Cast on - continental method
The cast on should be firm but not too hard. If you feel it becomes too tight you can use larger needles or cast on around two needles and then pull one needle out afterwards. Remember to use the correct needles when starting your knitting.

Pour l’écharpe côté gauche, j’ai du mal à comprendre le départ. Monter les 30 mailles = rang 0 Rang 1 sur l’envers on reste avec les 30 mailles. Rang 2 sur l’endroit, les 2 mailles en attente sont à prendre sur le milieu du dos ? Comment tricoter 3 mailles ensemble si 2 sont sur l’aiguille de gauche et les 30 autres sur l’aiguille de droite ?

Bonjour Cora V, pouvez-vous poser la question sur le modèle que vous tricotez ou bien nous indiquer de quel modèle il s'agit? Ce sera ainsi plus facile pour nous de vous répondre après vérification des explications. Merci pour votre compréhension.

26.08.2022 - 10:21When you cast on this way is your next row of knitting a right or wrong side

Dear Julia, unless otherwise stated, the first (after cast-on) row would be from the right side. Lately, some patterns start from the wrong side but it's always indicated in the pattern. The side of the next row is independent of the cast on method you use. Happy knitting!

10.11.2021 - 22:44Hej. Jeg har nu prøvet at slå op som I beskriver i jeres standard slå op video og hvis jeg følger den så passer det ikke med den video om at undgå et hak i starten af et arbejde når man strikker rundt. I den video er tråden der hænger fast i garnnøglet den der sidder forrest og kan strammes til modsat den anden video. Er det ligegyldigt? Vh Helle

Hei Helle. Denne videoen viser hvordan du legger opp med den kontinental metoden med 13 masker. Om du bruker denne metoden og skal strikke rundt og unngå hak i starten vil begge trådendene være i overgangen og du bruker begge trådenenden å strammer trådene etter å ha flyttet den løfte masken tilbake til venstre pinne. mvh DROPS design

Buongiorno Caterina, per sapere quanto filato usare per l'avvio può considerare 3 volte la lunghezza dell'avvio finito oppure avviare 10 maglie e calcolare quanto filato ha utilizzato. Buon lavoro!

20.02.2021 - 19:05Et godt fif, da jeg selv er totalt nybegynder. Slå maskerne op med begge strikkepinde, og pil den ene ud, når de er slået op. Mine bliver nemlig meget stramme og med 2 pinde, får de en flot finish :-)
