How to increase in English rib

In this DROPS video show how to increase with yarn overs in each side of piece knitted in English Rib.

The yarn over is worked into the pattern, and you will get an additional "rib stripe" in each side first after increasing 2 sts each side.

In our video we inc on row 1 and on 2nd row we show how to knit yo twisted (in back loop). On 5th row we inc again and on 6th row we knit yo twisted and also knit new sts into rib pattern. Finally you will see 2 new "rib stripes"in each side, which are 4 sts increased each side.

You must read the pattern to be able to follow. You’ll find patterns using this technique by clicking on the pictures below.

Hallo, wie funktioniert das Zunehmen beim Vollpatent in Runden z.B. am Ärmel? Gibt es dafür ein Video? Die Anleitung für Dorothea DROPS 160-27 verstehe ich leider nicht

DROPS Design :

Liebe Frau Roß, wenn man diese Zunahmen strickt, wird man beiseitig von der 1. Masche der Runde zunehmen, dh jede 2. Zunahmen wird das Patent nicht in Runden stimmen, aber nach der 2. Zunahmen, stimmt das Patentmuster in der Runde wieder. Viel Spaß beim stricken!

How to increase 4 stitches in Fisherman`s rib

In this DROPS video we show how we work 5 stitches in a Fisherman`s rib stitch (= knit in the stitch under the next stitch and increase 4 stitches). We show it twice in the video and work like this: Knit 1, but do not slip the stitch from the needle, * make 1 yarn over the right needle, knit the same stitch without slipping it off the left needle *, work from *-* a total of 2 times, then slip the stitch off the left needle = 5 stitches (4 stitches increased). We use the yarn DROPS Snow in the video. You must read a pattern with this technique and look at the charts to be able to follow this video properly.

How to increase and mark the increase stitches with stitch markers in English rib

In this DROPS video we show how to increase and mark the increase stitches with different colors, the same way we do in the «Cheers to Lift» jumper in DROPS 212-28. INCREASE AS FOLLOWS IN THE STITCHES WITH PURPLE MARKERS: Work 3 stitches in the stitch and yarn over and move the marker as follows: Knit together the yarn over and stitch, move the purple marker to this stitch (i.e. stitch on right needle), but do not slip the stitch and yarn-over off the left needle, make 1 yarn over the right needle and knit together the stitch and yarn over 1 more time = 3 stitches (= 2 stitches increased). The marker sits in the first increased stitch (= knitted stitch). The next time you increase, work in the stitch with the marker. INCREASE AS FOLLOWS IN THE STITCHES WITH GREEN MARKERS: Work 3 stitches in the stitch and yarn over and move the marker as follows: Knit together the yarn over and stitch, but do not slip the stitch and yarn-over off the left needle, make 1 yarn over the right needle and knit together the stitch and yarn over 1 more time and move the green marker to this stitch = 3 stitches (= 2 stitches increased). The marker sits in the last increased stitch (= knitted stitch). The next time you increase, work in the stitch with the marker. On the next round work the 3 stitches into the English rib pattern as follows: Make 1 yarn over, slip 1 stitch as if to purl, purl the yarn over, make 1 yarn over, slip 1 stitch as if to purl. This jumper is worked in DROPS Brushed Alpaca Silk and DROPS Glitter, but in the video we use DROPS Snow. You must read a pattern with this description to be able to follow this video properly.

How to knit in stitch below and how to increase 4 stitches in 1 stitch

In this DROPS video we show how to knit 1 stitch below next stitch and how to increase 4 stitches in 1 stitch. These charts are taken from DROPS 201-40, but the same technique is used in many other patterns. We start the video by showing how we work chart A.1 and then especially how we knit 1 stitch below next stitch and name it an English rib stitch. We show 1st round of A.1 4 times. On 2nd round of diagram purl all sts. When we work A.2 we show how to knit 5 stitches in the English rib stitch as follows: Knit 1, but wait to slip the stitch off the needle, * make 1 yarn over on right needle, knit same stitch without slipping the stitch off left needle *, work from *-* 2 times in total, then drop this stitch off left needle = 5 stitches (i.e. 4 stitches increased). Then we show how chart A.3 is worked. We use the yarn DROPS Snow in the video. This yarn is quite thick, but if you knit with a thinner yarn the increase in the English rib stitch will be better. You must read the pattern/chart explanation and look at the charts to be able to follow this video properly. You’ll find a pattern with this technique by clicking on one of the pictures below.

How to increase in false English rib

In this DROPS video we show how to increase in false fisherman rib and how to work after the increase, as used in the jumper in DROPS 197-2 and in the skirt in DROPS 196-37. We start by working 7 false fisherman rib stitches before we increase like this: Knit yarn over and knit stitch together but wait to slip the yarn over and worked stitch off the needle * make 1 yarn over on right needle and knit 1 more stitch in the stitch and yarn over worked*, work from *-* a total 2 times = 5 stitches (= 4 stitches increased). On next round, work the stitches into the false fisherman (like this: * 1 yarn over, slip 1 stitch on to right needle purlwise, purl 1 *, repeat * - * 1 more time, 1 yarn over, slip 1 stitch on to right needle purlwise ). Continue with false fisherman rib. Next round work false fisherman rib as follows: * Knit yarn over and knit stitch together, purl 1 *, repeat *-* the entire round. In this video we use the yarn DROPS Snow. You MUST read the pattern and look at the chart (if there is) to be able to follow this video properly.

How to increase in English rib by making several stitches in 1 stitch

In this DROPS video we show how to work the increase in English rib by making several stitches in 1 stitch, and how to work the next round. This technique is used in the jumper in DROPS 194-13. NB! Even if our sample is worked back and forth, all rows have been worked from RS. On 1st round in the video, we knit a little bit of the 3. Round explanation of the English rib, both before and after the increase. Increase like this: Work 5 stitches in the stitch and the yarn over as follows: * Knit the yarn over and stitch together, but wait with slipping the stitch and yarn over off the needle, make 1 yarn over the right needle *, knit from * - * a total of 2 times and knit the stitch and yarn over 1 more time = 5 stitches (= 4 stitches increased). On next round (= 2nd round of explanation of English rib), the increased works into the English rib pattern. There is no yarn over in the increase, so the stitch that is to be worked with the yarn over is knit without yarn over. Next round work as 3rd round of English rib. In this video we use the yarn DROPS Snow. You MUST read the pattern to be able to follow this video properly. You’ll find a pattern by clicking on one of the pictures below.
