Riktigt dåliga instruktioner. Trist att förklaringen är bristfällig. Saknas information och filmen är otydlig och rör sig fram och tillbaka. Tips: be någon granska ert material och provsticka enligt instruktionerna innan det publiceras.

Hej igen jeg strikker i str. L og starter mønster ud med 84 masker, og når første mønster pind er strikket, er der 92 masker, så må den måde skal der jo ikke tages ud på pind nr . 2 i mønstret . Det vil sige der i mønsteret tages ud på pind 1, 3 ,5 og 7 i mønsterhøjden er det ikke korrekt? Det er på den måde lidt misvisende at skrive, at der tages ud på hver anden pind, tænker jeg

DROPS Design :

Hei Lena. Når det tas ut på 1. pinne som det vises i diagrammet og det står at man skal øke på annenhver pinne, vil neste uttagning bli på 3. pinne. Viktig at man ikke blander pinne nr. 2 med annenhver pinne. mvh DROPS Design

Hej når der skal tages henholdsvis 8 og 16 masker ud på hver anden omgang , skal udtagningen være på en bestemt maske, eller bliver det bare ligeligt fordelt? Det er svært at se / få passet ind i mønsteret, synes ikke det passer med maskeantallet.

DROPS Design :

Hei Lena. Når du strikker etter diagram A. 1 og A.3 ser du hvor det skal økes. Husk å strikk kastene slik det er beskrevet under Diagram, noen kast skal strikkes rett på neste omgang slik at det blir et hull (som danner et hullmønster), mens noen kast skal strikkes vridd rett, slik at det ikke blir hull. mvh DROPS Design

Ville sticka tröja modell vs010. Mönster har jag arbetat med 3 hela arbetsdagar dragit upp, gjort om flera gånger men det var det mest djävulska jag varit med om. Bilderna var dåliga. mönstret var alldeles för smått, fick rita om allt med hjälp av färger på större rutor. Jag har i alla fall varit textillärare och stickat i över 50 år. Blir nog aldrig mer ett Drops mönster

In this DROPS video we show how to work 4 different chart icons. We mark the icons pink before knitting/purling. We work 2 stitches in each side in garter stitch.

Chart icon 2: Between 2 stitches make 2 yarn overs; on the next row (wrong side) purl the first yarn over twisted (i.e. the yarn over towards the middle of the diagram); the second yarn over is purled (i.e. the yarn over towards the side) (= 2 stitches increased). Chart icon 3: between 2 stitches make 2 yarn overs; on the next row (wrong side) purl the first yarn over (i.e. the yarn over towards the side), the second yarn over is purled twisted (i.e. yarn over towards the middle of the diagram) (= 2 stitches increased).
