Tina Parelius…. Tina, I am happy to accept your answer LOOP, but unless you make it into an answer, there's nothing I can do. I'll wait till tomorrow morning Friday and then close my question. Thanks for the timely answer. Nanna

LOOP! YES... Thanks Tina. I think that's correct….

Do you wish to make your suggestion into a "real" answer ;-)
farmor (asker) Jul 31, 2013:
No problem! Gitte! Do you know how to explain what is meant? That could prove very helpful :-)
Anne Parelius Jul 31, 2013:
The word should be LOOP

Oops! I overlooked that Sorry about that, I was too quick. Had completely overlooked the 'm'.
I understand your sense of battiness, then... Beats me, too. :D
farmor (asker) Jul 31, 2013:
Deceptively easy question --- driving me batty Gitte, Yes, I know what you mean but I think it's wrong :-(

"På næste p samles med en strømpep m op i lænkerne i den" Do you see the letter 'm' which stands for stitch(es), and so 'lænkerne' must be something else. Can anyone explain what is meant and perhaps I/we can work it out from there?
