Diagram
This pattern has proved IMPOSSIBLE to complete, I have counted EVERY STITCH on EVERY ROW and there is NO WAY the sleeves are correct, Also y0u end up with a triangle sticking up in the back and a Triangle shaped pouch at the back of the sleeve! I asked a clear question which was do you have to make two jacket pieces and was told you didn't understand the question, I would love to know how, if you don't understand a simple question, you managed to translate the pattern? I am so disappointed!
14.12.2021 - 22:18Thank you for your reply, but I'm more confused now. Do you have to make 2 pieces of the jacket or one?
10.12.2021 - 10:18DROPS Design answered:
Dear Mrs Bradbury, I don't understand your question sorry, you work first body bottom up to armholes, then the both sleeves, then insert the sleeves between front & back pieces skipping some repeats/stitches for amrholes. Can this help?
10.12.2021 kl. 11:27I have tried and tried but cannot attach the sleeves, plus how many triangles should be on jacket and how many on sleeve please. I have done this 3 times now and cannot get it right. I have 6 triangles on jacket and 2 on the sleeve, pleeeeeease help ...thank you
09.12.2021 - 22:10DROPS Design answered:
Dear Mrs Bradbury, follow the explanation on first row on yoke, you should get: 32-40-48 tr (UK-English) for each front piece + 52-68-84 tr for each sleeve + 52-68-84 sts for back piece = 220-284-348 tr. Can this help?
10.12.2021 kl. 08:44Bonjour Je voudrai faire ce pull en simple fil avec du fil Drops Safran . Du coup, je veux utiliser 5 couleurs différentes, pour faire les 5 vagues. Combien de pelotes de chaque couleur faut il que j'achète ? pour la va Merci Annabel
02.03.2021 - 17:35DROPS Design answered:
Bonjour Annabel, ce modèle a été conçu pour 2 fils Alpaca (ou Safran) sur la base de 15 brides x 9 rangs = 10 x 10 cm, si vous choisissez 1 seul fil Safran, votre échantillon ne sera pas le même et toutes les explications devront être recalculées; vous pouvez en revanche utiliser 1 fil du groupe C (Paris par exemple si vous voulez du coton). Retrouvez ici plus d'infos sur les alternatives. Bon crochet!
03.03.2021 kl. 06:54Hej! Det står hur man mäter under Mättips, men det kan inte gälla ärmarna? Om jag kikar på diagrammet ser det ut som jag ska mäta ärmen från spetsen (vändningarna i vågmönstret), stämmer det?

Hei Karin. Uansett hvor du måler på ermene, enten fra tuppen eller ikke, så er cm målene det samme, som skal være: 3 cm med 1 tråd grågrønn + 1 tråd lys grågrønn, 11 cm med 2 tråder lys grågrønn og 11-12-13 cm med 1 tråd lys grågrønn + 1 tråd natur. mvh DROPS design

19.06.2019 kl. 07:02Nav uw reactie over de hoeveelheid garen hoeft het niet zo te zijn dat het niet eerder gebeurd is dat mensen garen tekort zijn gekomen. Wellicht hebben mensen het gewoon niet gemeld. Van het licht groen wordt aanzienlijk meer gebruikt in het vest en in de mouwen dan van de overige kleuren. Ik zal garen moeten bij bestellen en dat zal een ander verfbad hebben gehad en zal u in dus kleurverschil krijgen.
23.08.2018 - 22:59Ik ben inmiddels klaar met het lijfje van dit vest, maar volgens mij kom ik licht groen garen tekort voor de mouwen. In het lijfje zijn er 3 van de 4 strepen waar licht groen in gebruikt wordt. Daarvan 2 strepen met 1 draad licht groen en 1 draad met een andere kleur. De 3e streep is zelfs dubbeldraads licht groen. Ook in de mouwen wordt van de kleur licht groen het meest gebruikt. Dan begrijp ik niet dat de hoeveelheid licht groen hetzelfde is in het patroon als de donkere kleur groen?!
18.08.2018 - 18:06DROPS Design answered:
Dag Inger, Het klopt inderdaad dat je in meer strepen lichtgroen gebruikt, maar er is niet eerder een tekort aan aangegeven garen gerapporteerd. De hoeveelheden zouden voldoende moeten zijn. Als je tekort komt kun je het verkooppunt vragen of er je nog garen kunt krijgen van hetzelfde verfbad. (Zie verfbadnummer op de wikkel)
20.08.2018 kl. 08:23Chaining 117 for the sleeves makes them absolutely huge! What can I do about this!
21.02.2018 - 14:48DROPS Design answered:
Dear Michelle, in such a zigzag pattern you need more sts in width than for a usual "straight" pattern. Remember to always check - and then keep - your tension so that you will get the correct measurement as shown in chart. Happy crocheting!
21.02.2018 kl. 15:24Ik kom met de opzet van 236 lossen al veel te groot uit, ik heb meestal maat L
24.08.2017 - 12:27DROPS Design answered:
Hallo Lisette, Houd er rekening mee dat de punten aan de onderkant nog gevormd moeten worden, waardoor je meer steken op moet zetten. Als je een proeflapje hebt gemaakt en de stekenverhouding klopt, dan komt het waarschijnlijk wel goed.
