How to work knit 1, purl 1 (in the round) – Nordic knitting style

In this DROPS video we show you how to work knit 1, purl 1, in the round using the Nordic knitting style. This textured pattern is called rib/ribbing and is one of many varieties.


BEFORE THE VIDEO STARTS:
The stitch count needs to be divisible by 2 so that all knitted stitches are above each other and all purled stitches are above each other. We have already worked a few centimeters of the ribbed pattern.

THE VIDEO SHOWS:
ROUND 1: Knit 1, purl 1, to end of round.
ROUND 2: The stitches are worked in the same way as the stitches below = knit above knit and purl above purl.

Repeat ROUND 2 onward.

Ik wil een trui breien en moet 240 steken opzetten, als beginner vraag ik mij af of het een idee zou zijn om voor 1r een kleur steekmarkeerder te gebruiken en voor 1av een ander, tot je boord af is want 240 steken… Ben zo bang fouten te maken en te moeten herbeginnen 😥

DROPS Design :

Dag Bien,

Begrijp ik het goed dat je dan 120 markeerders in kleur A en 120 markeerders in kleur B wilt plaatsen? Dat lijkt me best een werkje. Je kan ook het eerste stuk heel rustig breien en steeds even stopen om te kijken of het nog goed gaat. Na een paar toeren, zie je vanzelf het boordsteekpatroon ontstaan en brei je vaak automatisch wel goed.

Hi, Wanneer ik een boord brei zijn de rechte steken aan de goede kant niet zo mooi, ze vallen als het waren open. Terwijl aan de binnenkant van het werk de v’tjes wel mooi strak zijn. Ik heb andere naalden geprobeerd en combinatiebreien, maar het helpt niet. Zijn er nog andere dingen die ik kan proberen? Hartelijke groet, Fleur

Perché quando faccio il bordo di una maglia coste poi quando viene indossata la maglia tende a fare una gobba? È già la seconda maglia che mi fa questo difetto. Grazie

No hay patrones que no sean con agujas circulares?

DROPS Design :

Hola Carmen, muchos de nuestros patrones se trabajan con agujas circulares por mayor comodidad, sobre todo cuando se trabajan con muchos puntos. Sin embargo, en estos patrones puedes encontrar la siguiente lección:https://www.garnstudio.com/lesson.php?id=13&cid=23, que te ayudará a adaptar el patrón que quieras a agujas rectas.

How to work knit 1, purl 1 (back and forth) – Continental knitting style

In this DROPS video we show you how to work knit 1, purl 1, back and forth using the Continental knitting style. This textured pattern is called rib/ribbing and is one of many varieties. BEFORE THE VIDEO STARTS: The textured pattern stitches are divisible by 2. For the pattern to be symmetrical on both sides the stitch count needs to be divisible by 2 + 1 stitch. We have cast on with a stitch count divisible by 2 + 1 stitch and, in addition, 1 edge stitch on each side (the edge stitches are worked in garter stitch = knitted on all rows). We have already worked a few centimeters of the ribbed pattern. THE VIDEO SHOWS: ROW 1: Knit 1, purl 1 to end of row, with 1 edge stitch on each side. ROW 2: The stitches are worked in the same way as those below = knit above knit and purl above purl, with 1 edge stitch on each side. Repeat ROW 2 onward.

How to work a rib with Knit 2 – Purl 2 and Knit 2 twisted – Purl 2

In this DROPS video we show how you can work a rib. Working a rib gives an elastic piece that is great for cuffs and edges. Often worked with Knit 1 / Purl 1 or Knit 2 / Purl 2. It’s important that all knitted stitches comes above knitted stitches, and all purled stitches come above the purled stitches. First, we show a rib with Knit 2 / Purl 2, then a rib with Knit 2 twisted / Purl 2. To get the twisted stitch, knit the stitch in the back loop. We show both techniques on the same piece so that you can more easily see the difference. We use the yarn DROPS Snow in the video. You’ll find patterns with these technique by clicking on the pictures below.
