Downy shawl: knitting pattern (description)

Despite the abundance of various modern models, patterns and ornaments, the feather shawl is consistently high in popularity. The knitting pattern of such an article can be extremely simple or extremely complex. Designers make patterns for knitters with different skill levels. Therefore, you can find products associated only with facial loops or, conversely, including a whole series of ornaments.

In general knitting of downy shawls with knitting needles, schemes and descriptions of which are designed for beginners, does not differ in complexity. It is important only to monitor the uniform density. More complex models require certain experience, imagination and knowledge of geometry.

Kinds of downy scarves: Orenburg tenderness

The need for a man in warm clothes led to the fact that he began to actively use fur, wool and fluff of various animals. Along with the fur items of the wardrobe, the knitted things, containing wool of sheep, the fluff of rabbits, goats and other artiodactyls, warm well.

Today the most popular are two types of scarves: Orenburg and Voronezh. The first one is a fluffy scarf-cobweb. The knitting pattern of this accessory is usually an openwork, but it is made of very thin, fleecy strings (hence the name "spider web"). The finished product has extremely low weight, but has excellent heating properties.

For the Orenburg shawls, the wizards choose mohair or angora with a thread thickness of about 250 m / 25 grams. In this case, the needles are fairly thick: not less than 4 mm.

How to knit classic Voronezh scarves

Traditionally, these accessories are given a rectangular shape. Center knit some simple pattern

Craftsmen select any elementary pattern or even a handkerchief to make the central part, and then decorate the downy shawl. The knitting pattern can be quite openwork or relatively dense. Unlike Orenburg shawls, Voronezh's are heavier and more voluminous.

Pooh of Voronezh goats

Yarn from soft goat hair is used for work. The region is proud of its achievements in the field of breeding a certain breed of animals, as well as fluff processing technologies. The wool of such goats is light, soft, silky and long.

Masters claim that the quality of fluff is revealed over time. The longer the product is worn, the softer and fluffier the downy shawl becomes. The knitting pattern does not affect "fluffiness", but the aesthetic appeal of the model depends on it.

Such handkerchiefs are not as delicate as the Orenburg ones. They are knit more densely. In addition, in the process of wearing the villi, the fluff is distributed between the loops and fills the lumens, so that the web becomes even less transparent.

Knitting pattern for a knitted headscarf with knitting needles for beginners

All craftsmen who only recently mastered the basic techniques of knitting, it is better to choose a simpler model to make a shawl, shawl or stole. According to the definition, handkerchiefs can be both quadrangular and triangular.

As an example of a simple pattern, below is a drawing with a schematic image of an elementary image. Here is a very simple principle of expansion.

Using this ornament, the craftsman can quickly create a downy shawl. The knitting pattern starts from the bottom.

The Importance of Quality Material

Yarn can be used absolutely any: if you choose a thin mohair, then the product will be delicate and delicate.

When a craftsman likes a hairy thread, and she wants to get a more dense product, you should buy the appropriate material. It is necessary to avoid poor-quality yarn and materials that relate to the economy segment. This is due to the fact that there are many artificial additives in inexpensive yarn, and natural fibers are not properly processed. As a result, the product will be stiff, coots will quickly appear, and the overall appearance will not be accurate enough. The search for yarn is the most important preparatory stage. From its results depends on how good the Orenburg or Voronezh downy shawl will come out. The knitting pattern and pattern in this case are of secondary importance.

In the description of the work, the following abbreviations will be used for convenience:

• Facial loop (Face P);
• The back loop (Rn);
• Nakid (H);
• Series (P).

How to tie a scarf with knitting needles

For the first P, five loops should be typed. Then you need to knit according to the above scheme, consistently adding two loops in each Person. R.

How to add:

1. At the beginning of P: remove the first П, make Н, further knit according to the scheme.
2. At the end of P: Without reinforcing the last P, do H, and then execute the Persons. P.

All Izn. P knit on the pattern.

Reducing the loops (one of the two turns out to be one) is indicated by an inclined line. To get a symmetrical pattern, you need to pay attention to the direction in which the line is inclined. If it is to the right, then it is necessary to perform the following actions:

1. Transfer the first П to the right knitting needle.
2. The second is to tie the faces.
3. Transfer the first P to the left spoke and put it on the second.
4. Transfer the formed P to the right spoke.

In the case when the slash points to the left, you should simply tie two П together and get one Face. P.

In the ordinary (flat cloth), the number of new elements is always equal to the number of reduced elements. Thus, the equilibrium and the total number of II in P are preserved.

But the triangular scheme is designed in such a way that the canvas gradually expands. Such an effect was achieved due to the fact that the balance between the addition and reduction of P.

The advantage of this pattern is its versatility: you can create a triangle of absolutely any size.

At the end of the work, you can tie several P garter stitch to create a neat edge.

Handkerchief with solid central part

One of the easiest ways to knit a scarf or shawl is to form a dense middle and openwork edges. In the photo below this model is presented.

For the central part, you can choose absolutely any pattern. If the foreman knows how the faces are performed. P and Izn. P, then she will not need a knitting card for knitting a plaid scarf with knitting needles. It is enough to type on the needles the right amount of P and knit all the elements like face loops. This applies to both Izn. P, and Individuals. R. At the final stage, all the PY's are closed.

Then a bound border is sewn to the finished canvas. More advanced and experienced knitters perform an openwork edge while knitting the central part.

Forming of the rim with knitting needles

The most fascinating is knitting with knitting needles of downy shawls and shawls, the schemes of which allow creating a beautiful, openwork edge with sharp teeth. Such products look especially gentle and airy. The picture below shows the crochet knitting pattern.

It is interesting that the calculations for the right and left side of the canvas are given. How to use the scheme:

• Type on the spokes the following number of P: 15 P for the rim on the right, X P for the central part (this figure must be calculated by each craftsman for their own product) and 15 P for the rim on the left. Each P is knitted in this order: P rims, then P of the central part, then P of the second part of the rim.
• To add II to the right side of the rim, the first P must be removed, the second P must be removed from the second, and then the scheme must be followed.
• An increase in the number of П on the left side of the rim: from the penultimate П, two П are bounded, then the last П is performed.

When knitting this pattern, you do not need to follow the slope of the shortened loops (they are indicated by even triangles). The inclined lines show how many P and where to close.

By and large, any delicate ornament is suitable to make a feather shawl. Knitting patterns with knitting needles (fringe or even edging) can be adapted for shawls or scarves.

The main requirement: the presence of a large number of holes. Then the finished product will be airy and light.

Shawl with openwork edge

Another simple variant of knitting a triangular shawl or kerchief. The photo shows a product with a solid central part and a simple border.

The width of the rim is 9 П in the narrowest place and 21 П in the widest.

Additions are made along two П along an open edge. Rapport (repeating part) ends with the closing of 12 P. Next, in the next rapport, the rim of the rim again expands to 12 P, which subsequently contract.

Thus, neat denticles are formed.

Final stage: wet-heat treatment

Given the specific composition of mohair or angora yarn, it should be treated with extreme caution. Do not use detergents with aggressive ingredients (chlorine), nor should you try ironing the canvas.

For the knitted product to take the desired shape, and all the loops aligned and straightened, the handkerchief should be washed in warm water (no higher than 30 degrees) with the addition of a soft agent. You can use special mixtures for washing delicate things. For the first treatment, you can simply dunk the handkerchief in the conditioner for laundry.

Then the product is gently squeezed (do not wring out) and unfolded to dry. Sharp teeth of the openwork border should be fixed with pins. In this case, after drying, the product will keep its shape.

In the event that you can not fix the shape of the kerchief in any way and it constantly crumples during the process of socks, it is permissible for easy steam treatment. In order not to damage the mohair's villi, the handkerchief should be spread out on a flat horizontal plane, pin all the protruding details and cover with a damp loose cloth. A calico or gauze will fit in several layers. Then you can already pass the product with steam from the iron or even put the iron on the surface of the kerchief. Put should be for a split second, immediately removing. Do not use an iron in any direction, otherwise the handkerchief will be deformed.

In order not to spoil the whole work, it is better to conduct experiments with a control sample.
