Knitting as a kind of needlework has arisen a long time ago. But in ancient times, this was dictated by the need to have clothes. Nowadays you don't have to know how to knit to have clothes, but knitting is gaining popularity. Nowadays knitting is akin to art. You can create amazing and unique pieces that will brighten up your wardrobe, but you need to be patient. No wonder they say: knitting is the lot of the patient.
It is necessary
- To get started, you will need:
- - tool (knitting needles, or hook);
- - yarn for knitting.
Instructions
Step 1
Naturally, you need to start from scratch. Get a book, or better search the net. There are many free video and photo tutorials for beginner knitters. The essence of knitting is the interweaving of threads, and if you understand the basics correctly, then everything will go like clockwork.
Step 2
So, you have learned how to knit loops (needles) or posts and air loops (crochet) and want to knit the product of your dreams. You should always start by knitting a control piece to determine how tightly you knit. Cast on 10-15 loops and knit 10-15 cm up with the main pattern. It is advisable to wash the sample after that to see how the yarn of your choice behaves during washing (shrinks or not, fades or not, and so on). After that, you can try on what you got, and then you will know how many loops you need to dial for your chosen product.
Step 3
Now everything is ready and you can start knitting. Easy buttonholes for you, as knitters say, and let each knitted thing bring satisfaction and fulfillment of your dreams.
Step 4
Do not start knitting right away with difficult things, otherwise frustration may ensue. Knit from simple to complex. Start by knitting a scarf, continue with a hat, and then swing at something more global. And it is best to start with children's clothes. They are small in size and knit quickly, and the principle is the same as in adult clothes.
