In the cold season, the whole body freezes. And it is important to warm not only the upper part, but also the female legs no less need a warm robe. The needlewomen, in addition to creating cozy and voluminous cardigans and a variety of coats, hone their skills on knitting various socks, slippers and stockings. Also, original knitted socks are becoming increasingly popular. The article provides a detailed description of how to create this product, as well as patterns of patterns used in knitting it.
Variety of golf
It is worth noting that such a wardrobe detail as knitted knee-highs has become fashionable along with short skirts. Initially, they began to be worn to warm the skin of the legs. These long stockings are suitable for almost all ladies, regardless of the slimness of the figure. They can be combined not only with skirts, but also with shorts and even with short dresses. In order to lengthen the legs or emphasize their elegance when knitting stockings, various openwork patterns, weaves of plaits or braids are used. Knitted socks can also contain Irish or Scandinavian motifs in their canvas. Often, the creation of high socks begins with an elastic band, and the wider it is, the denser the product will stay on its leg. When replacing an elastic band, it is permissible to use a lace or wear stockings slightly lowered on the ankle.
Necessary materials
Knitting yarn can be any. In warm time, cotton, rayon, and linen will be appropriate. The addition of acrylic in the threads warms the legs in cool weather. In woolen golf, it will be warm in the coldest and coldest of the year. It all depends on what season you are going to use these stockings.
Typically, hosiery is knitted on four thin knitting needles, which serve as auxiliary, and one worker. All tools should be the same size and match the yarn manufacturer's recommended number. Another important criterion when choosing threads is the natural composition of the fibers. The main thing is that knitted socks warmed and did not cause discomfort (irritation, causticity, ticklishness).
Training
Before you start knitting and use your chosen patterns, you need to determine the density of your work. To do this, you need to dial the number of loops in multiple knitting needles, a multiple of the pattern repeat, and it is advisable to knit a full sample of the pattern. Then calculate the number of links that fit in 10 centimeters. The scheme and description of knitted golf in our article involves 28 loops.
It is also important to consider and study the pattern of the openwork pattern, understand the conditional icons and understand the process of knitting it. The elastic is knitted in a circle with alternating two front and two wrong loops. The length of the cuff can be any - at your discretion.
Openwork
Next, consider the figure, its diagram and description. Knitted knee-high socks contain this openwork pattern throughout the entire canvas. Schematically, the figure is divided into two parts. Knitting openwork begins with the first rapport containing 10 loops and repeating 3 times. Then the middle of the pattern of 26 loops is knitted, and after the lace, the first rapport is knitted again 3 times. Repeat the pattern according to the extreme pattern after 4 rows, and the middle - after the 7th.
Pagolenok with lace is knitted with an even cloth to a length of about 16 cm. Next, the stocking is narrowed by reducing the loops. To do this, in the first row at a specified distance and then in each 6 row, reduce one side of the seam from both sides of the lace. Having narrowed the bootleg in this way, leave 64 loops on the knitting needles. After the stocking, knit straight to the desired length and then divide the loops of 16 pieces into each knitting needle. It should be noted that the openwork pattern should be located in the front central part of the pagolenka.
Explanation of conventions
Each knitting pattern of openwork patterns consists of various icons called legend. The above diagram and description of knitted golf contains several elements that require explanation:
- The horizontal bar (-), as in many other patterns, indicates the wrong loop.
- An empty cell indicates that in this place you need to knit facial loops.
- Circle (O) - Knitwear.
- A triangle located at a right angle to the left means that the two loops must be knitted together so that the resulting loop is tilted to the left.
- The triangle, turned in the opposite direction, indicates that it is necessary to knit one front of two loops.
- The line crossing 4 cells means a crossing, in which the fourth loop is removed and stretched in front of the first three links and takes the place of the first. Then all the loops are knitted in the facial way.
When changing the openwork pattern, the decoding of the given icons does not change.
Knitting process
After you read the description of knitting golf, you can get to work. On thin stocking needles, you need to dial loops in the amount of 86 pieces. Evenly divide the loops into 4 knitting needles and close in a circle. Knit a few centimeters of the canvas with an elastic band. The wider the cuff, the stronger the knee-high socks will be. After the gum of the required length, an openwork pattern is knitted according to the above scheme with a description. Golf can be located both under the knee and above. Therefore, the size of the shaft can be determined independently, lengthening it in knitting straight places of the fabric. After finishing knitting, the openwork begins the formation of the walls and calyx of the heel.
Heel making
To facilitate the work with two knitting needles that do not contain an average openwork strip of the pattern, you need to move 32 loops on one knitting needle. Next, knit the fabric with the front smooth surface in rotary rows in the amount of 32 stripes, forming edge loops. Your knitted golf needles should form a heel back. Next, you need to shape this zone by connecting the walls and the cup. To do this, divide the loops from one knitting needle into three parts, leave the extra loops in the middle. Then you need to knit together two loops (one from the middle knitting needle and the second from the side). At the same time, a constant number of loops should remain on the second tool. In our case, 12. Reduce the links until the extreme knitting needles are released. The heel has taken the shape of a cup.
To proceed with knitting the sole, type a free knitting needle along the side of the heel of 16 loops, and also move it to the side half of the links from the middle knitting needle. Do the same from the opposite side. Thus, the number of loops on the lower knitting needles became greater than before the formation of the heel. They also need to be reduced, creating a rise in the foot. To do this, knit 2 loops closest to the upper knitting needles together on one or the other side until the original number of loops remains. Continue to knit the foot with the front smooth surface, and then knit an openwork pattern on the upper knitting needles.
Shutdown
The knitting process ends with the formation of the toe and closing of all the loops. The length of the foot should be determined by applying or putting the product on the foot. At a certain stage, knit two loops together on both sides. Decreases should be done through one row until 16 loops remain. Then decreases are performed in each row. The remaining few loops should be pulled together with the end of the thread and make a knot. Hide the tail inside the product.
The second stocking is knitted similarly to the description. Knitted women's knee-highs can be presented to mom or close friend. They will serve as a pleasant present in cold weather.
