Poncho - not traditional clothes of Hispanics, but also a fashionable designer outfit. The relevance of this wonderful outfit in its stylish ethnic component and convenience, as well as practicality. These capes are very original, so they look great both with trousers, and with a skirt, boots or refined shoes. Plus, everyone who loves to knit, very attracted to knitting this outfit, because as the language of one Indian tribe "poncho" means "lazy".
Necessary tools for knitting a poncho with knitting needles
So, before we bind the poncho with knitting needles, we should get a centimeter, a thick yarn of several shades, a large button, a crochet, a darning needle, and scissors. And, of course, with spokes (two straight).
Knitting a poncho: technique and the process itself
Our knitting of the "Indian" cape, as a rule, we begin with a pattern. Previously, the poncho pattern included only one detail in the form of a large rectangle. Now there is a huge number of options to tie the knitting needles. For beginners, a perfect towel with a scent and a clasp is perfect. Here we need to find out the required width of the product, calculate the density of knitting, and dial the proper number of loops on straight spokes.
Also we can try to connect a rectangular cloak with the help of the actual large knitting today. Here we need a yarn of appropriate thickness. Exclusivity of such a poncho directly depends on the pattern and colors that we choose.
By the way, it is very important in the process of large knitting not to use intricate reliefs, as this will give the product roughness. It is necessary to stop the choice on garter stitch (in the purl and face rows only facial loops should be present). Yarn is best to take two or even more colors, and then in sequence to alternate strips of different shades.
Initially, we need to link the desired size of the canvas as a rectangle, and then we close the loops of the last row. After it is necessary to steam off our poncho and dry it, and then carefully place it on the corner of the table and fix the middle with a massive beautiful button.
In order to hide the accessories it is possible to tie the yarn with one of the main colors of our poncho with the help of a hook.
Knitting with poncho knitting needles: a detailed example
Initially, we should measure the circumference of our neck and calculate the facial surface. Begin to knit a poncho with five spokes. We type the required number of loops, which must necessarily be divided into four. Lines where loops are added, we will be placed at the points of transition from the spoke to the spoke.
We need to tie the rod six rows without adding loops. Immediately begin to bind the connection lines. On the first spoke we sew the loops with the front loops, and from the end the second loop with the backs and the last with the front loop.
The second wedge we start with the front, and after we sew one back and we knit until the last two loops are already facial. We use the last purl, alternating with the front one. All other wedges we knit in a similar pattern. The second row we need to knit, tying the purl loops over the back, and over the facial ones - facial.
Approximately from the seventh row we begin adding loops. This addition must be carried out at the junction of the wedges. All the loops of the wedge we are tying up to the penultimate front, and the penultimate knitting is the wrong one. Now we do the reverse crochet and loop the remaining loop through the front. At the junctions of all wedges, we add loops to this image. But the next row we need to tie strictly without adding, with the wrong loop we sew a cape. Through the series, do not forget to add loops. After we knotted twenty centimeters of the canvas, we should go to the circular knitting needles.
Now we must continue to knit our poncho in a circle, through each row making the addition of loops. Having knitted a poncho of the necessary length, we close the hinges.
So we tied the exclusive and fashionable thing under the name poncho, which will certainly decorate our wardrobe, giving an image of extravagance and style!
