How to close the seam under raglan sleeve (Kitchener sts, grafting, weaving)
Tags: grafting stitches, jackets, jumpers, raglan,
In this DROPS video we show two ways of sewing together the hole under sleeves on a jumper/jacket with raglan.
First, we show how to sew together so we get an invisible seam. Remember not to tighten the thread and sew from RS. Stitches should be same size as the knitted stitches. At thicker yarn it avoids that it becomes a thick seam on the back.
Then we show how to sew together by sewing together the seam in the inner loops of edge sts. You get a thicker stitching on the outside, but it will not show up when it comes under arm.
You must read the pattern to be able to follow. You’ll find patterns by clicking on the picture below.
The video above can be used in the following patterns

Logoen i videoen gjør det vanskelig og se hva hun gjør.

Men må man syns den sammen? Kan man ikke bare strikke den sammen fra starten av? Eller?

Merci encore ! La vidéo s'affiche aujourd'hui sans changement sur l'ordi, c'était un bug passager en effet.

Bonjour, Je n'arrive pas à accéder à cette vidéo, alors qu'il n'y a pas de problème pour lire les autres que j'ai essayées... et qui sont très pédagogiques. Un grand bravo donc pour tout ce travail, mais auriez-vous une explication à ce mystère ? Merci par avance.

Merci pour cette très bonne vidéo. Un zoom avant aurait été le bienvenu pour mieux voir ces gestes très précis. Bonne journée.

Un consiglio: quando fate i video cercate di mettere la scritta del sito in un punto in cui non impedisce la visione totale del lavoro. Meglio metterlo su un lato, per altro ideo ottimo. Grazie.
