Children are the most valuable and expensive that can only be in the family. Moms love to create things for babies with their own hands. They put their whole soul and the warmest emotions in their work. We will talk about how to make a children's knitted plaid with knitting needles. Schemes and description are selected the simplest so that everyone can master such a job.
Selection of materials and models
You don't have to be a knitting specialist to do a good thing. A plaid blanket is just such a product where it is enough to be able to hold knitting needles in your hands and understand what a front and back loop is. Description of the scheme of a children's blanket with knitting needles will help to avoid mistakes in work.
Besides the fact that the knitted blanket is warm and practical, it is also beautiful. It is always nice to look at your work when it has been successful. Choosing a model for him, you can stop on the square shape, in such a blanket the child can be wrapped. If the product will be used more as a blanket, then a rectangular shape will be just the way. The size can be any, because the plaid can be useful for an older child. Then the product will be in a larger format, and the work will require more time and thread. The smaller the blanket, the faster it will become irrelevant, children grow quickly. You can make a big bright one that can be laid on the floor so that the child crawls along it and not worry that it will be cold.
To work, you need to have yarn and knitting needles. For thin threads, you need to pick up thin knitting needles. If you knit a product from thin threads with thick knitting needles, then knitting will be rare. When thin knitting needles work with thick yarn, the fabric turns out knocked down. You can try to link a small fragment and look at the result. Much also depends on the particular master, each has his own thread tension, this also affects how the finished children's plaid with knitting needles will look. The description scheme offers options for the number of loops, but the size of the finished web will depend on the materials selected.
Plaid pattern
For those who knit well, it will not be difficult to pick up any pattern that will look great on a children's blanket with knitting needles. The description scheme for beginners, proposed below, makes it possible to get a beautiful product without special skills. We see a pattern that consists of small modules, on each of which a picture is depicted. The modules are knitted into a mesh of the simplest knitting, alternating rows of front and back loops.
Separately shown are small figures indicating the number of loops, as well as a complete diagram of a children's plaid with knitting needles. The above diagram is suitable for a canvas that is suitable for a newborn baby. On it you can see that on both sides 14 loops are typed, 27 loops modules and 12 loops between the modules. In order to tie a small one, you need to dial 153 loops. If you need to make a larger size, then you need to add 27 + 12 = 39 (a module with a picture and the number of loops between the modules) for a set of loops. The number of modules can be arbitrary.
Work with the scheme
We collect 153 loops and begin work. We will knit 48 rows with facial loops. The diagram shows that the rows are indicated through one: 1, 3 5, 7 ... 9 and so on. This means that we look and knit a pattern only from the front. The wrong side is knitted all with the same facial loops. When we go to the front side of the product, we again work according to the drawing in the diagram. We finish knitting 48 rows and from now on we will introduce modules.
In total, until we get to the modules, we will be knit 48 rows with facial loops (24 faces, 24 - wrong side). With the simplest skills, you can knit a children's plaid with knitting needles. Scheme and Description make the workflow even easier.
In each module, all loops are knitted according to the scheme, the wrong rows are knitted with front loops. Thus, using threads of the same color, it will be possible to create a picture with a 3D effect.
When the first row of modules is knitted in height, we knit 24 rows with front loops (12 rows in the scheme + wrong side). And so on. The width and height of the number of modules with drawings can be adjusted. When the selected number of modules is knitted, we finish the plaid and knit the last 48 rows. Loops the last row close.
Some tips
Choose natural yarn for a baby plaid with knitting needles. Fully disassemble the diagram and description before starting work and make sure that you understand everything, because dissolving a blanket is not the most interesting job. Even if such small drawings on the module turn out to be difficult for you to work, you can remove them from the diagram, then the modules will be knitted alternately in rows of front and back loops. The blanket will turn out with a pattern of simple squares, which will also look very nice.
