Diagram
Hei, nydelig teppe. Jeg har et spørsmål til de små blomstene. I omg 3 hekles 6 masker med 2 st i midten, i rad 4 står det 1fm i toppen av bladet. Hva tenker dere er toppen av bladet, velger dere kun en av stavene tilfeldig eller settes fm i mellomrommet mellom disse to stavene slik at det blir akkurat på midten?

Hei Reidun, Du velger språk i boksen under fotoen. Der finner du oppskriften på norsk. God fornøyelse!
13.03.2023 - 07:11Mich wundert, dass für dieses Modell unter anderen die Farbe „Koralle“ vorgesehen ist. Dennoch ist sie nicht zu kaufen, auch bei Paris nicht. Ich möchte die Decke mit der Wolle Baby Merino machen. Welche Farbe würden Sie mir statt Koralle empfehlen, damit das ganze diese frische freche Note beibehält? Gerade Koralle gibt die Originalität der Decke. Sehr Schade, dass es sie nicht gibt. Vielen Dank.

Liebe Frau Marchal, die Name dieser Farbe Nr 38 wurde inzwischen aktualisiert, aber diese Farbe gibt es immer noch - für jegliche Unterstützung bei der Wahl der Farben wenden Sie Sie bitte an Ihrem DROPS Händler, dort wird man Ihnen am besten die besten passenden Farben - auch per Telefon oder per E-Mail- empfehlen. Viel Spaß beim häkeln!
07.11.2022 - 07:47I have just completed a superking size blanket for my daughter using your Orange Blossom pattern. I had no problems with the pattern and enjoyed every minute I spent working on it. I made 110 squares, 11 rows by 10 squares using 50g balls of White 40, Apricot 6 Yellow 7 pink 7 Raspberry 13 Orange 15. Email address please so I can send photo. It took 4.5 months to make. I am 84 years old and crochet slowly now due to arthritis in my fingers.

06.05.2019 - 10:57Good morning. Love this blanket. Please can I check for the striped square, should the work be turned at the end of every row or just row 2? Thank you.

Dear Lindyloowho, you turn the work at the end of every row in the striped square. Only the finishing border is worked in round around whole square. Happy crocheting!
