If you want to please your loved ones knitted socks that will warm them in the cold, reminding of your love and care, our photo and video tutorials will help you to understand this difficult matter. We offer you to learn from scratch and consider in detail how to knit for adults (male and female) and children.
So, how to knit (for beginners step by step) socks using two, five and circular spokes.
If you learn the basics, in the future you will not be afraid of beautiful products with jacquard pattern, unusual in the style of "patchwork", new models with braids, very cool with ornaments, etc.
Knitting socks on 5 spokes
This technique involves vyvazhivanie product without a seam. Socks are knitted in a spiral, resulting in a perfect lie on the leg.
Socks on five needles knit on top of the sock to toe, circular knitting, four needles loop gain, the fifth – working.
The number of loops is calculated based on the circumference of the leg.
Take two measurements of the leg:
1 – circumference of instep; centimeter measure the foot from the heel to instep on an inclined plane.
2nd-leg circumference; measured at the foot, at the thinnest point of the leg, above the bone.
Then we determine the average circle: add the circles of lifting and leg circumference and divide the resulting figure by 2. For example, the lifting circumference is 31 cm, the leg circumference is 21 cm; we get 31+21=52, 52:2=26 see on this number of centimeters and do calculation set of hinges. It is advisable to round the resulting number of loops to a number divisible by 4 so that it is convenient to knit on 4 spokes.
Dial the desired number of loops and distribute them on 4 needles and knit elastic circular knitted. Usually a rubber band 5-6 centimeters, but can be knitting and less – on desire. Then knit 7-8 cm to the heel of the front binding. The heel is knitted on two spokes of half the loops, and the other half is left on unused spokes. On two spokes knit fabric front viscous 5.5-6 cm, this is the height of the heel. Depending on the leg lift, it may be smaller, but starting at size 35, it is a constant.
Then, to give the heel shape, do the descent of the heel: all loops are divided into three parts. If there are extra loops, then attach them to the Central part (if the number of loops is not divisible by 3). Loop the Central part will knit on, and the loop side parts (they will form the sides of the heel) to gradually attach to the loops of the Central part.
We begin the descent of loops from the wrong side to finish it from the front. Provyazyvaem two-thirds of the loops wrong, then 2 loops together-the last loop from the Central part and the first loop from the third part – provyazyvaem them together wrong. After that, turn the knitting and knit on the front side of the heel in the first turn the loop is removed, not promazyvaya.
Knit the front, the last loop of the Central part and the first loop of the first part are finished together in wire (remove the first loop, the second face are finished, then removed the noose spread to knit). Again, turn the knitting, the first loop is removed, not promazyvaya, etc.
Continue knitting until all the side loops are closed. Now we are entering the loop from the side of the heel, from each of the second numbers dialed 1 loop + 1 loop optional, i.e., 2 rows recruit 3 loops. Go to circular knitting, take in the loop with the left spokes, newly recruited hinges with the lateral parts of the heel loop and the Central part of the heel. Are finished one row of the facial viscous. Then in each 2-m circular row for better fit heel are finished 3rd and 2nd loop from the end of the 1st spokes along the front loop and the 2nd and 3rd loop 4th spokes together with wire.
Repeat the subtraction until you reach the original number of loops (recruited to start knitting products). Next, knit the foot facial viscous in a circle to the bone of the thumb or to the end of the little finger. Then knit toe sock. We reduce loops as follows: in each 2nd row of the 3rd and 2nd loops from the end of the 1st and 3rd spokes knit together facial loops, and the 2nd and 3rd loops of the 2nd and 4th spokes knit together broach. When the spokes will be half hinges such subtraction performed in each circular row until there are 4 loops. They tighten the thread and fasten.
Using two spokes (the easiest way)
The five spokes you have already learned how to knit the simple model, so let's get to knitting on 2 needles (can use circular needles). Knit this model allows you to make patterns of any complexity, but many confused seams. But if you manage to finish nicely and properly connect the seams, the seam will be invisible visually and to the touch.
To start knitting count the number of loops based on the circumference of the legs.
For example, take 48 loops recruited them + 2 edges (50 loops) on 2 needles, knit straight leaf 5-6 cm rubber band, then the front stitch or the pattern of 7-8 cm Start knitting the heel: the number of loops (without edging) divide into 4 pieces, get 12 loops. The heel will be tied on the two middle parts. Knit facial 12+12+12 loops( three parts), turn the work and knit 12+12 loops (two middle parts). Again turn the work and knit 12 + 11 loops.
Again turn the work and knit 11+11 loops, etc. ie, in each row, we are finished by 1 less loop (do a shortened series), until we will remain in the 8 loops. Now start to increase the number of loops in each row promazyvaya removed before the loop. To avoid holes in knitting, do this: put on the left needle side loop, and provyazyvaem this worn loop and the next together front. I. e. the number of working loops will increase by 1.
Then turn the knitting, first remove the loop, then purl 8, raising on the left needle side of the loop and are finished together purl 2 stitches. And so on until all the loops (12+12) are in operation.
Our knitting has such kind of. Further basic knit pattern straight canvas on all 48+2 edge loops length until about the middle of the big toe.
Now start knitting toe. Again divide the loop into 4 parts— 12+12+12+12 Hm. We reduce loops as follows: in each 2nd row the 3rd and 2nd loops from the end of the first and third parts we tie together facial loops, and the 2nd and 3rd loops of the second and fourth parts we tie together a broach. When the spokes will be half hinges such subtraction is performed in each row until there are 6 loops.
They tighten the thread, the same thread sews the sock. The seam is obtained on the top of the sock.
