The "English gum" pattern is the same both from the wrong and face. Used when viscating scarves, hats, gtering, sweaters and testers. It is successfully combined with different mating on one product. Although the pattern is easy to perform even for beginner needlewomen, there are several rules and councils that you should adhere to - you will learn about them in the article. In addition, we will teach you how to knit English with knitting needles, accompanying every step of the pictures.
English gum is a double-sided knitting with trick. Before applying the pattern on the product, always connect the sample, since the density of the canvas is visually deceptive. By typing a large number of loops, risk getting a huge sweater or vice versa, thanks to a loose knats with a good stretch. So that the pattern looked finished, dial the number of loops, dividimible on 3. For the sample, we take 15 kettles.- The needker should be thicker than yarn. The wider needles and the thread, the larger and an openwork nipple.
- The English gum is completely not suitable for finishing the edges (neck, cuff), as it is strongly stretched.
- The product that is connected by an English elastic band is dried by laying on a horizontal surface. Otherwise, you will get a shapeless thing.
- The English gum pattern is cunning and may emphasize the flaws of the figure thanks to the corrugated structure. Be careful!
- Always knit the sample of those threads that are intended for the product.
- Score an odd number of loops.
- Facial loops only follow the front wall, otherwise the pattern will be spoiled.
- English gum requires a greater consumption of threads than for mating ordinary gum. So buy a couple of spare clubs.
Now every master will replenish his portfolio of knitters by another pattern - English elastic. To better figure out how to work with precipitated loops in this mating, see the video attached below. Like with pleasure!
