The finished knitted product looks neat only if a number of rules are followed correctly. Their list includes the assembly of canvases. The choice of the necessary connecting seam directly depends on the thickness of the yarn and the pattern of the product.
Horizontal knit stitch ("loop to loop")
Perfect for joining stocking stitch pieces. Without disturbing the structure of the material, it retains its elasticity. So that the loops do not open during work, the canvas lay freely, several rows are knitted along its edge with an additional thread, after which it is steamed. Additional rows are unraveled before stitching.
Performing a horizontal knitted stitch in knitting:
- from the inside out from the bottom up, insert the needle into the 1st loop of the bottom row;
- from the front to the wrong side, we direct the needle into the 1st loop of the top row (from top to bottom), and bring it out from the bottom up into the 2nd loop of the top row;
- insert the needle from top to bottom from the front to the wrong side into the 1st loop of the bottom row and output from the bottom up into the 2nd loop of the bottom row;
- again insert the tool from top to bottom into the 2nd loop of the toprow, and you need to output to the next, adjacent loop, from bottom to top.
Then we sew in the same way.
The loops should be the same size as in the main fabric, do not tighten the thread - and you will get an inconspicuous seam.
The horizontal knit stitch is good for gathering 1 x 1 ribbing. And it is done like this: first sew only the front loops on one side of the fabric, then turn it inside out and repeat the process.
The horizontal seam is also used to connect the open loops of the longitudinal with the edge loops of the transverse fabric (when sewing in sleeves). To do this:
- the sleeve is pinned with pins to the product, aligning the intended middle of the part with the shoulder seam;
- start assembly from the right edge on the front side;
- The needle is inserted into the open loops of the sleeve and the arcs of the loops of the main fabric following the edge ones are captured.
Vertical knit stitch in knitting
It is often called "mattress". It is used, as a rule, to connect parts along the edges of a knitted fabric, performed on the front side. Before assembly, the product does not need to be chipped or basted.
Each edge loop combines two knitted rows, two transverse threads fit to it. It is necessary to sew sequentially, connecting one row to another, without missing a single thread. The needle works from right to left. When stitching a fabric knitted with front loops, a needleinjected from the bottom up under the first of these two transverse threads at the part on the right, then under the first of the two threads at the loop of the left part. Then the needle is inserted under the second thread of the part loop on the right and also under the second thread at the edge loop of the part on the left.
In the case when the yarn is thick, or different loops fit the seam on both sides, the needle must be inserted under the broach between the edge loop and the loop adjacent to it alternately, then on the right, then on the left details. This seam is a little flat and barely noticeable.
Knit stitch in knitting. Tricks and secrets
When stitching products, it is recommended to use the yarn with which the fabric is connected. In the event that the threads were used fancy or with a long pile, it is necessary to choose the most appropriate color option. It is better to start the seam with the remaining end of the thread, even if it is a little short: this will ensure a smooth and neat edge of the product. In order not to attach the thread in parts (additional unnecessary knots will spoil the whole picture), its length should be 3.5 times greater than the width of the fabric on the knitting needle.
Diligence and practice will help you make the perfect invisible knit stitch in knitting.
