I am a fairly experienced knitter, but. I find your video on the little red riding slippers a bit difficult to follow. It goes too fast and I have no sound. After you pick up the stitches do you divide the stitches evenly over the 4 needles? How do you then decide where the toe and heel are. I have tried this stage two or three times and getting frustrated.

DROPS Design :

Dear Mrs MacDonald, the toe is towards the middle part worked back and forth previously, so that the middle of toe is the middle of this part - the heel is in the middle of sts you put aside and knit up later. You should have same number of sts on each side of both markers. Happy knitting!

Je manque d'information quant aux nombres de fois que l' on diminue de chaque côté des marqueurs Manque de précisions quand aux nombres de mailles tricotées pour poser les deux marqueurs car en respectant votre vidéo mon marqueur dos se trouve sur le côté du chausson

07.03.2017 - 22:33

DROPS Design :

Bonjour Dinou, vos marqueurs doivent être l'un au milieu devant (= côté pointe) et l'autre au milieu dos (= côté talon) et ne doivent pas être décalés; vous diminuez 1 m de chaque côté de chaque marqueur (les marqueurs restent en place) tous les 2 tours jusqu'à la hauteur indiquée (le nombre de rangs/diminutions va dépendre de votre tension en hauteur). Bon tricot!

Bonjour Mme Charest, quand vous tricotez la torsade, lisez les rangs sur l'endroit de droite à gauche et les rangs sur l'envers de gauche à droite. Bon tricot!

I am unable to hear your videos, is there something I need to do to hear them? also how many balls of yarn do I need for 300 g 6 if there are 50g? thank you Susan

19.10.2016 - 21:39

DROPS Design :

Hi Susan. Eskimo is 50 gr per ball, so you need 6 if you need a total of 300 gr. We are a worldwide company and our videos are watched by people around the world, speaking different languages, many of whom do not understand English. We have therefore written instructions to accompany this video, and there is no sound to disturb while watching. Enjoy!

I have never seen knitting like this. Usually the yarn is in the right hand and twirled around the little finger. What style is this?

17.10.2016 - 17:52

DROPS Design :

Dear Linda, working with the yarn in the left hand is called "continental method" - see video below. Happy knitting!

How to knit a sock with a square heel

In this DROPS video, we show you how to knit a sock with a square heel. The stitches on top of the foot are placed on a thread, while the stitches at the back are kept on the needles and the heel is worked as follows (the heel extends under the foot): 1) The heel is worked back and forth across the heel-stitches to achieve the correct height. For this type of heel, the length reaches midway under the heel. 2) Next, the heel is knitted together beneath the foot. 3) The sock is then continued in the round, with stitches picked up along both sides of the heel length, working towards the toe. 4) This heel creates a square shape, which is why this type of heel is known as a square heel.

How to knit a sock with a gusset heel – short overview

In this DROPS video, we show you how to knit a sock with a gusset heel - arguably the most common method for working a heel. To begin, the stitches on top of the foot are placed on a thread, while the stitches at the back are kept on the needles and the heel is worked as follows: 1) The heel is first worked in height, back and forth across the heel-stitches. 2) Next, the bottom of the heel is worked to the required width and length by working short rows and decreasing stitches. 3) Once this step is completed, continue knitting in the round across all stitches, knitting up stitches on both sides of the heel (along the length). 4) The width and shape of the foot is worked by decreasing stitches on both sides, forming a small gusset heel – that is why this type of heel is known as a gusset heel.

How to start a sock with a flounce

In this DROPS video we show how to start a sock with a flounce, like the “Dainty Duo” socks in DROPS 229-19. We cast on with 2 strands, but continue with 1 strand. Then we knit 4 rounds and on the next round we knit all stitches together 2 by 2. Then we work a rib (knit 1 twisted/purl 1). These socks are worked in DROPS Fabel, but in the video, we work with a thicker yarn; DROPS Snow. You must read a pattern with this technique to be able to follow this video properly.

How to work the slippers in DROPS 203-37

In this DROPS video we show how to work the “Carrot Squash” slippers in DROPS 203-37. We have already cast on stitches for size 35/37 = US 4.5/6.5 and start the video by showing round 1 (only Knit). Then the rib, K1, P1. After the rib put 31 stitches on a stitch holder, work the other stitches back and forth. Then work these stitches, the new pickup stitches along the sides and the stitches from the stitch holder, and work around again. Decrease stitches and work around to finish measurement, bind off and fold the slipper and sew under foot in the outermost loop of the outermost stitch. These slippers are worked in DROPS Snow, the same yarn we use in the video. You must read the pattern to be able to follow this video properly.
