I love this pattern! My only question is that it all the increases are done right after the garter stitches are finished (and in reverse on the other side) The pattern clearly looks bigger on the bottom than on the top. However you are knitting 74 stitches for the entire body of the bag. Why does it slope out at the bottom? Please help.

Dear Anne, the shape is obtained after felting the piece. While the piece is still wet, you should shape the bag by stretching the lower part of the bag more than the upper part. This way you will obtain the sloped look of the bag. Happy knitting!

Guten Tag Wie nähe ich am Besten die Träger an ? Nehme ich dazu die Alaska Wolle oder besser Nähgarn, weil das Ganze sehr dick ist. Grüße aus NRW

Liebe Frau Behrens, die Träger können Sie mit Alaska annähen. Viel Spaß beim stricken!

The straps are finished and have curled lengthwise like long tubes. For best results when felted, should the straps be blocked flat - then twisted? Or is it best to twist them together as they are - naturally curled? Thanks. In advance.

Dear Teresa, straps are twisted and sewn on bag before felting. Happy knitting!

In the flower pattern I think we should turn the piece to wrong side after the sixth round.. Am I right?
22.12.2015 - 12:04DROPS Design answered:
Dear Israa, you continue in the round, from RS after the 6th round, but you can turn if you rather work alternately from RS and from W. Happy crocheting!

250 gr/5 nøster er for lite til denne vesken. Jeg brukte nesten 6 nøster. Er oppskriften på heklet blomst riktig? Både 7. og 9. omgang henviser til omgang 3. Dette får jeg ikke til å stemme. Videoen viser en blomst med 6 blader, men denne oppskriften har 5 blader(?).

Hej Heidi, Tak for information, vi har dog ikke hørt noget om garnforbruget tidligere men vi skal se på det.

Ik snap het patroon van de bloem niet. Wanneer ik met de 5e toer begin, moet ik naar beneden steken aan de achterkant van het werk. Maar dan komt de draad waarmee ik moet haken toch om het werk heen te liggen? Ik snap het eigenlijk niet hoe het in elkaar steekt. Graag een reactie hierop! Groetjes Gea

Hoi Gea. Kijk op deze video hoe je moet haken:

Please can you tell me how many balls of wool I need to buy to knit this. I cannot see this in the instructions
21.07.2014 - 12:54DROPS Design answered:
Dear Mrs Bullock, you will find the total weight of yarn required to this pattern at the right side of the picture, ie 250 g DROPS Alaska / 50 g a ball Alaska = 5 balls. Happy knitting!

Felting: Put the bag in the washing machine and use a detergent without any enzymes or optical bleach. Wash hot at 40C/104F normal wash without any pre-wash. When washed, shape and leave to dry flat. Use a wool program for subsequent washes. Crochet flower (not felted): Crochet on hook size 4.5 mm/US 7 with Alaska as follows: Ch 3 and make a ring with a sl st in 1st ch. 1st round: *1 sc in ring, 3 ch*, repeat from *-* a total of 3 times and finish with a sl st in the first sc from beg of round. 2nd round: Crochet as follows in each ch space: 1 sl st, 5 sc, 1 sl st = 3 leaves.

Fasten off Sew 1 safety pin in the back of the flower and attach flower to the bag. AFTER FELTING: If the piece is not felted enough and is too big: Wash the piece one more time in the washing machine while it is still wet add a terry towel that measures approx. 50 x 70 cm = 19 3/4" x 27 1/2" - NOTE: Do not use a short program. If the piece has been felted too much and is too small: While the piece is still wet stretch it to the correct measurements, if the piece is dry, make sure to soak it first. Remember: All subsequent washes are as a normal wool garment. |
