Question: comment effectuer des diminutions lorsque que l'on arrive aux emmanchures et ce dans le point Catherine Wheel ?

DROPS Design :

Bonjour Mme Lozet, nous n'avons pas de modèle correspondant à ce motif, il vous faudra expérimenter sur votre échantillon comment procéder en fonction de votre nombre de mailles sur le rang, le nombre de diminutions à faire, votre tension etc... Bon crochet!
