Crochet patterns for scarf, snood. Schemes, description simple, beautiful, openwork

For many people, a snood or scarf has become an indispensable thing in winter. They allow you to warm up on cold days and can decorate your image. Since both the scarf and the snood are straight fabric, they are often knitted independently. Using crochet patterns for scarf, you can knit a beautiful and bright accessory that complements your look.

Choosing yarn and hook

When choosing yarn, you need to focus on the composition of the thread. So, for winter scarves, it is recommended to choose semi-woolen and thick woolen threads. It is important to consider that the threads should be pleasant to the touch. To understand whether the thread is suitable for work, you can put a skein of yarn to your cheek.

The yarn should also not shrink when washed, should not fade. Therefore, when buying yarn, you need to focus on these parameters. Mixtures of acrylic, viscose and wool threads are considered easy to wash. They also do not fade or lose their shape. The fiber mixture should not contain more than 20% synthetic material.

For scarves for autumn and winter, it is recommended to select the following types of yarn:

• fleece;
• angora;
• mohair;
• alpaca;
• merino;
• cashmere;
• acrylic;
• wool mixture

Since a snood is a headdress that is often worn in winter, it should be knitted from thick and warm yarn. Craftswomen often knit snoods for winter from wool.

1. Sheep wool — the most popular type of yarn for making scarves. It is also considered inexpensive. To avoid discomfort when wearing, do not use yarn that is 100% sheep wool. To ensure that the product can be worn without problems, you can buy threads consisting of wool and acrylic.
2. Merino wool — high-quality thread. It is thin and pleasant to the touch, but it is expensive. At the same time, a snood knitted from such wool does not irritate the skin and warms in winter.
3. Alpaca — an expensive material for making snoods. Yarn made from llama wool is warm, strong, and snoods made from such wool do not pill.
4. Mohair — yarn made from goat wool. It is very fluffy and quite thin. Since mohair would delaminate without a mixture of other materials, a small percentage of other materials, such as acrylic, is always added to it. The disadvantage of this type of yarn is the abundance of fluff that can get into the nose or mouth.
5. Angora — yarn made from angora rabbit down. Pure yarn consisting only of angora is not produced. Despite the fact that a rabbit down snood is very warm and light, it is difficult to care for. Thus, it cannot be washed by hand, it can only be dry-cleaned. For this reason, angora is very rarely used for snoods.
6. Cashmere — yarn from the down of Tibetan goats. Cashmere yarn is the most expensive, works from it are light and thin. Such snoods are often given for holidays.

When choosing yarn, it is necessary to take into account the features of the style. Both the snood and the scarf can be knitted with simple patterns. The snood is a straight piece of fabric sewn into a ring. It can be knitted with a different number of turns around the neck.

Snoods are knitted from yarn consisting of wool and acrylic. Since it is used as a headdress, you need to take yarn of medium thickness. A product made of thick yarn will be too heavy and uncomfortable. The wool in the threads for a snood should not be more than 50%.

Often all the information about which hook goes with the selected yarn is contained on the skein label. If the label is lost, you can select a hook for the yarn as follows.

You need to insert a thread of yarn into the hook notch. If it falls out or does not cover the hook, you need to select a hook of a different size.

The hook and yarn match if the yarn does not completely cover the hook.

Hooks are made from various materials. Plastic hooks are considered the cheapest. Their disadvantage is fragility, they often break when knitting. Wooden hooks are pleasant to the touch, the yarn slides well on them if they were made correctly. However, they can easily break and are often quite expensive.

Aluminum hooks are stronger than plastic and wooden ones. The yarn slides well on the hook during work. It is inexpensive and almost never breaks. However, thin hooks can bend or slip out of your hands during knitting.

The steel hook is considered the most durable, does not bend or break. The thread also slides easily along it during knitting. The disadvantages include the high price.

The hook handle can be wooden or plastic, and the tip can be made of metal. The handle can be made both curved and straight. If the hook is made poorly, the handle can fall off the tip.
