The first technique to learn when crocheting is to create a braid from air loops. Not a single product can be performed without its creation, since it is the pigtail that is the initial row of the knitted product and its basis.
Instructions
Step 1
Initially, when crocheting a pigtail, a sliding knot is performed, for this, take the thread and put it on the hook in the direction of the hook base, you can also grab it with the crochet.
Step 2
Make yourself another loop from the loop you made previously, which is now on the hook. This is your first flyaway stitch.
Step 3
Repeat steps 1 and 2: constantly fingering the newly formed loops with your left hand, hold the airy braid directly under the hook. Pull the short end of the string and tie a knot at the beginning of the airy braid.
Step 4
Make sure that during your further work the loops are not only even, but also absolutely the same.
Step 5
Do not tighten them too tightly, as the knit will not be soft or elastic and the finished garment will not look elegant.
Step 6
Count exactly the number of loops you need to complete the future product.
Step 7
When counting, keep in mind that a knot is not a loop yet. To ensure the accuracy of your work, recount the loops each time you sew a new row.
Step 8
When knitting the second row, insert the hook into the second loop of the "pigtails", grab the thread that is on your left index finger, and drag it through the finished loop.
Step 9
Put the thread back on the crochet hook and then pass it through each of the stitches that are on the crochet hook.
Step 10
Perform the second and all subsequent stitches on the next row of loops.
Step 11
Knit the first row after the selected edge, grabbing the whole loop or half of the loop - perform the front or back half loops.
Step 12
Please note that if this is very important for a given drawing, then in the pattern diagram indicate the wall for which you need to take the loop. The quality and elegance of the future product depends on your actions.
