If you learn the basics, in the future you will not be afraid of beautiful products with a jacquard pattern, unusual in the patchwork style, new models with braids, very cool with ornaments, etc.

Knitting socks on 5 needles

This technique involves knitting a product without a single seam. The socks are knitted in a spiral, as a result of which they lie perfectly on the leg.

Socks on five knitting needles are knitted on top of the sock to the toe in a circular knit, loops are picked up on four knitting needles, the fifth is working.

The number of loops is calculated based on the circumference of the leg. We take two measurements of the leg:

1st - lifting circle; centimeter measure the foot from the heel to the rise on an inclined plane.

2nd - leg circumference; measured at the foot, at the thinnest point of the leg, above the bone.

Then we determine the average circumference: add the instep and leg circumferences and divide the resulting figure by 2. For example, the instep circumference is 31 cm, the leg circumference is 21 cm; we get 31 + 21 \u003d 52, 52_2 \u003d 26 cm. For this number of centimeters, we calculate the set of loops. It is advisable to round the resulting number of loops to a number divisible by 4, so that it is convenient to knit on 4 knitting needles.

We collect the required number of loops, distribute them on 4 knitting needles and knit an elastic band in a circular knit. Usually an elastic band is 5-6 cm, but you can knit less - if desired. Then we knit 7-8 cm with front viscous to the heel. We knit the heel on two knitting needles from half of the loops, and leave the other half on unused knitting needles. On two knitting needles we knit a fabric with a front knitting of 5.5 - 6 cm, this is the height of the heel. Depending on the instep of the leg, it may be less, but starting from the 35th leg size, this is a constant value.

Then, to give the heel a shape, we make the descent of the heel: we divide all the loops into three parts. If there are extra loops, then we attach them to the central part (if the number of loops is not divisible by 3). We will knit the loops of the central part further, and the loops of the side parts (they will form the sides of the heel) are gradually attached to the loops of the central part.

We start the descent of the loops from the wrong side to finish it from the front. We knit two-thirds of the loops from the wrong side, then 2 loops together - the last loop from the central part and the first loop from the third part - we knit them together from the wrong side. After that, we turn the knitting and knit on the front side of the heel, while at the turn we remove the first loop without knitting.

We knit the front ones, knit the last loop of the central part and the first loop of the first part together with a broach (remove the first loop, knit the second one with the front one, then transfer the removed loop to the knitted one). We turn the knitting again, remove the first loop without knitting, etc.

Continue knitting until all side loops are closed. Now we pick up loops from the side of the heel, from each second row we pick up 1 loop + 1 loop additionally, i.e. from 2 rows we collect 3 loops. We turn to circular knitting, we take into work the loops from the left knitting needles, the newly typed loops from the side parts of the heel and the loops of the central part of the heel. Knit one row in knit stitch. Then, in each 2nd circular row, for a better fit of the heel, we knit the 3rd and 2nd loop from the end of the 1st knitting needle together with the front loop and the 2nd and 3rd loop of the 4th knitting needle together with a broach.

We repeat the decrease until the initial number of loops (cast on to start knitting the product) is reached. Next, we knit the foot with facial viscous in a circle to the bone of the thumb or to the end of the little finger. Then we knit the toe of the sock. We decrease the loops as follows: in each 2nd row, we knit the 3rd and 2nd loops from the end of the 1st and 3rd knitting needles together with facial loops, and the 2nd and 3rd loops of the 2nd and 4th we knit the knitting needles together with a broach. When half of the loops remain on the knitting needles, we perform such decreases in each circular row until 4 loops remain. We tighten them with a thread and fix them.

Using two knitting needles (the easiest way)

On five knitting needles, you have already learned how to knit the simplest model, so we move on to knitting on 2 knitting needles (you can use circular knitting needles). The knitting of such a model allows you to make patterns of any complexity, but many are confused by the seam. But if you manage to finish beautifully and connect the seams correctly, the seam will be invisible visually and to the touch.

To start knitting, we calculate the number of loops based on the circumference of the leg.

For example, we take 48 loops, we collect them + 2 edge loops (a total of 50 loops) on 2 knitting needles, we knit a straight fabric 5-6 cm with an elastic band, then with the front stitch or a selected pattern of 7-8 cm. We start knitting the heel: the number of loops (without edge loops) divide into 4 parts, it turns out 12 loops. We will knit the heel on two middle parts. We knit 12 + 12 + 12 loops (three parts), turn the work and knit 12 + 12 loops (two middle parts). Again we turn the work and knit 12 + 11 loops.

Again we turn the work and knit 11 + 11 loops, etc. That is, in each row we knit 1 loop less (we make shortened rows) until we have 8 loops left in the work. Now we will begin to increase the number of working loops, knitting the previously removed loop in each row. So that there are no holes in knitting, we do this: we put a side loop on the left knitting needle, and we knit this worn loop and the next one together with the front one. Those. the number of working loops will increase by 1.

Then we turn the knitting, remove the first loop, then purl 8, raise the side loop on the left knitting needle and knit 2 loops together with the wrong one. And so on, until all loops (12 + 12) are in work.

Now start knitting a toe. Again we divide the loops into 4 parts - 12 + 12 + 12 + 12. We decrease the loops as follows: in each 2nd row, we knit the 3rd and 2nd loops from the end of the first and third parts together with facial loops, and we knit the 2nd and 3rd loops of the second and fourth parts together with a broach. When half of the loops remain on the knitting needles, we perform such decreases in each row until 6 loops remain.

We tighten them with a thread, we sew the sock with the same thread. The seam is obtained along the top of the sock.

Do you love warmth the way we love it? Then it's time to learn how to knit socks and put this knowledge into practice as soon as possible! Do you have at least 3 reasons to learn how to knit socks with your own hands.

Things created by hand are much more beautiful, warmer, more pleasant to wear.
Hand-knitted socks will cost you much less than the finished product, because you only have to spend money on yarn.
Knitting soothes and brings peace.

Have we convinced you that hand-knitted socks are cool? Then let's get down to business.

Oddly enough, the easiest way to knit socks is to use 5 knitting needles. However, do not be afraid of so many tools: on 4 knitting needles we will cast on loops, and the fifth knitting needle will be working. Next, we will tell you how to knit socks for beginners on 5 knitting needles step by step and demonstrate simple master class.

The first thing we need to do is to measure the leg in order to dial the required number of loops. We will take measurements in two planes:

The average leg circumference is determined as follows: we find the sum of the above two measurements (lift circumference and leg circumference) and divide the resulting number by 2. For example, the first measure will be 31 cm, and the second - 21. Then we sum these two numbers and divide the sum by 2. The result is 26 cm. We recommend rounding the resulting number of centimeters by a multiple of 4. After all, it is for this length that we will dial the required number of loops and distribute them over 4 knitting needles.

We collect loops in the amount in which we have determined.
We evenly divide the loops between 4 knitting needles and knit an elastic band. This will be the top of the sock, and we will move to the toe of our product, using circular knitting. This knitting method is suitable for both adults and children's socks. The socks are tight and neat, they sit well on the leg.
The standard length of the upper gum of the sock is on average 5-6 cm.
After the elastic, it is necessary to knit 7-8 cm with facial loops, up to the heel. The knitting of the heel will take place with the help of two loops, that is, when using half of the loops from the number that we scored.
With the help of two knitting needles reserved for knitting the heel, we knit with front loops of 5.5-6 cm, which will be the height of the heel. This figure is unchanged for those who have a foot size of 35 or more.
The next step is to give our heel the necessary shape. To do this, we make a heel descent, dividing the loops into 3 equal parts. We send the extra loops to the central part, and the loops located on the sides are gradually knitted together with the central loops. Thus, we we form the sides of the heel. You can see more detailed instructions for knitting heels in the article below.
We lower the loops from the wrong side and finish the descent from the front. 2/3 loops knit with purl loops.
We knit 2 loops together: among them there will be the last loop of the central part and the first loop of our third part. It is these loops that we knit together on the wrong side.
We turn the work and knit the front side of the heel, removing the first loop. We will not knit it. Subsequent knitting is carried out with facial loops, and in the very final we knit together the last loop of the central part and the first loop of the first part. This method is called broach, when the first loop is removed, the second is knitted with the front one, and the removed loop is transferred to the knitted one.
We turn the work again and remove the first loop without knitting.
We continue to knit according to the previous scenario, with facial loops. We knit until all side loops are closed.
We collect the loops from the side of the heel on the knitting needle so that from each second row we pick up one loop and one additionally, that is, 3 loops from two rows.
We return to circular knitting, using the loops from those knitting needles that we have not yet been involved in. And also we take into work the loops from the sidewalls of the heel and the loops of the central area of the heel. One row is knitted.
In order for the sock to fit better to the heel, we knit every second circular row like this: the third and second loop from the end are knitted together from the end of the first knitting needle with a facial loop, as well as the second and third loops of the fourth knitting needle are knitted together with a broach.
We decrease the loops until we get the number of initially cast on loops.
We turn to knitting the foot (facial viscous in a circle). We knit to the end of the little finger or to the bone of the thumb.
Knitting a sock toe. Reducing loops according to the following scheme: in every second row, we knit the third and second loops from the edge of the odd knitting needles with facial loops (together). Similarly, we knit the second and third loops of even knitting needles with a broach.
After the number of loops reaches half, decrease begins in each circular row until there are only 4 loops on the needles.
We tighten the loops with a thread and fasten.

like this pretty quick and easy way to knit socks we showed you. For clarity, the creators of the master class used multi-colored yarn, so it turned out to be a rather cheerful option. You can use threads of any color or try to make patterned socks. Next, we will show you beautiful patterns for knitting socks.

We already told you a little about knitting heels in the previous section. I would like to dwell in more detail on how to knit a heel at a toe with knitting needles: you will find a detailed description in the photo with professional explanations and knitting patterns.

Agree, this hosiery variety is impressive! And you can create all this yourself, the main thing is to learn how to correctly count the loops, carefully knit the heel and toe, choose a good, well-fitting model. After you master the simplest basics of knitting socks, you will be able to create real masterpieces for yourself, your child, and for the whole family.

What is the best yarn to knit socks with?

Many novice craftswomen, when starting to knit, often ask themselves the question, what yarn is better to knit socks from? After all, I want this piece of clothing to be worn for a long time, and it was comfortable and warm in it.

wool socks. Very warm, but wear out quickly on the heel.
Wool blend socks. Practical and soft.
Socks from yarn by adding down, angora, synthetic fibers. Such mixtures greatly strengthen the thread and make the product wear-resistant, warm and durable.
Socks from yarn "Derevenka" with the addition of synthetic threads on the heel and toe.

How to knit socks for beginners: step by step video with explanations

We have already told you a lot about socks, it remains to show how to knit socks for beginners: a step-by-step video will show everything in great detail. We wish you success!

How pleasant it is to wear a thing made by one's own hands, but it is doubly pleasant to create for others. I love knitting very much. When I have a free minute, I pick up knitting needles. I learned to knit from childhood. Socks are the first product that I knitted. I will share my knowledge with you.

We knit socks on 5 knitting needles, a master class for beginners

The sock consists of five parts:

cuff,
top part,
heel,
main part,
toe.

For knitting socks, we need knitting needles in the amount of 5 pieces with a diameter of 2 - 2.5 mm. We take soft threads. We will need about two balls of 100 g each. If desired, you can add a thread of a different color.

Having mastered the technique of knitting socks on 5 knitting needles, you can try to knit them with 2 knitting needles, see the master class.

We cast on the knitting needles the number of loops in multiples of four, I cast on 64 loops (a multiple of four), first measured the circumference of the foot with a centimeter.

We divide the dialed loops into four knitting needles.

We connect the last loop of the fourth knitting needle and the first loop of the first knitting needle (using a hook or knitting needle), skipping the remaining thread on the knitting needle.

We tie a knot.

Now we take the fifth knitting needle in our hands and knit the cuff of the sock in a circle.

I knitted an elastic band: two facial, two purl loops.

I like high elastic bands in my socks, so my cuff height is 9 cm or 30 rows. For beauty, I knitted pink stripes four rows wide.

After the cuff, we knit the upper part of the sock with the front loops, grabbing the upper loop with a knitting needle.

Having knitted 4 cm or 15 rows, we proceed to knitting the heel. Here you can add to the main thread - a simple thread of the same color. This is done so that the heel does not rub quickly and is stronger.

We proceed directly to knitting the heel. The width of the heel is equal to the number of loops on two knitting needles. In my case, 32 loops. We connect the first and fourth knitting needles. We knit facial and purl loops for 16 rows. This is the heel height.

We remove the first loop at the beginning of the row, and we knit the last one - with a purl loop. This is necessary to form a beautiful edge.

Now we will knit the lower part of the heel. We divide the number of loops by three. Moreover, on the sides of the loops should be the same, and in the middle - as much as you like. We distribute the loops on three knitting needles. On the side needles I have 11 loops, and in the middle - 10 pieces. We knit with facial loops: the first 11 and the middle 9 loops. We knit the tenth with the front loop, and then the first loop of the third knitting needle. Now we lower the tenth loop (i.e. remove the loop from the knitting needle). We'll have a chain.

The heel will be rounded. On the side knitting needles, the loops will decrease, because. we knit only the middle ones - ten loops. We unfold the needles. We remove the first loop. We knit a row with purl loops. We knit the last loop of the second knitting needle and the first loop of the first knitting needle together with the wrong loop. Turn the needles over and knit the front row. We remove the first loop. At the end we lower the loop, as we already did.

So we knit until the loops on the side knitting needles end.

We turn the sock, with an elastic band towards us and we knit a row with facial loops. Now we unfold the other side and collect loops from the formed sides of the toe. I had 11 loops on the side knitting needles, which means the same number of loops, I should dial now. We knit the typed loops not just with facial loops. We knit them with crossed loops (we take the loop not by the lower part, but by the upper one) so that holes do not form.

Now we knit the main part of the sock, periodically reducing the loops, if necessary. This can be found by measuring the sock. We make decreases in a row, one loop, alternately on each knitting needle.

We knit the main part of the sock to the middle of the thumb.

Let's move on to knitting the toe. I have 44 loops left. We will do the decrease of loops, starting from the second knitting needle. We knit the first eleven loops on the first knitting needle without changes. On the second needle, having knitted eight loops, the next two loops are knitted together for the back walls. The last loop of the knitting needle - we knit with the front loop and the first of the third knitting needle too. We knit the next two loops of the third knitting needle with the front loop behind the front walls. We knit facial loops to the end of the knitting needle. We knit the fourth knitting needle in the same way, we knit the ninth and tenth loops together with the front for the back walls and one front loop. In the future, the loops will decrease and you can knit the toe on only two knitting needles. Thus, the chain is formed on the sides of the sock. If we fold the sock in half, then this is clearly visible.

We continue to knit in this pattern until only eight loops remain on two knitting needles.

With the help of a hook, we thread the thread through the remaining loops.

Tie a knot and hide it inside the sock.

Our sock is ready. It remains to tie the same on the second leg.

Finished products can be slightly steamed with an iron, the threads and seams will straighten out, and the thing will look prettier.

The ability to knit a heel is an important condition for knitting socks. You can do this in different ways. Each of them has its own advantages. How to knit a sock heel on knitting needles, we will consider in this article.

In order not to make a mistake with the calculation of the required number of loops when knitting, we recommend using the table.

Straight heel toe

This is the most traditional knitting method. Having knitted the desired length of the cuff and pagolenka, set aside half of the loops (2nd and 3rd knitting needles). We work with the 1st and 4th knitting needles, transferring the loops to one of them for convenience. We must link the faces. satin stitch the desired number of rows along the height of the heel of the toe - see the table. Then we divide all p. into three parts. Knit the loops of the central section evenly, while in faces. in rows, knit the last loop together with the first loop of the third section with a broach: 1p. remove faces - oh, 1 person., thread it through the removed one. Rotate the canvas. The 1st p. is removed from the wrong side.

In out. R. the last p. is knitted from the first p. of the extreme section of the wrong side. The canvas turns.

The first p. is removed as a front.

We continue with the knitting needles according to this algorithm until the loops of the extreme sections run out.

We collect loops along the height of the heel - see table. We distribute them evenly on sp. We include in the work the previously postponed items on the 2nd and 3rd sp.

In every even r. we make reductions: on the 1st sp. knit the third and penultimate p. in 1l., on the 4th sp. Knit the 2nd and 3rd p. in 1p. broach. We repeat the reductions until reaching the 1st and 4th sp. the initial (before knitting the heel) number of loops. Next, knit the foot of the sock.

Video master class

Stepped heel toe

The stepped heel is knitted correctly in two steps.

Set aside half of the item (2nd and 3rd joint). We work with loops of the 1st and 4th joint, for convenience transferred to one joint.

We knit the two extreme stitches on each side of the stitch with garter stitch knitting needles - it’s more convenient to count the rows. And besides this, a more regular shape of the edge is obtained. We knit the number of p. of the first stage - see the table.

Following. R. put off the extreme points - see table. We turn the sock. Following. R. set aside the same number of sts. On the remaining sts we knit the 2nd step of the persons. ch. The number of rows - see table. Extreme 2p. knit a board. pattern.

The first p. next. R. filming as faces. At the end of the river on the left edge of the 2nd step from chrome. p. knit p. - see their number in table. The last connected and the first postponed 1st art. knit with a broach in 1p. Turn the sock. Following. R. 1p. remove as out. Loops knit purl. On the right edge of the 2nd st. with knitting needles we raise the same number of sts. We knit the first postponed and the last knitted in 1 out.

Rotate the canvas. Continue with this method until all steps of the 1st step are completed. Knit the first half of the heel.

We distribute the item on the 4th sp. Loops of the 2nd half of the heel, knit the 1st joint, along the left edge of the 1st st. from chrome. p. raise with knitting needles p. - see the number of p. for the lifting wedge. We include in the work the deferred paragraphs of the 2nd and 3rd sp. 4th sp. on the right edge of the 1st st. raise the number of sts from the hem, as on the left cr. and knit the sts of the first half of the heel of the sock.

We knit the wedge of lifting the foot in a circle. In every even r. on the 1st sp. 3rd and 2nd p. from the end to tie in 1l .; on the 4th sp. similar pet. tie in 1p. broach. We repeat the reductions until on the 1st and 4th sp. there will be no number of sts equal to the number of sts on the 2nd and 3rd sp. Next - we will knit the foot.

Heel - boomerang

For this type of heel, knitting in short rows is used. The heel is shorter than the traditional one.

We work with half the stitch, temporarily postponing the stitch on the 2nd and 3rd knitting needles.

First part

2p .: double p .: thread in front of the canvas, on the right we enter sp. in the 1st p., remove it and pull the thread tightly back (to avoid holes). O. the loop scrolls to sp. and becomes double. We place the thread before work, the rest of the stitches need to be purl. We turn the sock.

We continue to work with short rows. For the 3rd p. first - double p., then - facial, finish the row with double p. We turn the work. Pay attention and do it right: double. no need to knit a loop! Next, we start again with doubles. p., continue out. p. and finish p. double p. Turn.

We repeat the last two p. Between doubles. n. only the n. of the middle section should remain. We take all the stitches into work and knit around 2p. persons. n. In the first of them, we knit each double st as 1p. After that, we set aside the loops of the top of the foot.

Second part

1p .: loops of the right and middle hours - facial, turn;

2 row: double p., out., turn;

3rd row: double p., persons-mi to double. n. Tie her 1l. 1st p. of the left third - front; turn;

4 rows: double p., out. up to double n. Knit it 1 out., 1st p. of the right third - purl; turn.

We repeat the 3rd and 4th p. until the full engagement of all heel points. We turn to circular knitting of all stitches.

double heel

This is a reinforced version of the heel of increased wear resistance.

As in all previous methods, we use half of the stitch to form the heel: we work with the 2nd and 3rd sp. We knit with direct / reverse knitting out. or persons. ch. desired height. At the same time, we knit a stitch in the first river. through one, skipping the thread in front of the work on the missed sts for out. iron and behind work for faces. ch. In the second r. - we knit all the loops according to the selected pattern. Then we divide all the items into three parts. Excess points are added to the central section.

We start from the wrong side: we knit again through one p. With pulling the thread. We knit the last stitch of the center from 1 out. from the first p. of the last part to 1 person. Turn. In faces. row: knit the central part - as described above. Last knit the center loop in 1 out. from the first p. of the extreme section. Please note: on the wrong side we knit two loops into one - front stitch, on the face - wrong side. This is done for a beautiful design of the subtractive joint. We continue until the sts of the side parts are over.

Further knitting - as in the previous descriptions. We get a compacted heel, with a double sole.

french heel

Here the beginning is as in the previous versions. The difference is directly in the method of designing the heel.
If the number of loops of the sole is -20, then for the heel we divide them 7p. + 6p. + 7p.

Knit 7r. up. On the side, raise 7p.

Heel “Kerchief”: video master class

To knit a straight classic heel, you will need 5 stocking needles, four of which form a square, and the fifth is a working one, on which loops are set. Having connected the leg with the cuff of the required length, proceed to the most difficult stage. Having mastered the skills of knitting in a straight line, it will be easier for you to learn how to work according to other patterns.

To knit the wall of the heel, using knitting needles No. 1 and No. 4, you need to knit the fabric - the required number of rows of satin stitch with facial loops. They should be two less than the typed loops (the sum on two knitting needles is 28, the rows should be 26).
In order to properly tie the lower part, you need to count the number of loops, divide by a multiple of three. If the number is divisible, then the middle part will be greater than (11+12+11).
The middle part is knitted with a satin stitch: the front side - the front side, the wrong side - the wrong side. The side loops should decrease with each row, as the extreme loops are knitted together.
The execution of the lower part is as follows: 1st - it is knitted with the front, in the middle part the last loop is knitted together with the crossed front, the work is unfolded; The 2nd purl begins with the fact that the extreme loop is removed as a purl, the middle is knitted purl, the extreme with the next one is also purl, turn over; 3rd - knit according to the scheme, like the 1st. Further, the scheme is repeated until only the middle part remains after assembly.

Method of knitting socks on knitting needles with a heel "Boomerang"

Having knitted a shin in a circle on four knitting needles, you can proceed to the heel of the Boomerang type. It is slightly shorter than the traditional one. For the heel, you will need another additional knitting needle. Double loops are not knitted.

According to the "Boomerang" scheme, the heel is knitted only with facial ones. If the lower leg is knitted with an elastic band, then before starting the rounding, you need to go to the smooth surface, making decreases along the entire row by 2 loops.
Divide the total number of loops into three equal parts, or add 1-2 extra ones to the central part, which turned out to be in the remainder after division.
1st is knitted with all knits.
2nd - turning the knitting over, perform a double loop once. It is important that both the loop and the thread are tightly tightened, then large holes will not form. To do this, insert the needle into the loop and grab the thread in front of it. Slip together, while pulling the thread back tightly. Knit purl. After completing the row, you need to turn the work.
3rd - stretch a double loop. Then everything is facial. Double loop. Flip.
4th - repeat as well as the 2nd. Further according to the scheme, until the loops remain only on the middle part.

The method of knitting a stepped heel at the toe

The stepped heel is knitted in the same way as in the previous cases, using the first and fourth knitting needles, temporarily leaving the second and third aside.

For the back wall of the loops from the first and fourth knitting needles, throw them on one and knit with the front surface.
With reinforced knitting, we begin to create a stepped heel in several stages.
1st - facial. Remove one loop as a purl, pull the thread back, knit the front loop. Flip.
2nd - purl. Flip.
3rd - alternation of one front loop, remove one from the wrong side.
4th - purl. Then repeat from the first to the fourth row.
The second step is knitted as follows: the last cast-on edge loop and the first set aside are knitted together with a facial broach. Turning the knitting needles with a thread, remove the first loop as a purl, then knit purl. Continue in this pattern until all the loops of the first and second steps are connected at the seam.

Knit heel double knit

You can increase the wear resistance of knitted socks not only by adding an additional thread, but by putting into practice a special method of knitting a double heel, increasing its thickness.

As in all cases, knit the back wall in reverse and straight rows. Having created the desired height, stop on the front row, begin to form a cup.
Divide all the loops into three parts equally or more on the central one.
On the wrong side: the left loop, the middle, the last from the center are knitted with the wrong side together with the first loop on the right side. Flip.
Front row: the middle, edge and last loops are knitted together with the side, located nearby. After each row, the work must be turned over.
Having knitted all the side loops, you will close the formed cup. Next, you can start knitting the instep wedge and foot.
