Wave edge – knitted

When working top down so that you end your piece at the edge, then you can end with a romantic ruffled wave edge, also a nice addition when working shawls from center and out. In this DROPS Video we show how to do so.

When you have reached desired measure work like this:
* K 1, 1 YO, repeat from * across, end row with K 1. Repeat this row one more time. Bind off.

Our videos do not have sound. We are a worldwide company and our videos are watched by people speaking endless of different languages and many do not understand English. So since there is not a given language for us to use, we instead have written instructions to accompany the video, and then there is no sound to disturb while watching.

Finns det något sätt att börja med en volangkant om man ska göra en vanlig rektangulär sjal, om man vill ha volanger i båda ändarna?

Bonjour, Merci pour votre réponse. Mais si on tricote la chaussette de haut en bas comment on pratique ?

21.01.2021 - 09:49

DROPS Design :

Bonjour Mounett, vous pouvez essayer de relever les mailles tout autour de la tige de la chaussette (quand elle est terminée), et ainsi, vous tricoterez la bordure de bas en haut. Bon tricot!

Bonjour, Comment faire pour démarrer un tricot avec cette même technique, pour une tige de soquette par exemple ?

DROPS Design :

Bonjour Mounett, pour des chaussettes tricotées de bas en haut, tricotez le 1er rang de la même façon, et tricotez le 2ème tour à l'envers (= point mousse) avec des jetés comme dans la vidéo, et rabattez au tour suivant. Bon tricot!
