In this article, I advise everyone interested in assembling embroidery patterns for unusually attractive napkins crochet, and in addition I will describe their methods. To weave napkins, you need to have certain skills and be truly a professional in using knitting needles. This includes the elegance of the final product and sophistication, which is an indicator of your skill, and learning the knitting technique is not difficult.
Highlights
Knitted napkins turn out to be unusually light and in their appearance resemble material snowflakes - the personification of flight and airiness. Extensive application due to a number of advantages:
Knitted napkins are an important item for an establishment where comfort and warmth must always be present. Similar associations should arise in everyone who agreed to learn how to knit napkins with knitting needles.
In the future, they will be able to create similar decorations themselves, according to these arguments, in a modern, modern manner, using the most unusual methods, and they will also be able to make napkins of one shape or another, unusual configurations with drawings and detailed patterned elements. This can only be done with strict miniature directions and real skill in weaving threads.
Experienced needlewomen have been working on napkins for a long time, but other users can learn this skill in the same way. Knitting patterns will attract absolutely everyone, and the product will always be in demand for ordinary buyers.
Don't forget that knitted napkins are not only beautiful decorations for long-lasting memories.
2 knitting methods:
- thin;
- ring
In elementary crochet knitting there is direct movement first and back with a turn to complete any formation and making canopies. In this case, areas are not formed by fastening the thread to complete any structure. In ring knitting, a product or tubular figure is tied together in the absence of a seam.
Crocheting is painstaking work
When knitting, the thread is guided by the index finger on the left side. The hook is held in the left hand by the huge and index fingers. The thread falls into a hook stretched into an independent loop and is stretched through it.
The main types of canopies in crochet knitting:
- weightless;
- half-column;
- a column without a double crochet or a column with them.

Surprisingly, this product will be a good platform for training beginners, and is also a pedestal for pros. In the process itself, it will be possible to learn the craft and thus create masterpieces, having already gotten the hang of it. For example, napkins of not very large volume are suitable for beginners for the purpose of training.
Let us also assume that interest in knitting this product makes it possible to attract many inexperienced users. Also, those who want to make their first napkin should focus their interest on the fact that the product also has different configurations. Here it is possible to note the traditional whole napkins with lace around the edges.
The knitting skill is also honed by the fact that various canopies are used in simple napkins - these are:

Detailed diagrams and guide for beginners
Let's start exploring alternatives to knitting these lightweight products; the main quality is considered to be the preservation of comfort in the home, and diagrams and detailed displays of the activity will greatly simplify our task.
It is immediately necessary to highlight that beginners do not need to be intimidated by difficult techniques.
Weaving napkins is absolutely open to beginners. In order to learn faster, you need to choose a number of simple knitting alternatives for the basics. Let's start with ordinary knitting patterns, after which we can move on to the most difficult, but no less exciting ones.
For the purpose of the foundation, of course, it is necessary to select an ornament around which further knitting will take place. Of course, at first there is no need to select very difficult shapes, although they look extremely elegant. If suddenly something doesn’t work out, you will quickly lose interest and simply give up weaving at the initial stage. For this reason, the hands still need to be trained, which means it is necessary to select an elementary knitting pattern.
Before you start
The thickness of the hook with which you will weave a napkin depends on the thickness of your preferred threads. The more delicate the hook, the softer the thread used should be.
Beautiful and simple napkin for the table
Simple diagram:
We collect a chain with 8P, combine it into a ring and perform it according to the following scheme.
Step by step guide
- We do several: 1 VP, 16 StbN, SST. First, we change the knitting stitches in the proper amount: VP, 1P StbSN, 5 VP x 8.
- We make several weaves around the arch with 5 VP. SST, 5 StbSN, 2 VP x 8, SST; 4 We collect the next 5 sts of the previous formation and arrange them: 2 StbSN, 3 StbSN, 2 StbSN, 2 VP x 8, SST;
- We omit the 2nd and 6th columns, add 5 StbSN, 3 VP, about 2 VP - 1 StbSN, 2 VP, 1 StbSN x 8 SST. Near the arch, to all VPs without exception, we attach 1 StbSN, 2 VP, 1 StbSN, 3 VP SST;
- We start tying SST near the arch and attach 1 StbSN, 3 VP, 1 StbSN, 3 VP, miss 1 arch and repeat the weaving. We finish with several 1 VP, 1 PStbSN. Next, we make a few more 1 StbN near the arch and 5 StbSN near the next one, SST. We cut the thread and do not forget to fix it.
Yarn “Solar Lace”
This napkin is for vases. Its caliber is within 12.5 cm. To knit this napkin we need Jonquil yarn 100g 395m of mercerized fabric and hook 2.
Note: SSN – single crochet stitch, VP – weightless eyelet, SP – mounting eyelet, Pico – 3 VP, combined, SBN – single crochet stitch.
Step by step guide
- In area 3 VP we attach 15 SSN to the third VP. 2 5 VP, 1SSN are combined into SSN formation (PR), 2 VP are combined into the 3rd VP. 3 1SP in the 4th VP, 3 VP and 3SSN are attached with a single top to the PR arch, 4 VP, 4-SSN with the top to the PR arch, 4 VP, VP are combined into the third;

Oval
Such napkins are always comfortable and warm, like old houses. Previously, there were several round-shaped napkins in everyday life, which were passed down through the family tree to this day. Now the time has come to learn this craft of weaving similar homemade napkins.
A round napkin with diagrams and display will undoubtedly help you create and give a wonderful present to your loved ones, who will nostalgically appreciate your gift.
The size of our napkin is 24 cm. To organize the weaving you will need 50 g 208 m hebash snow-white yarn and a 1.5 hook.
For the purpose of countersinking, combine the chain with 8 VP and close it with 1 SST into a ring. Then attach ring lines and combine 4 sockets with each other in an outer formation. Add thread with arrows near the sockets in circular lines.
Traditional way of knitting a figured napkin:
Step by step guide
- To weave this product you will need yarn from threads of red and azure tones, fabric 25 g 150 m and snow-white thread 100 g 400 m, hook 1.15.
- Take 45 light canopies, then make a column with a chain of ten loops and attach the cr-m 5 VP and dc in the 6th loop of the chain.
- Link a connecting column to complete the first formation. In any arch, place a column without a double crochet, a half-column, 3 columns with a double crochet, a half-k and again a column without a double crochet. Mix these components with 2 VP. Having tied the outer side, knit a ring with 8 VP, without ceasing to twist the upper part.
- To complete the SP formation, place 4 VP and a column with 3 double crochets in the VP of the 1st formation. The result should be a shaped ring. 3 In the 3rd formation we knit arches with 5 or 6 VP.
- Then, we make 2 arches and a grid with 3 VP. 5 In the 6th formation, alternate chains with 5 VP and single crochets in the center of the arches of the previous formation. 6 Knit 5 stitches into any arch, separating them VP.
- We weave 4 arches with VP. Rally a few more stations with N, broken by VP. We form 3 formations according to 7 VP. Let's start knitting with red thread. In the diagram, the role of the basis of a given system is marked with a red triangle. We attach an arch with 7 VP, then a double stitch and twist it.
- We will tie 14 double stitches into this arch, in the opposite direction. We twist it again. We attach 3 VP, 2 VP, treble s/n. Repeat steps 1-7 one more time and continue weaving according to the pattern.
If you start attaching the next component instead of 3 VPs, then knit 3 mounting posts, wrap them, and do not stop weaving the napkin according to the pattern. To complete this piece, SPlot 4 VP and connect the column.
Now tie it with azure thread. Increase the number of VP sts with double crochet. In the extreme formation, we form any arch from 3 VP, 3 columns with a nth and a single top, a pin with 5 VP, 3 VP.
Round
This is the most famous type of absolutely all possible napkins produced using a crochet hook. The variety of designs and ornaments surprises both beginners and experienced workers. Let's analyze a number of alternatives and knitting techniques. The caliber of the upcoming convex napkin is 20 cm. We prepare yarn from one hundred percent mercerized fabric 100 g 395 m, hook No. 2.
Note: SP – mounting eye, VP – weightless eye, SSN – single crochet column, SBN – single crochet column, PR – previous several, A – single highest step, i.e. 2 CH are knitted together, Pico - 4 VP and 1SBN in the main VP.
Tablecloth made from napkins
There should be 8 VP in total. We combine 1 5 VP, 1SSN, 2 VP into the 3rd VP, including the 2nd formation and attach them to 3 VP. At the base of the formation we add another 2SSN, 3 VP and 3SSN in 1SSN PR, combining this into the 3rd VP. We make 2SSN from SSN PR, 4 VP, 5СНН and connect them into the last SSN and 1SSN, combine everything into the 3rd VP:
Step by step guide
- Several 6SSN, made according to the scheme: 2SSN from the SSN to the last SSN of the PR and 1SSN in the half, joined with 4 VP, 7SSN. Next, as in the 3rd formation: add 1SSN to any independent SSN in the center, form a connection with three VPs.
- We connect 8SSN with 5 VP and 9SSN, made according to the scheme indicated in the previous step 4, we connect in the 3rd VP 6 10SSN, 6 VP, 11SSN volume in the 3rd VP + 1SP. In conclusion, we make 8SSN, 1SSN PR, 8 VP, 9SSN independent, keeping 1SSN on both edges or create a parallelogram, join 8 6SSN, 13 VP, 7СМ in the 3rd VP + 1SP into the 3rd VP + 1SP.

From 7VP we thread into the 4th SBN PR, made according to the scheme: 2SSN with A, 3VP, 7VP, 2SSN, we supplement them into the 3rd VP.
- 4VP, pin from 3VP, we add into arches with VP PR is 2SSN with A, 2VP, mesh, 2VP, 2SSN with A, 3VP, pin, 4VP, 1SSN, weave them into the 3rd VP.
Napkin “Tenderness”
The most difficult type of convex napkin, but the final result will certainly be very interesting. The finished decoration will be 36 cm in diameter, and you will need 50 g 220 m blue yarn and a No. 2 hook.
Abbreviations for the pattern: StbSN – double crochet, VP – weightless eyelet, Pet – eyelet. We start weaving by forming 8 VPs that need to be braided.
Step by step guide
- We start each subsequent row with 3 VP, which replaces 1 StbSN. We end any of them with a column. 1 2 StbSN, 2 VP - repeat 8 times
- In any StbSN of the previous formation VP we fly 2 StbSN, 2 VP-8 times 3 2StbSN in 1 loop, 1StbSN we thread into the next 2 loops, 2StbSN in 1 loop, 2 VP, we repeat VP until the end of formation 4 2StbSN in 1 loop, 1StbSN we attach in the next 4 loops, 2StbSN in 1 stitch, 2 VP, until the end of the formation.
- 2StbSN in 1 loop, 1StbSN weave to the next 6 canopies, 2StbSN in 1 loop, 2 VP, we do until the end of the line 6 2StbSN in 1 loop, 1StbSN in the next 8 canopies, 2StbSN in 1 loop, 2 VP, repeat until o. Art.
- 2StbSN in 1 loop, 1StbSN in the next 10 canopies, 2StbSN in 1 loop, 2 VP to o. Art.
Square
Not good famous model crocheted napkins, however, are also fascinating. It attracts attention with its beauty, and thus with the difficult process of creation. You will be able to test a number of knitting alternatives according to the following patterns. When preparing, you will need snow-white yarn from fabric and other material, 50 g 160 m, size No. 2.
Note: SSN – double crochet, SBN – double crochet, VP – weightless eyelet, SZN – double crochet, SP – mounting eye. Do not forget that in subsequent knitting the portal 3 VPs are replaced by 1 SSN. Do the work as shown in the pictures, but do not forget to look at the diagram so that all the factors are clear.
We start weaving with a sliding loop and attach a ring of 3 VP, 1 SSN, 5 VP, 2 SSN with a single cluster top, 5 VP inside. We repeat everything 6 more times. To complete the formation, instead of 5 VPs, we add 2 VPs and 1 SSN to the initial cluster. There were 8 arches with 5 VP 2 6 VP, SBN next to the next arch with 5 VP. Repeat this step until the formation is complete. We complete with 3 VP and 1 SSN in a single column CH 3 7 VP from the same 1 SSN + 4 BVP. In the main arch we make 6 SSN, 4 VP, 1 SSN near the next one and 4 VP. Repeat and complete in third VP.
Each scheme requires attention and concentration.
Step by step guide
- 4 VP from the same 1 SSN +1 VP, connect 1 SSN into one loop + 4 VP. Above each SSN of the 3rd formation we attach 1 SSN and 1 VP in columns, 4 VP according to the scheme 1 SSN, 1 VP, 1 SSN are combined into a column of CH of the 3rd formation, 4 VP. Above any SSN of the 3rd order we connect 1 SSN and 1 VP in columns, 4 VP. Repeat everything up to o. Art. We finish with several combinations into the third VP.
- In the subsequent formation we will attach 4 VP, as 1 SSN + 1 VP. We will connect 1 SSN near the VP of the 4th formation. We form 1 VP and 1 SSN into a column with n. We leave 4 VP, 1 SBN near the main VP of the 4th formation - that’s 4 VP, 1 SBN to VP and so on 3 more times, 4 VP. We finish the formation and connect it into the 3rd VP.
- We do 4 VP as 1 SSN + 1 VP. We leave 1 SSN near the main VP, 1 VP. 1 SSN in the CH column, 1 VP, 1 SSN near the VP, 1 VP, 1 SSN in the CH column, 4 VP, 1 SBN on the main arch consisting of 4 VP, 1 SBN and so on 2 more times, 4 VP. We repeat the completion of the formation.
- We braid 3 VP as 1 SSN, 1 VP, 1 SSN 7 more times. Let's make 4 VP, 1 SBN into an arch. 4 VP, 1 SBN will be left near the arch 2 times in a row, 4 VP. We are finishing the build.
- We weave 3 VPs like 1 SSN. 2 VP, 1 SSN 7 more times. 4 VP, 1 SBN in the main arch, 4 VP, 1 SBN near the arch, 4 VP. We complete the formation again and combine into the 3rd VP 9 3 VP. We form it as 1 SSN, and 3 VP, 1 SSN 7 more times. 4 VP, 1 SBN in the 1st arch and 4 VP. We complete the weaving.
- We weave 5 VP as 1 SZN. Let's connect 1 VP, 1 SSN into the SN column. 1 VP, 2 SSN near the arch and 1 VP 7 more times. 1 SSN, 1 VP, 2 C3H with a single top. Repeat until the end of the line. We complete 1 С3Н and connect it into 5 VP 11. We do it in any column and connect it to the SN of the tenth formation. We connect 4 VPs as 1 SSN + 1 VP, 1 SSN, a grid of 3 VPs and 1 VP. Repeat until the end and finish by combining into the 3rd VP. We cut the thread and fix it.
Festive
The lace will be 23 by 20 cm in diameter, and with the binding a little larger. This type of knitting is called fillet weaving. We prepare yellowish yarn 36 g 150 m from material and fabric, hook No. 2, blunt needle.
Detailed Description:
According to the diagram, we get 23 cells. In order to think over the required number of VP for the purpose of 1 chain, you should increase 23 by 3 and then add 3 more VP for the purpose of turning. There should be a total of 72 loops and remember that a napkin filled with structure elements is 2 SSN from inside the cell, and a useless one is 2 VP. Even circles are read according to left side, to the right, and unpaired ones - from the right side to the left.
We start with a 4VP chain, so the 1st element is filled. If one of the elements turns out to be useless, then you will need to add 2 more VPs and place them in the 8th VP. We connect the SSN into any loop of the chain until the end of the line. The result is 70 SSNs, taking into account three growth overhangs replacing the 1st SSN.
We start with 3 VP, then 2 SSN and another 1 SSN, 2 VP, drop 2 in the base and in 1 SSN, and again 2 VP in the third SSN. In this way we weave until the final cell according to the diagram, i.e. at the end of the formation there should be 4 SSNs. We complete the SSN with 3 loops and increase. In total, there will be 23 cells in service, of which 2 on the outskirts are full.
All loops are counted; if necessary, you can mark them separately.
This is an unpaired system. We start weaving from the right side to the left according to the pattern. 1 element is full, then 8 free cells, 5 filled and you get 16 SSN, 8 free, 1 filled. Full cells are connected into one arch of light canopies. 4 1 element complete from 4 SSN8, 6 free, 2 filled 7 SSN, 5 free, two full 7 SSN, 6 free, 1 filled 4 SSN.
The lace starts from the left side to the right. If the gaps in the meshes are very large, it means that the loops are loose and it is necessary to change the hook to a small one - then the weaving will become denser.
Next we proceed to the following weaving pattern:
1 filled element 4 SSN, 1 simple, 1 full 4 SSN, 2 with gaps, 4 filled 13 SSN, 2 empty, 2 full 7 SSN, 1 empty, 4 filled 13 SSN, 2 with gaps, 1 full 4 SSN, 1 empty , 1 completed 4 SSN. The diagram is read from left to right.
In order not to miss the SSN unit in the formation, it is necessary to control the weaving by counting the number of filled cells one after another, then multiply them by 3 and add 1. For example, you have ten full cells one after another and this means that you need to calculate empty: 10 cells 3 SSN + 1SSN = 34 SSN. According to this, 10 full cells are the same and equal to the 34th SSN.
We begin to knit the next 28 rows according to the pattern.
The product only has windy cells, in addition to the 1st and final ones, which are considered the frame of the knitted image. We carry out an attractive binding according to the scheme, so the base will turn into an attractive napkin with a processed end. We turn the lace to face us and instantly tie 1 SSN into the 4th loop of the warp, without adding extra trim.
Having knitted the first SSN, we weave a mesh of 3 light canopies, strengthen it with a column into the main light loop. Next, we again thread 1 SSN into nth grounds grids In this way you should be able to make 6 SSNs in one point and 5 pins around. Now we strengthen the 4th loop with a mounting stitch and again, in the 4th loop we knit 6 SSN with a pin.
The decorations are secured along the frontal lobes using any 2 lines and a side loop. We tighten the p-ku and hide the thread with the support of the needle with a stupid ending in the weave. After washing, the loops will settle down, and will completely align after ironing.
Final stage
After the napkin is ready, it must be thoroughly steamed and starched. Users do not yet know how to starch a knitted napkin and the following guide will help. Having studied the instructions, we can conclude that all methods are outdated and no longer relevant. First you have to prepare glue from starch, but this turns out to be quite problematic due to the lack of pure starch.
Note
It is much easier and faster to soak a napkin in wallpaper glue, which in its structure contains particles of starch that do not cause yellowness. After drying, the napkin becomes white, and excess glue disappears instantly, its appearance becomes simply flawless.
Apply a weak composition by diluting it with water and dip a napkin in it, then let it dry. After this, you yourself will notice that in front of you is an excellent copy, uniform, without stains or curls, which can be given as a gift.
Wallpaper superglue is easy to stir, but be careful not to stain the product with excess glue, otherwise stains will appear.
In conclusion, I would like to say that knitted napkins are probably very fashionable. For recent years The demand for this kind of openwork decoration is only increasing, and weaving napkins yourself is even more interesting. This is due to the great possibilities of their use in everyday life.
Probably every person knows how elegant napkins look on small tables, bedside tables, or conveniently located under flower pots and vases, and this product can provide actual benefits to everyone.
Here are just some of the benefits this product can provide:
- Firstly, knitted items have their own uniqueness. With them you will always stand out in the crowd, if you can meet people wearing similar clothes.

You can crochet a napkin using a high-quality pattern. Knitting a napkin begins from the center. Having cast a chain of 10 air loops, close them into a ring with a connecting post. To start knitting the first row, make 4 air. lifting loops, then from the initial ring knit 23 double crochets. Finish the row with a connecting stitch in the last lifting loop.
Knit the second row with arches of 7 chain stitches, secure the arches with single crochets, through 2 loops along the row, making 7 chain stitches, for the 8th cast on 2 chain stitches. and work a double crochet stitch from the first stitch of the row. So on the eighth arch the transition is made to knitting the next row.
Next, knit a napkin according to a pattern with 49 circular rows. In the last 49th row, the edge of the napkin is tied with small bumps. At the beginning, make a single crochet, *for the bump, cast on 3 air loops and knit 2 single crochets from the single crochet, secure the bump along the row with a single crochet from the next arch*, repeat from* to*. Having knitted the cones in a circle, make a connecting stitch into the first stitch of the row, fasten and cut the thread.
IN modern world, when many functions have been taken over by machines, things made by hand are especially highly valued. The art of weaving lace using a crochet hook is quite easy to learn, and it is very easy to fall in love with it - just look at the masterpieces coming out of the hands of the craftswomen.

Crochet napkins for beginners
Small napkins are good because they knit quickly and thanks to this they help to “stuff your hand” well. We've picked enough easy diagram so that even a beginner could cope with it.
To knit a napkin, we need to take a hook and thick woolen threads.
Step 1: cast on 6 air loops, then connect the ends with a connecting post.
Step 2: in the first row we knit 3 chain stitches (this will be a rise), we knit 11 stitches, which are divided by one chain stitch.
Step 3: knit the 2nd row. Again we knit 3 chain stitches as a lift and knit a stitch through the chain stitch of the 1st row.
Step 4: knit an air loop, knit it into the previous V.P. two stitches and 1 yarn over. Then again to the end of the row. The series will close and connect. column.
Step 5: knit row 3. We knit a connecting post and lift it with three air loops.
This row is knitted further according to the following pattern: when we made a rise in the 1st chain stitch of the 2nd row. After two stitches are knitted, we knit 1 VP, and in the next one we knit 3 stitches with 1 crochet. The row is closed with a column, similar to the previous one.
Step 6: knit row 4. This is done in exactly the same way as with the third. You just need to knit 4 single crochet stitches. And we close, respectively, as the 3rd row.
Step 7: fifth row. We switch to a double crochet from the 4th row and knit 5 VP.
We knit a single crochet through air loop 4th row.
Then we knit 5 ch again and knit a single crochet between the two columns. And thus we finish the 5th row.
Step 8: in the extreme arch we knit 2 ch and a double crochet.
Step 9: knit the sixth row, the outermost one. In it you need to knit 8 columns with 1 crochet, and in the arch of the napkin you need to knit a single crochet.
Step 10: knit 8 double crochets into the next arch. And we knit in the same way until the end. We finish the row with a connecting column.
In the next arch we knit eight single crochet stitches. So we continue to knit until the end of the row. We finish with a connecting post.
So, we told you how to tie crochet napkin, and As a result of our lesson, you should get a small miracle napkin.
Other napkins and patterns for them
We continue crocheting napkins: diagrams and descriptions are attached.
Using a hook, for example, you can knit a wonderful napkin, the pattern of which resembles a pineapple:
To knit these napkins you will need AIDA threads and hook No. 1.25.
Knitting napkins should be started according to the patterns from point A. The pattern is knitted in a circle. The number of loops you need to cast on is in the diagram.
The star napkin looks no less elegant:
Its total diameter is 49 cm. In order to knit it, you need: cotton white yarn, about 280 meters, hook No. 1.25-1.5.
In addition to such openwork and lace napkins, you can knit a very stylish, modern napkin for the table:
To knit such a napkin, you will need multi-color yarn and a 2.5 crochet hook. Since the napkin is knitted from 2 parts, first we knit the first part, then we start knitting the second and only on the fifth row we need to start combining these parts.
All the napkins that we mentioned in our article must be washed after they are completed, and then very carefully straightened and stretched, otherwise they will lose their shape.

Napkin “Bright Sun”
We will have the next master class only with a diagram and step-by-step description. We will knit a napkin in the shape of a sun with a diameter of 15 cm, for which we will need yarn and a hook according to the thickness of the thread.
In the process of work, you must adhere to the diagram, which describes in more detail the combination of loops and the marking of columns.
Dial 8 VPs and combine them into a ring.
- 1 VP rise, 16 St BN, finish row SS.
- Rapport: 1 PSN, 5 VP. Repeat 8 times.
- Arch: SS, 5 CH, 2 VP. Repeat 8 times, ending with a SS row.
- 2 dc, 3 dc, 2 dc, 2 ch. Repeat 8 times.
- Skip stitches 2 and 6, then knit rapport as follows: 5 dc from one top, 3 ch, under 2 ch of the previous row knit 1 dc, 2 ch, 1 dc. Repeat 8 times and finish with a SS row.
- Under all the arches from VP, tie 1 CH, 2 VP, 1 CH, 3 VP. Complete row SS.
- Knit a ss under the arch, then knit a rapport: 1 dc, 3 ch, 1 dc, 3 ch. Skip one arch and repeat knitting until the end of the row. Finish row 1 VP, 1 PSN.
- Rapport: 1 sc under the arch, 5 sc under the next arch. Repeat until the end, ending with a SS row.
- Pull out the last loop, cut and fasten the thread.
Step-by-step description of the “Pineapples” pattern
Tender and beautiful pattern“Pineapple” is often used by needlewomen not only in knitting napkins, but also openwork blouses, so any craftswoman should learn to understand this scheme. Let's look at the step-by-step description in more detail; by default, each row of the pattern ends with a SS, and at the beginning, instead of 1 DC, three VPs are knitted for lifting.
- Connect 6 VPs into a SS ring. Knit 3 ch and 19 dc.
- 1 VP, repeat: 3 VP, 1 RLS in the next stitch. When finished, knit 1 sc in the first ch.
- 1 VP, rapport: 5 VP, knit 1 RLS in the arch. When finished, knit 2 ch, 1 dc in the first ch.
- 1 VP, rapport: 7 VP, knit 1 RLS in the arch. When finished, knit 3 ch, then double crochet into the first ch.
- Knit No. 5 and No. 6 by analogy with No. 4.
- Knit rows 7 and 8 as follows. 1 VP, rapport: 9 VP, 1 RLS in the arch. Finish row 4 VP, 1 double crochet in the first VP.
- 9th and 10th rows: 1 VP. Rapport: 11 VP, 1 RLS in the arch. Finish row 5 VP, 1 stitch with 4 crochets in the first VP.
- In the 11th row, knit 2 SS to the arch, then rapport: 3 VP, 1 SN, 2 VP, 2 SN, 6 VP.
- The 12th row begins with rapport: in the first arch under 2 VP, tie 3 VP, 1 CH, 2 VP, 2 CH, 6 VP. Then in the second arch 7 CH, 6 VP. Repeat until the end of the row.
- At the beginning of the 13th row, knit 2 SS to the arch, then repeat the rapport in each arch: 3 VP, 1 SN, 2 VP, 2 SN, 6 VP. Next, move to the 7th column of the previous row, you need to knit 6 times (1 dc, 1 ch), then 1 dc, 6 ch. Repeat the entire rapport until the end of the row.
- At the beginning of the 14th row, knit 2 SS to the arch, then the scheme of work is as follows: 3 VP, 1 SN, 2 VP, 2 SN, 2 VP, 2 SN, 6 VP, 1 RLS under 1 VP. Next, you need to repeat 3 VP, 1 RLS 5 times and finish the repeat with 6 VP.
- 15th row: two SS, repeat: 3 VP, 1 SN, 2 VP, 2 SN, 3 VP, under 2 VP knit 2 SN, then continue the row 2 VP, 2 SN, 6 VP, 1 RLS under VP, repeat 4 times 3 VP and 1 RLS, 6 VP. Repeat until the end of the row.
- Row 16: two SS. Rapport: 3 VP, 1 CH, 2 VP, 2 CH, 9 VP, under 2 VP tie 2 CH, 2 VP, 2 CH, 6 VP, 1 RLS under 3 VP, 3 times (3 VP+1 RLS), 6 VP.
- The beginning of the 17th row is similar: 2 SS. Rapport: 3 VP, 1 SN, 2 VP, 2 SN, 9 VP, 1 RLS under the arch, 9 VP, under 2 VP tie 2 SN, 2 VP, 2 SN, 6 VP, 1 RLS under 3 VP, 2 times 3 VP and 1 RLS 6 VP.
- 18 row: 2 SS, rapport: 3 VP, 1 SN, 2 VP, 2 SN, 9 VP twice and 1 RLS under the arch, then 9 VP, under 2 VP tie 2 SN, 2 VP, 2 SN, 6 VP, 1 RLS under 3 VP, 3 VP, 1 RLS in an arch, 6 VP.
- The beginning of the 19th row is similar to 18. Rapport: 3 VP, 1 SN, 2 VP, 2 SN, 3 times 9 VP and 1 RLS under the arch, 9 VP, 2 SN under 2 VP, 2 VP, 2 SN, 6 VP, 1 RLS under 3 VP, 3 VP, 6 VP.
- We start the last row with two SS, then according to the pattern: 3 VP, 1 VP, 2 VP, 2 SN, then 4 times 5 VP, picot from 3 VP, 5 VP, 1 RLS under the arch. We continue rapport 5 VP, picot from 3 VP, 5 VP, under two VP knit 2 CH, 2 VP, 2 CH.
Conclusion
And in conclusion, we suggest watching a master class on knitting a simple napkin in just 15 minutes.
Crocheting is a good old tradition that is still supported by many craftswomen. The popularity and prevalence of such decor greatly simplifies the search for the desired pattern and description for it. However, there is also a downside to the situation: crocheted napkins have become so boring for knitters that they have become a kind of synonym for banality. The situation is saved by the development of fresh schemes and the search for new areas of application of familiar objects.
Types of napkins
Despite the fact that the first association with the word “napkin” invariably becomes an openwork circle, there are square, pentagonal and hexagonal, rectangular, diamond-shaped and many other shapes of napkins.
In modern designs, the large one can be relatively solid or openwork) most often remains round, but squares are also often found. It must be said that decorative elements with right angles are easier to place on flat surfaces.
The basic principle of knitting napkins
Knitting work on almost any napkin begins from the center and, gradually expanding the fabric, ends with the widest row. The only exceptions are products assembled from several separately related motifs.
Both small and large (the circuit can be of any shape) requires the presence of several main components:
Depending on the specifics of the pattern, the main fabric of the product may include some elements. For example, the technique of duplicating stripes of a pattern is often used. They are placed at different distances from the center, interspersed with very openwork or, conversely, solid areas. This distribution of the ornament allows you to effectively expand the canvas while maintaining the overall harmony of the product.
Knitting napkins
This one is not large napkin knitted as follows:
- 3VP, *2VP, 1СН*, 2VP.
- 3VP, 31СН.
- *3VP, 1СБН*.
- 3VP, 5VP, *2СН with a common top, 5VP*.
- 3VP, *5VP, 1СН*.
- 3VP, *2СН, 5ВП, 2СН, 1ВП*.
- *4СН, 2ВП, 4СН, 1СБН*.
- *15VP, 1СБН*.
- *2Dc with a common top, 3Dc, 2Dc with a common base, 5VP, 2Dc with a common base, 3Dc, 2Dc with a common top*.
- *2Dc with a common top, 6Dc, 5VP, 6Dc, 2Dc with a common top*.
- *2Dcs with a common top, 7Dcs, 5VP, 7Dcs, 2Dcs with a common top*.
Dc - double crochet, sc - single crochet, VP - chain stitch.
The description from * to * must be repeated until the end of the row.
How to change napkin sizes
The technique of alternating stripes of patterns described in the previous paragraph can be extremely useful for craftswomen who want to change the size of the napkin. Individual elements can be repeated as many times as necessary or eliminated completely. An excellent example of how to crochet a napkin from several patterns is the product shown in the following photo.
There is a very wide strip connected by mesh. It is obvious that with its help the expansion of the canvas to the planned dimensions was achieved.
Circular crochet napkin patterns also allow you to combine different schemes. The height of skill can be considered the successful combination of several elements and the creation of your own unique napkin.
Large circuit and application
A large decorative element such as the one shown in the photo below has an extremely wide range of uses.
In fact, it's not even a napkin, but a real tablecloth. The size of such products depends significantly on the materials that the craftswoman chooses. The thicker the thread, the larger the napkin, but the pattern also looks rougher. Knitted from dense threads with tight twist, such a large crocheted napkin (the pattern is proposed below) becomes an interesting carpet, umbrella, blanket or bedspread.
If desired, you can complete only part of the circuit. By moving to the final binding immediately after the central part, you can get a napkin of a smaller diameter. The small motif without binding becomes convenient for use in pullovers, tops and bags. quite often placed on the yoke knitted dress or on its side.
For convenience, the napkin diagram is divided into two parts.
Central fragment.
And two stripes of patterns with binding.
Description: crochet napkins
Begin work by setting a chain of eight air loops. In the second row, perform 16 single crochets, and then continue knitting in accordance with the pattern.
The central part of the pattern contains the very popular “pineapple” elements. Here they are arranged in several rows and greatly decorate the napkin. “Pineapples” are good for expanding fabrics, which is why they are so often used in napkin patterns. The first section of the diagram ends with several rows of mesh, on which a simple pattern of “bushes” will then be placed. This geometric pattern is formed by systematically filling some grid cells with “bushes” of four double crochets. If you need to remove any element of the circuit, excluding this strip will be the most convenient.
The final part of a large napkin
The main decor of this large napkin is the wide border running along its edge. The peculiarity of the scheme is that several patterns are combined here:
- Simple triangles made of “bushes” against the background of chains of air loops.
- Double crochet zigzag stitch.
- Small "pineapples".
- Empty fillet mesh with cells of different sizes.
All these ornaments are arranged simply masterfully. The beginning of one pattern is performed simultaneously with knitting the previous one. Thus, the developers managed to organically incorporate such seemingly different ornaments.
The patterns of formation of circular patterns and the principles of making decorative fabrics described in this article will be useful to those who are looking for information on how to crochet a napkin. Of course, it’s calmer to follow a detailed plan, but only improvisation can give you the feeling of true free creativity.
