Very many needlewomen, especially beginners, are constantly faced with a lot of errors when knitting products with braids and arana crochet. Because of them, many refuse their use in their works. And in vain! Today we want to tell you about the most frequent mistakes when knitting Kos and Arana crochet and how to avoid them.
The first and most important is the wrong choice of yarn.
Here are some tips how to choose yarn correctly:
- Do not take too thick yarn - I advise you to take the yarn with a metro station not lower than 300 meters per 100 grams, or 150 meters in 50 grams.
- This concerns the knitting of the canvas exclusively with relief columns.
- Do not take too tough yarn - when buying yarn just touch the dog with your hand and feel what she is on the touch. The yarn is softer and more pleasant - the better it will go to knit and the canvas will not be tough.
- Do not take too durable yarn - mohair and other high voltage threads are prohibited. Juzor simply will not be seen.
Incorrectly selected hook size for knitting.
- When you knit the product exclusively with embossed columns, the hook must be taken by several sizes more from the recommended one.
- For example. If you use a hook of 2 mm when knitting, you use a 2 mm hook, then when knitted with relief columns, the hook should be 3 - 3.5 mm.
- Then your product will not "stand with a stake," and will become soft and elastic. An additional bonus - reduce yarn flow)
- If you knit braids and Arana on the canvas from the columns with Nakud, then the hook, according to the recommendations on the yarn label, or follow the personal experience. BUT!!! - Kosh themselves can be free, somewhat pulling the thread.
- Then it will not be how the difference in the height between the relief and ordinary columns will be visible, the holes in the places of overweight will be not as noticeable, it will not be tightened with the cloth in width, the edges of the product will not be fused.
Too few nakidov in places of overweight when knitting brass.
Add Nakda if you see that the canvas is tightened, even if there is a smaller amount in the knitting circuit. This is especially true for those needlewomen who knit tight.
Each has its own density of knitting. After all, even those who come up with these schemes draw them "under their hand."
Guided by personal experience I can give a few tips:
- In Kosy on 2 - 4 columns - in places of overweight, knit columns with 1-2 Nakid.
- In braids on 6-8 columns - columns with 2-3 camids.
- In braids by 10-12 columns - columns with 3-4 nakis.
These are the most basic and most common mistakes when knitting brass and Aran Crochet. All smooth looping and beautiful models!
