Merci! J'avais essayé d'en faire une selon la méthode de Debbie Bliss dans son livre "Guide pratique du Tricot", mais elle disait qu'il fallait faire une maille endroit, une maille envers sur la même maille, une autre endroit et une autre envers. Mais ce n'était pas très bien expliqué, alors merci de ces éclaircissements!
