Crochet crocheting scheme

Such a useful hobby, like hand knitting, still retains its popularity. For centuries it served for the manufacture of vital items of interior and clothing. Today, its role is reduced to creative self-expression and original therapy.

Than a good hook

Crochet has a lot of advantages compared to owning knitting needles. Among the most obvious are:

• The presence of only one working loop.
• The ability to change the direction of knitting on your own.
• The widest choice of patterns, distinguished by ease of execution.
• The ability to add and cut loops, so you can get a wide variety of shapes and configurations.

That is why knitted toys, summer openwork, clothes for animals and other similar products are much easier to perform using a hook.

Why you need to tie the edge

Owning the basic principles of crochet will be superfluous even to the most ardent adherents of the spokes. The crocheting of articles by crochet (schemes for such work is very easy to find) is useful for the design of a variety of subjects:

• Cap.
• Blouse, jacket and cardigans.
• Blankets and knitted blankets.
• Napkins and towels (and knitted, and textile).

Straps require all exposed edges of the product. Some models provide for the execution of slats, edges or other types of edge decoration in the process of knitting.

This method has its advantages: the strapping forms a single whole with the canvas, there are no abrupt transitions, you do not have to worry because of the accuracy of its performance and the coincidence of the density parameters. However, if you plan to adjust the dimensions of the product with the strapping, apply a different color or texture of the yarn, and also a specific pattern, the only way out is to tie the edge of the product with a hook. Schemes and examples of finished straps are located below.

Tie the corner

The openwork of the corner is the most popular type of strapping. The scheme of crocheting the corners of products has its own regularity: the obligatory expansion of the cloth at an angle of 45 degrees. Comparison of two such angles gives a right angle (90 degrees). This principle should be taken into account if one has to independently develop a scheme for their binding. For example, if you like the pattern, but do not show the diagram of the formation of the angle.

If everything is found, then it only remains to follow the instructions. Below is a crochet crochet knitting scheme, built on the principle of circular web expansion.

The center of the "circle" is a picot of three air loops (VP), into which five lush columns are tied. The successive expansion forms a rounded corner.

The pattern is universal in that, if desired, it can be continued further, observing the rules of expansion and the formation of corners.

Strapping Bound

We can offer, as well as the ancient method of making vintage ties of cotton or linen. They were used for decoration:

• Towels,
• Towels,
• Tracks,
• Pillow cases,
• Tablecloths,
• Curtains,
• Blankets and other decorative textile and knitted objects.

This crocheting scheme is not suitable for clothes, except that it is planned to make something in the national style.

How does this happen

Knit start with a set of air loops, the number of which corresponds to the height of the future strapping, and knit according to the scheme, increasing the fabric until its height on the side is equal to the length of the edge that needs tying. Then the finished strapping is sewn with a seam "overlap" to the edge of the product.

A characteristic feature of this type of strapping is the formation of a pattern by combining empty and filled squares of cells. Empty cells are two columns with a crochet (CAP), between which two EAs are located. Filled cells are two CLS, between which there are also two CLS. The above crocheted pattern perfectly illustrates this description: the filled cells are marked with crosses.

Tying of a product bound with knitting needles

Separately, it is worth mentioning the process of crocheting products, knitted with spokes. This is done in pursuit of several goals:

• Achieving a neat edge;
• If desired, decorate the edge with an openwork pattern;
• When tying the strap for buttons;
• If necessary, change the dimensions of the product (increase the length or width).

The process begins after the main work is finished, all the details are linked and sewn together. The best preparation of the product to the strapping will be its steaming by iron or washing in warm water. So you can see the real dimensions of the product.

Then perform the first row of strapping, which always consists of columns without a crochet (RLS)! Here, the spatial imagination has to be strained, since the "loop-to-loop" principle is irrelevant, especially when working with the side edge of the product. It is necessary to select the number of loops of the strapping "by eye".

Insufficient quantity will lead to shrinkage of the fabric, and excessive - to the effect of ruches. Therefore, experienced knitters recommend to make a prototype strapping on a piece of the product, a length of at least 15 cm (for an objective evaluation of the result).

Strapping of woven cloth

If necessary, decorate a textile napkin, a kitchen or bath towel, a tablecloth or clothes, you can apply two types of straps.

1. Tie, imposed directly on the fabric. To form its first row, a thin hook is used, which is passed between the threads of the fabric. You can also use the stitch seam, which then to impose the canvas crochet (as in the photo below). The disadvantage of this method is the difficulty in calculating the required number of loops.
2. Bind the border separately and then sew to the product. This pattern of crocheting is much simpler than the previous one and has the advantage: it is easier to adjust and correct the size of the strap in time. However, here it is necessary to deal with suturing the edges, and the seams may look rough.

Pillar crochet: diagrams and photos

When making a blanket or bedspread, one of the required stages of work is tying.

It is started when the product is completely ready. The crocheting of items (the schemes are located below) may consist of knitting elementary RLS or decorating a rug with a more interesting border.

In the first case, the right angle is formed by knitting three RLSs from one angle RLS, in the second - by observing the expansion rules described above.

Knowing the basic principles and owning, even at the initial level, crochet techniques, you can quickly and accurately draw the edge of any product.
