Among the many types of needlework there is a special kind of creativity. It’s called to drown. The scheme for making an isonyoth drawing consists of the contours of individual parts, each of which is filled with the help of threads stretched in a certain order. Art is not so young, but it is still gaining popularity, winning fans around the world.
For children and adults
Exciting creativity to drown. The scheme of work in it is a certain sequence of tensioning the threads on a solid base with the help of holes or studs. Previously, such creativity was most often used in classes in kindergartens, because fine motor skills of hands develop in this type of activity in the first place. But now sinking is a peculiar kind of graphics that allows you to create amazingly beautiful paintings.
The whole image is based on the sequential filling of the contours of the details of the picture by pulling colored or plain threads over pre-arranged hooks - holes or studs. Since the thread is stretched, the surface must be stiff enough so as not to bend under the force of the thread. This activity is suitable for all ages. Older people, as well as kids, will be interested to receive, with the help of ordinary threads, stretched in a straight line, the complex geometry of the pattern.
Main feature
As already mentioned, creativity with the help of holes and strings is based on the gradual filling of individual elements of the picture, consisting of elements simple in geometry. Therefore, it is called it - to drown. The pattern for children is mainly circles and corners. But even these primitive components can provide interesting pictures. For example, the sun can be done in this technique even for babies according to a pre-prepared template.
Here, by the way, it immediately becomes clear by what principle the contour is filled. If the two contour points between which the thread is stretched are located close to each other, then the width of the resulting pattern will be less. But if the thread is pulled between two opposite points, then the width, respectively, will cover almost half of the internal field of the part.
The main elements
Uncomplicated creativity, accessible to children and adults, lies at the heart of the technique of sinking. The diagram of the figure is created by sequential affixing of hooks on simple geometric figures - circles and corners. Moreover, the options for these figures can be mass: circles, ellipses, zigzags, angles of different sizes. Their serial connection gives an interesting picture, which should be tightened with threads. Mastery can be achieved in the isonia technique . The scheme with numbers fades into the background - this is the basis of true professionalism. A complex combination of figures makes up the integrity of the picture. Well, for beginners, creating with the help of threads is precisely the numbers that will help in the work. Numbers in order indicate hooks, connected in series in a straight line to obtain a specific result.
Learn to see
Both novice artists and professionals of creative thought can use the isoniaz technique. The scheme for beginners must necessarily contain the numbering of the hooks, especially if there is a layering of the figures on top of each other. After all, there can be quite a lot of holes or studs even in not too complicated work, and to maintain the structure of the picture it is important not to get confused in which hooks to connect with each other using one straight line. After all, only straight lines are the essence of the work, it is their combination that the scheme shows .
From simple to complex
Even the very first works performed in technology can be beautiful enough to decorate the interior or become a present. For work you will need:
- Hard base. If the work involves the use of cloves, then you can take a wooden board, you can use plywood. If holes are punctured, then any badly creasing material is suitable - from thick cardboard to foam plastic ceiling tiles. The tile is convenient in work, but it is poorly tinted, and after all, it looks especially beautiful on a dark basis.
- Awl.
- Hammer and small cloves.
- Colored threads suitable for the author’s idea in thickness.
- Needle by thickness of thread.
- A sheet of paper and glue to finish the back of the finished work.
These materials are necessary for working in such an interesting technique as sinking. A diagram with numbers will only help, for example, this one.
The scheme is applied to the base, you can use masking tape. Hooks are marked if it is a carnation. If holes are used for fastening the threads, and the base is pierced well, then nothing needs to be done in advance - the threads will be attached in the process.
Creativity, drown and flowers
Probably, any picture or drawing can be depicted in the technique of sinking. Amazingly obtained are those objects, objects in the image of which you can use many smooth lines and transitions - the sea and flowers. Very often, even novice craftsmen make flowers in the technique. The scheme of such work can be very simple, and even a kid under the leadership of adults can master it.
The scheme is also quite complex, requiring painstaking work. The work is then carried out in stages. If the picture is single-layer, but with many transitions, it is more convenient to fill the entire field gradually, changing the color of the thread as required by the picture. And if the work is multi-layered, then first, of course, you should perform the first layer throughout the field, then the second and so on.
Sinking is a universal form of needlework. After all, in the end, if the work did not work out and an error crept into the weaving, the threads can be dissolved. Only you need to do everything very carefully, thinking through each transition thread.
In this technique, the masters learned to make not only kratins, postcards, panels. She allowed to receive unique household items - from planks for hot to jewelry.
Good luck
