Crochet in one direction or in rows back and forth. Knitting in
one direction occurs in a circle. Any crochet
starts with knitting a chain.

Knitting loops with a chain or air loops

Place the end of the thread on the index finger of your left hand (Fig. 1).
IN
right hand take the hook so that the curved part is facing you.
Pass the hook under the thread located on index finger left
hands, hook it and turn the hook with thread counterclockwise,
so that a complete revolution is completed. The resulting crosshairs of threads
hold it thumb left hand. Pass the hook under again
thread lying on the index finger of the left hand (Fig. 2).
Hook the thread, pull it through the crosshairs and tighten. The first loop of the chain is ready.
For
knitting subsequent loops, pass the hook under the thread lying on
index finger of your left hand, hook it and drag it through the first
loop and so on (Fig. 3).

Half double crochet

Half columns
single crochet are used for knitting a dense and even edge of the product, and
also for connecting a chain into a circle and individual parts between themselves.
A half-column corresponds to 1 lifting loop.
Knitting a half column:

Chain


Crochet one chain stitch, then insert the hook into the third stitch from
the beginning of the row, starting the count from the air loop, and pass the hook under
thread on the index finger of the left hand. Hook the thread and
pull it through the loop of the chain (Fig. 4). There are now two loops on the hook.
Pull the loop located on the hook on the left through the loop that
more to the right. It turned out to be a half single crochet.

Single crochet

Column
Single crochet is knitted in the same way as a single crochet. See description
higher. The difference is that when two loops are formed on the hook
as in (Fig. 4), insert the hook again under the thread on the index finger
left hand and hook the thread (Fig. 5). Pull it through two loops.
The single crochet is ready (Fig. 6).

To knit the second
single crochet, insert the hook into the next stitch after the first stitch
loop and pass it under the thread on the index finger of your left hand.
Hook the thread and pull it through the loop, thus getting two
loops on the hook. Place the hook under the thread on your index finger again
left hand, hook it and pull it through two loops. That's how it turned out
second single crochet. So continue on.

Double crochet

Chain
from air loops, place the front one on the index finger of your left hand
side towards you. Hold the chain with your left thumb.
Knit two chain stitches for lifting and yarn over. For this
pass the hook under the thread on the index finger of your left hand and grab
thread (Fig. 7.)
Insert the hook with a loop and crochet into the fourth loop
chains, grab the thread and pull it through this loop. On hook
a loop, a yarn over and another loop are formed, that is, three loops (Fig. 8).

Knit
twice these three loops. First, knit a loop and yarn over together to
To do this, grab the thread with your hook and pull it through the double crochet loop.
There are now two loops on the hook (Fig. 9). Grab the thread again with the hook and
pull it through these two loops. So it turned out to be a double crochet.

Half double crochet

Half column
Double crochet is worked in exactly the same way as a double crochet stitch. See description
higher. The difference is that when you have three loops on your hook: a loop,
Yarn over, loop as in (Fig. 8), then you need to knit these three loops
together once. To do this, grab the thread and pull it straight through
three loops (Fig. 10).

Double crochet stitch

Column
with two crochets is knitted in the same way as a double crochet stitch. The difference is
that for lifting, knit three air loops and instead of one
Yarn over twice so that four loops are formed on the hook: a loop,
yarn over, more yarn over, loop (Fig. 11). These four loops need to be knitted in
three steps. First, pass the hook under the thread on your index finger.
left hand, hook it and pull it through the loop and the second yarn over, then
pass the hook under the thread again, hook it and pull it through the loop
and the first yarn over. After this, two loops will remain on the hook, which
need to be knitted together.

Convex and concave columns

Convex and concave columns are the same double crochets.
What is their difference? When knitting convex and concave columns, the hook is passed not through the loop, but between the columns of the row.

Convex

row from the front surface and at the same time bend around the column from behind (Fig. 12).
Concave
a column is obtained when the hook is passed between the columns of the previous one
row from the wrong side and at the same time bend around the column in front (Fig. 13).

Crayfish loops

For
To finish the edge, the technique of “crawfish step” or “crawfish” loops is often used,
giving the edge strength and good appearance. Unlike everyone else
In other crochet weaves, this type of knitting is performed from left to right.
Insert the hook under the loop away from you, pry the thread from below and pull it out
so that it is in front of the loop that is on the hook, then
knit both loops together (Fig. 14).

Long loops

Long
or elongated loops are knitted as follows: Tie a chain, and on
It is a row of single crochets. Turn knitting. Before knitting
long loop, take knitting in your right hand, bring thumb
left hand under the main thread and pull it towards you, pulling out the long
loop. Now take your knitting in left hand, so that the thread lies on
index finger of the left hand. Insert the hook into the loop of the row lying
to the left of the extended loop. Pass the hook under the thread lying on
index finger of your left hand and knit a single crochet (Fig. 15).
Release your thumb. Now you can knit the next loop.
The next row, after the row with elongated loops, knit in stitches without
Yarn over to secure the elongated loops. To continue the series you need
alternate.

Knitting circle

For
To make most crocheted toys you need to know how to knit

half single crochet into a ring. To do this, pass the hook through
first loop of the chain, hook the thread and pull it through two loops
(Fig. 16). Tie the ring with single crochets, placing the hook in the center
rings. In total you need to knit one air loop for lifting and 7
single crochets to make 8 stitches. Having completed the eighth
stitch, insert the hook into the chain loop with which you started the row. On
two loops are formed on the hook. Place the hook under the thread on your index finger.
finger of your left hand, hook it and pull it through these two loops, closing
thus the first row of the circle. Start the second row and all subsequent ones
also from an air loop. In the second row, knit one air loop and
15 single crochets, that is, 16 stitches in total, knitting on
each loop has two columns. Finish the second row with a half-column without
yarn over, connecting the loop from the 15th stitch with the chain loop of the beginning of the second
row. All subsequent rows also start with one air loop and
end with a half single crochet.
Number of columns in each row
equal to the number of columns of the previous row plus 8 columns, taking into account that
The first column in each row is an air loop. Circle knitting pattern
and symbols in (Fig. 17):

1 row 8 columns
2 row 16 columns
3 row 24 columns
4 row 32 columns
5 row 40 columns
The interval between additions also increases gradually:
2nd row - knit 2 stitches in each loop
Row 3 – knit 2 stitches in every second stitch
Row 4 – knit 2 stitches in every third stitch
Row 5 – in every fourth loop, knit 2 stitches and so on.

Loop structure
Air loop
Chain

Single crochet and double crochet are used as the basis for crocheting.
Air loop
(Fig. 1, 2) serves as the beginning of knitting, forming a chain of air loops,
which is a preparatory row and is used in knitting all
patterns.

To chain
did not tighten the knitted fabric, it can be done with a thicker crochet hook
and thickened threads. The hook is taken in the right hand, like a pencil, between
with your thumb and forefinger, turning the barb of the hook towards you. Thread
from the ball they place it on the index finger of the left hand, with the end towards you,
holding it with your thumb. The hook is inserted from right to left under the working
thread on the index finger of the left hand, then turn the hook
counterclockwise 360 ​​degrees and, without tightening the loop,
formed on it, with a movement away from you, throw the thread onto the hook. For
this, the head of the hook is brought from left to right under the thread on the index
finger, grab it and pull it towards you through the loop on the hook.
Having knitted the first loop of the chain, throw the thread on the hook and pull it through
through the loop on it. This is how the base chain of the required length is knitted.

When starting to complete the first row of the pattern, make several
chain air loops, which are called lifting loops. They
replace the 1st column of the new row. The number of lifting loops depends on
column height: the higher the column, the more loops rise.

Now let's consider loop structure crochet:

At
in crocheting, the loops of the knitted stitches are fixed and shaped
braids, which is the basis for knitting the next row.
The braid loop consists of the back and front walls (Fig. 3). A loop
located on the hook shaft is called the leading loop and is taken into account
it does not fit into the loops. If the description of the 1st row of the pattern says “knit
stitch in the 5th loop of the chain", this means that you need to count from
loops on the hook 4 loops of the chain and insert the hook into the next loop.

Half column
Half column
(it corresponds to 1 lifting loop) Used when knitting edges
product so that it is smooth and dense, and when connecting shapes. Knitting
it’s like this: the hook is inserted into the loop of the previous row, grabbed with the hook
working thread and pull it directly through the loop of the row
(chains) and a loop lying on the hook.

Single crochet
Column
Single crochet is also called a short stitch (it corresponds to 2 loops
rise). The hook is inserted into the loop of the previous row or chain (then in
2nd loop, not counting the loop on the hook), grab the thread and pull
loop. There are 2 loops on the hook. Again they grab the thread and
pull it through 2 loops on the hook.

Double crochet
Column
with a double crochet (it corresponds to 3 lifting loops). They throw a thread on
hook away from you, insert the hook into the loop of the previous row or chain
(then in the 3rd loop from the hook, not counting the loop on the hook), grab
thread and pull the loop to the level of the loop lying on the hook. On hook
3 loops have been formed - an elongated loop, a yarn over and a leading loop)
(Fig. 1a). Then put the thread on the hook again and pull it through
First 2 loops on hook (pull loop and yarn over), grab again
thread and pull it through the last 2 loops on the hook (Fig. 1b). On

with two yarn overs (4 lifting loops correspond to it). Make two yarn overs
on the hook (2 turns of thread), insert the hook into the loop of the previous row (or
4th loop of the chain), grab the thread and pull the loop through. On hook
4 loops were formed. Grab the thread and pull it through the first 2

loops (loop and yarn over) together (2 loops on hook). On the next loop
the bases perform the 2nd unknitted column. Yarn over and in one
The technique is to knit all three loops on the hook. Again they throw the thread on
hook and knit loops, securing the top of the column.

Triple double crochet.
Performed on three loops of the base according to the principle of knitting a double shortened stitch.

Double shortened stitch with 4 crochets.
Execute
according to the principle of knitting a double crochet stitch,
just make four yarn overs and knit them sequentially in 2 loops
in 5 steps.

Double crochet.
Having done
yarn over, hook is inserted into the loop of the previous row, grabbed and pulled
thread (as when knitting a double crochet), throw the thread on the hook and
knit two loops (loop and yarn over) together (2 loops on hook).
The result was an unknitted double crochet. Yarn over again and through that
The same base loop is knitted with a second unknitted stitch. Then again
Yarn over once and knit all 3 loops on the hook.

Triple double crochet.
Execute
according to the double crochet principle, only in 1 base loop
knit not 2, but 3 unknitted double crochets. Vertical
the line shows where the hook should be inserted.

Use
in floral patterns for knitting the core of a flower. In one loop
bases are performed sequentially with 3 loose double crochets (
there are 4 loops on the hook). Then knit 2-4 more unknitted double crochets
(the number of loops remaining on the hook from unknitted stitches,
will increase), after which the thread is thrown onto the hook and in 1 step
knit all the loops on the hook. You can perform triple unknitted
double crochets and double crochets.

the hook is inserted into the chain of the previous row and a long loop is pulled out
1-1.5 cm (repeat this 3-5 times in the same loop of the previous row). How
The more yarn overs, the more magnificent the column. Having made the last yarn over, stretch
thread through all the loops and yarn overs on the hook. To secure the lush

Lush unknitted column.
Use
in floral patterns for knitting the core of a flower. As well as in
in a lush column, pull long loops through 1 loop of the base and
make yarn overs between them. The loops on the hook are not knitted.
Then, having completed 2-4 lush unknitted stitches, throw the thread on
hook and knit all the loops on the hook in 1 step.

Crossed double crochet.
Knit 2 double crochets crosswise: first on the 2nd loop of the base, then on the 1st.

Crossed double crochet
(to him
corresponds to 5 lifting loops). Having made 2 yarn overs, insert the hook into the 6th
loop of the chain, pick up the working thread and pull it through this
loop (4 loops on hook). Pick up the working thread (Fig. 20a) and
knit 2 loops (3 loops on the hook). Without knitting loops on the hook,
Yarn over, insert the hook into the base loop through one loop to the left of
1st column, pick up the working thread and pull it through this
loop (there are 5 loops on the hook). Next, picking up the working thread (Fig. 20b),
alternately knit 2 loops 4 times (1 loop remains on the hook).
Make 1 air loop, yarn over and insert the hook into the center of the column,
grabbing 2 threads (Fig. 20c), pick up the working thread and pull
it through 2 threads of the center of the column (3 loops on the hook). Picking up
working thread, knit 2 loops 2 times (Fig. 20d).
These columns can form an independent pattern and be combined with other columns.

Pico (regular).
Do
4 chain stitches, then insert the hook into the 2nd chain stitch,
grab and pull the thread, then throw the thread on the hook and
knit 1 more chain stitch.

Pico down.
Execute
like a regular picot, only the chain of air loops is turned down.
To do this, knit a chain of 4 air loops and grab it with a large
and the index fingers of the left hand, slightly pulling down, and the hook
moving away from you, insert into the 2nd loop of the chain, grabbing and pulling
a thread. Next, knit 1 more air loop.

A closed ring of air loops.
A simple chain of chain stitches is knitted, then the loop on the hook is connected with a half-stitch to the first chain stitch of the chain.

The number of closed loops is usually indicated on the diagrams in a ring. This
a closed ring is usually the beginning of knitting round motifs,
napkins.

Long loops.
Tie
a chain, and on it a row of single crochets. Turn knitting, before
by knitting the second loop of the chain, grab the fabric with your right hand, and
Place the thumb of your left hand under the working thread and pull it a little
her on herself. Intercept the fabric with your left hand so that the end of the loop
located on the thumb, was brought to the hook, and knit
single crochet, then release your thumb from the loop. On
there will be a long loop attached to the canvas. Then pick up the canvas
with your right hand, pull the working thread with your left thumb,
forming a loop from it, and secure it by knitting the following
single crochet. Continue like this until the end of the row.
Knit the next row with single crochets - this is the securing row. Next, alternate these rows.

Knitting in the round.
For
To make most crocheted toys you need to know how to knit
circle. First, knit a chain of four chain stitches and connect
half-column into a ring. Then, inserting the hook into the ring and picking up
thread, knit 8 single crochets. Connect the first and last
half-column columns. In each next row, increase evenly
the number of stitches to be knitted so that their number is equal to the number
indicated on the diagram.
Each closed line in the diagram represents a row, and the number indicates the number of columns in that row.

Rachy step.
Single crochet is knitted from left to right.

Pattern repeat
Drawing
patterned fabric usually consists of repeating identical elements.
The part of the pattern that repeats is called a motif or rapport
pattern. In the diagrams, rapport is highlighted *...* - with asterisks.
For that
so that the pattern elements are arranged symmetrically and for the edge, usually
at the beginning or at the end of the row, make columns in additional loops
(the number of these loops is given in the description of each pattern, edge loops
are included in this number).
To record a pattern, you can use not only
text, but also diagram. Consider the diagram from bottom to top. All odd
rows (1, 3, 5, etc.) are read from right to left, all even rows (2, 4,
6th, etc.) - from left to right. Having finished knitting the motif in height,
continue to knit, reading the pattern from the 1st row (bottom to top). Sometimes a pattern
repeats from the 2nd, 3rd or 4th row.

For example:
Pattern 1 In this pattern, the number of loops should be a multiple of 9 (pattern motif) plus 2 additional loops.
If
in the sample the pattern motif is repeated 2 times, then the number of loops in the motif
multiply by 2 and add 2 loops. The sample is knitted according to the pattern: from the 4th row
The pattern is repeated from the 2nd row.

In crocheting there is such a thing as a raised stitch. Relief columns are convex and concave. Today we will learn how to crochet a convex stitch, it is also called a front relief stitch.

So, a convex column...

I would like to say that the principle of knitting this column is exactly the same as with one small difference. Now we will talk about this)))

How to crochet a convex stitch

1st row - We collect a chain of chain stitches and knit a “preparatory” row double crochets

2nd row - 3rd century. p. for lifting, yarn over, and insert the hook not into the loop of the column of the bottom row (as usual), but under the column of the bottom row itself, and from the outside side closest to you... We hook the working thread and pull it out, there are 3 loops on the hook... all... in that makes all the difference))) The most difficult thing for me here is to pull the thread on the desired height- “Don’t delay”

This is how it should look))) now we knit further, like a regular double crochet))) I.e. grab the working thread and pull it through two loops on the hook, grab it again and pull it through the remaining two loops...

The next column is exactly the same... Yarn over, insert the hook under the next stitch of the bottom row, pull out the working thread and then knit it like a simple double crochet.

In this way the row was completely knitted. The last stitch of the row is a double crochet in the lifting loops of the previous row.

The second and subsequent rows are knitted similarly to the first (insert a hook under the column itself on the side closest to you). Don't forget about the lifting loops and the last column of the row.

The last stitch of the row is a double crochet in the lifting loops of the previous row. Already after the second row, a relief stripe will appear on your sample.

And after several rows, if turn the sample, then it purely superficially resembles an elastic band, but only externally. It's a fairly tight knit and doesn't spring back.

What to use it for?... I have no idea))), I generally love everything light, soft, airy))) so come up with it yourself))) 😈 Although... I know)))

What patterns are embossed posts used for?

Relief columns are used to give relief (and this is logical))), for example, to different motifs from which, in turn, you can tie different products such as pillows, bedspreads... or you can knit them)))

By the way, in combinations that, again, only vaguely resemble an elastic band. And if you want to knit an elastic band that fully corresponds to its name, then read the article ““

Embossed double crochet can often be found in descriptions of execution various models crocheted. This is another one base element crochet. Sometimes a raised double crochet is simply called a raised double crochet.

There are two types of embossed double crochet: front (convex) and purl (concave).

Let's consider in parallel the execution of both types of embossed double crochet.

1. Cast on a chain of chain stitches. Knit the first row double crochets(Fig. 1).

Rice. 1. First row - double crochets.

2. Perform three lifting air loops (Fig. 2). Turn the knitting over.

Rice. 2. Three lifting air loops.

3. Yarn over the hook once (Fig. 3).

Rice. 3. Yarn over.

4. To complete embossed double crochet (convex) insert the hook behind the second column of the previous row (Fig. 4a, Fig. 4b).

In order to complete embossed double crochet purl (concave) insert the hook from front to back under the second post of the previous row (Fig. 5a and Fig. 5b).

5. Grab the working thread and pull it out (Fig. 6a and Fig. 6b).

a. b.

Rice. 6. Pull out the working thread.

6. Grab the working yarn again and pull it through the two loops on the hook (Fig. 7a and Fig. 7b).

a. b.

Rice. 7. Pull the working thread through two loops. There will be two loops on the hook.

7. Grab the working yarn again and pull it through the remaining two loops (Fig. 8a and Fig. 8b). There will only be one loop left on the hook.

a. b.

Rice. 8. Pull the working thread through two loops. There will only be one loop left on the hook.

The embossed double crochet is completed. Similarly, knit the following stitches to the end of the row, inserting a hook behind the next column of the previous row to completefront embossed double crochet , And inserting the hook from front to back under the next column of the previous row to completepurl embossed double crochet .

a. b.

9. A row made with embossed double crochets.

a. Front (convex) embossed double crochets.

b. Purl (concave) embossed double crochets.

By alternating one front (convex) embossed double crochet and one purl (concave) double crochet, you can get a pattern called “relief rib”. About how to knit embossed elastic band you can find out in the following material.

Structure of a crocheted loop

Air loop

When starting to complete the first row of the pattern, make several VP chains, which are called lifting loops. They replace the 1st column of the new row. The number of lifting loops depends on the height of the column: the higher the column, the more lifting loops.
