Crochet on a circle. We pick up beret - we master technique

Universal knitting tool - hook -allows you to perform a canvas that consists not only of rows, but also knit in a circle, starting from the center. Separately connected round motifs are then assembled into the product. The formation of a flat circle occurs due to a certain number of increments in rows along the course of knitting. A knitted round motif can easily be transformed into a square or a triangle, if you arrange three or four corners, grouping the loops in a certain way.

Crocheting in a circle starts from the center. To begin with, make a ring, connecting the chain with the air loops of the necessary length and closing it in a circle. The diameter of the middle hole of the circle depends on the length of the chain. Then the received ring is tied with bars, passing the hook to its center. The number of columns should be such that a flat circle turns out. There is another way of forming the center of the circle. The end of the knitting thread from the tangle folds several times and is closed in a ring, not breaking off the thread. Then a hook is introduced into the formed thread ring, the thread is drawn from the coil and the ring is tied, starting from the place of its connection, with dense columns without a crochet. This method is more suitable if the hole in the middle of the circle should be large enough. Finally, if you need to untie a circle without a visible hole in the center, then the finger of the left hand is wound with a string from the tangle, forming a ringlet. Then the hook is inserted into this ring and tied with simple sticks, the end of the thread is left visible and freely hanging. After the row of columns is connected, the left end of the thread is tightened and then neatly hidden between the posts.

After crocheting around the first circlethe central ringlets will be made, begin knitting along a circle of successive rows. Each row is necessarily started by tying one or two air loops to the height of the bars to be cut so that the rows are even. At the end, each row is closed by tying an air loop into the upper loop made for lifting. Be sure to make the increase of the loops at a certain distance from each other, tying in the loop of the previous row instead of one column two, if the crochet is crochet in a circle tight, or using chains of air loops, as stipulated in the report of the fishnet pattern.

Let's take an example to the simplest method, using crochet in a circle. The scheme of knitting a dense beret with columns without a crochet will help to master this kind of technique to novice masters.

Knitting in a circle begins with the fact that we close inring three air hinges. After this, making one air loop, we sew six simple posts, tying the ring. The next rows are tied with bunches without a crochet as usual, we insert the hook into the upper loops of the previous row. In the first row, perform two bars in each column of the previous row. In the second row, alternate two columns and one column in each loop of the previous row. Similarly we knit all subsequent series. To make the circle smooth and flat, it is important to monitor the number of added loops in each row. Having thus connected the flat bottom of the beret of the required size, we stop making increments and we knit in a circle the usual rows of columns. After tying 4-5 cm straight, we start gradually to loosen the loops. To do this, measure the diameter of the circle, divide it into the same five segments, and we sew two loops together through the distances obtained in each successive row. Having drunk a few more centimeters, we get a ready beret. The edge of the beret should be tied with dense stems or "walking step", so that it does not stretch. Crocheting around the beret is very convenient, as it can always be tried on during the work and make the necessary adjustments, if necessary.
