Knitting enterlak knitting
Smooth canvas, for example, plaid enterlak knitting needles, is not at all difficult to create.
The work can be done as a crochet, and knitting. The main characteristic point of this knitting style:
- The combination of the same geometric shapes of different colors;
- The relief of the canvas.
Before starting work, you should purchase threads of at least 2 colors.
Plaid enterlak knitting description
- It is enough to gain about 20 loops for a cloth 40 cm wide with needles 0.5, which is enough for the width of the loops with the 1st color.
- First row knit all the facial loops.
Further work we develop and we knit triangles so:
- 2 out. hinges - turn the work to the other side,
- 2 persons. hinges - turn again,
- From the first out. to connect 2 life, and 2nd - just life. and turn the canvas again,
- 3 persons. - to turn,
- Further we continue according to the plan, until there are 7 loops on the spoke. These hinges close the inside. go up again to the first 2 loops and turn again to the first row - to the next 2nd floor. loops, of which we knit gradually 7 loops of a new triangle.
As a result, we get triangles of 7 loops each. As soon as the first row ends, you should get 14 triangles. But, the number of loops will not change.
The work must be turned to the wrong side and fill the second color of the thread. Action Plan is similar:
- From the 1st of. - 2 loops, the next - just izn. - work to turn and all 3 loops knit facial.
- So continue until the needle has 7 loops - now we close these 7 loops to 2 and proceed to the next (3rd) loop of this row.
- When all the triangles are connected, the work needs to be turned to the other side, remove the thread of the 2nd color (i.e., only use the 1st color again) and repeat the process.
We finalize the canvas to the desired length and close it along the edge with normal wear. loops.
Such a blanket in the enterlak technique with knitting needles looks great on a bed, sofa, armchairs, it is pleasant to wrap yourself in cold evenings.
Enterlak Mat
According to the execution scheme, knitting of enterlak rugs is similar to making a smooth canvas of plaids or bedspreads. The only secret is that the rug in the finished form has a rounded shape. How to achieve this?
For example, for a small rug, you can dial a total of 10 loops and tie 5 elongated leaves of threads of different colors. At the same time, we define the dimensions of the leaflet on our own, and the form does not have to be correct - the relief bevels in triangles look very original.
It is quite effective if you alternate the threads by colors not in rows, but by leaves: we knit each new leaf with a different color.
We close each leaf completely and tear off the thread. When the last sheet will be ready, you need to connect them in a circle. We get a neat rug using the spokes in the technique of enterlak, which is appropriate to place near the cot or in other places.
Experienced knitters immediately make a conclusion about the technical simplicity of knitting in the style of enterlak. After all, there are no intricate patterns, nakidov and other moments - a simple knitting from the front / back loops.
The secret is only in careful counting the number of loops when tying the leaves. Although in the process of work it is also no longer necessary to consider - subsequent actions will be visible according to the pattern of mating.
