Je veux terminer un bonnet en rond avec des mailles anglaises bicolores mais j’ai des problèmes avec les diminutions. La laine de couleur fait les diminutions et la laine contrastante (l’autre laine) fait quoi? Je m’arrache les cheveux avec ce problème. Je crois que je vais abandonner. J’adore vos vidéo que je regarde sans me lasser. Merci de votre attention.

Bonjour Francine, quand on tricote des côtes anglaises bicolores, on tricote alternativement avec une couleur puis avec l'autre (voir vidéo; on va diminuer ainsi comme indiqué en fonction du modèle, peut-être pouvez-vous nous indiquer le numéro du modèle pour que nous regardions ensemble. Bon tricot!
