dank!

Dag P Rossèl,
Ik kom ook op 28 bollen uit. Als je twijfelt zou je wat extra bollen kunnen bestellen en je verkooppunt vragen binnen welke termijn je overgebleven bollen weer terug kunt sturen.

I want to make a queen size blanket can it be done? If so how many stitches should I cast?
01.10.2022 - 01:39DROPS Design answered:
Dear Liliana, we don't make custom patterns. If you have the same gauge as stated in the pattern, you can see how many stitches you have in 10 cm. You can then use the rule of three to see how many stitches you would need in the cm/inches desired. For the repeats of the pattern, you will need to work more repeats of M.1 and M.2, with knitted and purled stitches between them, but continue knitting 2 stitches in garter stitch on each side of the blanket. Happy knitting!

I’m following the pattern but i have difficulty in the 7th row. I cannot understand M1 (4sts) and M2 (4 sts). Could you pls explain. I know that M1 (4 sts) and M2 (4sts) x2 make 80 stiches, but i don’t know how to work it out! Thanks!
30.10.2020 - 17:08DROPS Design answered:
Dear Mrs Galea, work the stitches as explained ie either K or P and work the 4 sts in M.2 as shown in diagram on first row= K1, YO, K2, YO, K1 (you increase 2 sts in each diagram). Turn and work next row from WS: K over K and P over P and P the stitches in diagrams. then continue diagram - read more about diagrams here. When the diagrams are done in height, repeat the last 10 rows only = cross stitches every 10th row). Happy knitting!

Hej! Jag har en fråga om stickfastheten. Jag stickar med 12 mm sticka (stickar rätt fasthet enligt provlapp, stickar ganska fast, tycker jag). När jag stickat fram till flätorna mäter kudden ca 52 cm. Vilken sticka ska jag välja föreslår ni?
01.03.2020 - 14:44DROPS Design answered:
Hej Kerstin, Flätorna vill dra ihop måttet på kudden, men om du tycker det blir för löst får du prova med en mindre sticka. Lycka till :)

Guten Abend , ich habe 2 Fragen zum Diagramm. wann sollen die Umschläge zwischen 2 Maschen gemacht werden? Wie viele Musterrunden und ab wann sollen die Musterrunden gearbeitet werden? In der 1. Musterunde wird beschrieben, dass M1 und M2 übe 4 Maschen gearbeitet werden , hab ich das richtig gelesen. VG und einen schönen Abend -Simone
31.03.2019 - 20:24DROPS Design answered:
Liebe Simone, die 2 Umschläge bei der 1. Reihe in M.1 und M.2 sollen nur bei der 1. Reihe im Muster gestrickt werden. Wenn M.1 und M.2 einmal in der Höhe gestrickt sind, wiederholen Sie nur die 10 letzen Reihen. Viel Spaß beim stricken!

I am unclear when to repeat the cable pattern. Is it every 10th row? I love the blanket but am having difficulty with the directions. I am adding 8 stitches when I begin the cable but continue the cable pattern with the 6 stitches every ??? Row?
02.12.2017 - 18:14DROPS Design answered:
Hi Sandy, The diagrams of M1 and M2 are helpful in combination with the text. After repeating rows 1 and 2, you only work the top 10 rows in M1 and M2. Reading from the bottom, you knit 6 rows then work a row with the cable needle then knit 3 rows then begin at bottom again and knit 6 rows before using the cable needle again. I hope this helps and happy knitting!
