The crochet headscarf has become very popular for girls. But this does not mean that there are no models for adults. The article contains several patterns that are also suitable for creating a beautiful adult product. Models can be made not only for hot summer, but also for colder seasons. They will be a lovely addition to a raincoat for spring or autumn. The most beautiful patterns for creating a scarf and a step-by-step guide to making this unusual headdress are below.
Yarn selection
The yarn model depends on the product itself (size and thread). Iris yarn is perfect for a light summer scarf. This is a thin thread from which the craftsman usually makes elegant napkins. Contains pure cotton thread.
A summer scarf for a girl instead of a Panama hat is a creative solution for parents. You can also use thicker cotton. A thread with different inclusions, for example, sequins or different thread thicknesses, looks unusual.
And here warm scarves can be made from wool yarn. It is very important that the yarn does not contain acrylic, as it magnetizes the hair and wearing such a product will not be very pleasant, plus the hairstyle will deteriorate. But a small amount of it cannot interfere, so a small percentage can be included in the composition of the selected fabric.
Hook
Hook for making a scarf must meet only two requirements. First, it must match the thread (selected by number and often the yarn itself already contains in the instructions the numbers of knitting needles and threads that you can deal with). Secondly, it must suit the craftsman (not all craftsmen prefer hooks with thin handles; when making a large product, their hands get tired of holding a thin product, especially if there are complex patterns in front of it).
It is very important that the hook is comfortable to use, for a beginner you can choose one with a flattened center on the handle. This way, a beginner will quickly master the technique of how to knit and hold the tool correctly. And the pictures will help adults create their first masterpieces for themselves and their loved ones.
Crochet headscarf for women
Models of scarves that are suitable for women, and they can be made not only by an experienced craftsman, but also by a novice knitter. A detailed description and high-quality diagrams will not allow you to make mistakes in making a beautiful scarf.
Zigzag crochet scarf for women
A lovely scarf with a zigzag pattern will delight fashionistas with its unusual zigzags. They even look like waves. For more interest, you can dilute boring monochromatic threads with different colors. You can make it in a marine theme and choose several shades of blue. Any combination will decorate this model.
In this work, fluffy threads were used, but they do not interfere with viewing the pattern, and the canvas and all its small details are clearly visible.Beautiful curves are obtained by knitting several double crochets from one loop. And vice versa, when knitting several unfinished stitches into one loop (they have a common point and vertex).
For work use:
- light fluffy yarn;
- hook according to the thickness of the prepared thread.
Measurements
You must first indicate your measurements. The scarf is not knitted huge, as if it were half a scarf. More often, its dimensions are the length that is required only to tie a small knot. But this does not apply to models with huge lace edges. A border can lengthen a product so much, and this will only make it more interesting and attractive. The first dimension is length and is the largest side of the triangle. The second one can be adjusted when knitting the fabric pattern. You can calculate it immediately using the knitting density.
Sample
View the diagram for the handkerchief in detail and practice its implementation. To do this, you can knit a small square according to the specified fabric pattern. This is both training and at the same time a method for accurately counting stitches for a product. Using a small square, determine how many columns there are per 10 cm, and how many rows of the resulting canvas will be in the same 10 cm. Next, record these indicators, and the resulting two knitting density numbers will help you further calculate how many loops will be required to complete the first set and the entire product.
Description
The scarf must be knitted from the top. This is very convenient, and in this way it will be possible to adjust not only the height of the triangle from its longest side, but also the length from the corners of the base of such an isosceles triangle.
Important! Knitting must be done symmetrically, that is, all increases on the right side must correspond to increases on the left side.
Make the addition exactly by one repeat of the main pattern. This way you will get a beautiful wave at the edges of the scarf and you won’t need to do any binding to the finished product.
Complete the required number of rows according to the fabric pattern and finish knitting symmetrically.
If the edges are not so smooth, you can tie the finished work with simple single crochets or simply connecting stitches.
Openwork crochet scarf for women
Very elegant work and the snow-white color suits the scarf very well. But that’s not all; the beautiful pattern around the edge is complemented by an original border. Very airy with several lush columns.
For work use:
- white iris yarn;
- hook according to the thickness of the thread.
Measurements
Measure according to the model how much length is required for the new scarf. The height of the triangle cannot be adjusted independently, as the pattern will shift and it will look ugly. Knitting should be symmetrical.
Sample
Initially, work should begin not with the scarf itself, but with a small square cloth, from which you will need to calculate the knitting density of a given thread and pattern. Take a measuring device and count how many pattern elements you get per 10 cm. Do the same with the number of rows, and also calculate how many will be needed for 10 cm rows of fabric. Next, determine the required set of loops by size. Be sure to take into account the number of repeats so that the pattern is symmetrical.
Description
Knitting this pattern starts from the corner (opposite the longest side). Initially these are 3 air loops. Next, perform three lifting loops on a new row and knit the first row.Knit like this with appropriate increments for each new row. The fabric pattern itself begins only from the 14th row.
It is very convenient to knit this product, since during each row you can estimate the number of loops in the row, and how many more will need to be knitted before finishing the product. It is better to calculate all this in advance and know how much yarn and rows will be required to complete the model.
Border
Upon completion of the product, you will need to knit a border along the edge, the diagram is shown in the model. The whole scheme consists of only 5 rows. The most difficult is the last one, it combines lush columns. But the first 4 have only chain stitches and single crochets. These are all elements that a beginner has already mastered.
This is how you can make a scarf yourself.
Crocheted scarves attract attention with their unique patterns. The owner receives a comfortable and very beautiful thing. Crocheting, especially with a thin thread, is a very painstaking task. But what beautiful things come out with its help. It has already been proven that knitting calms the nerves, and therefore the master receives double benefits from performing painstaking work. To all masters and beginners, great inspiration for new works.
Here are the charming models ready.
