quand on dédouble une maille (par erreur)
Explanation:
"It's relatively common to be knitting along happily for a while and suddenly realize that your stitch count is off. Maybe you're working in a stitch pattern like ribbing or Seed Stitch and all of a sudden your stitches aren't lining up like they should. Or maybe you just stopped to count for no apparent reason and noticed you were off by a stitch or two.
What Do You Do When You Notice an Incorrect Stitch Count?
Nothing.Try to find the error and rip back.Quickly add or subtract stitches in an inconspicuous place.Swear.Cry.Some other answer.
Current Results

This happens a lot to newer knitters, who may inadvertently increase at the beginning of a row of knitting, or split a stitch on one row and knit it as two the second. Or any other number of things."

maille en l'air/coulée, point fendu


Explanation:

http://www.wwg1.com/pele-mele/broderie/points-de-chaine/poin...

Il semble qu'il s'agisse de la même chose avec des noms différents ; Cela ne semble pas être une maille par erreur mais plutôt un point qui donne le dessin d'une chaîne comme indiqué dans les références.
