In this DROPS video we show how to decrease by knit 5 stitches twisted together. K 5 twisted tog as follows: K 5, pass next to last st worked over the last so that this st is around the last st, repeat until all 4 sts have been passed over (= 4 sts dec). REMEMBER - you will also need to read the pattern to be able to follow. To see a pattern with this technique, go to:
DROPS 161-30
or DROPS 161-31
The video above can be used in the following patterns

Following the instructions to knit the first row after inserting the markers, A1's first row, where you have 4 times yon between 2 stitches, cause me to have 4 extra stitches after the first 'pattern' row. Please advise? Pattern is ai-014-bn

Dear Mrs Du Plessis, correct, the first row of A.1 is worked over 17 sts + 4 yarn overs = 21 sts that will be worked on 2nd row with : P2, K17, P2, then on 3rd row work the lace pattern: P2, P5 tog, (yo, K1)x7, YO, K5 twisted tog, P2 (you decrease 4 sts twice and make 8 yarn overs = the number of sts is still 21 sts). After A.1 is done, start A.2 and repeat A.2 in height. A.1 will be worked only one time. Happy knitting! 12.10.2023 - 09:25

Op het instructie filmpje worden de vijf steken niet terug gezet. Op de linkernaald. Misschien een nieuw instructie filmpje maken. Want dit werkt verwarrend.

Dag Karien,
In de video wordt uitgelegd hoe je 5 steken gedraaid samen breit. Je kunt daarna gewoon verder breien. Er hoeft niets terug gezet te worden op de linker naald. Het kan zijn dat het in het patroon anders beschreven staat, maar deze video laat alleen zien hoe je 5 steken gedraaid samen breit.

De tekst spreekt over de steken overzetten op de linkernaald, maar in het filmpje gebeurt dat niet.

Bij deze video moeten de 5 steken na het breien eerst terug worden gezet op de linker naald. Daarna de 2e steek op de linker naald over de 1ste steek. Dit nog 3x herhalen. Dan de laatst gebreide steek terugzetten op de rechter naald.

The video and the written instructions on the pattern for 161-31 are different. The video for Knit 5 together has the instructions that are given for Knit 5 together twisted on the written pattern, and vice versa. Which is correct?
