We start with Row 2 (RS):
Row 1 (WS): K from WS.
Row 2 (RS): K 2, * K 1 in st from previous row and then drop st off left needle, K 1 *, repeat from *-* until 2 sts remain on needle, K 2.
Row 3 (WS): K 2, * K 1, lift loop around st and K this tog with st on needle *, repeat from *-* until 2 sts remain on needle, K 2.
Row 4 (RS): K 2, * K 1, K 1 in st from previous row and then drop st off left needle, repeat from *-* until 2 sts remain on row, K 2.
Row 5 (WS): K 2, * lift loop around the st and K this st tog with st on needle, K 1*, repeat from *-* until 2 sts remain on row, K 2.
Repeat 2nd-5th row upwards.

Ich habe den Fehler gefunden. Da in die Vorrunde gestochen wird und dort abgenommen wurde (zwei M.zusamnengestrickt wurden)löste sich die Masche .

Hallo, ich komme mit dem Waffelmuster nicht zurecht , in jeder 4. aReihe sind Maschen heruntergefallen. Ich halte mich an das Video, aber ich muss ja irgendwas falsch machen .

Liebe Brigitte, wenn Sie wie im Video gezeigt stricken, bleibt die Maschenzahl gleich. Sie stricken ja die Masche aus der Vorreihe heraus, ehe Sie die Masche von der linken Nadel gleiten lassen.

Hoi Lies. Ze pakt de steken op van de vorige naald. Je kan ook de video stopzetten, dan kan je het zien.

I think, It is like Row2 just the knits in the repeat part are exchanged: Row 4 (RS): K 2, * K 1, K 1 in st from previous row and then drop st off left needle *, repeat from *-* until 2 sts remain on row, K 2.

I have a question considering the 4th neadle... There's missing a * somewhere, so now I don't know what to do... I'm always stuck from there on and can't go threw with the pattern. Some help would be great! Thanks
