Art knitting napkins, tablecloths on the needles .... It sounds not quite usually. We are more familiar - crochet. We did not know the existence of a knitting napkin on the spokes on the knives. Partly due to the fact that there is very little information about this reception of knitting in the literature. Partly due to the fact that until today, people who are fond of them did not see.
Therefore, Andreyevna Berezkin seen in the house of Anna Andreevna, Berezkin from the village of Koromyslovo produced a strong impression
When looking at the air, light patterns of related tablecloths and napkins, which are literally everywhere: on the table, a shelf, bedside table, the trumpex - it seems that we got into the world of snow-white beauty. And in the world of beauty, shining not only with color, but also purity. Literally. Starting from the porch in the house of Anna Andreevna everywhere, an impeccable order, invisible with such a thoroughness that her interest in knitting does not seem surprising, because in this needlework accuracy - one of the main conditions for success.
Anna Andreevna originally from Pohshev, but fate ordered so that for many years she has lived in Karelia, in Petrozavodsk, and in the kingdom - the husband's homeland - comes only for the summer. I must say that the family of our heroine is also not quite usual. And Andrei Pavlovich Pavlov, Andrei Pavlovich Pavlov, was the first chairman of the farmer's collective farm, N.V. OGARKOV, whose name is the District Museum of Museum. And the first chairman of the collective farm "Motherland" was her husband's father. The grandfather of Anna Andreevna from the Father, as she says, for their family is a mysterious person. It is known that he was a military man, and unknown ... what his last name was. Attempts to learn about it in the archives were repeated, but the answer received the same - the secret of the name. Anna Andreevna Fifteen years made up a pedigree of his family, but the grandfather, unfortunately, remained in it a white spot.
But back to her lesson, which she was fascinated over forty years ago. It happened at the time when Anna Andreevna seriously and for a long time fell ill, and looking at the patient, who was crying all the time, the surgeon said: "Do not go, better - knit!". And she began to knit. Selozhivitsa at school, where Anna Andreevna, being a philologist for education, worked as a teacher of Russian, taught how to knit clothes. And then Anna Andreevna decided to sign up for courses, where the artistic knitting on the spokes taught the master who mastered him in Poland. From there, she brought numerous samples of patterns in German, to translate into Russian who Anna Andreevna asked her familiar to the German teacher. These yellowed leaflets with patterns of patterns, she still stores and considers them a real rare. Firstly, because they were created by German needlewomen, secondly, it is really a kind of unique schemes, similarities that you find on the Internet managed only on several sites. By the way, in the dreams of Anna Andreevna - publish a book with the patterns that she embodied in his openwork works, and go to Germany - to find more options for excellent ornaments.
In order to start an artistic mating, as our heroine advises, it will be necessary depending on the pattern from four to eight aluminum spokes (they are the easiest) №2.5, white cotton threads No. 10 or Snowflake. The thinner, thread, the one filigree lace. The main thing is not to deviate from the schema, where the knitting sequence is represented by symbols. Each error will result in a large alteration. And Anna Andreevna had to find a mistake, dissolve the product. But sometimes, for example, a tablecloth with a diameter of a little more than a meter, it knits for six months. Of course, not from morning to evening, but quite close.
The finished canvas it necessarily starch. It does it like this: erases him, then takes a small bowl, pours the water in her near the liter, puts two spoons of starch, puts on fire. From the moment of boiling with constant stirring, so that it does not fit, there must be three minutes. Naturally, a napkin or a tablecloth must be at this time in a bowl. Then the wet, slightly pressed product Anna Andreevna stretches for drying on any suitable plane, fixing the edges of the pins and giving it any desired form - round or oval.
She showed us a tablecloth, which lies with her on the table, is never a pretty, already four years old, but in appearance, as a new - snow-white, not lost form. This also seems amazing. As Anna Andreevna says, she erases his creations infrequently, only devils away from dust periodically.
Our heroine has two daughters, three granddaughters and grandson. And if the youngest granddaughter
Yaroslav is still pleased with its achievements in vocal art (recently she has become a diploma of the competition among passioned singing students of secondary special institutions of their city), then daughters, among other things, are also masters of knitting, like their mother. Anna Andreevna invites everyone who is interested in artistic knitting on the knitting needles to visit her - she will gladly show them and tell everything about it, as she believes, classes for the soul.
