Knitting is a useful and interesting type of needlework. The basis of the knitting technique is the front and back loops, by combining and alternating them, you can create any pattern. You need to start training with simple schemes.
First knitting lessons
From the weaving of just two loops - front and back - you can get an incredible number of patterns. The basics of knitting, without which it is impossible to master this science, are the front and back stitch, garter knitting, elastic.
The first drawing from which training begins is garter knitting. The product is knitted only with front loops. The classic pattern used to knit shawls, hats, straps in pullovers. Hosiery is a one-sided pattern, the most common, it is used as an independent one and is the basis of many patterns. The first row is the front loops, the second is the purl, the third is the front. Elementary elastic - 1 front, 1 purl - this pattern is used to knit cuffs, straps, cuffs.
Things connected with a transverse elastic band look original: the first row - all front loops, the second - purl, the third row - all purl loops, the fourth - front, fifth row - repeat the rapport from the first.
Simple, cute drawings
A simple, uncomplicated pattern can be no less effective than a difficult one, consisting of several rapports. These include "putanka" or "pearl". It fits like this: the first row - 1 front, 1 purl, the second row - knit the front, front - purl. Repeat the pattern from the first row.
It turns out a two-sided (looks the same on both sides), small delicate pattern, which is suitable for mittens, jumpers, children's things. It is convenient to start learning on it, because flaws and mistakes are invisible.
The drawing "boucle" looks great on the products. In the first row, alternate the front and back rows, knit the second and all even rows according to the pattern, that is, knit the front one with the front one, and the wrong one with the wrong one. The third row - knit the front one with the wrong one, the wrong one - with the front one. Knit the fifth row like the first.
Derived from this pattern - "putanka 2x2" - when two front and two purl are tied in the rapport, "rice 3x3" - 3 front and 3 purl are used in the rapport. "Checkerboard" is a fairly popular pattern, the first row - 4 front, 4 purl, the second, third, fourth - according to the pattern. Fifth - knit the front with purl, purl - with the front. You can vary the number of loops and stripes. For example, start knitting with knit 5 and purl 5, knit six rows with such an elastic band, then knit purl over the knit, knit 2 rows over the purl, and return to the first rapport.
