Vidéo très explicite pour le tricot circulaire. Je suis confrontée à une vilaine démarcation dans mon ouvrage lorsque je veux passer du point envers au point endroit en début de rang ( ou de rond). Pouvez vous me guider SVP? Merci d'avance.

Bonjour Mme Péan, quand on tricote du point mousse en rond, on a souvent une petite démarcation, vous pouvez simplement serrer le fil à chaque transition des tours pour aligner le mieux possible la première et la dernière maille des tours. Bon tricot!

Boa tarde. Muito obrigada pela vossa resposta. Eu fiz o arremate com agulha mais grossa, como recomendam no modelo. Mesmo assim o ponto jarreteira enrola. Não sei o que é brocagem. Estive a ver no vosso dicionário e não encontrei. Como se faz? Muito obrigada

Bom dia, Bloquear uma peça é molhá-la, retirar o excesso de água e estendê-la na horizontal sobre uma superfície plana, Pode-se usar alfinetes para esticar ligeiramente a peça. Tricotou todas as carreiras em meia? Por norma, o ponto jarreteira não enrola depois do remate. Se fosse ponto meia, enrolava, mas ponto jarreteira, faz umas riscas em relevo que evitam que enrole. Pode dar-nos mais indicações de como está a tricotar o ponto jarreteira? Obrigado. Bom Tricô

Boa tarde Quando termino as camisolas em ponto jarreteira, este enrola. Não fica direito. O que fazer para que isso não aconteça? Obrigada

Bom dia: Deve usar uma agulha mais larga quando arrematar e bloquear a peça para que a orla não enrole. Bom tricô!

Rebonjour, Merci pour votre réponse. Donc je termine un rang endroit et je joins pour fermer le rang. Je continue toujours en maille endroit pour poursuivre le jersey en faisant les augmentations prévues dans mon modèle sur les tours endroit. Je me retrouve par contre avec l'envers vers moi et le côté endroit à l'intérieur du cercle. Est-ce normal?

DROPS Design :

Bonjour Marie, vous devez joindre votre ouvrage à la fin d'un rang sur l'endroit, si vous tricotez au point mousse, vous tricoterez en rond en commençant alors par 1 tour envers sur l'endroit et alternerez 1 tour envers, 1 tour endroit comme le montre la vidéo. Si vous tricotez du jersey, joignez votre tour à la fin d'un rang sur l'endroit (= après la dernière maille tricotée à l'endroit sur l'endroit, tricotez la 1ère maille du début du tour, de nouveau à l'endroit sur l'endroit). cette vidéo montre comment joindre 2 jambes de pantalon en rond, elle vous aidera peut être à visualiser comment faire sur du jersey. Bon tricot!

Bonjour, Après quelques rangs aller retour en Jersey je dois joindre en rond. Est-ce que je joins après mon rang endroit où mon rang envers pour pouvoir continuer en Jersey. Avez-vous un vidéo sur ce sujet Merci

DROPS Design :

Bonjour Marie, quand on tricote en rond, on tricote toujours (ou du moins la plupart du temps) sur l'endroit, ainsi, à la fin d'un rang sur l'endroit, vous allez joindre en rond en tricotant la 1ère maille du rang au lieu de tourner et de tricoter sur l'envers. Continuez ensuite ainsi en tricotant toujours sur l'endroit comme indiqué dans les explications. Bon tricot!

Funktioniert Kraus rechts auch mit verschränkt gestrickten Rechtsmaschen? Überlege wie ich Kraus gestrickten Rand so Stricken kann das die Mützen nicht das vom Kopf rutschen anfangen, wenn die Hosenmatze damit das Rennen anfangen🤔

Liebe Cornelia, meinen Sie kraus rechts stricken aber immer mit verschränkten rechten bzw linken Maschen?Also ja wahrscheinlich können Sie immer verschränkten Maschen stricken, eine gute Idee ist immer so eine Maschenprobe zu stricken, so sieht man genau wie es aussieht, und ob es uns gefällt :) Viel Spaß beim stricken!

How to knit a square in garter stitch

In this DROPS video we show how to knit a square in garter stitch. We have several designs based on knitted squares. This is how we knit the square in the video: Cast on 8 sts on double pointed needles. Distribute sts on 4 needles with 2 sts per needle. Knit a first round and at the same time insert a marker in the first stitch on every needle. Round 2: Knit the stitches with markers and purl remaining sts at the same time inc 1 st by making a yarn over on each side of each st with marker (= 8 inc per round). Round 3: Knit all sts, knit YO into back of loop to avoid holes. Repeat Round 2 and 3. You must read the pattern to be able to follow.

How to knit garter stitch over a few stitches in the round

In this DROPS video we show how you can knit garter stitch over a few stitches in the round. Sometimes the pattern says you to knit a number of rows in garter st on the middle sts with remaining sts in stockinette or pattern as before. This is how we do it when working in the round. The sts that are worked in garter are purled on every other round, and knitted on every other round, and the other sts are knitted on every round as before. You must read the pattern to be able to follow. You’ll find patterns where this technique is used by clicking on the pictures below.

How to knit from the center and out

In this DROPS video we show how you can knit from the center of the piece and out. Here we use DROPS 146-2 as an example, but several of our most popular patterns starts in the center of the piece with a few stitches and double pointed needles. It's a bit tricky to get started but gets easier and easier as you increase. Make sure to use markers to show where the increases are made. Keep increasing and work your way out. As the piece grows you continue with a longer and longer circular needle to fit all stitches. You must read the pattern and look at the chart to be able to follow.

How to cast on with the continental method

There are different methods to cast on. In this DROPS video we show one of the most common methods that gives a firm but still elastic edge. It’s called the continental method. The cast on should be firm but not too hard. If you feel it becomes too tight you can use larger needles or cast on around two needles and then pull one needle out afterwards. Remember to use the correct needles when starting your knitting. You must read the pattern to be able to follow.
