In winter, a child always wants to be insulated to the maximum. But modern clothes with a predominance of synthetics do not always keep warm and dry for a long time. Forgotten grandmothers' ways can come to the rescue - personally knitted leggings or tights made of wool. Both warm and environmentally friendly.
It is necessary
- Wool weight 150g 80 and 70g in different colors
- Knitting needles number 3
- Hook No. 2 1/2
Instructions
Step 1
For knitting leggings or pantyhose we will use stocking knitting, elastic band 1 on 1, "heel pattern", embossed rhombuses.
Calculation of loops: 25 loops - 10cm; 35 rows - 10cm.
The number of stitches in the heel pattern should be divisible by 2.
Step 2
1 row
1 front, 1 loop, remove, without tying, the thread at the back.
Step 3
2 row
Purl 1, remove 1 loop without tying the thread in front.
Step 4
3 row
We start according to the scheme of the first row.
Step 5
Use auxiliary thread to cast on 40 loops, knit 4-6 rows with stocking. Then, with a different color thread, knit 5 cm with a 1 on 1 elastic band in a circle.
Step 6
At 6 cm from the beginning of work, divide all the loops into 2 equal parts. Do not knit one part (for lifting) temporarily. On the other side, knit with a "heel pattern" in all directions 3 cm for heel height. Divide the heel loops (20 loops) into 3 parts: 2 side parts, 7 loops each; central - 6 loops.
Step 7
For the heel, knit only the middle part, at the end of the rows, knit 2 loops together - the last loop of the middle part and the first side part. When there are 6 loops on the needle and all the side parts are tied to the middle part, then the heel is ready.
Step 8
On the two vertical sides of the heel, cast as many additional loops as there are braids. And knit in a circle with stockings. There should be more loops than in the first set.
Step 9
Divide the extra loops into 2 equal parts and in the next rows, subtract them from both sides of the heel - front and back. To do this, knit 2 loops together as many times as you have extra loops.
Step 10
When the number of loops is equal to the original, knit the length of the foot. 2-3 cm before the end of knitting of the foot, divide the loops into 4 equal parts and at the beginning of each knit 2 together. Pull the last 4 loops with a needle and thread. The toe should taper.
Step 11
Remove the auxiliary thread, put the remaining loops on 2 knitting needles. Knit up from the elastic with a stocking knit. The front of the tights with a thread of one color, and the back - with a thread of a different color. To expand the place of the step, add 20 loops by 18 cm - one loop in every 3rd row. After adding loops, knit the next 24 cm without changes.
Step 12
Sew the finished part along the inner edge. For the side seams, crochet a strip from the beginning of the toe to the end of the tights. Tie the strip with single crochets, connect the front and back of the tights with it.
