For those who crochet, it is easy to come up with gifts and presents for the holidays. For example, you can make Easter napkins with your own hands. It’s good to decorate the holiday table or present it to the owners of the house that they looked into on this bright day.
Napkin with a filet pattern
It is recommended to take any pattern for cross stitching as its basis. It is clear that the figure should correspond to the subject. It can be a Easter cake or a willow twig, a candle or a painted egg, or possibly a cross. Then you get an Easter napkin (crochet).
Fillet knitting means that with the help of double crochet, a net is made. The filled cells of the pattern prescribe filling the void with another column. This will turn out the desired pattern.
Such an Easter napkin (crochet) is already self-sufficient. But it is permissible to make it even more festive and elegant. This effect is achieved using a beautiful border along the narrow edges of the product.
One example of how an Easter napkin (crochet) can be framed is presented in the diagram below. But you can choose something of your own.
Round motif napkin
For her, you need to complete one central circle and seven smaller ones around. They will then need to be filled with patterns suitable for the occasion. It can be the letters X and B, as well as a cross and flowers. This approach allows you to get unique Easter napkins. It’s easy to make them with your own hands, the main thing is to remember the technique by which you need to connect the base of the circle.
Its beginning is in a set of five loops. The first row is formed by 5 air, two columns with two double crochets, air and two more columns, with only one double crochet. The second is similar to the first, only in the reverse order. First, 5 aerial and two double crochet, aerial and two double crochet.
The central circle is made of 42 similar rows; Easter napkins (crocheted) are based on it. The schemes of small circles are identical to him, only there will be 38 rows.
It is recommended to fill the center circle with a pattern in the form of a regular heptagon. You can start it from the center by typing a ring of 8 loops. Its first row begins with three aerial, then two double crochets with a common top. 10 aerial and three double crochet with one top. Repeat until seven elements are formed from columns separated by 10 air loops.
Second row: 3 air loops, another (*) 4 air loops, single crochet in the middle of the chain of the previous row, air, another single crochet. 4 aerial, single crochet to the top of the triple column. Continue the pattern as described after marking (*).
Connect the pattern with the circle using two double crochet stitches. They should begin in an arch from one airway and be attached to two adjacent arches of a circle.
Cross and testicle
Decoration of the holiday table can be not only an Easter napkin. The knitting pattern of a testicle or a cross is simple, but what effect the product will have on the guests.
An example of how to tie a testicle is the diagram below. Such a mini-napkin can be used for table decoration or as a stand for glasses.
The circuit contains an element in the form of a triangle. Which means "pico", that is, three air loops and a connecting column in the first of them. All other elements are clear without explanation.
The needlewoman, who wants her easter napkin (crocheted) to be in the form of a large cross, the following scheme will come in handy. It details how to knit an openwork pattern.
Round napkin with bunnies
Its beginning is any flower pattern. It is advisable that it be completed on the seventh row. The eighth row at the top of each petal needs to tie three columns with a crochet from one loop. Between them perform 18 air. These columns will be the border for the petals, inside of which there will be bunnies. The first seven rows of the pattern diverge, and then six - rounding is performed.
Around bunnies that decorate crocheted Easter napkins (schemes in the article), it is recommended to make arches from air loops. If the distance is very large, then attach the arches to each other to the previous row.
Bunnies themselves are obtained from double crochet. Their scheme can be seen in the photograph below.
Napkin basket for colored eggs
The bottom of such a “basket” is a simple circle. It starts with 14 air loops closed in a ring. On it, execute 31 double crochet. In the second row, crochet need to be knitted in every fourth. Separate them with four air loops.
The third consists mainly of double crochets that are knitted into arches. They should be 7. The gaps between them are filled with two air loops. Continue to knit rows so that by the seventh crochet column there is only one. And the space between them is filled with small arches from air loops.
The eighth row is recommended to be made only of arches. And the 9th and 10th are connected with crochets with some columns. In the 11th and 12th, columns with two air columns alternate. In the 13th, the columns will have to be knitted with the alternation of three air loops.
The 14th row begins another pattern. In it, on every third column of the previous row, knit a triangle of two double crochets and three air loops. Between them there should be 9 double crochets.
From the 15th to the 20th, the pattern is repeated, only between the triangles will there be first 11, then 13, 19, 23, 27 and 31 double crochet. The last 21th row is a strapping that is done with single crochet columns. In an arch of three air loops, there should be three such columns.
Crocheted chicken
Not only an Easter napkin (crochet) turns out to be a decoration at home for the holiday. As an alternative, it is recommended to tie a bulky chicken.
Start knitting relies on the head. For her, dial a ring of 5-7 loops. The first row consists of 10 double crochet posts alternating with an air loop. Second: two double crochet in each arch of the previous row.
There are two such circles. Tie them in single crochet with each other. Leave free on seven columns in both circles. From them the knitting of the body will begin.
The first row of the calf: columns with two double crochets, alternating with an air loop. In the second, two double crochet posts go after one air. Moreover, the columns are executed in arches.
Third row: already three columns with two double crochets alternate with two air loops. The fourth begins the difference in the breast and wings of a bird.
Half of the fourth row, which will be the breast, repeats what was in the third. And the second part consists of such triple columns connected by two in each arch and separated by two air loops. So continue two more rows.
It remains to tie the tail of the chicken. At first two rows are arches from air loops. The next row - 8 columns with two double crochets, pairwise divided by picot.
Finish the Easter chicken by knitting a scallop and a beak.
