Learning to crochet a washcloth:tips for beginners The process of knitting, like any other type of needlework, requires both the presence of certain skills and abilities, as well as certain character qualities (zeal, patience). Crocheting a washcloth is not something super complicated. To do this, it is enough to know the basics of knitting techniques for the most common loops. The washcloth needs to be knitted in the round, so there is no need to calculate the number of loops and worry about the shape of the product. To make a crocheted washcloth you will need: • small thickness hook (for example, No. 4); &bul; threads consisting of artificial fibers (two skeins of different colors).Choosing a hook for the washcloth to begraceful and with fine weaving, you must choose a thin hook. Remember that you will need to work with two threads. It is important that the hook has a non-sharp head, otherwise the polypropylene fibers will lose their integrity. Make sure that the hook is comfortable, then the knitting process itself will be easier and faster for you. Selecting threads It is better to knit a washcloth from threads that include artificial fibers, for example, polypropylene. If you decide to do this using one thread, then the washcloth may end up without the required volume. As for the colors used, a lot will depend on your imagination and creativity. If you do not want flashy color experiments, then it is better to choose threads of different shades of the same color. And if you want to make this thing bright, you can choose contrasting colors. Let's start knitting a washcloth If you do not understand very well what the concept of “air loop” means, then you should not immediately give up making a washcloth with your own hands. In our master class we will try to explain to you as simply as possible all the features of the process of creating a crocheted washcloth. So: We connect two threads;We create a loop from them into which we thread ourhook; We knit a row of VP (short for “air loop”). To do this, you need to hook the thread and thread it through the loop. We complete this chain by closing the ring.Having decided on the long chain, you will thereby choose the width of the future washcloth. For example, having decided that the width of the washcloth will be ten centimeters, we need to make a chain of twenty centimeters. We create the edge of the washcloth. Along the circumference of the ring we make a sc (short for “single crochet”).We pass the hook into the hole of the ring, grabbingthe main thread, we pass it through the loop. This way we get 2 loops on the hook itself. Take the main thread again and pass it through these 2 loops. Thus, the RLS is completed. The 2nd row is knitted into the stitches of the previous row. 3 – 4 rows will be enough. The end of the row can be easily determined by the end of the thread.We knit the base of the washcloth. We continue knitting RLS,making the loops more elongated to make the washcloth more voluminous. The process of knitting CH will be faster, during which, however, the loops should also be pulled out. So it's up to you to choose. You have already received instructions for knitting a sc, and we’ll supplement the sc with a free loop. Thread a thread onto the hook. Insert a hook into the loops of the previous row. We grab the main thread in such a way as to make a loop on the finger. We pass 2 threads through the loop of the row and throw them off the finger. There are four loops left on the hook. We pass the hook with the captured working thread through the first 2 loops of the 4 received. 2 more loops will remain on the hook. We again draw the working thread through the remaining 2 loops. We make a row and turn the product with loops inside, thereby ensuring the convenience of knitting. We knit a dc, pulling out the loops until our washcloth reaches the required length. The final 3 – We knit 4 rows of sc, similar to the first rows. Making the handles of the washcloth Having completed the work with the main onepart of the washcloth, we begin to make handles for it. We make a sc in the first loop of the row, and from the resulting loop we knit a VP chain. The handle will have a length depending on the length of the chain.We fasten the end of the chain by making a pair of sc incenter of the tip of the washcloth so that the attachment points for the handle are located symmetrically. Having secured the chain, we begin to tie the handle. The technique is similar to that used when creating its main part. Next, we make a sc, grabbing each loop of the air chain. 1 row is enough for us, although, if desired, you can make the handles thicker. Having finished the row, we make 2-3 more loops in the extreme part of the washcloth for greater strength. Pull the loop through and tie a knot. We cut the thread with scissors.We make another handle using the same technology asand the previous one. First, attach 2 threads to the edge of the washcloth and secure it by making several loops. We knit a chain, fasten it symmetrically, knit the required number of loops around the perimeter, fastening them in the extreme part of the washcloth. We turn the “shags” onto the top. our product.Pay special attention to the importanceuniform knitting and its same density. If something doesn’t work out for you now, it will certainly work out later. A similar principle for creating a washcloth “in a spiral” makes it possible to hide flaws. And all subsequent products will turn out better and more beautiful, and the whole process will take much less time than initially.A handmade washcloth can becomea good present for a celebration. You can supplement it with original soap and a high-quality bright towel. And it’s better if all of the things mentioned are done by you yourself. Fantasize and delight your family and friends!
