Bonjour, Je réalise le top en taille S. J'arrive à 33 cm et je commence à suivre les grilles. On me dit A2 puis A1. Or, la grille A2 compte 9 mailles. J'arrive donc, ensuite, sur 2 mailles endroit, or, A1 commence par une maille envers... Dois-je suivre cette grille et décaler toutes mes côtes ou suivre les côtes comme elles se présentent ? Merci par avance

Hallo, wat betreft de rug staat gemeld dat je A4 en A5 op de goed kant in totaal 4 keer breidt in hoogte. Dan wwordt vermeld dat je voor een medium nog 88 steken over hebt omdat je er 16 minderde. Hier snap ik het niet. Per naald brei je 2x samen (in A4 en A5). Dus je minderd 2 steken dit 4 keer dan heb je toch maar 8 in totaal geminderd? Ik heb heb schema van A5 en A4 gevolgd of moet ik dit nogmaals herhalen?

Dag Valerie,
Je mindert 16 aan de ene kant en 16 aan de andere kant, dus je houdt (120-16-16=) 88 steken over.

Jeg vil gerne strikke den i Drops Muskat - hvordan skal jeg justere maskeantal mm? Den er str. S
27.06.2025 - 12:10DROPS Design answered:
Hei Tina. Toppen er strikket i DROPS Safran som tilhører garngruppe A, mens DROPS Muskat tilhører garngruppe B (tykkere garn enn garn i garngruppe A). Selv om man justerer maskeantallet er vil ikke resten av oppskriften stemme. Design avd. har dessverre ikke mulighet til å omskrive en allerede publisert oppskrift (maskeantall i bredden, i høyden, målene i målskissen og garnmengden vil ikke stemme ved å bruke et tynnere garn). mvh DROPS Design

Please am having problem with the part 1 the 5 stitch in garter .how many rib will I knit before the 7 and A6
27.01.2025 - 14:31DROPS Design answered:
Dear Rokky, right before this step you placed a marker in between the 2 middle stitches on the row. This marker is the middle of the row and helps make the chart symmetrical in the top. Start with 4 edge stitches then work rib until 7 stitches are left before the marker. For example, for the smallest size, you would have: 26 stitches, marker, 26 stitches. So you work 5 edge stitches and work 14 stitches in rib; then work A.6 (= 14 stitches). Then work 14 stitches in rib and work the last 5 edge stitches. For other sizes, you will need to work more stitches in rib in each side and ensure that A.6 is centered on the marker. Happy knitting!

Dear Mrs Shemesh Bunczlawer, when piece measures 33 cm work in the round as before following diagrams as described, then when A.2 and A.3 have been done 1 time in height, you will cast off for the armholes on the next round, cut the yarn at the end of this round and now continue each part separately back and forth on needle.Happy knitting!

Dear Sophia, I'm not sure what you mean here, the 5 first stitches in A.4 from RS and the last 5 sts in A.5 from RS will be knitted from RS and these stitches = first 5 sts in A.5 from WS and the last 5 sts in A.4 from WS will be kntted from WS = garter stitch. Can this help?

Hej Mona, du lukker af til ærmegab når arbejdet måler 34-35-36-37 cm, og da er du ikke færdig med A.2 og A.3. Hvis du har yderligere spørgsmål, så skriv hvilken størrelse du strikker :)

Knitted top in DROPS Safran. Piece is knitted bottom up with rib. Size: S - XXXL
DROPS 211-18 |
||||||||||||||||||||||
---------------------------------------------------------- EXPLANATION FOR THE PATTERN: ---------------------------------------------------------- GARTER STITCH (back and forth): Knit all rows. 1 ridge vertically = knit 2 rows. PATTERN: See diagrams A.1 to A.7. Choose diagram for your size (applies to A.2 and A.7). Diagrams show all rows in pattern seen from the right side. ---------------------------------------------------------- START THE PIECE HERE: ---------------------------------------------------------- TOP - SHORT OVERVIEW OF THE PIECE: Work body in the round on circular needle, from the bottom and up to armholes. Then work back piece and the 2 front pieces separately, back and forth on circular needle until finished measurements. Straps on front piece are fastened to back piece. BODY: Cast on 224-256-304-336 stitches on circular needle size 3 mm = US 2,5 with Safran. Work A.1 in the round – insert at the same time 1 marker thread at the beginning of round (= left side when garments is worn), and 1 marker thread after 112-128-152-168 stitches (= right side when garment is worn). Both marker threads is between 2 purl stitches. Move the marker thread upwards when working. REMEMBER THE KNITTING GAUGE! When piece measures 33-34-35-36 cm = 13"-13⅜"-13¾"-14¼", work next round as follows (approx. 1 cm = ⅜" remains until piece is divided mid front, and decrease for armholes): Work A.2 (= 9-9-13-13 stitches), continue A.1 over the next 42-50-58-66 stitches, work A.3 (= 10 stitches mid front), continue A.1 over the next 42-50-58-66 stitches), work A.2 over the next 18-18-26-26 stitches (= 2 repetitions of 9-9-13-13 stitches – marker thread is between these 2 repetitions), continue A.1 over the next 94-110-126-142 stitches (= back piece), and work A.2 over the remaining 9-9-13-13 stitches. Continue pattern like this until A.2 and A.3 have been worked vertically. On next round bind off for armholes, i.e. work next round as follows: Bind off 4-4-8-8 stitches for armhole, work 5 stitches in GARTER STITCH – read explanation above, continue A.1 over the next 42-50-58-66 stitches, work 10 stitches in garter stitch (= mid front), continue A.1 over the next 42-50-58-66 stitches, work 5 stitches in garter stitch, bind off 8-8-16-16 stitches for armhole, work 5 stitches in garter stitch, continue A.1 over the next 94-110-126-142 stitches, work 5 stitches in garter stitch, and bind off the remaining 4-4-8-8 stitches for armhole. Cut the yarn. Finish back piece and front pieces separately. BACK PIECE: = 104-120-136-152 stitches. Begin from wrong side and work 1 row in rib as before with 5 edge stitches in garter stitch in each side. Continue to work in rib with 5 edge stitches in garter stitch in each side while AT THE SAME TIME decreasing for armholes on every row from right side as explained below. I.e. work first row from right side as follows: Work A.4 (= 13 stitches), continue rib as before until 13 stitches remain on row, finish with A.5 (= 13 stitches). Continue pattern like this until A.4 and A.5 have been worked 4-4-5-6 times in total vertically (= 16-16-20-24 stitches decreased in each side) = 72-88-96-104 stitches remain. Work 3 ridges back and forth over all stitches. Bind off - make sure that the bind-off edge is not too tight. Back piece measures approx. 11-11-14-16 cm = 4⅜"-4⅜"-5½"-6¼" from where piece was divided for front piece and bac piece. FRONT PIECE: = 104-120-136-152 stitches. Divide the piece mid front and slip half the stitches on 1 stitch holder or extra needle. Then work first part as explained below. PART-1: = 52-60-68-76 stitches. Begin from wrong side and work 1 row in rib as before with 5 edge stitches in garter stitch in each side. Insert 1 marker between the 2 middle stitches on row (= between 2 knit stitch seen from right side). Marker indicates the middle. Continue to work in rib with 5 edge stitches in garter stitch in each side while at the same time decreasing on each side of the middle as explained below. I.e. work first row from right side as follows: 5 edge stitches in garter stitch, work rib as before until 7 stitches remain before marker, work A.6 (= 14 stitches), work rib as before until 5 stitches remain on row, and finish with 5 edge stitches in garter stitch. Continue pattern like this, and repeat A.6 vertically until 34 stitches remain on row – finish after 1 row from wrong side. Now work A.7 over these 34 stitches. When A.7 has been worked, 12-12-16-16 stitches remain on needle for strap, and front piece measures approx. 11-13-16-18 cm = 4⅜"-5⅛"-6¼"-7" from where piece was divided for front and back piece. Work strap as explained below. STRAP: = 12-12-16-16 stitches. Work in garter stitch back and forth until the strap measures approx. 10-12-10-10 cm = 4"-4¾"-4"-4" – try the top on and work to desired length, strap should continue over the shoulder and down to back piece. Bind off. PART-2: Slip the 52-60-68-76 stitches from stitch holder or extra needle back on circular needle size 3 mm = US 2,5, and work part-2 the same way as part-1. Then work strap the same way as on part-1. Bind off. ASSEMBLY: Fasten straps to back piece - begin at the edge in each side and sew stitch too stitch. Cut and fasten the thread. |
