Sehr gut verständliche Anleitung
Das Muster ist wunderschön, am Anfang hatte ich allerdings etwas Probleme mich zu orientieren. Wie immer gilt: einfach machen, was in der Anleitung steht. Jede fertige Reihe habe ich abgehakt, das hat sehr geholfen. Die Verbrauchsangabe stimmte ebenfalls und das Ergebnis ist wunderschön. Wer Lust auf ein besonderes Strukturmuster hat, sollte dieses Tuch unbedingt stricken.

Raffiniertes Muster!
Ich musste die Anleitung mehrmals durchlesen bis ich das Prinzip der Zunahmen verstanden hatte. Die schematischen Zeichnungen der Zunahmen waren dabei sehr hilfreich. Hat dann gut funktioniert!

Ein schönes Bild - aber die Anleitung leider nicht umzusetzen. Habe es mehrfach versucht und nun aufgegeben - Bin keine Strickanfängerin!
