In cold weather, the feet are warmed with slippers-footprints (crochet). Schemes and descriptions of these products are diverse. Each needlewoman can choose knitting technology and yarn for herself.
Footsteps - Short Socks
They will need one skein of woolen threads (250 meters per 250 grams) and a tone of yarn with 64% mohair for binding. The work needs to be done with the help of the hook at number 8. This will produce elegant slippers-footprints (hook). The diagrams and description below are presented for size 38-40, i.e. 25 cm foot length.
The work goes from the toe of the track. Close three loops into a ring. On it, knit 5 SC In the next circle in each loop, perform two columns.
The third circle involves knitting columns with alternation. In one loop - one, in the next - two. The result should be 15 single crochet.
The next three circles crocheting footprints (with a description and diagrams easier to cope with the work) continues without adding.
Seventh: add one column in every third loop. It turns out that the row will consist of 20 single crochet.
Continuation of knitting - circles without adding to a length equal to 13 cm.
From this moment, knitting continues in straight and reverse rows. The length of the product should be equal to 25 cm. Make a seam along the back wall of the track. Fasten and break the thread.
Continue to crochet the tracks (the diagrams and description will help you with this) in a circle from above, start from the sock. The crochet height of the single crochet should be 11 cm.
Then the work goes in rows. In the first, do not knit the last column. In the second, also leave the last unbound. Third row: complete all single crochet.
Replace the thread with the one with the mohair and tie one row of single crochet posts. The last row is made up of pico of three air loops. Decorate the wake with a pompom made of mohair yarn with a diameter of 5 cm.
Knitted imitation rubber footprints
You need to start crocheting footprints (with description and patterns) from the sole. In order for the product to be size 40, the initial chain must be 32 loops long. Then do the work as shown below. It should be guided, but not completely repeated. The number of rows may vary depending on the thickness of the yarn and the width of the foot.
Then the top of the track fits. First, make a row of double crochet columns made before work, i.e. convex. The second and subsequent rows require reductions in the nose of the track. To do this, on the central five columns, 1, 2 and 3rd need to be connected incomplete. In the 2nd-7th rows, the columns should be alternated: before and after work, that is, convex and concave. The result is an imitation of elastic on the knitting needles.
By the way, you can crochet such slippers, slippers and knitting needles. Schemes, descriptions for them will be similar. For example, crochet the sole, and then go to the knitting needles and perform 1x1 elastic.
The eighth row is supposed to knit without decrease. But again, focus on the thickness of the thread. Perhaps there will be fewer rows.
If you want to make a semblance of a slipper, you will need to knit a lapel. It consists of direct and reverse rows and is knitted with the same rubber band.
How to tie footprints from square motifs?
It will take six motives in order to tie the tracks (crochet). Schemes and description can be chosen according to the taste of the needlewoman. For the warm, a simple grandmother's square of double crochets is suitable. The sizes of motives should be such that, located on the foot, they completely cover the toe.
Fold two squares together and connect them on two sides. This is the sock of the track. Spread them, you get an envelope. Sew one more motive into each recess. They will go to the side of the track.
Sew a motive into the depression between the last two squares. It will be a continuation of the sole. To him, as for a nose, sew the last motive. This is the heel.
They are conveniently stored because they fold up like an envelope.
Simple single crochet
Start with a ring of three loops. Knit single crochet on them (5 times). Gradually increase the number of columns so that the addition goes smoothly. Bring the number of columns to such a value that the toe of the track completely fits the leg. Knit in circles to the middle of the foot. You can finish knitting in a circle earlier. But so the track will be more reliable to keep on the foot.
Now the work goes in rows. The same single crochet posts fill the entire sole and sides of the track. They need to be completed as soon as the product reaches the end of the heel. It remains only to tie the backdrop. To do this, make a rectangle on the middle part of the columns, gradually attaching the side ones to it.
Decorate the product with lace trim along the upper edge.
Knitting tracks
Knitting goes from top to bottom. On knitting needles dial 56 loops. The canvas is made with a garter stitch, that is, the odd ones are made up of facial loops, and the even ones are purl. Knit 14 rows. And on the sides of the central loop in each odd row to make one yarn. In odd rows these crochets need to be done with purl loops.
Then two more rows without adding. The middle 14 stitches will be the start of the sole. Seventeenth row: Tie one sidewall without 7 sole loops. Then the work is done only on 14 central loops.
At the beginning of each row, remove one loop, knit twelve in a pattern, two loops together. Turn the work and knit the next row as well. Continue to the end of the sole.
Then make a backdrop. It is formed from 16 rows of garter stitches. Attach them on the sides to the side edges of the track.
Decoration option: row with pico and pompom
Pico is a knitting element that is formed by three air loops and a connecting column at the base of this chain.
You can alternate them with one connecting, half-column or double crochet, depending on the main pattern of the tracks. The distance between pico can be increased. In any case, crocheted footprints, schemes and descriptions of which are given in the article, will be neatly designed.
To make a pompom, you need to cut the yarn into strips. Their length should be equal to the diameter of the future ball. Tie them firmly in the middle with a double thread. Then the pompom can be tied with the same threads to the top of the track. There is a recommendation to stick it with a glue gun. Then it holds tight.
Finish option with flower
It will take a silk ribbon. It needs to be folded into a double rectangle. Sew on the back. To collect a thread in the middle in a bow. Sew it to the trail. On top of it, place a flower from the yarn of the main product. Crochet is also useful here. Slippers-footprints, the schemes and description of which are clear to any craftswoman, will become elegant.
