Dag Astrid Lafouer,

Er is helaas niet specifiek over het hoedje een video. Wel staan er bij dat patroon video's van de gebruikte steken en technieken.

Hallo, Ik kan toer 6 niet volgen, ik kan ook geen filmpje bekijken op mijn i-pad omdat het een afwijkend formaat is. Kunt u misschien een tekening sturen van de steken van toer 7,7,8? Dan kan ik weer verder, ik ben een beetje dyslectisch Al vast bedankt..

Misschien een foutje in de beschrijving? De tweede zin zegt: "Haak 3 keer in dezelfde steek..." Maar op de video zie je, dat er niet in dezelfde, maar in steeds een volgende steek wordt gehaakt. Overigens, veel dank voor de geweldig informatieve video's! Ik leer er veel van.
