Learn to read by schemes
To learn how to knit such elegant and thin products, first of all, you need to be able to read the knitting patterns of the napkins. And here are some advice on competent reading:
- Figures are divided into even and odd rows. So even rows should be read from left to right, and odd right to left. An even row will be designated on the left, and an odd row - to the right;
- Usually read from below, if we knit a simple straight canvas with even and reverse rows.
We list the elements of the plan. Part of the pattern that is repeated is usually denoted by two asterisks, (**) or square brackets. Such a repeating part is called rapport. Oval is a loop that is obtained after stretching the thread through the previous one. Cross or point - a column, which means the completion of the row. The wand - the column without a Nakida, which is done like this: the hook is introduced into the loop of the previous row, and the loop itself, dressed on the hook, remains in place. Working thread is stretched and captured. As a result, two air loops are obtained at the tip of the hook. After that, again captures the thread and stretches through these loops, and only the loop-thread remains as a result. Long stick - a column with ancad.
If you see and other designations, then this napkin is already more difficult. You should not take immediately for the complex products, it is better to start with simple.

But for beginners it is better to use threads and hooks of medium thickness, for example, hook No. 1.5. When you master the aza, you can easily knit from a wide variety of threads with thin hooks.

To work, you need to take cotton threads of medium thickness and hook №1.5. If you finish work on the implementation of the second stage, a square napkin will be. The length of the product can be increased if the number of rows is increasing proportional.
First you need to link 64 air loops, then, according to the pattern, the main pattern of the web is performed, the change of knitting directions is shown by arrows. If a modular napkin is manufactured, each module can be made separately.
The figure shows a fragment of the module:
It is necessary to start knitting from the angle, but the direction of the rows is changing. The finished square is tied to the perimeter by the cutting nearby, then the modules into one will join it. The size of the product will depend on the number of fragments. After the manufacture of the required number of modules, you can start assembling the napkin. Connection locations are shown by arrows.
