Ich bin gerade bei A.1. Ich habe 12 Maschen + 2 RM. Das Muster hat jedoch 13 Maschen, sodass ich ja 15 M bräuchte um das Muster hinzubekommen. Habe ich einen Denkfehler ?

Liebe Doreen, in A.1 Größe 38/39 + 40/42 wird A.1 über 12 M gestrickt, aber bei der 1. Reihe gibt es (wegen Umschläge) 3 Maschen mehr = 15 Maschen, bei der 3. Reihe werden diesen Umschläge "abgenommen", und 12 Maschen sind jetzt übrig. Viel Spaß beim stricken!

I've played the video over and over stopping every second to try and figure out how you are knitting A-1 and the loopy thingy. The knitter is too fast and the video is not clear. Is there some written instructions or a name for that stitch so I can figure out how to knit this?

Dear Mrs Layke, this video is showing how to knit the small cables over 3 sts (= 3 repeats in A.1 with P1/P2 in between - see size) - and read more here about diagrams. Happy knitting!

How to knit a sock with a square heel

In this DROPS video, we show you how to knit a sock with a square heel. The stitches on top of the foot are placed on a thread, while the stitches at the back are kept on the needles and the heel is worked as follows (the heel extends under the foot): 1) The heel is worked back and forth across the heel-stitches to achieve the correct height. For this type of heel, the length reaches midway under the heel. 2) Next, the heel is knitted together beneath the foot. 3) The sock is then continued in the round, with stitches picked up along both sides of the heel length, working towards the toe. 4) This heel creates a square shape, which is why this type of heel is known as a square heel.

How to knit a sock with a gusset heel – short overview

In this DROPS video, we show you how to knit a sock with a gusset heel - arguably the most common method for working a heel. To begin, the stitches on top of the foot are placed on a thread, while the stitches at the back are kept on the needles and the heel is worked as follows: 1) The heel is first worked in height, back and forth across the heel-stitches. 2) Next, the bottom of the heel is worked to the required width and length by working short rows and decreasing stitches. 3) Once this step is completed, continue knitting in the round across all stitches, knitting up stitches on both sides of the heel (along the length). 4) The width and shape of the foot is worked by decreasing stitches on both sides, forming a small gusset heel – that is why this type of heel is known as a gusset heel.

In this DROPS video we show how to work the “Carrot Squash” slippers in DROPS 203-37. We have already cast on stitches for size 35/37 = US 4.5/6.5 and start the video by showing round 1 (only Knit). Then the rib, K1, P1. After the rib put 31 stitches on a stitch holder, work the other stitches back and forth. Then work these stitches, the new pickup stitches along the sides and the stitches from the stitch holder, and work around again. Decrease stitches and work around to finish measurement, bind off and fold the slipper and sew under foot in the outermost loop of the outermost stitch. These slippers are worked in DROPS Snow, the same yarn we use in the video. You must read the pattern to be able to follow this video properly.
