Knitting braids patterns and description of elastic band. Knitted braids - patterns with descriptions. Unusual elastic band with oblique loops
Almost every job involves the use of a so-called “rubber band.” It is convenient for processing the edges of sweaters, sleeves, dresses, making voluminous and warm collars, hats and scarves. Surely, you are already familiar with the simple options 1 x 1 and 2 x 2, so today we will master an unusual knitting pattern with elastic bands and a description of which is given below. So, how to knit elastic bands with beautiful patterns for beginners for all occasions?
Knitting French rib for beginners
This elastic band is reminiscent of the “corrugated” technique and, despite its simplicity, is quite different from the 1 x 1 and 2 x 2 we are used to. It can be used when finishing skirts and dresses.
Schematic illustration
The number of loops is a multiple of 4 + 1 for symmetry.
For the sample, we cast on with knitting needles the number of stitches, cr. 4 + 1 + 2 cr. p. (in our case, 31 p.).
1 p.: *2 l.p., 2 i.p.*, from * to *, 1 l. P..
2 p.: *2 i. p., 2 l. p.*, from * to *, 1 and. P..
3 p.: start repeating from the 1st p..
Unusual elastic band with oblique loops
This treatment not only has a decorative effect, it is quite practical - elastic and springy, such an elastic band is suitable for processing the edge of a hat, sweater, jacket or dress.
We use knitting needles to cast on a number of stitches that are a multiple of 5 (in addition to the edge stitches).
Important! Our pattern consists of an odd number of groups of 5 loops. If you decide to knit a product with an even number of “fives”, make a shift by 1 stitch.
First cr. We remove the p., we knit the last one and. P..
1-2 pp.: *1 l. p., 1 i. p.*, from * to *.
3 p.: *skipping l. n., put in sp. into the hole below and. p., pull out the thread, yarn over, 2 p. on the left sp. we knit behind the back wall *, from * to *, l. P..
Repeat 3-4 pp. for the pattern.
Oblique elastic band 3 x 3
This double-sided pattern is universal and is also suitable for finishing the edges of products.
For the sample, we use knitting needles to cast on a number of stitches that is a multiple of 3 + 2 edge stitches, then follow the description.
1 rub.: *3 l. p., 3 i. p.*, from * to *.
2 r. and all even lines: according to the pattern - l. p. over l. p., i. n. over i. P..
3 r.: r.: 1 i. p., *3 l. p., 3 i. p.*, 3 l. p., 2 i. P..
5 rubles: 2 i. p., *3 l. p., 3 i. p.*, 3 l. p., 1 i. P..
7 rubles: *3 i. p., 3 l. P.*.
9 rubles: 1 l. p., *3 i. p., 3 l. n.*, 3 i. p., 2 l. P..
11 rubles: 2 l. p., *3 i. p., 3 l. n.*, 3 i. p., 1 l. P..
RUR 13: repeat from RUR 1..
Converging elastic band for beginners
It is rather an elastic, well-stretchable fabric, suitable for knitting hats and scarves.
Schematic illustration
1-2 pp.: regular rubber band.
3-4 pp.: shift the pattern by 1 p. (see diagram), continue as usual.
5 p.: again shift by 1 p. and continue in the same way until the desired length of the product.
Depending on which direction you shift the drawing, the diagonal will go in that direction. If you need to knit a pattern like in the picture, combine both patterns..
Bamboo
Diluted with garter stitch, this elastic band turns out to be quite elastic. It is used for knitting hats, scarves and sweaters.
Schematic illustration
1 p.: *2 i. p., 2 l. p.*, from * to *, finish 2 and. P..
2 rubles: 2 l. p., 2 i. p.*, from * to *, finish 2 l. P..
We alternate these two rows to create the desired pattern.
Elastic band for beginners
The pattern repeat is 5 points: 2 and. p. and 3 l. p.. To get a symmetrical pattern, we should use knitting needles to cast on a number of stitches that is a multiple of 5 + 2 symmetry stitches + 2 edge stitches..
1 rub.: 1 cr. n., *2 i. p., 3 l. n.*, 2 i. p., 1 cr. n. as i. P..
2 r. and all even pp.: according to the pattern, 1 cr. p., *2 l. p., 3 i. p.*, 2 l. p., 1 cr. n. as i. P..
3 rubles: 1 cr. n., *2 i. p., right sp. add between 2 and 3 liters. p., pick up the working thread and pull out a new p., 1 yarn over, knit 3 l. p.vm. behind the back wall*, 2 i. p., 1 cr. n. as i. P..
4 rubles: 1 cr. p., *2 l. p., 3 i. p.*, 2 l. p., 1 cr. n. as i. P..
Repeat 3-4 pp. for drawing.
Three out of three
This rubber band is very similar to the previous one, it differs in that in the 3rd p. 3 l. We knit together. Rapport is 5 + 2 symmetries + 2 cr. P..
“Three out of three”: enter sp. immediately in 3 liters. p., pick up the working thread with knitting needles and pull out 1 stitch as knit.. Then pick up the working thread on the other side, creating a yarn over on the sp., near the already received st..
Scheme 1, 2 and 4 pp. like the rubber band “spike”.
3 rubles: 1 cr. p., * 2 i. p., 3 l. p. we knit them three *, 2 and. p., 1 cr. P..
Repeat 3-4 pp. to the required length.
Norwegian gum
It is slightly different from the 1 x 1 we are used to: in this case we use the “under the eyelet” technique, which makes the knitted fabric more fluffy and elastic. This knitting is suitable for fluffy scarves and snoods.
Number of p. cr. 2 + 1 p. symmetry + 2 cr. P..
1 rub.: 1 cr. n., *1 l. p., 1 i. p.*, 1 l. p., 1 cr. n. as i. P..
2 rubles: 1 cr. p., 1 i. n., *1 l. p., 1 i. p.*, 1 cr. n. as i. P..
3 r. and all further pp. we knit “under a loop”: L. p. – “under a loop”, and. p. - in the usual way. For knitting l. p., right sp. we start not in the point on the left sp., but in the point located under it (the point of the previous row).
Corrugated
This two-color knitting pattern turns out to be quite soft and elastic, so it is ideal for any winter clothes and accessories. It is knitted only on circular sp., since during the work we will move the knitting, and not turn it, as on regular sp..
Scheme
Important! This description assumes that cr. p. at the beginning of the river It is not removed, as usual, but is knitted, as the diagram shows.
For the sample, we cast on an even number of stitches with knitting needles..
1 rub. (green): l. P..
2 r. (grey)? 1 l. p., *knit 1 l. p. for 1 rub. below, 1 l. p.*, do not turn, but move the p. to the other side of the sp..

How to knit braids with knitting needles - diagrams and descriptions of patterns
It should be noted that there are specifics of work here, which you should definitely familiarize yourself with before starting knitting. So, how to knit with braids? For this auxiliary knitting needles are required, which come in different sizes. Their thickness should be selected according to a simple principle: auxiliary knitting needles should be slightly smaller than working knitting needles.
By what principle are braids knitted? During operation, the hinges are constantly moving. Several loops are transferred to the auxiliary knitting needle, leaving them behind or in front of the work, after which, in accordance with the selected pattern, a certain number of loops are knitted, and then the loops previously set aside on the auxiliary knitting needle are put into work.
To make it clear on what principle braids are knitted, let’s consider several options for working with knitting needles in this style, including for beginner needlewomen.

To understand the basics of knitting braids, let's consider the simplest option, ideal for beginners. This braid knitting tutorial assumes that the auxiliary knitting needles are replaced with a simple pin, which is extremely convenient if you have not yet acquired the necessary tools.
How to knit a braid - master class for beginners
Let's make a braid with 8 loops. Let’s cast on 14 loops for the sample (12 loops for the braid and its “framing” + 2 edge loops) and follow the diagram.
1st row: 2 purl, 8 knit, 2 purl;
From 2nd to 4th row We knit what the knitting looks like - we knit knit stitches above the knit stitches, and purl stitches above the purl stitches (photo 1).
5th row: Purl 2, 4 loops re-slip, without knitting them, onto an auxiliary needle and leave ahead of the work; knit the next 4 loops (at the beginning of knitting them, try not to have a large stretch between the loops). Then we slip 4 loops from the auxiliary needle onto the left needle and also knit them. It turned out that our loops seemed to cross with an inclination to the left (photos 2 and 3).
From 6th to 12th row - we knit according to the pattern.
Now let's look at more complex knitted braids - diagrams with descriptions will help in this difficult task for beginners.

What to choose for a women's cardigan?
A braid for a women's cardigan can look different: large, small, repeating, combined with other braids or in a single copy, but it will always give the knitted item an original look.
Knitting pattern for braids and designations:
— 10 loops cross to the left (slip 5 loops onto an auxiliary needle and leave before work
, knit the next 5 loops, then 5 loops with aux. knitting needles).
- cross 10 loops to the right (slip 5 loops onto an auxiliary needle and leave at work
, knit the next 5 loops, then 5 loops with aux. knit the knitting needles).
The diagram shows both front and back rows. We read the front (odd rows) from right to left, the purl (even rows) we read from left to right.
The width of the braid is 20 loops. We repeat in height from the 1st to the 12th row. The number of rows in the pattern in height can be increased, depending on the required pattern.
In the classic version, if we weave 5X5 braids, then between the weaves we knit 10 rows in height (including knit and purl). In this model, the number of rows in the pattern needs to be increased in height to 16 rows.
Pattern for mittens
A good mood and warmth this winter will be created by mittens knitted from braids, which you can knit for yourself, your sister, your friend, your mother.
This knitting pattern may be difficult for beginners, since the mittens need to be knitted using five stocking needles.
Progress:
We cast on 52 loops - 13 loops per knitting needle. We knit an elastic band 2x2, approximately 40 rows. Follow the diagram and description to understand how to properly knit braids on mittens.
We knit a finger on the 10th row. On the side of the small braids, add to the two middle loops - 3 times in the second row. Then in the third row 3 times. When there are 18 loops, transfer them to a pin and continue knitting the mitten. The finger can be tied later. It is knitted exactly like the mitten itself, only in a smaller size.
Next comes double knitting, in the first row on knitting needles we alternately knit one knit stitch and two knit stitches together. In the second row with facial loops, two loops together and so on until the end of the row. Pull all remaining loops.

The elastic band described is good not only for hats. It can also be used as a finishing material for various outdoor knitwear.
Technique for knitting a beautiful elastic band.
We cast on loops in multiples of 5 (except for edge loops). It should be taken into account that the sample contains an odd number of “fives”, and the entire description is focused on this number. If you have an even number of such groups, then you will need to shift by one loop.
Therefore, it is better to first knit a sample (there are 17 loops in the example) to understand the pattern, and then perform it on your product. We remove the first edge without knitting, we knit the last one purl.
Progress
1. The first and second rows are elastic *l, i*.
2. Having skipped the front stitch, we thread the knitting needle into the hole below the purl loop,
pull out the thread.
3. Yarn over.
4. Knit two loops on the left needle.
5. We continue the pattern from point 2 to point 4 for each pair of loops, the last one is knitted.
6. Turn and knit rapport *2 knit purls together, knit 1*,
1 purl.
7. Continue with step 2.
8. The entire sample looks like this:
When knitting a beautiful elastic band for a headdress, the hat itself can be knitted in any way; here the main decoration is the elastic band. The rim can be made even wider than in the example. The hat does not need to be overloaded with details, so it is better if its fabric is even, then the charm of the elastic band itself, which turns out to be voluminous and quite thick, is not lost. And here is a video MK from YouTube by master Lina Yartseva.
