Knitters know that in any product they make, the pattern is the main element. But before finally stopping at something, one should take into account all the difficulties of the ongoing process and the skills that the craftswoman possesses. One of the most beautiful, convenient and simple is the "Corn" pattern with knitting needles. The scheme will tell you how to correctly distribute the dialed loops. In another way, this pattern is called "knots" or "hedgehogs." Indeed, the resulting thing justifies the name.
Briefly about the pattern ...
The knitting pattern with Corn has one distinguishing feature - it has an interesting texture: on the front side it is smooth, and on the inside it looks like small grains.
By the way, this pattern is usually used the other way around - the voluminous side always looks outward. Thanks to this turn, the things connected with him look just fine.
Where to apply?
It is suitable for knitting hats, sweaters, even cardigans, because such a pattern is able to keep its shape, while remaining very soft to the touch. The things that are connected with this pattern are very warm, because the canvas becomes more voluminous due to air elements. Consequently, the body temperature will be better maintained. It is quite dense, so the "Corn" pattern with knitting needles (the diagram will be provided in this article) is often chosen to knit blankets or decorative pillows.
Choose yarn for the pattern
To work on this pattern, you need to choose the right yarn. It is necessary to pay attention to its composition and thickness of the threads. Indeed, in case of an error, the picture will not be so clear. Those craftswomen who are just beginning to “make friends” with knitting needles and yarn are best to choose the average thickness of the threads.
So, the knitting pattern “Corn”, the scheme to which explains in detail the whole sequence of knitting.
Threads that are suitable for knitting with this pattern:
- woolen - work with this yarn will have a great effect on ready-made sweaters, sweaters;
- half-wool - despite the fact that about half of the component is synthetic here, it is also suitable;
- acrylic - they are perfect for this pattern, especially if they are used to work on children's things, socks, slippers and even small bags;
- cashmere and merino are the yarn for working on author's clothing models.
The first version of knitting
Knitting pattern "Corn" fits so. An even number of stitches are drawn on the knitting needles. As a rule, Italian or ordinary loops are used. Each row will consist of back, front, and yarn loops.
First row. In order to get a full-fledged element, you need to remove the extreme eyelet, then knit the front for the front wall. The next loop is the wrong one. Similarly, you need to knit to the end of the row. The last element should be the wrong one. The entire row of edge is fixed. In the end, this series is like an elastic band.
Second row. It also starts with the edge. Then - the front eyelet. The next is purl with a double crochet. So you need to knit to the end, and the last will be the edge loop.
Third row. Edge loop. Then, on the next double crochet, make another double crochet and remove. In this case, you do not need to knit on the right knitting needle. To make the second yarn, it is necessary to throw a yarn thread on the needle from the outside of the future product. After making the wrong loop. This series should end in that order.
Fourth row. It starts, like the previous ones, with an edge loop. Then you need to tie the front of the front wall. Now take the next element with two crochets and knit with the wrong loop. You need to look very carefully to grab all three strings into this loop. Otherwise, a hole will turn out in the product.
Fifth row. This will be a repetition of the first. After every fourth row, you need to repeat all knitting.
Hint. This is really interesting knitting. The "Corn" pattern (the patterns for it are quite understandable) is not so complicated, you just need to observe the tension of the yarn. It should not be very strong or weak. Also, sagging threads should not be allowed. If you ignore these simple rules, you will not get a beautiful picture.
The second option for knitting
There are only four rows in this pattern, and each starts with an edge loop. Pattern "Corn" with knitting needles (diagram only confirms the simplicity of the work) will give an idea of how interesting the finished product will be.
The first row. First comes the same edge loop. The next knit loop can be done in two ways: first, the front, grasping the front wall, and then the wrong side of the back. Now knit the front loop over the front wall and remove the loop from the left knitting needle. The next three loops must be tied together. The end of the row is edge.
Second row. It should be tied with purl loops. And at the beginning and end of this row there are edge loops.
Third row. First edge loop. Then from three of them you need to knit three loops without removing them from the knitting needle, just like in the first row (but in that case there was only one loop). Knit the three loops that result from knitting.
Fourth row. It is very simple and you need to perform it only with the wrong loops. Of course, the first and last loops of the row are edge. Then all rows are repeated until the end of knitting.
This option will be a little more voluminous than the one that was described earlier.
And that is how the Corn pattern fits in with knitting needles. The scheme is very simple and clear, the main thing is to follow all the recommendations.
