We will not stop on the trial andintroductory information with which you should always begin any training. As, for example, the review of tools, a yarn, and also demonstration of possibilities on already connected things. Perhaps, it is always more interesting to begin knitting lessons with practice. And the first such lesson will be: how to make loops on the needles. From what technique you choose, what you are going to knit, what pattern you like for your design will depend on your choice of hinges. After all, there are many described options, and it is very important to get to know them in the future. For the first row of knitting is the edge of your product, which will always be clearly visible. Therefore, it is important to address the issue of how to make loops on the needles, with particular attention. But for now, I propose to learn the basics of knitting.
It is possible to type loops with one or two threads, and the edge of the product will depend on the chosen method - thin, elastic, thickened or with fringe, etc. But for beginners
I suggest to try one very simple, and the other - the most common option. So I started and advise you.
Первым предлагаю простой набор первого ряда knitting for one thread of the so-called "air loops". Initially, in the right hand we take one needle and the end of the thread, and with the left hand we will press its continuation with the little finger and ring fingers, leaving
end on the index.Next, the spokes point in the right hand must be placed under the thread on the index finger in the direction from the wrist to the fingertips and reset the loop with the left hand. The loop is tightened on the needle, as shown in Figure 1. Repeating this procedure the required number of times, you type the required length of your product, for which a very thin tightening edge works best. It looks something like this (Fig. 2).
The most common, perhaps, will be the secondthe way how to make loops on the needles for the first row. First, it is necessary to retreat from the end of the thread as much as the width of the intended product multiplied by two. Then, in the left hand, put the thread on the thumb and on the index fingers and hold both ends of the thread in the palm of your hand, as shown in Figure 3. Now we take two needles into the right hand and feed the thread on the thumb towards the wrist.
Turning the spokes clockwise shouldpull the thread through the loop on the thumb with the index finger, as shown in Figure 4. Having now dropped the loop, do not release the threads clamped in the left hand, but place the thumb and index fingers between them. Spreading them and pulling the thread, you thereby tighten the loop on the needles. This was the position only for the first loop.
All subsequent recruited without loosening the thread.Lowering the needles in the right hand closer to the wrist, you will see that a loop is formed on the finger, as can be seen in fig. 5. Move the knitting needles from the bottom upwards from the side of the palm to the resulting loop, and then pull the thread from the index finger. Now you can discard the threads from your fingers and do the tightening procedure, as described earlier for the first loop.
In the same sequence, not letting goFrom the hand, you gain as many loops as you need for the width of your product. To ensure that those already recruited during the recruitment process do not twist around the spokes, while your first row remains smooth, as in Figure 6, hold each new loop on the spoke with your fingers. Just a few training sessions are enough, and you will never have any difficulty in typing the first row, as well as none of the following knitting lessons.
And now, stretching one spoke from the first row,we shift another knitting needle with loops in the left hand and proceed to work. So, a straightforward first row provides the basis for knitting any pattern you like.
There are many more ways and schemes how to typeknitting loops. But they are all more complex and require more skill and skill. But do not worry, after a series of workouts and exercises, you can return to the topic of the first row and learn a separate knitting needles lesson with more complex looping patterns. In the meantime, you need more practice and an insatiable desire to knit. Good luck!
