Bonjour Pourquoi au bout de quelques rangs le début n'est pas aligné par rapport au commencement Dans l'attente je vous remercie de votre compréhension

DROPS Design :

Bonjour Mme Eyssartier, un léger décalage est automatique, pour l'éviter, vous pouvez crocheter les ms en rond, en spirale (= mettez un marqueur dans la 1ère maille et ne terminez pas les tours par 1 mc, commencez le tour suivant par 1 ms dans la 1ère ms et décalez votre marqueur), ou bien crochetez alternativement sur l'endroit et sur l'envers en terminant chaque tour par 1 mc dans la 1ère m. Bon crochet!

Hekler etter oppskrift. Skal hekle 10 lm og sette i en ring. Jeg tror jeg gjør det som står, men km og lm på begynnelsen ser ut til å flytte seg så den blir skrått. Hva gjør jeg galt?

DROPS Design :

Hej Tiril, det er ikke sikkert at du gør noget galt, overgangen vil være lidt skrå når du sætter maskerne sammen. God fornøjelse!

Aber müsste es dann nicht heißen: mit einer kettmasche in die luftmasche die runde beenden?

Liebe Maria, das ist so formuliert, da die Luftmasche gleichzeitig die erste Masche ist.

How to crochet round and round without finishing each round

In this DROPS video we show how you can crochet round and round without finishing each round. We have already crocheted a chain stitches row and start the video how to form them into a ring with 1 slip stitch in the first chain stitch. Then work 2 chain stitches (replacing the first half-double crochet), 1 half-double crochet in each of the remaining chain stitches, 2 half-double crochets around the 2 chain stitches at the beginning of the round. Insert 1 marker-thread at the beginning of the round to show where it begins and work round and round without finishing each round. On round 2 work the first double crochet in the 2nd chain stitch from the beginning of first round, then work 1 double crochet in each half-double crochet. This round is not finished in the usual way, the first double crochet in next round is worked in the first double crochet from previous round. Then continue round and round with 1 double crochet in each double crochet. We use the yarn DROPS Snow in the video. You must read a pattern with this technique to be able to follow this video properly. You’ll find pattern by clicking on the pictures below.

How to work double crochet and get a straight line running down the beginning/ending of the rounds

In this DROPS video we show how to get a straight line running down the beginning/the end of the rounds. Work in the round alternately from the right and wrong side, turning the piece after each round. It you work round and round from the right side; the line at the beginning of the round is then slightly diagonal (see the sample patch on the right at the beginning of the video). We also work the piece in stripes and to get a neat transition when changing colours, we work the slip stitch at the end of the round in the new colour. Each round of double crochets begins with 3 chain stitches which do not replace the first double crochet. The rounds finish with 1 slip stitch in the 3rd chain stitch at the beginning of the round. We use the yarn DROPS Snow in the video. You’ll find patterns where you can use this technique by clicking on the pictures below.

Crochet sc (US)/ dc (UK) in the round

When you are crocheting sc's in the round you begin each round with 1 ch that replaces the first sc on this next round. To mark the beginning it is a good idea to use a scrap yarn to mark the 1st stitch on the round. Finish each round with 1 sl st in the chain from beg of round. Make sure to not work the sc that the ch was made in! Keep moving the marking thread for each round.

How to turn 1 strand into 3 from the same ball of yarn

In this DROPS video we how to make 3 strands out of 1 single strand from a ball of yarn. 1. Make a simple loop (like the loop worked when you begin any crochet project) and pull it to approx. 2-3 cm = ¾"-1⅛" in length. 2. Thread the strand from the skein through this loop, creating a new loop of approx. 40-50 cm = 15¾"-19¾". 3. Lay this loop alongside the working strand, so 1 strand becomes 3 strands. 4. Knit or crochet using these 3 strands until there is approx. 2 cm = ¾" left. Repeat points 2 to 4.

How to join 2 pieces, then bind off with I-cord

In this DROPS video we show you how to join 2 pieces together (A and B), then binding off with an I-cord. Place all the stitches from A and B on the same needle, so that every second stitch on the needle belongs to A and B. We bind off with I-cord as follows: - Cast on 3 stitches onto the right needle. Slip the 3 stitches from the right needle onto the left needle with the working strand now situated 3 stitches in on the left needle. - ROW 1 (= right side): Knit 2, knit 3 twisted together (i.e., 1 stitch from the front piece and 1 stitch from the back piece is decreased). Slip 3 stitches from the right needle back onto the left needle. Do not turn (working like this tightens the working strand so the piece forms a small tube). - Repeat ROW 1 until there are 3 stitches left. Bind off and fasten all strands.
