The newly emerged scarf-snood fashion once again confirms that everything new is the once forgotten old. A similar women's accessory was already at the peak of fashion in the 80s of the last century. Women of all ages wore it with pleasure, but then this model of the scarf had a different name and was known as the “hat-pipe”. Modern loans are very different from their predecessors. The most important advantage of this scarf is the absence of uncomfortable long ends. It can be made of thin or thick yarn, knitted with a romantic or strict knitting pattern or crochet. In addition, such a model is very practical and convenient for young children who do not yet know how to properly tie a scarf on their own .
Scarf snood can be worn in various ways. It looks very beautiful on the head, worn as a hood, or on the neck like a collar-collar. Many women prefer to lower it onto their shoulders and wear it as a short poncho or pelerine. In this case, it will be very important to decorate the snood with a long fringe. If the “tube” scarf is wide and long, then it is worn as a bolero. Snoods of large diameter are wrapped in several turns around the neck, and one of the parts is covered with a head like a hood. A scarf worn in this way protects not only the neck, but also the head from the cold.
Many women prefer to make scarf snood with their own hands. The knitting pattern is very simple, it is enough to knit a classic scarf on ordinary knitting needles. When it is ready, it is necessary to sew together its ends. The resulting product is decorated with large fringe or decorated with fur. You can also make such a practical and versatile accessory from any old scarf by simply stitching it in a ring. Very beautiful models are obtained from knitted or knitted sweaters and sweaters. In addition, a fashionable scarf-snood can be sewn from a cut of fabric, for example, fleece or knitwear.
In order to independently knit a bulky scarf-pipe for yourself or your child, it is best to use knitting needles No. 6 and thick threads. The best option is a soft and beautiful coat with acrylic. ARCTIC yarn is just such an option, in addition, it has a bright palette and rich tones. Of course, you can pick up any other yarn, as long as it is thick. The number of loops must necessarily be a multiple of four, do not forget about another, transitional, two more will be edge. Having calculated the required number of loops, we get 51 (48 + 1 + 2). If you want to use a scarf snood subsequently as a hood, then increase the number of loops by about a third. If the product is knitted on a child, it is better to make the scarf less wide.
Now go to the pattern.
Edge loops are omitted in the description
, but you must remember about them. In the first row we knit one wrong side, then three facial loops, then again one wrong side and again three facial loops. This combination is repeated until the end of the row. We start the second row with two front loops, followed by one wrong side. Then we knit according to the combination: three facial, one
wrong loop. The last two loops of the row will be facial. The third row is performed in the same way as the first, respectively, the fourth - as the second. Thus, we knit the product until it reaches the desired length. After we close the loop with an elastic band. To make both ends of the snood look the same, the loops of the last row are knitted tighter. To get a scarf-snood, carefully sew the ends of the product with a crochet. A beautiful
fashion accessory is ready.
