Pullovers, cardigans, chunky knit capes often appear on fashion catwalks lately. With the skillful combination of linen with large loops and thin fabric, the appearance of the model acquires a kind of elegant negligence. When working on very thick knitting needles, the clothes can get quite rough, so you should practice before doing basic knitting. Choose a suitable pattern that will emphasize the interesting texture of the dense canvas.
It is necessary
- - thick knitting needles and yarn;
- - darning needle.
Instructions
Step 1
Start knitting on thick knitting needles 6 to 15 with the appropriate yarn. The simplest patterns are recommended: garter stitch (in each row - front loops), hosiery (in front rows - front loops, in purl rows - purl loops), as well as any types of elastic bands. Complicated reliefs will make the product too bulky and may look ugly.
Step 2
Try to keep all the loops on the canvas of the same size - your mistakes with large knitting will immediately catch the eye, like under a magnifying glass.
Step 3
Use circular knitting needles if you are making a bulky piece. Make straight and back rows on them. It will be inconvenient for you to work with ordinary knitting needles No. 10-15 - the thing will turn out to be quite weighty.
Step 4
Choose simple shapes for knitted patterns. For example, tie a rectangular hat with an elastic band. Begin knitting with a 1x1 elastic (front-back) about 3 cm high, then knit the fabric of the desired height and close the loops. Sew the seams from the wrong side of the garment - and here is a stylish hat that can be made in one evening.
Step 5
Try knitting a chunky knit hat in a more feminine shape. It can be done on needles # 10 in garter stitch. The optimal knitting density is 17 rows and 8 loops in a 10x10 cm square.
Step 6
Type the required number of loops on the knitting needles (calculate based on the density of knitting and the circumference of the head along the line of the forehead above the eyebrows and the most convex region of the back of the head).
Step 7
Tie a large garter-knit fabric about 23 cm tall.
Step 8
Further, at equal intervals, reduce the loops: a pair of facial; remove the next loop as the front loop; knit the front one and pull the removed loop over it. Pulling the removed loop through the front loop is called a simple pull.
Step 9
Knit a row to the end according to the pattern, cutting the fabric by only a dozen loops.
Step 10
Work 6 subsequent rows in this way: front; two adjacent loops are knitted together as front loops, and so on until the end of the row. You must subtract 10 more stitches.
Step 11
Complete 4 rows with simple broaches, then make 2 more rows, knitting adjacent pairs of loops together.
Step 12
When you have the last 6 stitches, pull them off and pass a piece of thread to the wrong side of the fabric. Sew the garment from top to bottom, then fold the bottom hem and sew a joining seam from the inside of the flap. The chunky knit hat is ready.
