Knitting for many needlewomen is not only an exciting hobby, but also a real therapy that helps fight depression and bad mood. As a result, not only the mood rises, but new things appear in the wardrobe, which can not but rejoice. In this article, we'll talk about the features of knitting techniques for mohair articles.
Mohair is a yarn made of Angora goat wool. The convenience of knitting with knitting needles from thin and thick mohair depends on how many percent of other fibers are included in this yarn. And add to the wool of Angora goats is the usual sheep's wool, as well as acrylic fiber, which has increased strength. Cloths associated with this material are characterized by high strength, lightness, excellent heat preservation. The most common practice is knitting with knitting gloves made of mohair, berets, hats, jackets, sweaters, shawls and even carpets and rugs - everything that should give a person warmth and comfort during cold weather.
But do not think that the thickness and "fluffiness" of this yarn obliges to knit exclusively warm winter things. In our master class we will prove that open-work knitting with mohair knitting needles is quite appropriate when creating elegant, airy things that can be worn on cool summer evenings.
An openwork shawl made of mohair
In order to tie this elegant and stylish shawl, you will need:
- knitting needles (15.10 and 6 mm);
- thin mohair of four colors (50% +);
- tape measure.
- Knit a thin shawl, let's start with putting 60 loops on the spokes (6 mm), then we'll fasten eight rows with hinges. Then throw the canvas over 10 mm of the knitting needle, tie a few more rows using a different color yarn. Then again, change the spokes by 15 mm, bind 8-10 rows. Thanks to this knitting knitting you can create patterns for a thin mohair, turning them into a kind of lace. This uneven mating gives the product an exquisite look. Alternate the yarn color and the size of the spokes until the shawl reaches the desired length.
- Close the hinges of the last row when the length of the product satisfies you. Then tie the same cloth using a similar pattern. Then you must sew both canvases. To do this, use a large needle and black mohair.
