Hilfe! ich stricke GENAU nach Anleitung und GENAU nach dem Video aber bei mir entsteht KEINE schräge Masche zwischen dem Musterteil und dem glatt gestrickten Teil. Wie kann das seon??????

DROPS Design :

Liebe Frau Bonelli, das Musterteil wird erst nach der Reihe mit dem Pfeil verschoben sein; man wird immer weniger Maschen im Lochmuster stricken (= 3 m rechts zusammne) und dann durch die 2 Umschläge nach der Abnahmen das glatt rechts gestrickte Teil zunehmen (währen das Teil mit Lochmuster abnimmt). Hoffentlich kann es Ihnen helfen. Viel Spaß beim stricken!

Det er en setning jeg ikke forstår i oppskriften: "Etter 1.omg i A2 er det nå 2m mindre på forstykket enn på bakstykket." Når man gjentar A2 tre ganger så blir det jo 6 m mindre på forstykket? Håper på raskt svar på dette. Mvh AG

Ma che punto è quella cosa complicatissima contrassegnata con la stellina? Un semplice rovescio??

29.06.2015 - 14:54

DROPS Design :

Buonasera Valentina. La m indicata con la stellina viene lavorata a rov sul diritto del lavoro, e a dir sul rovescio del lavoro. Deve risultare una maglia rasata rovescio. Buon lavoro!

Question sto lavorando il modello e sono arrivata alle calature delle maniche ma il diagramma 2 mi finisce qui invece di continuare come dice la spiegazione dopo 6 cm dopo le calature .cosa ho sbagliato , grazie 0

DROPS Design :

Buongiorno Maria. Molto probabilmente non c’è nessun errore nell’esecuzione. Verifichi solo che la sua tensione in verticale sia uguale a quella indicata nelle spiegazioni del modello. Buon lavoro!

On A-2 chart for Bris row 28 from bottom, does it mean to purl all stitches over to where the row below has the knit 3 together yarn over knit and yarn over knit, then knit all the way around?

02.03.2015 - 02:27

DROPS Design :

Dear Mrs Savor, you will purl the 8 sts before all K sts and the sts before the P8 in pattern as before. Happy knitting!

Where can I get the written script of the video for reading chart 2? Do I understand it correctly that you start A-2 at arrow which is row 9 from bottom?

24.02.2015 - 15:01

DROPS Design :

Dear Mrs Savor, you can find diagram text under pattern 161-28 - and you are correct, you start A.2 at the arrow (= row 9 from bottom). Happy knitting!
