There are a lot of crochet techniques and techniques, thanks to which openwork patterns of amazing beauty and grace are created. They look great both in clothes and in household items. One of the most unusual, but at the same time amazing and magical, is a pattern called the Solomon's Knot. Some craftswomen call it differently - "Solomon loops".

What does this pattern look like?

Crochet Solomon Knot is a light, airy and sophisticated weaving, for which any yarn is suitable without exception. The pattern will look especially unusual on a sectional thread, but you can take any other. This is a knitting technique with drawn loops that requires very little time to complete. The loops are long, up to twenty centimeters, so that knitting ends quickly. Most often, shawls and stoles are knitted from it.

How to tie: startwork

So, the “Solomon Knot” is crocheted quite simply and quickly, you just need to figure out the pattern. Work begins with a standard technique: you need to dial the very first, main chain of the usual air loops. Air loops are necessary, because only with the help of them you can attach to something: to a fabric or another pattern, and the openwork itself will be much smoother and more beautiful. Now the loop remaining on the hook is pulled out (how much depends on the desire of the craftswoman, it is this length that determines the length of the openwork cells), a yarn is made. As a result, two whole threads were obtained from the elongated loop.

The next step is to pull the thread on the hook through the already made elongated loop. As a result, there are already three threads available for further work. Under the third (that is, made last) thread, a hook is inserted, then a standard yarn is made, and the thread remaining on the hook is passed through the working thread. Two loops have already formed on the instrument, which are knitted together. This is the main cycle from which the work on the Solomon's Knot pattern is built. Crochet should be handled carefully, but not especially on ceremony.

Continuation of knitting

To continue knitting, you should stretch the thread on the hook so that you get three working threads again. The hook is inserted under the third thread, a yarn is made, the thread is pulled from the hook, as a result, there are already two loops on it, which are knitted together. All here and contacteda chain with knots from two elongated loops. The “Solomon knot” (crocheted), the scheme of which is very simple, then knits like this: in the fifth loop of the air chain, you need to knit one single crochet, pull out the resulting loop. Now two cells with knots are again knitted up to the very end of the row.

On the reverse side

Having finished knitting on one side, you need to turn the work around and continue on the other. "Solomon's knot" crochet here is made of three loops. In the knots between the loops of the previous row, simple single crochets are knitted. Now you need to perform again the already familiar two elongated loops with graceful knots, but between the elongated loops of the previous row, that is, in the very knot, a single crochet is knitted. the result is an openwork, light mesh.

How to use the pattern

Many people love crochet. The Solomon Knot gives you the opportunity to decorate your clothes with delicate openwork lace or knit something separate and completely new. Knot shawls look airy, weightless, as if woven by forest elves. T-shirts, blouses and sleeveless jackets look good. It’s only desirable to sew in a lining or pry on a T-shirt, because the pattern is very transparent …
