Simple baktus: master class for beginners
Baktus crocheted according to the simplest pattern and description is suitable for beginner needlewomen. It is knitted in about 6-7 hours. From materials it is necessary to buy yarn, and from tools – hook №3.
Knitting begins with 1 ch. The work is done with a fantasy pattern with increases on both sides 13 times on a motif in 4 rows. When the height of the work reaches about 50 cm (or 27 motifs), knitting ends.
The binding remains, which is made from 3 ch. without nak. in the arc of the ch. of the previous line, after 5 ch. make a loop without nak. in the extreme ch. without nak. Thus repeat to the end, making the binding on three sides.
Crochet baktus (the diagram and description for beginners are very simple) is suitable for getting your hand in and learning to knit. It is difficult to spoil such a thing, and the materials will not cost much.
Crocheting the edge of the baktus
An important role in the creation of any knitted product is played by the final finishing of the edge. Thanks to a large variety of bindings, even the simplest baktus can be decorated. At the same time, all options are available to beginners.
Some options:
- Crayfish step. It is the most common type of binding. You will need to knit a straight row in a circle with a single crochet. Then knit a crab step: you need to insert the hook into the second loop, pull the thread out of it, knit a yarn over and close the loop. The rapport continues to the end, the thread is secured and cut.
- Pico. It is often woven in a circle. The first row is cut off at the end, and knitting continues from the first loop in the first row. The second row consists of three single crochet stitches, one picot. The pattern rapport is repeated to the end. The binding is finished with a single crochet stitch, the thread is secured and cut off.
- Cones. It is made by tying in a circle. The first row is straight or in a circle with columns without nak. Another circle is made of two v. p., the loop of the previous row is skipped, then a half-column with nak is knitted, caught in the next loop twice. Five resulting loops are knitted, repeated in this way to the end. The thread is secured and cut off.
- Arch. Also done in a circle. The first row is knitted with a single crochet. The new row begins with a single crochet in the loop of the previous row. After that, three ch are knitted, two unfinished single crochets with three loops that are on the hook. The 3 base loops do not need to be touched. Everything is repeated and ends with a half-column without crochet in the first initial loop. Finally, the thread is secured and cut off.
There are other processing methods, but these are the most popular.
