Master-class on knitting knitting blankets for dolls for beginners

Many beginning craftswomen get acquainted with knitting needleswith the creation of the simplest items, such as doll items. Knowing the basics of knitting, that is, front and back loops, you can create an interesting miniature blanket, just right for a small doll. Even children aged 7-10, or young mothers who are just getting to know knitting needles and want to please their daughters, will enjoy knitting such a blanket.

To create a blanket, you will need:

Spokes of medium size, approx. 3-4.

Yarn of several bright colors: two colors are combined in the basis of the product, the triangle in the center is tied with the third color, and the strapping along the edges is created by the fourth shade.

Hook # 4.

To create a blanket measuring 25 x 40 cmAn experienced craftswoman will spend about 2 hours, and beginners may spend 2-3 evenings. If you are just gaining experience, then the knitting may turn out to be uneven, some loops are loose, and others are tightened, but you should not stop there, needlewomen get an even fabric only with time. The entire fabric is knitted according to a simple principle: even rows are knitted with front loops, and all odd rows are knitted with back loops. As a result, you get a front surface, but in order to somehow diversify a baby blanket, you need to use a combination of several colors that match each other. The front surface will not lie flat, like a blanket, it will definitely curl on all sides, so you will need a crochet edging, it will not only act as a decorative finish, but will also help to thicken the edge of the knitting so that the blanket takes its final shape.

And now for more details:

First, cast on 50 stitches.To do this, fix the thread with one hand between the thumb and index finger, hold the ends of the thread with the other three fingers, pressing them to the palm below the wrist. Connect two knitting needles together and pick up the thread near the thumb, form a loop from the stretch and pull it in the opposite direction. Do this 50 times so that the width of the blanket is suitable for an average doll. Having taken out one knitting needle so that all the loops remain on the second knitting needle, begin knitting the loops. The first loop is always removed, and the thread is knitted from the second loop. The first row is odd, so knit it with face loops. The principle of their creation is not complicated at all: with the knitting needle in your right hand you pick up the loop from left to right, that is, turn the loop a little, then grab the thread and take out a new loop from the thread onto the right knitting needle, and from the left knitting needle you simply throw off the loop, because it will not unravel, since a new loop has already been knitted through it. Do this knitting algorithm with the next 48 loops. The last loop in each row is knitted according to the principle of the purl element.Turn the work over and continue with the same yarn.knit the second row using purl stitches. To create them, pick up the loop in a convenient opposite direction (from right to left) and grab the thread, then pull the yarn in the opposite direction so that a new loop appears. In this way, knit all the remaining 49 loops, provided that the first knitting element is simply removed to form the correct edge of the fabric. Knit about ten centimeters of fabric in one color, and in the next step, start knitting the diamond-shaped center of white and add a third color that will fill the second part of the blanket.Tie a white thread to the 25th loop and when youreach this place on an odd row, knit two central loops with it. Then add yarn of another new color and knit with it from the 27th loop to the last one, thus, other shades are connected, which will help to diversify the doll's bedding. Now you need to knit the loops with the threads, the color of which is on the previous loops, but the white yarn will each time capture a pair of the outer loops so that the diamond-shaped pattern expands. That is, on the next front row, you need to knit with white thread from the 24th to the 27th loop, and on the next stage 23-28 loops, etc. When the size of the diamond covers 2/3 of the width of the future blanket, proceed to narrowing the pattern and at the same time in each row begin to decrease the loops of white color, knitting them with threads from the outer colors. Gradually narrow the rhombus to two loops and then knit the entire row with a third color, that is, this blanket began to be knitted with purple and ended in turquoise. Knit a few more single-color rows so that the size of this part coincides with the first round of knitting in one color, and then the blanket will have simple symmetry in color. In order for the edges of the product not to tuck, it is necessary to crochet them. For tying, select yarn of a different shade, for example, pink. Pass the hook through each extreme loop of the row and knit a single crochet. The principle of tying is that you need to insert the hook behind the extreme two threads, pick up the yarn, pull out the loop and then throw the thread again and knit the loop - and repeat this around the entire perimeter. To round off the corners, you need to make the tying tighter in these places and at a distance through a gap in one row.Next, we create an openwork trim.For this, cast on five air loops and fasten them after 2 cm, then cast on air loops again and tie them after a distance so that arches are formed. Such openwork can be knitted in one or two rows. But in the second row, they cling to the middle of the arch of the first row.The middle of the blanket can be decorated in the simplest waya flower that is crocheted in a spiral from double crochets and chain stitches. A blanket crocheted with your own hands will cover your favorite doll, add coziness and decorate a stroller or crib.
