How to knit openwork socks with knitting needles?

Many women do not want to knit socks, calling this occupation boring and monotonous. Of course, everyone is accustomed to stereotypes: an elastic band for two and a stocking pattern. But today, skilled workers can be pleased with various schemes and methods of knitting these things. Let's take a closer look at how to tie openwork socks with knitting needles.

Preparatory stage

For the product, one hundred grams (410 m) of thread "Drops Fabel" (or Drops Fabel) or other yarn, where the wool will be 75 percent, and the rest is polyamide, will be needed. And take for convenience 6 stocking knitting needles No. 2.5. Knit will be openwork socks with knitting needles for 39-40 size, so calculate the density. In this case, for a ten-centimeter segment, there are 34 rows and 26 loops of the facial surface.

You type 66 loops and knit two circles with a facial pattern (all the rows are knit together). Next is an elastic band for six laps. Unlike warm socks, the lift of the shank is decorated with an openwork pattern, and not an elastic band two by two. In this case, the front face, the foot, the toe and the back part of the product will be tied.

Therefore, on fifteen loops only the elastic band is knitted, and the remaining 51 are patterned with a face pattern. Each facial row is reduced evenly until the knitting is left with 41 loops. It is from this moment begins openwork knitting knitting.

Socks openwork: patterns of gum and azhura

For the socks will be used two drawings: an elastic band 1 x 1 and an openwork pattern. With an elastic band, everything is clear: alternate the front and back loops. The openwork pattern is made according to the following scheme:

1. Two facial (L), two loops tied together face (2 PL), a napkin between two loops (H), H, remove the loop as front, tie 1 L and stretch it through the removed (PL), 3 L, 2 PL, H , Н, ПЛС, 3 Л, 2 ПЛ, Н, Н, ПЛС, 2 L.
2. All hinges are facial.
3. 1 Л, 2 ПЛ, 1 Л, Н, Н, 1 Л, ПЛС, 1 Л, 2 ПЛ, 1 Л, Н, Н, 1 Л, ПЛС, 1 Л, 2 ПЛ, 1 Л, Н, Н, 1 L, PLC, 1 L.
4. All hinges are facial.
5. 2 ПЛ, 2 Л, Н, Н, 2 Л, remove the first loop as front, tie two loops together face and extend it through the removed one (Л 2 ЛС), 2 Л, Н, Н, 2 Л, Л 2 ЛС, 2 A, H, H, 2 A, FL.
6. All hinges are facial.
7. H, PLS, 3 L, 2 PL, H, H, PLS, 3 L, 2 PL, H, H, PLS, 3 L, 2 PL, N.
8. All hinges are facial.
9. 1 Л, Н, ПЛС, 1 Л, 2 ПЛ, 1 Л, Н, Н, ПЛС, 1 Л, 2 ПЛ, 1 Л, Н, Н, ПЛС, 1 Л, 2 ПЛ, 1 Л, Н.
10. All hinges are facial.
11. H, 2 A, A 2 LC, 1 A, H, H, 2 A, A 2 LC, 1 A, H, H, 2 A, A 2 LC, 1 A, H, 1 L.
12. All hinges are facial.

Basic knitting

Socks openwork knit pattern sixteen centimeters. Next, you need to leave fifteen loops for gum and 8 sts on each side of the heel, which consists of a facial pattern. Knitting goes according to the standard pattern: six centimeters of lifting, then the loops are divided into three spokes (the main thing is to have the same number of loops on the side) and only the central ones are knitted, and the cut is due to the side ones.

Next, openwork socks knit with azure and facial smoothness from the heel. If, during fitting, the product reaches the height of the little finger, you begin to subtract the toe, which consists of a facial pattern. Knit up to ten loops, which then tighten the thread. The next sock is created as well.

In principle, for lacework is characterized by two rules: the yarn is taken more thin, the rubber band 1 x 1 alternates. You can take an openwork pattern. To make openwork socks knitted with the knuckles turned out the first time, try to tie three patterns on the test square and see your density clearly. Then your product will be elegant and beautiful!
