Cast on provisional w/wasteyarn or circular

Video thumbnail for Cast on provisional w/wasteyarn or circular
The video is showing two ways to make a provisional cast on where you afterward will have live sts to work the opposite way. First we are casting on using a waste yarn, then we are casting on around the cable of a circular needle. When using the circular needle you can easily afterward just pull the needle through to knit position and start working the sts for a hem, cuff, border etc.

Buongiorno ho imparato la tecnica dell'avvio provvisorio ma solo se ho un lavoro a maglia rasata, ho provato con un le coste 1/1 e vedo che non è possibile farlo. In questo ultimo caso, bisogna procedere diversamente o funziona solo per la maglia rasata? Grazie mille

Buongiorno Filomena, può avviare il lavoro con l'avvio provvisorio e nel giro successivo iniziare le coste. Buon lavoro!

Buongiorno. Vorrei sapere come chiudere un lavoro circolare dopo aver rimosso l’avvio provvisorio, con i punti di entrambi i lati già sui ferri. Devo fare una cucitura con l’ago? E come?

04.12.2018 - 20:28

DROPS Design :

Buongiorno Elisabetta, solitamente questo metodo viene utilizzato per avere dei punti vivi da poter lavorare, non da chiudere immediatamente; quale modello sta lavorando? Buon lavoro!

J’ai vu un tutoriel qui montrait comment rabattre des mailles provisoires sur une couverture pour avoir le même effet en haut et en bas. J’aimerais savoir si vous avez un tutoriel de ce genre, merci beaucoup.

04.09.2018 - 22:15

DROPS Design :

Bonjour Mme Perreault, vous pouvez probablement reprendre les mailles du montage provisoire et les rabattre comme vous avez rabattu les dernières mailles de votre ouvrage pour avoir exactement le même effet. Bon tricot!

Buongiorno vorrei sapere se è possibile fare un avvio provvisorio chiudendo le maglie in tondo con i ferri circolari, e se sì qual 'è la tecnica, grazie

04.01.2018 - 18:41

DROPS Design :

Buonasera Monica. E' sufficiente che al primo ferro lavorato, chiuda le maglie in tondo. Può seguire la tecnica riportata in questo video, oppura quella illustrata nei due video che alleghiamo. Buon lavoro!

Bonjour, J\'aimerais savoir si je peux utiliser la technique de montage provisoire sur aiguilles circulaires, pour du point mousse envers (toutes les mailles à l\'envers). Je souhaite tricoter l\'empiècement d\'une veste, puis tricoter le bas comme un top-down pour contrôler la longueur. Je pense que je devrai tordre mes mailles à la reprise . Merci d\'avance.

30.10.2016 - 20:26

DROPS Design :

Bonjour Patricia, la technique du montage provisoire peut être utilisée dans différentes circonstances, ajustez simplement votre 1er rang / l'endroit et l'envers de l'ouvrage comme vous le souhaitez, en fonction de l'effet recherché. Bon tricot!

Bonjour, je ne comprends pas non plus ce qu'il faut faire ... faut il tricoter 1 maille sur 1 aiguille et ensuite 1 maille sur l'autre, et ainsi de suite? D'avance merci

14.01.2016 - 12:21

DROPS Design :

Bonjour Mme Kazi Tani, tricotez les mailles montées sur l'aiguille, puis, quand votre ouvrage est fait, vous récupérez les mailles montées avec l'aiguille circulaire, joignez le fil et tricotez dans l'autre sens. Bon tricot!

Y a t il une suite à cette vidéo ? Que fait on avec des mailles sur ces deux aiguilles ?

DROPS Design :

Bonjour Christine, la vidéo montre comment faire un montage provisoire, on tricote d'abord une première partie, puis on relève les mailles du montage provisoire pour tricoter dans l'autre sens, sans couture ni démarcation. Bon tricot!

How to work a diagonal shoulder, cast on stitches for the neckline and work the back piece together

In this DROPS video, we show you how to work each front piece with diagonal shoulders and short rows, the piece is worked bottom up. Then we show how to increase stitches for the neckline and join the shoulders for the back piece, then continue working top down. An I-cord band is worked on each side. We have already worked one section of the front piece and decreased stitches for the neckline. The video shows how we work 6 short rows (German short rows) on the right front piece, creating a diagonal shoulder. Then we show how to increase 1 stitch 3 times towards the neckline, which is now the back piece. Then we show the same for the left shoulder and finally cast on 12 stitches between the shoulders before the shoulders are knitted together. We use the yarn DROPS Snow in the video. This technique is used among other things in pattern DROPS 255-9, Driftwood Vest, with a different stitch count, number of short rows and cast-on stitches. You will find the pattern by clicking the picture below:

How to cast on with 2 circular needles to get a looser cast on edge

In this DROPS video we show how you can cast on with two circular needles. We sometimes recommend this in our patterns to prevent the cast on edge being too tight. When you have cast on the required number of stitches, you pull out one circular needle and start to knit. In this video, we cast on with needle 7 and 8 = US 10,75 and US 11, and it is needle 8 = US 10,75 that we pull out. We use the yarn DROPS Snow in the video. You will find patterns where this technique can be used by clicking on the pictures below.

Then we knit 4 rounds and on the next round we knit all stitches together 2 by 2. Then we work a rib (knit 1 twisted/purl 1). These socks are worked in DROPS Fabel, but in the video, we work with a thicker yarn; DROPS Snow. You must read a pattern with this technique to be able to follow this video properly.
