Front loops are the simplest and at the same time the most necessary. Having learned how to knit them, you can already knit almost any product.
It is necessary
- Medium thick woolen threads
- Needles number 2 or 2, 5
Instructions
Step 1
Type in the initial row. The number of loops depends on the width of the intended product. Unwind a thread of the appropriate length from the ball - usually two widths of the part. Take the thread in your left hand, pass it between your middle and forefinger, and circle it around your thumb. With the other three fingers, you will hold it along with the thread coming from the ball.
Cast on with two knitting needles folded together. Bring the knitting needle into the loop on your thumb, grab the thread and pull it through the loop. Remove the thread from the thumb, and slightly pull the resulting loop on the knitting needles. In the same way, make the next loop, slightly holding the first - and the rest. After the required number of loops has been dialed, pull out one knitting needle.
Step 2
Leave the knitting needle with the initial row in your left hand, and take the free one in your right. With the index finger of your left hand, lightly hold the thread away from the ball. The very first loop is called an edge loop - usually it is removed untied (with the exception of products where a particularly inconspicuous fastening of parts is required). Remove the first loop without knitting in each row.
Step 3
Now thread the end of the right knitting needle into the next loop, grab the thread thrown over the index finger, and pull it into the loop. Thread the knitting needle away from you, from right to left, through the loop. Now remove the knitted loop and transfer it to the right knitting needle. In the same way, knit all other loops, to the last.
When you knit the last stitch, turn the work over and start a new row. Don't forget to remove the first stitch untied! By tying several rows, you will see that the pattern on both sides is the same.
