When knitting with knitting needles, you often have to expand the fabric and give it the desired shape - rounded, trapezoidal, etc. To do this, learn how to add stitches inside and around the edges of your knit.
It is necessary
- two knitting needles
- wool thread
Instructions
Step 1
Practice adding stitches on a small piece of knitted fabric. Start by adding stitches inside the knit. To do this, tie two trial front rows. In the 3rd row, do yakida. There should be two loops of the working row between each thrown loop. Knit yarns on the seamy side with crossed loops so that there are no holes. Tie the front two rows again and repeat the necessary additions further.
Step 2
Try the easiest way to add loops. On a knitted pattern, instead of a yarn in the places of addition, knit two loops at once from one. Knit first, then purl. You can knit three loops at once from one in this way: front, yarn and also front. Or: front, purl, front again.
Step 3
Extend the knitting with the loops on the bottom row. To do this, at the place of the increase, grab the working thread and pull it up under the broach between the two loops. The resulting loop is then knit with the front crossed loop.
Step 4
Learn to add loops around the edges of the knit fabric. Link the sample to the "rungs" additions. From the right edge after the hem, add loops in any of the following ways, and on the left, knit an edge loop and then make the required number of additional air loops. From the inside, knit them in such a pattern as the front side of the work requires.
Step 5
Add separate loops from the edge of the fabric like this: knit the first loop of the row with the front one, and, without removing it from the knitting needle, knit again with the front one crossed. All of the above methods for adding loops when knitting can be used both on straight knitting needles and on circular knitting needles.
