A thin openwork downy shawl or shawl will warm, decorate the outfit and give its owner a special charm. A spider web shawl can be a great accessory, an unforgettable gift and even help with joint diseases.
It is necessary
- - knitting needles;
- - yarn.
Instructions
Step 1
To tie a spider web, use goat down (yarn) and knitting needles with stoppers at the ends (# 2-2, 5). They will be able to prevent the loops from slipping, which will be very large during knitting.
Step 2
To make an openwork shawl come out airy, pick up the finest yarn. It is better if it is hand-spun, but angora and kid mohair are also quite suitable. Almost all cobweb shawls are knitted in garter stitch, that is, the front and back rows are knitted with the help of front loops. To avoid mistakes with the knitting density of the spider web, try to knit a pattern first. Such a shawl must be knitted loosely with thick knitting needles.
Step 3
Choose one of the many patterns: braids, polka dots, hearts, fish, etc. Interesting and unusual patterns for knitting a shawl-cobweb can be viewed on a specialized forum or on one of the sites dedicated to knitting.
Step 4
Begin knitting at the hem. Cast on 21 loops. The first row includes 5 front loops, 2 purl and 13 front. Perform one broach, thereby increasing the row by 1 loop. Start knitting following the chosen pattern and using a broach in every second row (at the beginning of the row). The result should be a slanted edge. Tie the spider web according to the pattern until it is half of the finished shawl.
Step 5
Then knit, mirroring the first half of the knit, in the opposite direction. At the same time, on even rows, subtract along the loop, and do not add, as was done earlier. Close the last row of loops straight. Gently wash the knitted shawl without using powder (preferably with shampoo) and dry without twisting.
