Our bracelet will contain the inscription I love you,but in the abbreviation we are accustomed to. We will embroider the word "I", instead of the word "love" we will make a heart, and shorten the word "you" to 1 letter "u". Such a bracelet can be a good gift for a loved one. We remove the middle row from the loom and turn it with the open side of the columns to the right. It is desirable that there is no base at the bottom of the loom in the place where we will weave, since the bracelet will come out from below. We will weave according to the pattern. We will use 12 columns, that is, 6 in each row. The dots on the pattern mean that we should throw on an elastic band of the main color, in our case they will be red. And the crosses are the letters that we will weave. They are woven with white elastic bands. You can take any other colors. According to a similar pattern, you can weave any word or picture.
We need to put 1 rubber band (cut-out) onall 6 columns (st-kov) of the bottom row. You can always put it on the top row, it does not matter. Next, you need to pull 6 ribs. One on the first st-kov of both rows, the second on the second and so on. In this case, we turn the rib. The rib should cross in the middle.
If you want the bracelet to be thicker and denser,then you need to pull 2 cutters each time, except for the one that we put on all the stitches at the bottom. Next, take the elastic band that is put on all the stitches of the bottom row and transfer it to the center. That is, we simply remove it from the stitches and release it in the center between the rows. This was the 1st row. In total, we will weave 23 rows. It is better to bend the pattern after each row so that you can see exactly how the cutters should be arranged. This will help us not to get confused and not spoil the pattern. In the 2nd row, we again put 1 cutter on all the stitches at the bottom. And now we will arrange the cutters in the same way as in the previous row. Again, remove the elastic band that is pulled over all the stitches. Now we remove the bottom layer, that is, we remove 1 lower cutter from each stitch and release it inside. If we throw 2 cutters on, then we will remove 2 at a time. We bend the pattern. We knit the 3rd row in the same way, but you don’t need to turn the stitches.
Again, we remove the layer from the bottom.
We knit the remaining rows in exactly the same way, according to the diagram. Where there is a dot, you need to throw on a red stitch, and where there is a cross - a white one.
As a result, we get the following inscription.
Please note that the first 5 rows andThe last 5 rows consist only of the main color rubber bands. To remove the bracelet from the loom, we need to transfer the stitches from each stitch of the bottom row to the opposite stitch of the top row or vice versa.
If 2 cuttings were used during weavingyarn over row, then after the cuts are transferred, you need to throw off the bottom 2. If you took 1 cut, then you don’t need to throw anything off. Now just place the cuts from each stitch on the hook one by one. Hook 1 red cut and pull it through all the cuts on the hook.
We put on the clip.When we close the bracelet, we need to use the 2nd side of the clip to catch the notch on the other end of the bracelet. The bracelet is ready! You can wear it on your hand, or you can give it to a close and beloved person!
