Warm clothes are often knitted with dense patterns, which is so necessary for every person in the cold season. Coats, skirts, hats, blankets and sweaters made of thick yarn are made with these patterns, which will surely warm and give comfort during bad weather. In addition, another advantage of dense patterns is the ability to perfectly maintain their original shape.

These patterns are crocheted by weaving different types of posts. That is why there are a huge variety of variations of these thick and, as it were, knocked-down patterns, among which there are both unpretentious ordinary ornaments made of yarn, and weaving of threads of incredible beauty.

Dense crochet patterns - diagrams and description

Dense patterns are selected depending on the type of clothing and the author's ideas. Let us consider in detail some of the methods of knitting dense crochet patterns and schemes for their implementation, which differ in complexity. Let's start with the most simple dense patterns that even novice craftsmen can knit.

Knitting for beginners

Crocheting dense patterns by itself is considered a fairly simple task, since the fabric turns out to be thick because of them, and some even call them rough. Dense patterns are considered the complete opposite of delicate and airy openwork patterns, so beginners should start their acquaintance with this craft with dense patterns. These patterns are also convenient because they train inexperienced knitters to regularly perform fairly simple crochet manipulations.

• Single crochet pattern

The simplest dense pattern based on single crochets. The pattern begins with a set of air loops. The first column is knitted into the second loop from the hook (one lifting loop).

1st row: 1 lifting loop, * 1 single crochet for one loop wall *;

2nd row: 1 lifting loop, * 1 single crochet "in a loop" *.

All other rows are knitted like the second row.

• Long single crochet

This pattern is very similar to the previous one, so it is just as easy to knit, and the fabric from it turns out to be softer and more elastic than from simple single crochets. In addition, it will have something in common with openwork patterns due to the "gaps" between the elements.

Initial chain of air loops: 2 lifting loops, the first column is knitted in the third air loop from the hook.

Insert the hook into the loop, grab the working thread and pull it through the loop. The hook should have 2 loops. Crochet through the first stitch on the crochet hook.

Again, there should be 2 loops on the hook. Tie a column by pulling a working thread through the remaining 2 loops. Next, knit columns in each loop of the row.

• Bosnian pattern

A very dense pattern that does not stretch in width but does stretch in length. This pattern is crocheted with half-columns for the back wall of the loop. You do not need to knit a lifting loop, but the first column in a row is always knitted by both walls of the loop in the first loop from the hook.

1st row: half-column "in the loop" * 1 half-column behind the back wall of the loop *.

The vertical pattern rapport is one row.

Hat ideas

A good choice would be a dense crochet pattern for a hat. Since the purpose of this product is to keep the head warm and protect the hair from wind and frost, it is better to knit hats with dense patterns. Consider several good options for dense patterns for crocheted hats.

• Bicolor waves

Nice dense pattern that looks good on hats.

The number of air. n. of the typesetting chain in multiples of 3 + 1 + 2 air. n. lifting.

1st row: 2 air. n. lifting, 2 tbsp. s / n in 1 p. of the base, skip 2 air. item typesetting chain, * 1 tbsp. b / n and 2 st. s / n in 1 p. of the base, skip 2 air. n. typesetting chain, repeat from *, 1 tbsp. b / n.

2nd row: 2 air. n. lifting, 2 tbsp. s / n in 1 p. of the base, * 1 tbsp. b / n and 2 st. s / n in st. b / n, repeat from *, 1 tbsp. b / n in air. n. lifting. Repeat 2nd p.

• Scales

A more complex pattern, but interesting and original in its form. Bulky scales are perfect for baby hats and scarves. A fairly large amount of yarn will go to the pattern. Let's take a closer look at how this unusual pattern fits.

Dial a chain of air loops, the number of loops should be a multiple of 6 + 1 vp. equalization + 2 vp lifting + 1 v.p. for the pattern. 6 loops of the air chain are one scale.

1st row: In the 7th air loop we knit 1 tbsp. s / n, 1 vp, in the same loop 1 tbsp. s / n, 1 vp, skip 2 base loops, in the next 1 tbsp. s / n, 1 vp, skip 2 base loops and knit 1 tbsp. s / n, 1 vp, 1 st. s / n in one loop. Next, continue the pattern alternating a single double crochet with a checkmark in one loop to the end of the row. The row should end with a single double crochet.

2nd row: 2nd row: Turn the work sideways with the loop on the hook up. Make a crochet on the hook and insert the hook under the first wall of the checkmark of the previous row, knit the first double crochet, also do 4 more tbsp. s / n (the number of columns depends on the thickness of the thread, if you chose a thin thread, then you need to increase the number of columns, if the thread is thick, then decrease). Further, without making additional loops, knit another 5 tbsp. s / n behind the second wall of the checkmark. Turn the work on the wrong side, i.e. mesh back to you and connect with a connecting column (half-column) to the loop of a single double crochet of the previous row. Turn the work with the pattern towards you again and knit 5 tbsp each again in the checkmark. s / n for each wall and reconnect the connection. Art. (half-st.) for a loop of a single st. s / n of the previous row. And so you do to the end of the row. Attach the last flake to the second air. Loop of the previous row.

Important: If you want to make leaves, not scales, then after knitting 5 tbsp. s / n behind the first wall of the checkmark, do 2 air items. and knit the connection. into the second loop from the hook, and then knit 5 tbsp. s / n behind the second wall of the checkmark.

3rd row: This row increases by 2 scales. When knitting a pattern, you will have alternating rows, sometimes more or less scales, but at the same time, on the back moan, the canvas will have an even appearance, and you can easily connect the parts. Start the row with a set of 3 vp. for the first tick of a new row + 1 vp. and knit the first double crochet in the same loop where the air loops began, ch 1, knit a double crochet in the middle of the scale, ch 1 tick again between the scales and so on until the end of the row. At the end of the row, we knit a check mark in the last loop.

4th row: Repeat the Scales pattern as in the second row. When the last double crochet is knitted in the last scale, then knit a connecting column in the middle of the scale, thus securing the end of the row.

5 row: It is necessary to reduce the number of scales again, so the set of a row begins with 3 air loops (this is a single double crochet) + 1 vp. and then again knit a check mark between the scales. The row ends by knitting a single column in the middle of the last scale.

6 row: knit the pattern again, as in the third row.

Thus, the scales alternate: sometimes more, sometimes less.

You can also knit according to these step-by-step photos:

Master class on creating patterns for a skirt

When choosing suitable options for knitting different models of clothes, it is often advised that a pattern is tight for a crochet skirt, since the finished product pleases its owner for a long time with its original shape, does not stretch, looks interesting and original, and most importantly, it does not freeze. Consider several options for patterns suitable for skirts.

• Seashells

Despite the slight tracery, the shells canvas is dense. This beautiful pattern is knitted with columns with one or more crochets in one loop, after which a single crochet is knitted, into which a fan is knitted in the next rows.

First you need to dial the number of loops that you need, but it must be a multiple of 6 and plus 2 loops (for lifting).

1st row: Knit a single crochet into the second stitch from the hook, then skip 2 stitches and knit a single crochet stitch 5 times in the next stitch. Skip the next two stitches and knit a single crochet into the third loop, then skip 2 stitches and knit the fan again. And so it fits to the end of the row.

2nd row: 3 lifting loops are knitted and 2 more double crochets are knitted into the very first loop, i.e. in the last single crochet. 3 lifting loops replace 1 double crochet. Next, a single crochet is knitted into the third double crochet from the fan of the previous row. A fan is knitted into a single crochet of the previous row. Knitting continues until the end of the row. The row ends with three single crochets of the previous row.

3rd row: 1 air lifting loop is knitted and a single crochet is knitted into the first double crochet of the previous row. A fan is knitted in a single crochet of the previous row. Knit to the end of the row. The row ends with a single crochet in the third air loop of the rise of the previous row.

• Bumps

This dense openwork pattern is perfect for a summer skirt. The pattern is simple and knits pretty quickly. Let's consider the way of knitting it in more detail.

First you need to knit a chain of air loops of an odd number plus 3 loops for lifting. To knit "bumps" you will need to knit three double crochets in one and the same loop, without taking the last step, and then knit all unfinished double crochets in one loop. In a way, it is like subtracting.

In the fourth loop of the base, you need to knit 3 double crochets, but do not finish them, i.e. you make a yarn over the hook, insert the hook into the loop of the base and pull out the working thread, we have 3 loops on the hook, knit the first two and stop there. You have 2 loops on your hook. Again make a yarn over and from the loop of the base pull the working thread, for a total of 4 loops and again knit 2 loops and stop, in total 3 loops on the hook. Again yarn over and pull the working thread out of the base loop, for a total of 5 loops on the hook, knit the first 2 and you end up with 4 loops on the hook. Grab the working thread and pull it through all 4 loops. The cone pattern is ready. There may be more such columns in the "lump", then the pattern will turn out to be more magnificent.

The "knobs" pattern is mainly knitted through one air loop. Therefore, after you have tied the "bump", you need to make one air loop and skip 1 loop at the base, i.e. the next "bump" must be knitted into the second loop. And so it fits to the end of the row. Each row starts with 3 lifting loops, ends with knitting a "bump" in the third lifting loop of the previous row.

The second row is knitted even easier, there is no need to count, all the "bumps" are knitted through one air loop in the gaps between the "bumps" of the previous row.

• Rice fields

A beautiful dense pattern that will certainly catch all eyes on your new skirt. A big plus of this pattern is the simplicity of execution, since single crochets and double crochets are used to knit it. The pattern is tight enough, but not rigid, so it fits perfectly with a skirt. Its simplicity is also good in that it allows you to beautifully combine several different patterns on one canvas.

For the sample, a chain of air loops is recruited in a multiple of 2, plus 1 loop for the symmetry of the pattern, plus 2 lifting loops.

1st row: 2 lifting loops, * in the 3rd loop they knit 1 single crochet and 1 column with 1 crochet, skip 1 loop of the chain * knit 1 single crochet into the last loop of the chain;

2nd row: 2 lifting air loops, * 1 single crochet and 1 single crochet *, in the last air loop of the row knit a single crochet;

The subsequent rows are knitted in the same way as the second row.

What to choose for a coat?

A crocheted demi-season coat is also a very necessary thing in the wardrobe. And the ideal solution in this matter would be a dense crochet pattern for a coat. These patterns make you feel comfortable and confident. They retain their original shape, do not allow things to stretch, and perfectly retain heat. Moreover, many of them look very original on the finished product.

• Tunisian pattern

This pattern is considered ideal for knitting sweaters, cardigans, and most importantly, for coats. The fact is that the structure of this pattern does not allow heat to pass through, practically does not stretch and protects the thing from deformation. To make it clearer how to knit it, you should study this master class with step by step photos.

Important: For Tunisian knitting, a special long crochet needle is used, since, unlike other types of crocheting, in Tunisian knitting, all the loops of the row are located on the hook. The length of the hook must correspond to the width of the canvas, otherwise you will have to sew separate strips. The hook is held in the hand like a knitting needle. Some use a larger crochet hook than is needed for the selected yarn. This provides a slight amount of elasticity to the web. Tunisian crochet requires less yarn than traditional crochet. Loops should be knitted without tightening too much. When knitting, the fabric twists due to its high rigidity, therefore it is recommended to steam the knitted parts of the product before joining them.

We collect a chain of air loops. Starting from the second loop, pull out one loop from each link of the chain, leave them on the hook.

The number of stitches in the first row should be the same as the number of stitches in the chain. In the second row, we perform alternate closing of the loops. This row is also called "reverse".

We knit the first loop, then we close all the other loops in pairs. At the end, one loop should remain on the hook.

The first two rows are always knitted in the same way for each pattern in Tunisian knitting.

Next, we knit a rapport, it consists of two rows. The first row is the capture of the loops (they also say that Tunisian knitting is knitting "in a set"), the second row (reverse) is the closure. Knitting is not turned on the wrong side, the fabric is always knitted on the front side.

To capture the loops, it is necessary to straighten the first two rows and clearly mark the protruding vertical broaches, or they are also called Tunisian columns. We insert the hook from right to left through the broach one by one, grab the working thread on the front side and pull it out.

Thus, we collect the loops on the hook again. Make sure that the loops on the hook are the same height and not tightened. In the second row, we close the loops in pairs, not forgetting that we close the first one, so we raise our rows.

• Flower meadow

Another option for knitting a charming dense pattern in the form of a floral motif with braids. This pattern is quite complex in execution, but it will look great on knitted coats, sneakers, leggings and many other warm things.

Abbreviations in the knitting pattern:

vp- air loop;
Sc- single crochet;
SS- connecting post.

The pattern is repeated every 4 rows. In the 1st and 3rd rows, there is an alternation of elastic bands from SS and berries, and in the 2nd and 4th rows only SS is knitted.

Important: when knitting a pattern, knit all the loops behind the back wall of the loop.

Progress:

Dial 23 VP (3 loops for an elastic band, 4 loops for a berry, 4 loops between berries, 4 loops for a berry, 4 loops for a space, 3 loops for an elastic band, 1 loop for lifting) (photo 1).

1 row(front side): the first SS in the second ch. from the hook, SS in the next. two loops (photo 2), then the berry is knitted: * 1 sc in the next. loop, 1 vp, now you need to find the front leg of the just knitted RLS (see the next figure and video below) (photo 3) make a yarn, insert the hook into this left front leg of the RLS, grab and pull the thread, grab the thread again and pull it through 2 loops on the hook (there are 2 loops left on the hook), i.e. the so-called unfinished double crochet was knitted (photo 4).

Then you need to make a yarn over again, insert the hook there (the front leg of the RLS), pull out the thread, grab the thread again and pull it through 3 loops on the hook at once (there are 2 loops left on the hook), i.e. as if a half-column was connected with a crochet, skip one loop (for the 1st row - one VP of the initial chain) (photo 1) insert the hook into the next. loop, pull the thread (3 loops on the hook), grab the thread and pull it through all 3 loops on the hook (photo 2), BN in the next. loop. * The berry is ready (photo 3). We make 4 CCs (photo 4), a berry (repeat from * to *), 4 CCs for a gap, 3 CCs for an elastic band.

2 row(seamy side): 1 vp. lift, SS to the end of the row (22 SS in total). To make the back walls of the loops better visible, you can hold the knitting vertically (photo 1). Be sure to recalculate the number of CCs to avoid mistakes. Remember to knit the CC on the last stitch of the row, which is ch. lifting the previous row (photo 2). 3rd row: 1 vp lifting, 3 SS for the elastic band, 4 SS for the gap (photo 3), 4 SS, berry, 3 SS for the elastic. (the berry has shifted in a checkerboard pattern) (photo 4).

4th row: Knit as 2nd row.

Repeat rows 1-4 to continue the pattern.

Simple openwork pattern

Among the dense patterns there are openwork ones, which, due to their multilayer structure of yarn, create the effect of relief and airiness. A similar openwork dense crochet pattern is used both for knitting winter or demi-season things, and for creating summer clothing models. In this case, the decisive role will be played by the density of the yarn, which is responsible for the "openwork" of the dense pattern. Consider several knitting patterns for such ornaments.

• Openwork motive

This simple pattern will also change its functionality depending on the thickness of the selected yarn, which means the product will be more "open" if the yarn is thin, and denser if the threads are thick.

In order to start knitting, you need to cast on an odd number of chain stitches plus 3 air loops for lifting.

1 row: in Knit the 4th chain loop of the initial chain with 1 tbsp. s / n. * 2 unfinished art. s / n with one top (1st st. s / n in the same vp as the previous st. s / n, skip 1 vp, 2nd st. s / n), 1 st. s / n in the same loop of the initial chain as the second incomplete art s / n *. What is in ** this is our pattern. We knit it to the end of the row. The row ends with knitting completed art. s / n in the loop, where the second unfinished art was tied. s / n.

2nd row: knit 3 vp for lifting. Knit 1 tbsp. s / n in the first st. s / n of the previous row. * 1 tbsp. s / n to the top of the unfinished sts knitted together. s / n of the previous row, 2 unfinished st. s / n as in the previous row through 1 loop *. Finish the row with 1 tbsp. s / n to the top of the unfinished sts knitted together. s / n of the previous row and another st.s / n in the last st. s / n of the previous row.

The pattern is repeated from the 2nd row.

• Wonderful pattern

This crochet pattern also turns out to be both dense and openwork. It will look good on summer skirts, T-shirts, blouses, demi-season hats. Here, too, the density of the pattern and the degree of openwork depends on the thickness of the yarn.

In order to start knitting, you need to dial a chain of air loops in multiples of 3 plus 2 air loops for lifting.

1st row: It is necessary to knit 2 tbsp. s / n in the 4th century initial chain. Then skip 2 vp. and 3rd knit a pattern * 1 tbsp. b / n, 2 st. s / n *. Skip 2 vp again. and knit the pattern until you have 4 stitches left. Two vp skip, and in the 3rd and 4th you knit one st. s / n.

2nd row: Knit 2 vp. for lifting. Skip the first art. b / n. (i.e. knit in the first st. s / n of the previous row) and in the second knit 2 st. s / n. Next, a pattern is knitted * 1 tbsp. b / n, 2 st. s / n * in a single crochet of the previous row. The pattern is knitted to the last single crochet of the previous row. The series ends with the fact that in the first st. s / n of the previous row is knitted 1 tbsp. s / n and another art is knitted. s / n in vp lifting the previous row.

The pattern is repeated from the 2nd row.

Crochet fishnet patterns

Nice openwork pattern for crocheting jackets, pullovers, blouses, tops.

Pattern scheme

Interesting pattern of crossed columns

A very interesting pattern of crossed groups of crochet stitches.

Knitting is very simple: the first group of 3 CCHs is knitted through an arch from vp. the previous row, and the next group into the previous arch. It turns out very beautiful and unusual.

Colored knitting is very attractive, and how beautiful openwork patterns look in color with a highlighted pattern repeat vertically. I propose to consider a method of crocheting colored openwork patterns, similar to colored intarsia knitting. With this method, it is better to select patterns with a linear pattern repeat in order to highlight the vertical openwork pattern with color. Each color stripe is knitted from a separate ball of thread, therefore, dividing the pattern into several stripes, each needs its own skein of yarn. The knitting method itself is very simple and consists only in changing the color in knitting.

So, for knitting a color sample, a "spider" pattern was selected, for example, three patterns of a pattern are connected with different colors of yarn.

We collect a chain of air loops, in the first row, tie the first rapport with the same thread. Then, after finishing the rapport with a double crochet, attach a new thread. To do this, form a starting loop from the thread of a new color and pull it through the working loop on the hook, like an air loop. Mask the end of the attached thread, secure and cut. Continue knitting with the second rapport attached with thread. Next, also change the thread for the third pattern repeat.

In the second row, having finished knitting the first rapport, after the air loop, knit a double crochet with a thread of medium color. To do this, remove the old thread, and make a yarn over the hook with a new thread,

then insert the hook into the loop, grabbing the new thread, pull the loop,

grabbing the thread again, knit all the loops to the crochet, grab the thread again with the crochet and knit all the loops on the hook.

Thus, the post is tied with a new thread, and the broach is almost invisible. If necessary, pull up the loop of the old thread and continue to knit the second rapport with the yellow thread.

In the third row, also do a color change when knitting the first double crochet of the next pattern repeat. To do this, remove the old thread, make a yarn over the crochet hook with a new thread. s / n, and knit the double crochet with a new thread.

When knitting, do not get confused, because each color strip has its own ball, so when you turn over the work, it is better to shift the balls sequentially.

Once you've finished knitting, secure each thread color.

The colored pineapple pattern looks very attractive with vertical wavy stripes.

And further...

Vortex Pattern

We bring to your attention a charming crocheted napkin. It resembles a forest clearing, which is located at the edge of the forest. In the center of the napkin a large flower has blossomed, and around it are lined up in a circle of smaller flowers. The napkin is knitted with two shades of yarn, which gives it beauty and tenderness.

To crochet a napkin from flowers, you will need the following materials: yarn of pink and white shades or any other, combined with each other, a crochet by the thickness of the yarn, scissors.

The approximate size of the finished napkin is 18 centimeters.

We begin to knit a napkin of flowers from the central one. It is knitted from the center in a circle. Next, we knit small flowers. When knitting each last row of a small flower, combine it with a large one. The napkin knitting pattern is shown in the figure below:

Remember to alternate the color of the yarn when knitting. A crocheted napkin with flowers should be starch before use. Good luck to you!

Do you still wash dishes with regular sponges (napkins)? Disorder, since a real knitter has to knit them. For example, these are shown in the figure above. Crocheted dishwashing napkins turn out to be colorful, cute, beautiful. They are knitted from microfiber yarns. It is very convenient and practical, as the microfiber is easy to care for. Any contamination can be easily removed from it, as well as it does not wipe, does not peel, and is resistant to light and chemical effects.

Interested? Then let's get to work. Multi-colored yarn with microfiber, a crochet hook according to the thickness of the yarn, as well as scissors, that's what you need to knit napkins. All selected yarn must be of the same thickness and texture, otherwise the napkin will turn out to be curved.

Knitted dishwashing napkin has the shape of a flower. The figure below shows a knitting pattern for a napkin:

The napkin is knitted from the center in a circle. When knitting, do not forget to alternate the colors of the yarn so that it comes out multi-colored.

Actually, all crocheted dishwashing napkin is ready!

The first time, looking at such a crocheted napkin, I immediately had a desire to knit the same for myself. She is delicate, airy and very beautiful. The napkin is square. You can safely decorate a table, shelf or chest of drawers with such a napkin. Also, by imposing such napkins and connecting them together, you can get a wonderful tablecloth, or a curtain.

In order to crochet a square napkin, you will need the following materials: plain cotton yarn, a crochet hook according to the thickness of the yarn, scissors. Although the napkin is square, it is knitted from the center in a circle. The following figure shows a knitting pattern for a napkin:

Pay attention to how the first row fits. You must first knit one st. s / 5n, then 2 tbsp. s / 2n in the third loop of st. s / 5n. Then 5 VP is knitted. We repeat this 8 times. In total, you will need to knit 19 rows in a circle.

The crocheted square napkin is ready. Before using such a napkin, it will need to be starch. This way the knitted napkin will keep its shape better.

crochet

Three leaf patterns that can be useful for crocheting a wide variety of things. Take it to the piggy bank, who needs it.

Every woman has a crocheted thing in her wardrobe; such products are distinguished by an endless variety of openwork patterns that cannot be paid attention to. Crocheting itself is considered an attractive applied art and there are few people who do not own such needlework, for sure at least one thing connected with their own hands. Learning to own a crochet is not difficult, the main thing is to correctly and carefully follow the elements indicated in the diagram. Another point is the correspondence of the threads and the number of the hook, so that the patterns are clear and even.

Choice of thread and crochet

Knitting a beautiful thing is the dream of every knitter, but no one thinks that the process can become tedious and annoying due to the wrong hook or yarn. The thickness of the threads is selected according to the size of the hook. For knitting, cotton threads are used, some of them have a synthetic or silk insert, this allows you to quickly do the job and gives the product expressiveness and shine.

Depending on the density of the thing being created, the threads are selected of the appropriate thickness. The thinner they are, the easier and more delicate the canvas will turn out. Napkins and thin summer blouses for women require threads with sizes 20 and 30, but for oversized and dense things, yarn of 10 is used. You also need to seriously approach the choice of a hook, firstly, pay attention to the number indicated on the package or on tool, and secondly, the strength of the handle, it can be plastic or wooden. The hook is selected from durable, non-bending stainless steel.

The peculiarity of the crochet hook is summer openwork items made of fine yarn

Summer is the hot season of the year and woolen clothes are inappropriate here if it is not an openwork blouse or top. They are knitted from fine yarn, for which a suitable hook is selected. Spider webs of thin threads are created using a hook with a diameter of 0.6 to 1.5, but if a more effective pattern is being made, it is better to take a frequently used thin yarn and a hook in the size of 1.5 to 2.5. It is advisable to use a metal tool with the correct tip; it should not be sharp and slippery when gripping the thread.

Hooks for fine yarn have a short length to the handle so that the loops do not turn out to be elongated, and this can disturb the texture of the pattern. A flattened handle is considered more convenient than a round one, does not press so much on the fingers and does not allow the tool to slip

Patterns

The selected pattern affects the thickness of the canvas and the softness. If a jacket or cardigan is performed with embossed flowers, then the pattern is knitted tightly. But blouses or jackets with lace, which do not hide underwear, top or shirt, must be done with openwork motifs. Crochet allows you to create many patterns of clothes: blouses, skirts, dresses, hats, etc.

Knitting techniques

Any pattern when crocheting is done in several ways:

• air loop (the main knitting element, forms a chain from which any product begins);
• yarn (thread is thrown on the hook, where there is already a loop, the more yarn-overs, the higher the column);
• half-column (a loop is removed from the previous row and knitted together with a loop on the hook);
• column (knitted with a crochet and without a crochet); pico (edge ​​binding).

In order not to get confused in these details, they make diagrams with the designation of each element. Sometimes you have to make complex patterns, like in the broomstick knitting technique, here you use an additional long object (knitting needle or ruler). The task of the technique is to perform even large air loops, which are then tied in a bundle with five single crochets, while forming an eight.

But for the Tunisian pattern, a selection of a long hook is needed so that it is convenient to hold like a knitting needle or a pencil. The fabric is knitted only on one side, it does not turn over, as when knitting. Here, one row is knitted from left to right and, conversely, from right to left. In the front line, the loops are knitted immediately, and in the purl, all the loops are first thrown onto the hook, and then they are knitted one at a time. The choice of the crochet does not correspond to traditional knitting, if for the selected yarn you need hook number 2, then according to the Tunisian technique, 2.5 is taken.

There are also a lot of patterns that are knitted using a special technology, and each is interesting in its own way. And in the catalog things are presented as unique, since the pattern and style of the product are combined.

Thin fiber is the best material for creating an airy, beautiful lace fabric. There are many interesting models of clothing or items for interior decoration that can be knitted from thin threads. Let's take a closer look at this issue.

In order to start the manufacturing process, you need to be well prepared. And for this you need to follow these steps.

• Find the right model.
• Select material and tool.
• Take measurements and build a pattern.

Reference! If you are not a professional needlewoman, then be sure to make a pattern and knit a pattern swatch. This will not only avoid errors in the calculation of the canvas, but also help to avoid alterations.

Which hook to choose

One of the most important points is choosing the right tool. It depends on the following factors:

• the selected pattern;
• thread thickness.

The second point is especially influential. To find out if a given size is suitable, you need to fold the thread in half and compare its volume with the volume of the hook head.

Most manufacturers also include preferred sizing information on the label..

Another option is sample matching. It is used when there are several types of yarn and you need to choose one that is most suitable for creating a pattern.

Patterns for fine threads

For fine threads it is advisable to choose delicate openwork patterns... The most suitable options for such patterns are as follows.

Flower canvas

Shells and fans

Ribbon lace

Sirloin knitting

Reference! In order to understand if the pattern you have chosen is suitable, knit a pattern. You can make several elements with different patterns and choose the most suitable one.

Knitting ideas from fine threads

There are many options for models knitted from a thin thread. And contrary to popular belief, you can make from this material not only summer clothes, but also a winter version... It will depend on the seasonality of the material. For example, cotton is for summer, and thin mohair or angora is for smart winter clothes.

This fiber is used to make wonderful decorative elements to create a cozy and warm atmosphere in your home... These are airy tablecloths, and small napkins, and even charming curtains for windows or doorways.

For adults

From this material, you can knit a lot of unusually beautiful new items for a woman's wardrobe. Airy, delicate items will emphasize feminine beauty and charm. Let's walk through the creation of several variations with a detailed example.

On a summer evening

The weather of a summer evening is very deceiving: it seems to be warm enough, but a breeze swoops in and brings night coolness with it. The best clothing option for an evening walk is this variation.

Dress "Summer marshmallow"

The dress is made of cotton yarn with parameters of 500 m / 100 g and hook number 2.5.

Completing of the work

• Tie the required number of motifs for the upper part, connecting them when knitting the last row into a single fabric.

• Run the belt along the bottom of the upper part.

• Make sleeves according to the same pattern: motives, and a pattern of the bottom of the hem.
• Perform neck strapping according to the scheme.

For the cold season

Not only summer clothes, but also beautiful warm dresses can be knitted from thin yarn.

Dress "Mohair haze"

For the implementation, you need a thin mohair and a suitable tool.

Reference! For greater splendor, the skirt can be made in two layers. In this case, the lower layer is made of a contrasting material.

For a beach holiday

Going to the beach, we do not want to wear a lot of clothes. These flirty shorts will help you become a noticeable figure.

The variation is made of cotton.

• Sew the pattern to your size.
• Tie a strip with motives.

• Run the belt along the top. To do this, tie several rows of CCHs and, bending half of this section to the seamy side, carefully sew. Insert the rubber band inside.
• Run a frill along the bottom.

For kids

By tying a charming new thing to your fidget or princess, you will show your care and desire to dress up your child.

Blouse "Summer lace"

Follow the pattern along the shelves, back and sleeves. Combine them into a single piece. Tie the edges of the shelves with several rows of RLS. Sew a button and an eyelet to the top of the shelves.

At the exit of your beauty, you can knit such a sundress.

T-shirt with a boat

Completing of the work.

• Tie a wave and a boat in front of the product with a sirloin mesh with a pattern.

• Knit the back with a fillet net without a pattern.
• Sew shoulder and side seams.

Fine threads and a crochet hook for decoration

Fine thread products are great for transforming the interior of a room. This is especially true for tablecloths and curtains.

Tablecloth

After manufacturing, produce WTO products and, if desired, lightly starch.

For the kitchen, you can make such interesting curtains.

As you have seen, thin threads do not limit the possibilities of needlewomen!

The assertion that learning to crochet is easier than knitting is highly controversial. However, there is no doubt that the hook opens up many more possibilities. For many knitters, knowing how to crochet makes it much easier to get more of the work planned.

Dense patterns

Despite the fact that crochet is primarily associated with airy openwork, there are situations when you cannot do without a solid canvas. In such cases, it turns out that it is not so easy to find with schemes.

If you need to make opaque knitted elements, you can use knitting needles, but this option is not always suitable. Knitted fabric is thinner and more elastic. In addition, tightly knitting a thin thread with this tool is very inconvenient and takes a long time.

What are dense ornaments for?

Based on practice, you can indicate the areas of application of solid patterns intended for crocheting:

1. Making warm garments. Winter hats, mittens, sweaters, dresses - all this should be connected without unnecessary holes and laces.
2. Scarves. This clothing is taken out as a separate item, since scarves need double-sided dense crochet patterns (the schemes are suggested below).
3. Interior items. rugs, some models of pillows need a continuous canvas through which the lining is not visible.
4. Swimwear and opaque items
5. In order to "dilute" the openwork pattern. Sometimes the combination of several rows of lace mixed with a dense pattern allows you to create a new unique pattern.

The specifics of the choice of yarn for solid patterns

Most yarns are suitable for crocheting tight patterns. The patterns are often designed for yarn with a thickness of about 350-400 m / 100 grams. This should be taken into account if the thread chosen for knitting differs significantly in thickness from this figure.

Too much will cause the canvas to become rough, overly dense and stiff. In addition, when knitting such products, a large load is created on the fingers and they can hurt. To avoid unpleasant consequences and still use a thick thread, you can use a large crochet hook (7 or more) and try to knit freely.

A thread with parameters over 400 m / 100 grams is classified as thin. For example, the thickness of mercerized cotton is 560 m / 100 grams. Knitting solid patterns with such a thread requires the use of a very thin hook (from 0.9 mm) and tight knitting. Otherwise, the knitted canvas will turn out to be openwork and will not fulfill its function.

Crochet: dense patterns. Schemes from the must have category

Elementary solid patterns are formed by combining different columns. It can be a traditional stitch, including single crochet (RLS) or single crochet (CCH). A feature of such patterns is the absence of air loops (VP). An example is the ornament in the photo below.

It consists of "bushes" and the rows of RLS separating them. The given sample is made in color, but more often it is used in a monochromatic version. It can be called a lifesaver for many knitters.

And in this modified pattern, the VP and the element of openwork are already present.

This scheme can be easily adapted to obtain a dense fabric. It is enough to replace the VP with the CCH, then the "leg" for the bush will contain not three CCHs and five CCHs, but eight CCHs.

Dense crochet patterns, the schemes of which are presented below, are also based on the CCH. This technique allows you to create a really dense canvas. The essence of the method is that not the upper part of the column of the previous row, but its main part is used as the basis for volumetric CCHs. The hook starts behind the CCH and the thread is pulled behind it.

So knit convex CCHs.

Zigzag dense crochet patterns: description and diagram

Wavy patterns are very convenient for making solid webs. Such ornaments are formed according to the same principle: adding loops at the peak of the wave and reducing the same number of loops in the trough. Zigzags have their own specifics and features:

• Zigzag dense patterns are difficult to cut, they create difficulties when knitting according to a pattern (cuffs of sleeves, necks, relief for the waist). Waves are best for knitting even fabrics.
• For the correct calculation of the loops, you need to knit a rather large sample, since a fully wavy pattern is formed after knitting about 5 cm of the fabric.
• It is necessary to strictly observe the number of added and reduced loops in each row. Ignoring such calculations leads to a gradual change in the proportions of the wave.

Wavy dense crochet patterns, schemes and a sample are given below, may be with minor holes in the canvas (as in the diagram).
