Knitted by hand today at the height of fashion. Small openwork patterns made with knitting needles look very beautiful in them. Schemes, descriptions and step-by-step photographs of the process of their implementation will help beginner needlewomen create exclusive things for themselves and their loved ones with their own hands.

How is lace made?

The basic elements of knitting are knit and purl loops, as well as yarn overs. Every knitter is familiar with them. And if in the second row the yarn is knitted as an independent loop, a small hole is obtained. This is what all openwork patterns are based on.

It is only important to observe the total number of loops in the row. Otherwise, the canvas will expand, which will violate the plans of the master. Therefore, in a row where yarns are made, some loops are knitted two or even three together.

Here, too, there are rules. For example, the slope of the loops knitted together. To correctly complete the pattern, you need to pay attention in the description to whether a knitting needle is inserted into them on the right or left.

Beautifully placed holes and sloped knitstogether the loops create the pattern itself. Here are works made with knitting needles, small openwork patterns with samples, diagrams and their descriptions. There are also tutorials with step by step photos. But every needlewoman is able to create her own pattern if she understands the openwork knitting algorithm.

Mesh

This is the simplest small openwork knitting pattern. The scheme of the picture includes only 2 rows.

To read it, you need to familiarize yourself with the legend:

• edge - about.;
• nakid - n.;
• 2 together facial - x.;
• front - l.;
• purl - and.

The circuit itself will look like this:

o.; n.; X.; n.; X.; n.; X.; … o;

o.; and.; and.; and.; and.; and.; and.; … o.

Table describing the pattern:

Row	Knitting method
odd	hem is removed,yarn over, knit 2 together from left to right, repeat report fromtoto the end of the row, last knit purl
even	remove the hem, and purl all loops and crochets

The mesh looks simple, it is often used for knitting men's T-shirts or yokes for dresses.

Chess grid

This is also a very simple small openwork knitting pattern. The scheme differs from the previous one only in that in every third row the pattern shifts one loop to the left.

o.; n.; X.; n.; X.; … o.;

o.; and.; and.; and.; and.; … o;

o.; l.; n.; X.; n.;X.; n.; x.;

o.; and.; and.; and.; and.; and.; … o.

Row numbering	Knitting method
1	hem is removed,yarn over, knit 2 together from left to right, repeat report fromtoto the end of the row, last knit purl
2	remove the hem, and purl all loops and crochets
3	hem is removed, knit 1,yarn over, knit 2 together from left to right, repeat report fromtoto the end of the row, last knit purl
4	edge should be removed, all loops, including nakida, knit purl

As a result, the holes are staggered. Although, if we compare the samples connected by a simple mesh and a checkerboard, you can see that outwardly they differ little from each other.

Pigtail - small openwork knitting pattern: scheme and description

Knitted women's blouses are decorated with relief patterns in vertical stripes. This knitted small openwork pattern is suitable for them. The knitting pattern of the pigtail pattern consists of 4 rows.

Each row starts with a selvedge, which is removed without knitting. Finish it on the wrong side. For the sample, a number of loops is dialed, a multiple of 9 plus 4. You also need to add 2 edge loops to this number.

Start knitting with an elastic band, on the front side it consists of 4 purl and 5 facial. Enoughwork 2 rows with such an elastic band.

2	knit 4, purl 5 (crochets are knitted as independent loops) - report is repeated to the end of the row, knit 4
3	purl 4, knit 1, yarn over, knit 3 together, yarn over, knit 1 - repeat report. to end of row, purl 4
4	like 2.

Openwork pigtail without an auxiliary knitting needle: a master class in photos

Step by step in photos, the process of knitting a pattern, the diagram of which is presented in the previous paragraph, looks like this.

Elastic band with which knitting begins. It is not difficult to make it at all, even an inexperienced person can easily cope with it.craftswoman.

The first front row. It is important to observe the slope of the loops here. Otherwise, a beautiful pattern will not work.

Second purl row. Remember that yarns are knitted as independent loops!

Third front row. The next and all even numbers are a repeat of the previous one.

Drawing "Fan": master class with photo

The scheme and description of a small openwork pattern made with knitting needles will help to bring it to life.

To make a sample of this pattern, you need to cast on the number of loops, a multiple of 10 plus 5. The first row should be purl, it is not included in the pattern itself.

Next, we knit according to the pattern in which the hemlines are not indicated, and the repeating report is highlighted asterisks. In addition to the symbols already stated above, the following apply here:

• s. n. - double crochet;
• s. p. - removed loop without knitting;
• 5x. - 5 loops are knitted together with the front;
• l. p. - the yarn is knitted front behind the front wall;
• l. h. - the yarn is knitted behind the back wall.

Scheme of the "fan" pattern:

1 - l.; l.; l.; l.; l.; n.; l.; n.; l.; n.; l.; n.; l.; n.; l.; l.; l.; l.; l.; l.; l.;

Then repeats, starting from the 2nd row.

It is difficult to understand the features of a small openwork pattern with knitting needles according to the scheme. Step by step photos of the process and detailed explanations will be able to help the novice craftswoman.

In even rows, slip the yarn over from the needle. The loops themselves are slightly pulled up. Then they are removed with the right knitting needle without knitting. When all the yarns are dropped, the elongated 5 loops are transferred back to the left knitting needle. And then they make 2 nakida.

Elongated 5 loops are knitted together from left to right front. For beginners, it is not always easy, but with experience it becomes much easier.

Then 2 yarn over again. This is not at all difficult to do, but requires attention.

In odd numbers, a beginner needlewoman also faces difficulty. You need to knit 2 crochets in different ways. The first one is behind the front wall.

And the second - behind the back. The main thing is to understand the principle and not get confused.

Actually, the pattern is not as complicated as it might seem. The video below shows options for openwork patterns made with knitting needles.

After working on the sample, the craftswoman will understand the knitting algorithm, and things will go faster. But what a wonderful little thing can turn out! If only there was enough patience and desire.
