Bij de broek moet ik bij de 1ste toer al 44 stokjes hebben, hoe kom ik aan die stokjes als ik maar met 3 lossen begin. Ik heb nl ook nog geen pijp.

Dag Gon,
Je hebt 22 vasten aan het eind van elke pijp. Bij het haken van de broek haak je over beide pijpen stokjes boven de vasten, dus in totaal 44 stokjes.
