If you have ever held knitting needles in your hands, then following the instructions it will not be difficult at all.
It is necessary
- - 200 g of Sublime Cashmere Merino Silk dk yarn (116 m / 50 g, 75% wool, 20% silk, 5% cashmere)
- - knitting needles number 4
- - set of toe knitting needles No. 6 and 7
Instructions
Step 1
The beret with a pattern of intertwined braids looks very beautiful, voluminous and perfectly holds the shape that you ask it. Cast on 68 stitches of yarn in 2 ply using fine toe knitting needles to get started. Rib knit 7 rows, alternating purl and knit stitches. Knit the eighth row as follows: 2 front loops, plus 1 purl, knit the gap between the two loops, turning over with the front stitch. As a result, you should have 102 stitches.
Step 2
Replace the knitting needles with thicker ones and proceed to the 9th row. Knit it in the following sequence: purl 3, knit 2, add 1 loop, then knit 3, added, knit 3, added, knit 3, purl 6. Repeat this 5 times and finish the row by knitting 3 purl stitches. Now in work you should have 120 loops, these are 6 stripes from the front loops and 6 stripes from the purl.
Step 3
In the 11th row, add 1 purl in the middle of each purl. stitch, knit the gap between the two purl stitches, turning over with purl stitches. Repeat the additions, and as a result, row 13 should be equal to 132 loops.
Step 4
In the 14th row, repeat the addition of 1 out. loops in the middle of each purl and in the same row on the front stripes, make a braid weave: first move 7 loops to the auxiliary knitting needle, knit the next 7, and then also knit with the auxiliary knitting needles. Next, knit the resulting 138 loops without additions, purl with purl, and facial, respectively, with facial. After ten rows, repeat the weave of the braids.
Step 5
After the coup, knit three more rows and begin to make decreases. In the first decreasing row in the middle of each purl, knit 2 out. loops together. At the same time, in the middle of each front strip, make 2 reductions with a broach, that is, knit 5 front loops, remove 1 loop without knitting. Knit the next loop and just pass the first one removed through this knitted one, then knit 2 knit stitches together and then knit 5 again. In total, you have subtracted 18 loops.
Step 6
Knit the next row without decreasing, and then perform 2 more decreases in the middle of the front stripes, 108 loops will remain. Next comes the row without subtraction. Then repeat the decrements as in the first decreasing row, that is, on the front stripes and on the purl stripes until 60 loops remain in the work.
Step 7
Then in the next row on both edges of the front stripes, knit 2 purl loops together, and in the front strips of 4 loops, moving 2 loops on the auxiliary knitting needle, weave the braids. Work a row more without decreasing. On the next row, subtract two loops on each purl and front stripes, as a result there will be 24 of them in the row. Then another row without subtraction. Knit the next knit for 2 out. and 2 persons. also. Next row, knit all in 2 stitches together. Then cut the thread, leaving a small piece, pass it through the 6 remaining loops, tighten and secure.
