Hej! Bra video! Jag undrar om man skulle vilja göra valfri längd eller om man använder tunnare garn när man virkar detta mönster runt , hur är mönstret delbart dvs hur många maskor ska man lägga upp "per stjärna" så det går jämt ut? Här har man startat med 25 lm. Hoppas ni förstår min fråga.

DROPS Design :

Hej Sophia, du får 12 stjärnor i det här mönstret. Klicka också gärna på bilderna med samma mönster under videoen :)

Très déçue de la vidéo et des explications. Ça fait des semaines que je me casse la tête à comprendre pourquoi je ne suis pas fichu de crocheter mes chaussettes Sweet Spirited et enfin j'ai compris en allant voir un autre vidéo sur internet. Le point d'étoiles se fait sur un nombre pair de mailles + 3 ml. Et le deuxième rang d'étoiles 1 ml pour commencer le rang suffit!!

Hej! Jag har virkat runt runt, enligt instruktionerna, men ändå blir skarven längst bak lite sned. Stjärnorna kommer liksom inte rakt ovanpå varandra. Jag kan inte komma på vad som är fel, har ni några tips?

DROPS Design :

Hej Amanda, kan det være fordi du starter stjernen i en maske tidligere end hvad vi gør?

How to crochet slip stitch around double crochet stitches

In this DROPS video, we show how we crochet slip stitches around double crochet stitches, so that a nice thick edge is formed.

The slip stitches must not be crocheted too tight. We use the yarn DROPS Snow in the video. You must read a pattern with this technique to be able to follow this video properly.
