How to knit short rows and pattern in DROPS 154-8
In this DROPS video we show how you knit the short rows and pattern on the Summer Snug circle jacket in DROPS 154-8.
In the video we casted on for size S/M (86 st) and already knitted 1 ridge in garter st.
Then we knit the pattern as follows:
(1st row = from RS): 5 sts in garter st, K 2, P 3, (turn here), K 2, A.1 (= 23 sts) (turn here), K 1, A.2A, A.2 B over the next 8-14-20 sts, A.2 C, K 2, (turn here), A.1(= 23 sts), K 2, P 3, K 2, 5 sts in garter st.
At the same time the short rows are knitted as described: * Work 1 row over the first 10 sts on row, turn and work back. Work 1 row over the first 35 sts on row, turn and work back. Work 1 row over the first 51-57-63 sts on row, turn and work back. Work 1 row over all sts, turn and work back *. Repeat from *-*
When short rows are repeated 1 time there are 8 rows at the widest and 2 rows at the most narrow.
This jacket is made in DROPS Paris, in the video we knit with DROPS Snow.
