Knitting: snowflakes crocheted for the New Year

Many know perfectly how to properly fold a sheet of paper and then cut out of it a beautiful snowflake. But not all, preparing for the New Year, think about how to make the holiday more interesting and create truly unique jewelry not only for the tree, but also for decorating any corner in the apartment. For example, you can consider knitting a snowflake with a crochet as a simple and fascinating occupation, the result of which will be original pieces that will help give the room a unique look. Also, such jewelry, created by their own hands, will be an excellent gift for friends and acquaintances on New Year's Eve.

Knitting snowflakes is best to start at least a few weeks before the holiday itself. During this time, you can not only find a huge number of various variations on this topic, but also to come up with their own. The more different products will be made, the better, because they can be placed not only on the fluffy twigs of the New Year's beauty, but also on curtains, walls, doors, windows and even hang on the ceiling. Thus, hanging down at different levels, fluffy snowflakes will create the appearance of a beautiful snowfall.

The results that crochet knitting crochets can appeal to both masters and beginners. It's true that sometimes beginners may have some problems with understanding the schemes found in various sources, for example, such as knitting books, specialized thematic magazines or the Internet. Of course, there are generally accepted designations, but, nevertheless, there are significant differences, so it is better that the knitting pattern of the snowflake is not very complicated and with the most understandable explanations.

Most of all existing schemes consist of repetitive parts, which are called rapports. As a rule, these elements are described in the schemes, since the whole product is their repetition. Knitting crochet snowflakes also involves following the description of rapports. Also in the diagram image you can see various symbols that indicate the execution of certain loops. The basis of any product is the first row of air loops. They are usually shown as a black dot or a circle. The air loop is quite simple: a thread is pushed onto the finger, a hook is brought under it and, turning it from left to right so that a loop is formed, is withdrawn. In the same way, continuing to pull all subsequent loops, a chain of a certain length is typed. Another main element is the bars. When knitting crocheted snowflakes, they can occur very often. Columns are connecting, polustolbiki, columns without a crochet and columns with nakidami, one or several. The connecting column on the diagrams is usually denoted by the letter "T". To do this, the hook is inserted into the loop, then the thread is thrown on it and through two loops it is pulled out. A column without a crochet is sewn as follows: a hook is inserted into the loop, then a thread is pushed onto it and withdrawn, then the procedure repeats, and the hook is withdrawn after two loops. As a rule, before the next to such elements at the end of the previous line, make one air loop. The same goes for the row with the crochet, but there are already two air loops. The column with the crochet is very similar to the previous element, only before the hook is inserted into the loop, the working thread is thrown onto it. Columns with several crochets are knitted similarly, performing a predetermined number of thread throws on the hook before it is inserted into the loop. There are many different elements, but these will be enough for knitting simple schemes, especially for beginners. Even with such a set of loops, you can create a beautiful enough and original product.
