If you need to continue tying with a crawfish step, the work should be turned over! The result is a beautiful element of Irish lace. Mk - Irish lace "curl" Lessons on knitting leaves using the Irish lace technique

Irish lace is a knitting technique in which individual elements (flowers, patterns) are made, and then they are combined into a single product. According to legend, this knitting technique came to us from Ireland. Sailors who were at sea and bored at home knitted different patterns from ropes, and then combined them into one weave. The finished product looks very beautiful, but to create it the needlewoman will have to spend a lot of time and effort. Let's look at detailed lessons on how to create Irish lace patterns with descriptions.

Romanian lace. Detailed master class for beginners

Romanian lace is also called lace technique. The basis of the pattern here is a lace, which is knitted in a wide variety of ways. This technique has not gained much popularity, but despite this, the products turn out amazing.

We begin the work of weaving the cord. For this we need a cotton thread with a corresponding hook. We knit according to the pattern.

Method number 1. Ideal for beginner needlewomen

This type of cord is the main one and is called “caterpillar”. In the Romanian lace technique it is used most often. The “caterpillar” will look good not only from cotton yarn, but also from silk, wool and mixed threads.

Method No. 2 is also easy to perform and is suitable for beginner craftswomen

The third way to make a cord for the Romanian lace technique. It is more complex, but very beautiful

Method number 4 is called lace cord

Master class on practical application of Romanian lace techniques

Romanian lace, in its technique, belongs to the coupling lace. It is performed as follows: the outline of the desired pattern is applied to the fabric, and the finished cord is laid out on top of it. Using a sewing needle, the spaces inside the outline are filled.

For work we need:

• thick eye embroidery needles;
• sewing needles;
• durable fabric;
• pencil;
• tied cord;
• threads are thinner than those used for the cord;
• the threads are thicker than those used for the cord.

The simplest pattern in the Romanian lace technique is a leaf. It is perfect for beginners.

Let's take a closer look at the lessons of making one of the motifs using the Romanian lace technique.

We draw a sketch of the pattern on the fabric, and then lay out and baste the cord along the contour.

Sew the cord to make petals

Now fill them in as shown in the picture

The result will be such a beautiful flower

We make the middle according to the following photo

Carefully cut off the basting and detach the flower from the fabric. One of the motives is ready. Using the Romanian lace technique you can create more complex patterns. Motifs can be combined into a single product, for example, a tablecloth, clothing, accessory, or used as an independent work (decor, napkin, curtain cord, etc.).

Master class: Openwork napkin using Romanian lace technique

For work we need:

• thick cotton thread;
• matching hook;
• sewing needle;
• thick fabric;
• piece of polyethylene

First, select a design and then apply it to paper. We place the paper on a fabric folded in half and cover it with polyethylene. Please note that there should be no offsets between layers.

Let's start knitting the cord. We cast on 3 ch, then insert the hook into the second of them, and then into the first. There are 3 finished loops on the hook. We knit the first 2 loops together. There are 2 loops left on the hook. We knit them together, leaving 1 loop on the hook. Turn the product counterclockwise and repeat all the work described above. This way you need to tie a long cord. Place the finished product on the outline of the design and sew tightly. Next, embroider inside the outline, as shown in the pictures. When the work is finished, carefully cut the thread between the layers of fabric and remove the basting. The napkin using the Romanian lace technique is ready.

Master class: Swimsuit crocheted using Irish lace technique

A stylish swimsuit in bright colors, and even knitted by hand, will undoubtedly attract admiring glances from the entire coast. This master class with detailed diagrams will show that such a swimsuit is not difficult to knit even for beginners.

The model is crocheted. The finished product will fit size 42-44.

To knit a swimsuit you need to prepare:

• 100g red cotton yarn;
• 25 g of the same yarn in other colors (pink, yellow, green, light green);
• bobbin threads of matching colors;
• sew-on rhinestones with a diameter of 5-7 mm;
• polymer rings (diameter 2 cm);
• hook No. 1.5;
• sewing needle.

Before we start knitting a swimsuit, you need to make a pattern that matches the size and characteristics of your figure. It should be made from elastic fabric. Then we try it on and, if necessary, make adjustments. On the swimming trunks pattern, we mark places for decoration, and then knit a sample (double crochet) to calculate the number of loops.

We start knitting a swimsuit from the bottom of the swimming trunks, following the contours of the pattern. Next, we move on to decorating the bust and the top of the swimming trunks. You need to crochet different motifs of Irish lace - flowers, leaves, rings, and then tie them with a crawfish step. Execution diagrams are given below.

We lay out the motifs on the pattern, after which we sew the contacting parts together with bobbin threads of the appropriate tone. We trim the swimsuit along the contour with a red caterpillar cord. Next we make the bodice. We lay out the motifs and sew together the touching parts. We decorate the center of the flowers with rhinestones. We tie the rings with 6 single crochets, and then sew them to the upper side corners of the swimming trunks and between the cups of the bodice.

Putting together a swimsuit. We pull the caterpillar cord through the side rings of the swimming trunks and bodice, and tie it into a bow. To form the straps, we tie the rings, connecting them in the process, and then sew them to the corners of the bodice. The swimsuit is ready.

Also, with the help of Irish lace you can decorate a finished swimsuit and thereby make it exclusive

Master class: Knitting “Indian cucumber” or “Turkish bean” motifs

This master class will show you how to crochet oriental paisley motifs, which are also called “Indian paisley” and “Turkish bob”. The pattern is a decorative ornament in the shape of a drop, which came to us along with oriental fabrics from India and Persia. Later, the main place of fabric production was the Scottish city of Paisley, which gave the name to the pattern. Openwork crochet does not bypass such an interesting and fashionable ornament. Its implementation is not difficult, so it is suitable for beginners.

To crochet Indian cucumber (Turkish bob) you need to prepare:

• some yarn;
• hook;
• bourdon threads.

Burdon is threads folded 3-4 times, which are used for tying instead of air loops.

We begin knitting Turkish bob motifs by casting on 6 air loops, which should then be tied with 8 sc. Then we do 4 in. p. rise, from which we knit double crochets, while making 1 stitch between them. p. Connect the chain into a circle with a half-column, then knit 4 sts. p., skipping 1 sbn, and in the next one knit s3n.

Now we attach the bourdon threads and tie them with sc. When the Irish lace pattern reaches an acute angle, cast on 20 in. p., close them into a ring, having first retreated 5 loops from the end of the motif. We continue to tie the Turkish bob sc. We make the last row according to the following pattern: 3 sc, picot from 4 v. p. (insert the hook into the back half-loop).

Master class “Crocheted bag using Irish lace technique”

Consider a tutorial on how to knit a bag decorated with Irish flowers and leaves. Despite the detailed diagrams with descriptions, it will be difficult for beginners to complete the task.

For knitting bags we need:

• 275 g of golden beige yarn, which contains 80% viscose and 20% metallic polyester;
• 25 g each of green and cream colored yarn with the same composition;
• hook No. 1.5;
• approximately 20*45 non-woven fleece;
• transparent and colored sewing threads;
• 1 pack of artificial pearls with a diameter of 3 mm;
• tracing paper

The size of the finished product is approximately 22*28 cm.

Basic pattern. The number of loops in the initial row should be a multiple of 4+2+1 lifting loops. We knit according to pattern 1.

When knitting in width, we start with loops before the repeat, then we constantly repeat the repeat, and end with a loop after the repeat.

From the first to the fourth row we perform 1 time, after which we constantly repeat the third and fourth rows.

Master class on knitting flowers using the Irish lace technique. We take a cream-colored thread, make a ring and work 12 single crochets into it. We continue crocheting according to pattern 2, being sure to follow the direction indicated by the arrows.

From the first to the ninth row we knit 1 time. Please note that in the 4th, 6th, 8th round row, insert the hook only behind the back wall of the corresponding loop.

Lessons on knitting leaves using the Irish lace technique.

Using green yarn, we cast on a chain of 11 air loops + 1 lifting loop and continue knitting according to pattern 3. Pay attention to the direction of the arrows and follow it as you work. In the second and subsequent rows, we make single crochets only by inserting the hook behind the back wall of the corresponding loop.

Let's start doing the work. We start with cutting. From cotton lining fabric we cut out a rectangle measuring 46*31 cm, and from volumenfleece we cut out handles measuring 7*40 cm. The specified parameters include seam allowances of 1 cm.

Let's move on to the handles. We will also make them in golden beige color. We dial 11th century. p. and close the chain into a ring. We knit in a spiral sc, and knit 1 sc into each sc, inserting the hook behind the front wall of the loop of the previous row. Finish the work at a distance of 40 cm from the starting row.

Knit Irish motifs according to the pattern - 4 flowers and 16 leaves. Connect the flowers sequentially along the arrows.

According to scheme 4, assemble flowers and leaves, then starch and decorate with pearls. Unfold the short edges of the bag so that there is a wide strip of fabric between them. Sew an overlapping floral motif onto this strip.

Connect all seams of the lining fabric and finish with a zigzag.

We roll the handles into a strip along the longitudinal side and sew them together by hand. Sew the edges of the handles to the main part.

Thus, a master class on knitting and using Irish lace shows how popular this technique is now. With its help, you can make both simple patterns for beginners and complex work for more experienced craftswomen. You can also decorate children's clothes with Irish lace patterns.

Master class on crocheting decorations for a vest with Irish lace "Curl".

In order to make a curl, first we tie the “caterpillar” cord. In the photos below I show how this cord is knitted.

We carry out the length of the cord to the edge of the curl, look at the selected length on the product.
We knit a chain of 6 chain stitches. In the 3rd loop we knit a single crochet. In 4, 5 and 6 loops there are 5 double crochets.

Then we knit 5 double crochets, 2 half double crochets, 1 single crochet. We insert 1 air loop between the columns. These posts cling to the cord. Pull the loops from the wrong side of the cord, not over the edge.

We turn the knitting and knit single crochets behind the front wall of the lower loops. Depending on how long the curl should be, we knit the number of stitches. The fewer columns, the longer the curl will be.

Using the principle of the first curl, we perform the second curl. We knit again a chain of 6 air loops, on it the columns of the curl itself and proceed to knit the columns on the back wall of the bottom row. It turns out to be a scar across the face from single crochets of the previous row.

At the end, I knitted 3 curls without gaps onto a chain stitch and at the end I made a chain of 4 chain loops into which I knitted 3 single crochets.

We also produce other decoration elements.

leaf

Along the contour I tied it with single crochets. The base is a braid made of air loops, tied with single crochets. To create a bend, we knit several stitches into one loop.

Rostock

The base is the “Caterpillar” cord. Connected at the end in a curl, along the edge of the cord there are arches made of 3 air loops, which are tied with single crochets.

Please attach all details to knitted product and baste with a thread of a contrasting color.
Sew along the edge of the Irish lace using hidden stitches. The cord is sewn on both sides. There is no need to sew it tightly - you won’t tear it off; if you want to change the decoration, it should come off easily. The threads with which it is sewn are tucked from the wrong side of the main knitted product.

It wins the hearts of needlewomen with amazing speed, despite the fact that the process of knitting is not very simple and requires not only time, but also special concentration of attention. Of course, for a beginning knitter, Irish lace looks quite tempting, but let’s not forget that the precision of such lace-making comes only with experience. However, no one is stopping us from gaining this very experience, right?

Since Irish lace is, first of all, the ability to perform and combine a variety of motifs with crochet, any needlewoman should think about having as many of them as possible in her personal collection of motifs.

Beautiful curls and swirls, voluminous, textured and at the same time airy, will significantly expand your technical capabilities. The richer the set of elements that can be combined with each other, the more impressive the finished product is. Swirls will look great in a variety of projects.

In addition, these elements can also be used in jewelry - necklaces, tiaras, bracelets. And also as a decor for knitted products knitted with knitting needles or using a knitting machine. They can also be combined with leather, felt or textiles. The results of such creative searches can be simply stunning. Tempting, isn't it?

You will find detailed diagrams and descriptions of these curls in our selection. Even if you have never tried to knit Irish lace, these motifs may open a new page in needlework for you! Create boldly and with pleasure!

Discussion of the article

Irish lace cords and curls are gaining more and more popularity in the world of new technologies and perfection. All progress moves forward, and it would seem that there is no place for anything from the last century. But no matter how quickly time flies and changes happen, the ancient traditions and art of lace weaving, passed on by entire generations of craftswomen, are still not forgotten.

Lace products, created by wonderful interweaving of all kinds of ornaments, fascinate with their uniqueness and the subtlety of the work process of needlewomen depicting enchanting works. The technology of knitting patterns is varied, there are many ways, but the fruit of inspiration amazes with the originality and lightness of the exceptional pattern. Clothes made in this way are extravagant and divine.

Refined, unsurpassed weaving is done using the Irish lace technique. To recreate extraordinary things using the guipure method, you need to be patient and willing.

Characteristics of Irish lace

Irish knitting is marked by the assembly of a complete product from separately knitted parts, fastened together with a mesh. It is important to feel the creation being created, choose matching shades of fiber, and clearly combine details. If you approach the execution of an exciting event creatively, the outcome will not be long in coming - the master will create a masterpiece. Concentrating on studying the methods of magical craftsmanship, novice sorcerers will weave their initial creation.

Irish lace cords and curls, flowers and petals connected by a mesh look interesting. Curls and laces look advantageous and excellent, emphasizing the created compositional solution.

Track cord

I suggest you look at detailed step-by-step instructions on how to create an unusual caterpillar cord in Irish lace.

Illustration	Briefing
	1. We knit 1 st. etc., placing the tool under the thread of the first knot, we pull the thread out, making a loop.
	2. 2 points have been formed, one of them is removed.
	3. Turn the tape.
	4. From a rotated perspective, we look for two threads.
	5. We draw a loop through the discovered pair, two loops are formed.
	6. One of the two loops is pulled out.
	7. Work is turning.
	8. A loop is pulled through 2 threads.
	9. The procedure is repeated.

Types of fasteners

The blanks that form the compositions are attached using three types of network:

1. Sirloin.
2. "Sotami."
3. Asymmetrical mesh - fills unequal voids.

Joining is a simple knitting option that consists of arranging elements onto a pattern, filling the empty gap with chains. Manipulation is made easier by the fact that a net is immediately formed according to the prepared pattern and the workpiece is attached to it. Most of the openwork works are assembled in an irregular network.

Look what a charming blouse is made from coils and thick ribbon connected by a cute mesh.

Let's try to knit the main element of the jacket - a fantastic curl.

What do you need for knitting?

In the creative process of creating exclusive curls, you will need the following material:

• multi-colored yarn;
• hooks of the appropriate size;
• bobbin fiber;
• scissors;
• scheme;
• sketch;
• pillow;
• tailor's pins;
• organizer

Having thoroughly prepared, we begin to create art.

Curl

Let's take a close look at the schematic representation of our chosen motif.

This completes the curl formation steps.

To make something, we put all the related fragments for the set into an organizer. Spirals and ribbons are diluted with flowers to improve the intended composition.

Having finished knitting the blanks, we carefully wash them, dry them and iron them with an electric iron. We lay out the steamed motifs on a fabric pattern laid on a foam pad. The details are laid out according to the imagination and imagination of the needlewoman. During the process, you can swap the typeset fragments until they are fixed. The next technique is to attach the parts to the sketch with needles and caps. See the photo illustration below.

Having attached the parts well, we fix them with a mesh.

We observe the components laying smoothly on the linen form, which must be perfectly flat so that it is convenient and comfortable to knit your model. A loose mesh is formed using chains and posts of varying heights to connect the links. This is a painstaking and labor-intensive process that results in the creation of light, extraordinary, incomparable, delightful products. The correct selection of components and combinations of colors will add elegance and luxury to the clothes.

I'll tell you how to make an original mesh with your own hands.

Loose mesh

We begin to create from the middle in a spiral, making six air loops, closing them in a ring. Arches are knitted around the formed circle, secured with single crochets. At the end of the tier, the initial and last arc are connected.

Further activities are the same, only the number of loops in the arches increases to seven.

The next point will be spiral knitting - turning the fabric in one direction, then in another. In order for the creation to turn out beautiful, it must be gradually increased. For this purpose, double crochets are used, forming steps along the transition of the turn.

When making a mesh object, picots and knots are added.

Having learned to connect motifs with each other, you will be able to create products of any complexity.

Processing darts in lace

When making products using the Irish lace technique, you have to face the problem of maintaining darts. Without pretending to be an academically correct method, I’ll tell you how I do it.

they roughly coincided with each other. (see 2 leaves on the left)

Then we connect the dart on the reverse side with pins or basting with thread, whichever is more convenient.

Take an unnecessary skein of yarn or a folded rag.

Place it under the pattern at the location of the dart.

This way we get a relief surface that follows the contours of the chest.

It is in this form that we connect the motifs with an irregular grid.

We get invisible darts that follow the contours of the body. Next, you can pull out the embedded skeins of yarn, straighten the underlying fabric again and continue working.

Caterpillar-curl"
In Irish stacked lace, a “caterpillar” lace is often used. Sometimes the “caterpillar” replaces the branch on which the leaves or flower stem are attached. But it can be used as a separate decorative element, for example, in the form of a curl.

First, you need to knit the “caterpillar” lace itself and choose a thread color that matches the original one. If you knit with the same color, the curl will be “lost” and the part will look like a circle with a tail.

Tunic "Celtic Saga"

from Olga Krivenko

a holiday gift for everyone - a new tunic with Celtic patterns.

Yarn - Vista, Tenderness, Tulip, Camellia, linen and regular forty. Hook for motifs - 1.25, mesh - 0.6.

First we tie a very long cord - a “wide caterpillar”. (See the blog for how it fits).
We impose flowers, leaves, traditional motifs on the bourdon. And then we lay it all out in the intended pattern...

Thus we lay out the pattern of the front, back, and sleeves.

Then we sew together the joints of the motifs and fill the space with a mesh.

Then we also connect the side parts and sleeves using stitching and mesh.

We attach the sleeves to the finished part with a mesh.

We knit a lace and insert it into the loops.

And we get this “candy”...

We knit 2 air loops.

The next one will be a double crochet stitch.

Since the motif in this place turned out to be quite close, we immediately knit a double crochet, clinging to the fabric.

chains of different numbers of air loops, then columns with 1-2-3-4
yarn overs.

Having reached the end point, we cut off the working thread and hide the tip in the fabric.

If the distance to the next empty gap is small enough. you can do it differently

lesson-2) continuation

If
distance between empty spaces resulting from stitching
motifs, quite small, for example, 1 leaf or petal
flower, then the working thread can not be cut off, but continue knitting. So
Since the connection occurs from the wrong side, the thread will not be visible
from the face.

So, having reached the end point of the space filled by the grid, having done
last attachment to the canvas, we collect a chain of 3-4 air
loops

We hook the final loop to the fabric with a connecting loop, stretching the resulting chain to the required distance.

We proceed in a similar way at all small spaces between motives.

This way we get a beautiful lace fabric.

If the distance between the empty spaces resulting from stitching the motifs is small enough, for example, 1 leaf or flower petal, then the working thread can not be cut off, but knitting can be continued. Since the connection occurs from the wrong side, the thread will not be visible from the face.
So, having reached the end point of the space filled by the mesh, having made the last attachment to the canvas, we collect a chain of 3-4 air loops.

We hook the final loop to the fabric with a connecting loop, stretching the resulting chain to the required distance.

Next we dial again 3-4 air loops and also connect to the edge of the canvas.

If there is another small gap between the motifs, we again cast on a chain with a sufficient number of loops and hook it to the canvas.

We proceed in a similar way at all small spaces between motives.
