Hei, jeg har strikket de første 21 omg etter A1 diagrammet og forstår ikke helt hvordan man forskyver 1 m maske mot venstre.

DROPS Design :

Hei Angela Jo, når du starter på 22. omgang strikker du som diagrammet viser og når du skal strikke 23. omgang følger du også diagrammet, men du flytter maskemarkøren etter 1. maske mot venstre, slik at omgangens start blir nå rett før første kast i diagrammet. Altså starten på omgangen forskyves 1 maske mot venstre, først på hver 2.omgang (=23. omgang i diagrammet), deretter på hver 4.omgang (omgang 27, 31, 35 og 39) – dvs omgangens start er alltid rett før første kast i diagrammet slik at den blir mest mulig usynlig. mvh DROPS Design

Ho seguito con molta attenzione le istruzioni e ho usato lo stesso filato, ma l'effetto è molto diverso. appare molto più grossolano. In particolare la parte centrale (dove ci sono gli aumenti eseguiti con i gettati) è molto più allargata ... meno compatta. Forse gli aumenti non sono stati fatti con i gettati ... non so. Anche facendo i rovesci ritorti più di tanta non guadagna compattezza.

DROPS Design :

Buongiorno Claudia, il suo campione corrisponde a quello indicato? Perchè se risulta diverso e più morbido è normale che il lavoro venga più molle. Le confermiamo che gli aumenti sono dei gettati. Buon lavoro!

Liebe Kathy, Bitte prüfen Sie, ob sie die neueste Version des Adobe Flash Players installiert haben. Wenn das Problem weiterhin besteht, schauen Sie bitte auf Vimeo's FAQ nach. Das Video finden Sie auch im YouTube. Viel Spaß beim stricken!

Je ne comprends pas le diagramme qui commence par 1m et un jeté alors que sur chaque aiguille nous avons monté 2m sur la vidéo on montre 4 m au 1er rang tricoté?????????????

DROPS Design :

Chère Madame Rodier, on commence par monter 8 mailles (time code 00:38) et on les répartit sur 4 aiguilles (= 2 m par aiguille) (time code 1:13), puis on tricote 8 fois A.1 en rond, soit 2 fois A.1 par aiguille (au 1er rang de A.1, on a: 1 jeté, 1 m end, soit 2 m par motif de A.1 et 4 m sur chaque aiguille). Bon tricot!

Hoi Anja. Ze breit av op de Noorse manier. Maar je kan ook av breien op je eigen manier. Het gaat hier om hoe je het patroon in de rondte breit en je kan altijd r of av breien op je eigen manier.

How to knit up stitches around an armhole, for a sleeve with split

In this DROPS video, we demonstrate how to knit up stitches around an armhole for a split-sleeve. We begin by showing you how to use a crochet hook to knit up stitches and transfer them onto a knitting needle. Then, we continue by showing you how to work with the stitches using knitting needles. Start at the bottom of the armhole (not directly under the sleeve) and knit up the number of stitches specified in your pattern, going as far as the other side of the armhole. Knit up the stitches within one stitch, which is often a garter stitch. Turn and work back, continuing back and forth to the measurement specified in your pattern, or use short rows for a better fit. Once completed, the sleeve is joined and worked in the round. Refer to your pattern for details on measurements, decreases, and the ribbed cuff. In this video, we demonstrate only 6–7 cm of the sleeve. Finally, sew together the hole under the sleeve. To make the seam and sewing easier to see, we use a contrasting color in the video. The yarn featured in this video is DROPS Air. This technique can be used in several patterns – which you can find by clicking on the pictures below:

Sew in the buttons. Sew the bands together mid-back, then sew the bands to the neckline, stretching the bands a little to sew it on.

How to work the jacket in DROPS 248-5 – Part 3

In this DROPS video we show a bit of how the Sand Diamond Cardigan is worked. We use the stitch numbers for size M. We have already worked the bands with an I-cord edge, some of chart A.1, A.2, A.3 and A.4 (see video Part 1) and worked YOKE until the part divide for body and sleeves. (see video Part 2). We start the video by working the row where we divide the bodies and sleeves (from right side). Read under DIVIDE FOR BODY AND SLEEVES – ALL SIZES in the pattern. In size M there should then be 235 stitches for the body and 56 stitches for each sleeve. Then it is working from wrong side and work 2nd row in the charts as follows: Work 7 band stitches as before, A.6, A.3 until there are 12 stitches left, A.5 and 7 band stitches as before. * Work 7 band stitches as before, A.5, A.3 until there are 13 stitches left, A.6 and 7 band stitches as before. Work the diagrams 1 time in height. Continue with 7 band stitches as before, A.7, A.3 until there are 18 stitches left, A.8 and 7 band stitches as before. Work the diagrams 1 time in height *. Work from *-* until the body have the specified length (18 cm in size M), finishing after a complete repeat of A.3 in height. Remember the buttonholes. Then change the needle, work a rib, increase stitches and work the 7 band stitches on each side are worked as before, read more in the pattern. This jacket is worked in DROPS Daisy, but in the video, we use DROPS Cotton Merino color no. 30. You must read the pattern and look at the charts to be able to follow this video properly.

How to work the jacket in DROPS 248-5 – Part 2

In this DROPS video we show a bit of how the Sand Diamond Cardigan is worked. We use the stitch numbers for size M. We have already worked the bands with an I-cord edge, worked 24 rows of chart A.1 and worked charts A.2, A.3 and A.4 two times in height (see video Part 1). When A.2, A.3 and A.4 have been worked two time in height, you will work 2 more repeat of A.3 between A.2 and A.4 (= 4 reports of A.3). When A.1 has been worked 1 time in height, the increases towards mid-front are finished, and except size S, continue increasing for raglan in each transition between body and sleeves. Read under the PATTERN and under the size you knit how to work the next row (we use stitch markers between the charts to get a better overview). Remember BUTTONHOLES. When A.2, A.3 and A.4 have been worked 1 more time in height, all the increases are finished and there are now 317 stitches on the needle and the work measures approx. 27 cm from the shoulder (size M). This jacket is worked in DROPS Daisy, but in the video, we use DROPS Cotton Merino color no. 30. You must read the pattern and look at the charts to be able to follow this video properly.

On the next row, work garter stitches, stocking stitches, after charts and increases to raglan, read under YOKE in the pattern, the 7 band stitches on each side are worked as before (we use stitch markers between the charts to get a better overview).
