How to work row 21 and 22 in the shawl in DROPS 203-13
In this video we show how to work row 21 and 22 in the charts A.1A, A.2, A.3 and A.4A. Special for this row is who to increase 4 stitches in 1 stitches and how to work 8 stitches together.
How to work 4 stitches in 1 stitch = work 5 stitches in the knitted stitch and yarn over as follows: Knit the yarn over and knitted stitch together, but do not slip them off the needle, *make 1 yarn over the right needle and knit the stitch and yarn over together without slipping them from the needle*, work from *-* a total of 2 times = 5 stitches (i.e. 4 stitches increased).
How to decrease 8 stitches together = work 5 stitches and 3 yarn overs together as follows (= a total of 8 stitches): Slip the first 3 stitches and 2 yarn overs onto the right needle as if to knit together, knit the next 2 stitches and 1 yarn over together, pass the 5 slipped stitches (including yarn overs) on the right needle over the knitted together stitches (i.e. 4 stitches decreased)
This shawl is worked in DROPS Alpaca and DROPS Delight, but in the video we use a thicker yarn; DROPS Nepal.
