How to knit products from yarn weed. Grass cardigan - a trendy model for young and daring

"Grass" - very interesting in appearance, unusual yarn with a pile of 0.5 to several centimeters. It is made from polyester or polyamide, sometimes with the addition of Lurex or other metallics. A variety of colors, an unusually delicate, silky structure - all this allows the use of yarn not only for the production of children's and adult clothing, but also for the manufacture of toys, souvenirs, blankets and much more. With skillful use, products and their parts made from Travka will resemble spring grass, shaggy frost, and precious fur.

Yarn "Grass" is suitable for hand knitting and crocheting, you can also knit it on a machine. And, it would seem, knitting should not create any problems.

Firstly, products from "Grass" do not require the choice of complex patterns, either embossed or openwork - the pattern will still be hidden by the pile. Knit from this - with the usual surface, front or wrong side; crochet - double crochet. Secondly, for knitting, you should take a large hook or knitting needles, No. 4 - 6, which means that the work will go pretty quickly. There is no need to be afraid of excessive looseness of the canvas - a thick pile will hide all this.

But those who have already knitted with "Grass" know that the pile, decorating the product, greatly complicates the work. In order not to spoil the yarn and not waste time, you should remember a few simple rules.

The basic rule is that the thread pile during knitting should be located with the tips of the threads from left to right. This is one of the main difficulties - the skeins that go on sale are formed just the opposite, and knitting is easier at first glance. This is true, but the quality of the canvas will suffer. It is necessary to rewind the purchased skein, but it is easier to pull the tip of the thread from the middle of the skein and start knitting from it - in this case, the direction will be correct.

With a very thick and long pile, you literally have to knit “by touch”, you need to be very careful not to miss the loop. At first it is difficult, but in the process of work, skill will appear, and possibly some kind of your own way to release the pile, making the canvas more fluffy.

Those who want to get a denser product will have to add either a dense cotton thread like Iris to the Grass thread, or, if a warmer product is needed, a thin woolen thread. Products only from Travka, especially those knitted with thick knitting needles, turn out to be too airy and plastic, do not keep their shape and size very well.

But do not forget that you can knit not only and not so much independent products from Travka yarn. It is very good for finishing clothes, both knitted and sewn from any material. Elements of sweaters, jackets, suits, shawls, knitted with "Grass" will transform the usual look of clothing.

The name "Grass" is worn by long-haired threads used for knitting. From grass, you can knit with the help of both knitting needles and a hook. In order for the knitting process to be more successful, and the result to please, use thicker knitting needles and hooks.

Such threads are very popular among beginner needlewomen. This is explained not only by the beauty and originality of the products obtained, but also by the fact that the knitted not very even loops will not be noticeable when knitting from such yarn. Travka yarn can be found in every craft store.

Grass Knitting

Before creating things knitted from grass, you need to choose the right model. Due to its specificity, this yarn is not suitable for the manufacture of all things. Weed is good for knitting clothes for children. In such clothes, children are very cute and look like cubs. Of course, she has her drawbacks. For example, in clothes that are made of grass, you can not keep warm in the cold. But from this yarn you can safely knit suits for your children for matinees and other holidays.

Women will look spectacular in shawls and scarves, as well as capes and boleros made of grass. It is worth noting that weed capes and boleros will not work as casual wear. They should only be worn in addition to evening and holiday attire.

In addition, you can combine weed with other types of yarn and use it as a trim, as well as knit toys, pillows and other interesting little things.

Knitting grass bolero

The proposed bolero is designed for 40/42/44 sizes. In order to knit such a bolero, you will need to purchase soft grass (150 g), smooth yarn of the same color (100-150 g), knitting needles 5, 6, and buttons.

Bolero must be knitted alternately with grass and smooth yarn, approximately 2 rows each.
To tie the bottom edge, cast on 66/70/74 loops with weed. Knit in stockinette stitch. Alternate stripes with stripes of smooth yarn.
When you get to the 5th row from the beginning of knitting, start making increments. Add 1 stitch on each side. Then add 1 st on each side as follows: 1x on the next 2nd row, *2x on each row, 1x on the 2nd row, then repeat from * 16/17/18 more times. In your work, you should get 166/176/186 loops in total. Then we start knitting straight 18/19/20 cm.
When the product reaches 46 / 48.5 / 51 cm from the beginning of knitting, close all loops with weed.
To assemble a grass bolero with knitting needles, it is necessary to tie its edges with a strap belt. To do this, you need to collect loops along the edge of the resulting canvas. Choose the direction from edge A to edge C. On edge A, cast on 30/31/33 loops with grass, on the beveled edge (armhole) - 14/18/22 loops, on edge B - 59/61/65 loops, on the second edge of the armhole - 14/18/22 loops, along the edge of C - 30/31/33 loops.
You need to start knitting with an elastic band (1 front loop, 1 wrong loop), using grass. Then you need to perform alternation, as when knitting a fabric. On the right edge of the belt you need to make holes for buttons. To make them, you need to make a crochet and knit 2 loops together. The first hole should be located at a height of 2 cm, and the second at a height of 5 cm from the edge of the belt.
The belt-bar should be knitted until its width reaches 7 cm, after which it is necessary to close all the loops and sew on the buttons.

Dial 56 loops according to the scheme: 1 raglan loop, 12 loops of the sleeve, 1 raglan loop, 28 loops of the back raglan loop, 12 loops of the sleeve, 1 raglan loop. In each of the front rows, add 1 loop to the right and left of each raglan loop with the help of a crochet. Add to the extreme raglan loops only on the inside of the raglan loops.
Continue knitting in this way until the length of the raglan lines becomes 26 cm. As soon as the length reaches this indicator, close all the loops. The raglan lines of the back at the lower points must be connected to the raglan lines of the front.
Cast on the edge of the loop on circular needles and knit the strapping with the front stitch. In the third and fifth circular rows, add 6-7 loops at the same distance from each other. The harness must be knitted 15 cm, after which the loops are freely closed.

I want to write about the fact that I really like knitting from grass. But there are still needlewomen who are also fond of such knitting. Grass - threads with a long pile, which are sold in every needlework shop. We all know that they are made of artificial fibers, but there are many uses for them.
From grass, you can knit and knit and crochet. To make the pile lay beautifully, thick knitting needles and hooks are used. The fabric knits quickly, and, which is important for not very experienced needlewomen, even if the loops are not very even, this will not be noticeable in a knitted weed fabric. If you want to get an elastic fabric - knit "grass" with knitting needles, if you want the product to keep its shape well - use a crochet hook for knitting.
Weed makes cute things for children, children in them look like little "cubs". Of course, these things do not particularly warm in cold weather, but they look very impressive and can be worn for various holidays and matinees. Women's shawls and scarves, capes and boleros look spectacular. The latter, of course, should be knitted only to complement evening dresses; they will not work as casual or business wear. But how beautiful you look:

And I also have a pretty children's fur coat in the "Knitting" section.
Grass can also be combined with other yarns when knitting. By adding several rows of grass when knitting clothes, you can get a cozy and at the same time noble cardigan or jacket for everyday wear.

You can also tie long strips of grass and sew them along the inner edge of the armholes, necks and shelves. Get a vest with a "fur edge".

Fluffy pillowcases for sofa cushions look very cozy. You can knit tie covers for pouffes, a children's blanket or rug.

Read, watch and be inspired!
