Buonasrra Samanta, abbiamo corretto il testo: ora sono presenti tutte le informazioni. Buon lavoro!Bonjour, dans la légende des diagrammes, il est dit : "faire un jeté entre 2mailles. Au rang suivant, tricoter le jeté à l'envers jeté" Que signifie à l'envers jeté? Est ce qu'il faut juste tricoté le jeté a l'envers? Doit on avoir un grand trou ou un petit? Merci d'avance

Bonjour Fanny, ce n'était qu'une faute de frappe (corrigée, merci), au rang suivant, on tricote le jeté à l'envers. Bon tricot!PS med mønsteret mener jeg DIAGRAMMET. Mvh Kate
Flot skøn tunika. Men AK der er ikke overensstemmelse mellem modellen og mønsteret. Jeg følger nøjagtig mål og strikkefastheden og Ifølge mønstret bliver det en meget kort V udskæring men hvis vi ser på den viste model så er der en lang flot V udskæring. Indtagningen på modellen starter ved starten af et \"blad\" men ifølge mønstret starter indtagningen først halvt oppe på \"bladet\"! Ifølge mønstret går V hals helt til halsen. Håber på hurtig svar. Mvh Kate

Hej Kate, Jeg kan se hvad du mener. Forklaringen er nok at der ifølge diagrammet bliver en naturlig indtagning når man hopper et omslag over i siden mod V-halsen. Jeg kan spørge Design men du må ikke regne med at diagrammet bliver lavet om. :)Jeg mangler angivelser af symboler i alle felter under beskrivelsen af diagrammet
