Hi, when doing the increases on the left front, it says every other row. Is this every right side row then since we are also purling, or does it mean every other right side row?
20.05.2024 - 15:41DROPS Design answered:
Dear Nicole, when increasing on every other row on left front piece you will increase on every row from right side, ie on every row when knitting; when/if you have to increase on every 4th row, you will increase on every other row from right side. Happy knitting!

Söker ett gammalt mönster på armlös damklänning i a-modell. Röd klänning på mönstret. Mönstret kanske 15-20 år. Både klänning och mönster brann upp i en brand i våras, och jag hittar inte mönstret när jag letar på nätet. Finns det möjligen kvar någonstans? Mönstret Rose Whisper påminner om mönstret jag söker.

Hej Kristina. Jag känner dessvärre inte till det mönstret, men kanske du kan hitta ett liknande här? Mvh DROPS Design
