Detta mönster tål att titta på ett antal ggr innan man börjar! När man väl fått kläm på det så är det ganska enkelt och blir till ett jätte-fint mönster. Vad jag missade i början var att varv 2 och 4 börjar olika men med samma slags maskor i hela mönstret.

Hej Jeg syntes også at videoen var svær at tyde, men efter at have set den flere gange og gransket opskriften mange gange, lykkedes det mig til sidst at forstå mønstret ;-o) den første pind (på retsiden) strikkes altid vrang, og det samme med pind 3. på pind nr. 2 skal du starte med at strikke i den samme maske, altså 1 r, 1vr, 1r i den samme maske, på den måde får man 3 nye masker op, for når man næste gang strikker 3 vrang sammen mister man jo de 3 masker. Med venlig hilsen Annette

Jag förstår ingenting! det står en sak i beskrivningen och det är en helt annan i videon.. när man tar alla tre i en avig och sen gör en ny "trea". det står ju ingenting om det i beskrivningen. går det att förklara på annat sätt? jag har försökt göra som i beskrivningen men får det inte att fungera alls.

At the end of each row work 2 edge stitches as follows: Work until there are 2 stitches left on the row, slip 1 stitch purl-wise with the strand in front, knit 1.

How to work a rib (knit 1, purl 1) around with circular needles

In this DROPS video we show how to work a rib with knit 1, purl 1 on circular needle. Working a rib gives an elastic piece that is great for cuffs and edges. Cast on a number of stitches that is divisible by 2, then put the circular needle “together” and start with knit 1 (the first stitch that was cast on), purl 1, knit 1, purl 1, etc. the entire round (you can also start with purl 1, knit 1, etc.). When the 2nd round starts knit 1, purl 1, knit 1, purl etc. It’s important that all knitted stitches comes above knitted stitches, and all purled stitches come above the purled stitches.
