In the Marigold Dream Blanket Pattern 46-6 the middle section says "knit yarn over twisted." Ordinarily, I would do that by knitting in the back loop of the YO, but the related video shows a much more complicated series of movements in Continental style and I cannot understand how to do for English knitting. 1.) Which of the methods is intended for the stitch in the Row 2 of the middle section/Row 2 for this blanket; and 2.) please give written instructions for the video section .59 - 1.24.

Dear Mrs Hoheim, to knit the yarn over twisted, work the back loop of yarn over, follow the move of the yarn at the needle/stitches rather than on the fingers, this can help as there are different ways to work/take the yarn etc... Happy knitting!

I just want to make a yarn over from a knit to a purl. When you do this it does not make you an extra stitch. Could you explain or do a video.

Dear Idella, could you specify which kind of stitch you are working? When you make a yarn over, you create a new stitch, which will leave a bigger or smaller hole depending on how you work it on the next row, as shown in the video. If you want to make 2 stitches from 1 yarn over (1 knit and 1 purl stitch) you need to work 1 normal stitch, for example a knit stitch and the purl stitch needs to be worked as a twisted stitch. Happy knitting!

Stickar 237-13. Mina hål syns knappt. Hur gör jag för att få större hål när jag stickar på rundstickor? Ser att jag gjort omslaget omvänt jämfört med filmen, jag tar stickan under tråden och i filen gör ni omslaget över tråden.

Hei Anna. Husk at på neste omgang må du strikke kastet i fremre maskebue, slik at det blir hull. Strikker du i bakre maskebue vil hullet bli mye mindre. mvh DROPS Design

Hej, Jag stickar ”Sticks and Stones ” i str 11/12 år. Jag har precis ökar med 1 m på var sida av raglan = 8 m totalt. Vidare står det att jag ska upprepa ökningen på varje v 5 ggr och totalt 6 ggr. Ska jag fortsätta göra denna ökning vid raglan även om det blir ojämnt? Mvh Sofia

Hei Sofia. Litt usikker på hva du mener med ojämnt. Du øker alltid 1 maske før merket og 1 maske etter merket, slik at du vil få en markant raglanslinje 4 steder på genseren. Se hjelpevideoen: Hur man stickar en tröja uppifrån och ner (selv om det gjøres økning 2 masker før/etter merket, brukes det samme teknikk). mvh DROPS Design

Merci pour votre réponse. Je vois que plusieurs autres personnes sont désorientées par la méthode de tricot. C'est déjà bien d'avoir des videos mais peut-être que montrer les deux méthodes comme le font certaines tricoteuses que je suis allé voir pour avoir ma.réponse ça serait mieux. Merci Cordialement

Désolée. J'ai mis le.commentaire sous une vidéo montrant comment augmenter avec des jetés. Mais je ne comprends pas comment les tricoter ensuite sur envers. Je tricote à la française et la vidéo montre la méthode continentale

Bonjour Giova, la façon de tricoter la maille reste la même quelle que soit la main avec laquelle vous tenez le fil, autrement dit, regardez la pointe de l'aiguille et non la main qui tient le fil et tricotez le jeté dans le brin avant pour former un jour ou bien dans le brin arrière pour éviter un trou. Bon tricot!

Bonjour Mme Giova, pour mieux comprendre votre question, peut-être pouvez-vous nous indiquer quel modèle vous tricotez et ce qui vous pose problème? Merci pour votre compréhension.

Please help! Killian Jacket DROPS 18-25 say s'increase 1st on each side of stitch with marker by making 1YO.' So does this mean that I am actually increasing 2 stitches each time on every other row? I am about to cast off the right half but I think I've increased by too many stitches, as the front piece looks too long when compared with the diagram! I wish the pattern had a stitch count at regular points in the pattern, so that this could be checked. Please can you help? Many thanks

Dear Billie, yes, the increases are correct. If you are working the smallest size, you should have 89 stitches right before the increases. After increasing 2 stitches on every 2nd row 38 times, you should have 165 stitches (=89+38*2). Now, you work the back piece over the last 60 stitches and leave 105 stitches for the front piece. Out of these 105 stitches, the 9 stitches closest towards the back piece are left in the stitch holder and used for the neckline later. The remaining 96 stitches are worked on the front piece, where you will bind off 6 stitches and then work the buttonholes. After this, you have 90 stitches left in the front piece. Happy knitting!

Buongiorno, sto cercando di lavorare il cardigan Spill the beans. Sono arrivata al diagramma A1 e non capisco il simbolo col quadratino nero. Cosa significa? Devo lavorare a dritto quel simbolo? Grazie della risposta

Several of our most popular patterns (example 146-2, 148-1, 126-1, 150-11) starts in the center of the piece with a few stitches and double pointed needles. It's a bit tricky to get started but gets easier and easier as you increase. Make sure to use markers to show where the increases are made. Keep increasing and work your way out. As the piece grows you continue with a longer and longer circular needle to fit all stitches. In this DROPS Video we show an example from pattern 146-2 on how to do so. REMEMBER - you will also need to read the pattern to be able to follow. To see a pattern with this technique, go to: DROPS 146-2

Les personnes qui tricotent ne se sont pas toutes converties au style continental. Pouvez-vous nous fournir une version de votre vidéo pour celles qui tricotent en style anglais. Ce serait vraiment apprécié.
