EXPLANATION FOR THE PATTERN:
-------------------------------------------------------
GARTER STITCH (back and forth):
Knit all rows.
DECREASE TIP (evenly):
To calculate how to decrease evenly, use the total number of stitches on row (e.g. 89 stitches) and divide stitches by number of decreases to be done (e.g. 15) = 5.9. In this example work approx. every 5th and 6th stitch together.

VEST - SHORT OVERVIEW OF THE PIECE:

Hej! Det ser ud til der mangler tekst forklaringen til rygstykket, efter delen om ærmegab står der: "Strik videre til arbejdet måler 44-46-48-50-52-54 cm (der er ca 4 cm tilbage til færdigt mål)." Burde det være 10 cm mere end det var for forstykket? Så der er ca 20-20-22-22-24-24 cm tilbage? På forhånd tak. Mvh, Helena

Hei Helena. Bakstykket er 4 cm lengre enn forstykket. Disse 4 cm strikkes i begynnelsen (vrangborden = 14 cm). På forstykket felles det til hals ca 10-14 cm før ferdig mål, men på bakstykket felles det til hals når det er ca 4 cm igjen. mvh DROPS Design

05.04.2022 kl. 19:12Buonasera, mia nipote vorrebbe che le realizzassi questo modello color blu reale 108, a quale colore kid-silk potrei abbinarlo? Grazie Gabriella
06.01.2022 - 16:10DROPS Design answered:
Buongiorno Gabriella, potrebbe utilizzare il colore kid-silk n° 39 blu tempesta oppure n° 08 blu ghiaccio; in ogni caso può chiedere al suo rivenditore delle foto degli abbinamenti per poter decidere meglio. Buon lavoro!
08.01.2022 kl. 13:17Hermoso modelo!,,
17.06.2021 - 21:33Det står i oppskrift at første pinne på bråtet skal strikkes rett? Er det noken grunn til dette, eller kan ein strikke de den med en rett og en vrang slik som resten?
01.05.2021 - 09:33DROPS Design answered:
Hei Monika, Vi foreslår en pinne rett for å lage en smal kant, men du kan gjerne begynne med vrangbord med en gang hvis du vil. God fornøyelse!

14.04.2021 kl. 11:29Bonjour J aimerais faire ce modèle avec de la laine Lima es possible ?faut il rajouter une laine supplémentaire ? Merci de votre aide cordialement
10.02.2021 - 15:52DROPS Design answered:
Bonjour Mme Brugere, on tricote ici avec 2 fils du groupe A (Fabel et Kid-Silk) que l'on peut remplacer par 1 fil du groupe C (Nepal par ex, qui a la même composition que Lima), mais pas vraiment Lima qui est du groupe B, avec la même tension, vous obtiendrez une texture beaucoup plus souple - peut être en ajoutant 1 fil Kid-Silk, vous auriez la même tension que pour ce modèle - N'hésitez pas à demander conseil à votre magasin, même par mail ou téléphone, vous pourrez vous faire assister au choix d'une laine/couleur. Bon tricot!
