Dropped stitches aka elongated sts - different lengths
Keywords: dropped stitch,
Patterns with dropped stitches/elongated stitches with different lengths are very popular.
In this video we show how to work dropped with 1 yo and then with 2 yo's to get different lengths on the dropped sts.
We have already worked 1 repeat of each to clearly show the difference.
row 1 is worked alternately K1, 1 YO across.
row 2; K1, slip yo off needle, repeat across.
row 3: worked alternately K1, 2 YO's across.
row 4: K1, slip both yo's off needle, repeat across.
Now it's clearly showing how long the sts will be first with 1 yo, and then with 2 yo's.
To see a pattern with this technique, see: DROPS 146-20 or one of the picture to the left.
The video above can be used in the following patterns

Se puede hacer este punto con agujas circulares? Como?

Hola Anna, para agujas circulares harías exactamente lo mismo que hacen aquí. No hay ninguna diferencia. La única diferencia entre ambas agujas es que tienes espacio para más puntos en la aguja circular. 25.06.2023 - 16:06Barb wrote:
I'm working on a sweater in drop stitch and at the neckline I have to decrease each row by 1 stitch and I just can't visualize how to do that on a drop stitch /YO row. Any advice? Thanks!

Dear Barb, maybe you could tell us which pattern you are working on or ask your question under the pattern you are working so that we can check together and help you further. Thanks for your comprehension. Happy knitting! 25.10.2022 - 09:23Sandy wrote:
