Knitted rattle do it yourself
Let's tie the baby rattle with their own hands. Surely you caught the eye unusual for a toy color scheme. The fact is that babies' vision is still immature, and visually they perceive color contrast best of all. Therefore, the smallest so interesting pictures, consisting of clear lines, geometric shapes. So I decided to stand the rattle in black and white.
In order to make a rattle with your own hands, you will need nothing at all:
kinder-surprise capsule; filler forrattles - it can be beans, rice, semolina, etc .; knitting threads in black and white - I have YarnArt Etamin; suitable hook in size - it is convenient for me to use this thread No. 1.5; needle with a thick eye; needle threader; scissors.
How to make a rattle do it yourself: job description
Insert the filler into the capsule. It should not be much - then the sound will be more expressive. Remember that the knitted shell will somewhat muffle this sound. I took a few small beans for the “thud”. White thread start to knit bottom. For this 6 vp closes the ring, tie 8 tbsp. b.n., and in the next row we knit 2 tbsp. b.n. in each loop of the previous row. We have a pancake. We knit in the same way (adding loops in equal rows in each row), knit a pancake with a diameter slightly exceeding the diameter of the capsule in section. Please note: I knitted Etamin threads - they are made of acrylic, they are easy to care for, and such rattles are perfectly washed. If you prefer cotton, take the YarnArt Violet thread - it is made from 100% cotton. After the desired size of the "pancake" is linked, we continue to knit in a circle with columns without a single crochet without adding. Get a "cap". Try it on your capsule. Every 2-3 rows change the color of the thread. You can make the strip equal to the width, but you can - different. When the height of the cap becomes equal to the length of the capsule, we begin to remove the loops. To do this, gradually reduce the hinges, you can - vntyazhku. The hole can not close, and when the diameterrings will be 8-10 loops, just continue to knit in a circle, without additions and decreases, not forgetting to alternate the colors of the thread. This will be the handle of our homemade rattle. Tie it so long that it can be easilywrap and sew to the opposite edge of the strapped capsule, and it was convenient for the child to take up this loop. Tied up the handle - fasten and cut the thread, leaving a tail of 20 centimeters. Insert this tail into the eye of the needle and sew around the perimeter of the handle the edge to the free end of the capsule. As you can see, making a rattle with your own hands is quite simple! Tied up? The kid is growing up and, perhaps, his new favorite toy will be. Its time to begin! Eva Casio specifically for the site Previous article: Next article:
