Knit crochet is much easier than knitting.Many fans of traditional style can argue with that. However, the skilled workers, who do not want to conduct five constantly dropping knitting needles, have long invented a new method for themselves and their companions. The scheme and description of socks, crocheted, is a popular topic, many authors of master classes cover it. The level of such work can not be attributed to the complex. The main thing is to observe a uniform density, so that the finished products are of the same size.
Selection of yarn
The natural choice for socks will be warmyarn, fibers of which consist of natural materials not less than 30%. Of course, the more wool or mohair, the better. Acrylic is not recommended for 100% acrylic socks. Do not believe the words of sellers and their own eyes: artificial fibers will not heat. And if you knit from acrylic fishnet light golfs, they will be hot. It is better to use cotton or linen.
The thickness of the yarn for knitting such items aswarm socks, hooks (the pattern and density of the pattern are of decisive importance) can be in the range 250-350 m / 100 g. If you intend to get a finer or openwork cloth, you need to use yarn with a meter above 400 m / 100 g. The working tool should be selected to yarn.
Beginning of knitting
You can start work from the side of the cuff, and from the toe. In any case, you will get beautiful and warm socks crocheted. For beginners, the scheme presented below will be clear.
In accordance with it, the first row of the product formshis toe. In this example, the initial chain of air loops (VPs) consists of 14 VPs, plus 3 VPs per lift. The number of loops in the initial and remaining rows of manufactured products may differ significantly from that shown in the figure. This factor is influenced by the thickness of the thread and the pattern used. The exact number of loops can be calculated by running a control sample from the selected yarn.
The resulted scheme and the description of socks, a hookrelated, illustrate the universal way to get started. The first row is formed by unbinding the columns with a crochet from both sides of the initial chain from the air loops.
Knitting the bottom of the product
To achieve the desired size of the canvasadd loops along the edges of the chain. Increasing each row by two loops (one on each side), you should focus on the volume of the person's foot, for which the socks are knitted. When the desired width is reached, the additions are stopped.
Then the canvas is knitted exactly.The use of columns without a crochet (RLS) will make really warm and dense socks crocheted. The diagram shows the distribution of the openwork pattern, but it can also be replaced by solid dense knitting.
Heel formation
This is the most important part of the product. Here you need to take care and constantly consider the loops and posts. It is necessary that the socks are the same.
In accordance with the scheme, the heel is formed inthe account of an equal section of a cloth of the rectangular form. Its width is about one-third of the entire width of the sock. In order to make it, you need to stop for the time building up the entire canvas and knit with return rows only the loops of the rectangle.
To get the correct and anatomically accuratesocks crochet (the diagram perfectly illustrates the process), it is necessary to finish the formation of the heel. To do this, only a portion of the bars are knit in the center of the rectangle. At the beginning and end of each row, they are simultaneously attached to the free edge of the rectangle. In this case, the number of columns gradually increases. The heel will be finished when all the loops of the rectangle are engaged.
Crochet socks for beginners: cuff scheme
The most difficult stage is passed, now you canContinue even knitting without additions. The first row is gathered along the entire perimeter of the sock (it now has the shape of a right angle). Next proceed to manufacture the cuff.
This site of the sock is very convenient for placingornament, pattern or other decorative elements. Warm socks crochet (the scheme can be different) it is better to continue to knit a solid pattern, as in the photo.
At the top of the finished sock, you should complete the strapping. It can be decorative or extremely functional (to prevent stretching the edge).
Crochet: socks. Patterns of openwork patterns
Socks, crocheted, became the object of creative experiments of many knitters. They are made using a variety of techniques, types of yarn and decor.
The most impressive can be called high knee, reaching almost to the knee, connected by a thin thread and openwork pattern. They look very feminine and are great for a gift.
The production of openwork golfs follows the same algorithm as described above. The pattern can be placed only on the cuff or on the front side of the golfcloth.
Since the cuff in the models under consideration is very long, it is necessary to provide for its correct expansion. The best method is to compare the knitting pattern with the pattern.
It must also be taken into account that on the upper edge of the golfs it is necessary to pass an elastic band or a string. Otherwise they will constantly slide.
