Knitted pattern "Snowflake", with step-by-step guidance and a detailed description of the process of work and photos
Combining two or more colors of yarnallows you to create the most amazing designs. Knitted patterns can be fantasy and copy cartoon characters, or they can be created in a natural direction, for example, snowflakes.Patterns created by hand can decoratechildren's clothes, napkins or will come in handy when creating large items: blankets, bedspreads. Such cute patterns will add variety, decorate plain clothes and become a bright, attractive spot. All patterns should be thought out in advance and depicted as a knitting pattern on paper. To make the pattern more understandable, it is necessary to make a schematic image in two colors (or more, if the pattern requires it). Use a sheet of notebook paper in a box. To create a snowflake, it is important to use an absolutely symmetrical pattern, with not only the right side reflecting the left, but also the upper part of the pattern repeating the lower episode. First, display the middle of the pattern of four loops on the sheet, and then draw a pattern of a snowflake, star or other pattern.
If you want to draw a similar picture,just print it out and write the row numbers on one side of the pattern so you don't get confused when knitting. To create a three-dimensional pattern, you need to knit the surrounding fabric with a relief pattern and a pattern with a front surface. In this work, the surrounding loops were knitted according to the "rice field" pattern. To do this, in the first row, knit one front loop, and the second one as a purl loop. Then repeat this principle throughout the first row, it is advisable to finish the level with an even purl loop.
Turn the work over and start the second row.knit according to a similar principle, alternating knitting one front and one back loop. Thus, one loop will be knitted in the same way in each row, and therefore on the front side of the work it will be front in the first row, back in the second, front again in the third level, and a back element in the fourth, etc. Where the loop has a back view, it will be raised, and next to it there will be a “sunken” front loop, therefore the protruding elements resemble the strict distribution of rice grains, as in a planting field.
When you get to the point where you knit the fabricthe place where you plan to create the pattern, use the schematic image of the pattern. Count the loop that needs to be designated as the lower central element of the pattern. According to this scheme, the pattern begins with knitting the "leg" of the snowflake, which is located five elements from the lower base of the pattern. Knit this loop in a different color and throw away the thread, then 5 loops must be knitted according to the principle of face loops. You simply pull the white yarn along the back of the product and use it on the next two loops, knitting them with the front surface. Then return to the yarn of the main color and knit the "rice field" pattern on five more elements. It is important to try not to pull the thread that is located on the back side of the work, because then the entire pattern will tighten, and the work will clearly change its parameters. Allow. There is also no need for the thread to hang freely, since, firstly, this is an overuse of yarn, and secondly, when wearing, hanging threads will cause inconvenience, and thirdly, when washing the product, they can get tangled and break.
Turn your work over and create a patternthe resulting pattern, that is, the white loops are knitted with the same yarn and according to the same principle, that is, maintaining the front surface on the visible side of the product. In this row, all the thread pulls will be located in front of the work and it will be much easier to adjust their tension. The third row is knitted according to the pattern. At this level, the central part expands and you will need to knit four loops in white in the center. The branch from the snowflake in the form of an arrow also changes and is knitted closer to the main pattern.
The back side is tied strictly according topattern with yarn tension along the front part of the product. Next, form the rows according to the pattern. As you can see, the maximum thread tension is seven loops, which is quite enough for tension. If you decide to increase the scale of the pattern, then the length of the "non-working" yarn will be a greater distance, which can lead to corresponding inconveniences when using the thing. The densest neat pattern is obtained with "gaps" of no more than 4 cm, then the pattern pattern will even be double-sided and will look quite attractive from the inside. Having knitted to the central horizontal line of the pattern, the pattern pattern begins to narrow. After a few rows, do not forget to start knitting the "paws" of the snowflake from the distant loops. After creating the peak of the snowflake - two final loops in the center of the pattern, you can carefully cut the white thread and tie it to the adjacent loop. This manipulation must be carried out strictly on the wrong side of the work. If you are creating a large item, such as a sweater or pants, the snowflake patterns can alternate throughout the work. If you place several snowflakes in the waist area, a natural, slightly tightened waistband of pants or a cuff of a skirt will be formed.
Charming snowflakes are ready!They are universal and are perfect for knitting both clothes for boys and outfits for girls. The pattern can be any color, and on the belt you can even alternate the colors of the parts, knitting them in either a light or dark tone.
You can slightly change the drawing, remove it"paws" snowflakes and then a patterned rhombus will appear on the knitted fabric. Such a pattern can decorate a sweater if you distribute the pattern on the front fabric on each side, you can also knit rhombuses on trousers and any other children's things.
