Easy-As-Pie Knitting Gift Idea # 2!

Knitting for Christmas and other holidays is so special that you start again, you will not stop! So, here is my second knit stitch gift ideas for you soon!

If you learn to knit, there is absolutely endless patterns to choose from! Knitting something in a hurry, keep it simple. Complicate Oh, I know, sometimes the urge to life, is very strong, but in the case of needles and yarn, you do not embark on such a path.

For this Christmasand ideas, you only need to know the basic knit and purl stitches together, and how to "yarn over" and knit "both." However, the differences in the texture and colors are simply breathtaking. Especially with the yarn, which is now available for us knitters!

That Knitting Gift Idea # 2, I have chosen one of my all-time favorite stitches and a pattern for placemats. I love all kinds of knitted accessories for my kitchen, placemats, of course, colorful tableRunners, tea cozies, potholders, doilies, and all the other little crocheted jewelry is that my kitchen as "mine!"

Giving gifts like these will be sure to put a smile on the faces of your family and friends, because these patterns are so unique and one-of-a-kind. So, enjoy the following pattern for placemats, and remember to mix them, yarn-wise, color-wise, according to the length, and stitch-wise, you will not regret it!

Cotton yarn is best suited for placemats. Buy yds on 120thSum of the yarn you use. Also, use size 10 knitting needles. You can use a gauge for this pattern, but it is not mandatory. If you choose, a pressure gauge, use it to keep: 4 M and 5 rows = 1 inch. The finished size of the placemat should be about 18 "width 13" long.

The directions are as follows: Cast sts to 78. Knit in for 2 lines. Repeat Row 1: K3, K2tog 4 times, * YO, K1, 8-fold, K2tog 8 times * between * 's over the last 11 M, K2tog4 times, K3. Row 2: K3, purl over the past 3 M, K3. Row 3: Knit across. Row 4: K3, purl over the past 3 M, K3.

Repeat these 4 rows for pattern. Knit up placemat is 13 centimeters long, on a purl row. Knit 1 row, then knit 2 rows more. Bind off in the mesh. Weave ends in the back of the placemat.

Remember to keep an eye on your edges, always begin and end your letter with "K3"!

From this pattern, you can in a certain color or fabricThroughout design or color change yarn colors. I recommend changing colors on every 8th Series as soon as you start the pattern. Use two colors, three or four, all shades of a color, or beautiful complimentary colors.

It is up to you, but if you think of knitting for Christmas or other holidays, remember to knit in accordance with the holiday colors and then.

I would save this pattern and use it to knit for other projects. I used to knit this pattern gorgeous Afghans;Knitting long panels with this pattern, and then sewing together the panels. For the Afghans, use a worsted weight yarn, it works best for sewing things like this. Or try a wool yarn.

When you go shopping for yarn, we encounter so many different brand names. If you look closely on each label, they will tell you what kind of yarn is, for example, 100% cotton, or worsted weight, wool, mohair blend one or chenille. And that's just name a few! All informationYou need to be on the label: yardage, type, layers, color, color number, even if it is produced. If you buy a lot of strands of a color, try and purchase the same dye lot. This number is stamped remain generally a "stamp" number, and for consistency, with the same number. For example, if you buy a linen color, and then acquire different dye lots, it will definitely be slight variations in the linen color. You do not think you can see it, but note once in a while, you!

So, until nextWeeks, I will give you my "Easy-as-Pie Knitting Gift Idea # 3 are" -, knitting, painting-a-wastin '!
