Crochet men's skullcap (diagram and description)

skullcap 8Interesting the cap model is a skullcap. It is especially valued among the male part of the population. Muslims assigned a big role to such a small thing.

Five models of beautiful and masculine skullcaps at once further awaits the master with a high-quality description of each new product.

Selection of yarn and hook

skullcap thread irisThe item is close to the accessory and therefore should not be made of warm material. She doesn't even cover her ears.It is for this reason that craftsmen are accustomed to creating it from light but durable materials that will not deteriorate after washing and will not wrinkle over time. Thin thread is rarely used as yarn. Cotton, more precisely thin iris is applicable only for the summer model. And in any case it will have to be starched.

Other patterns can simply be made from yarn with numerous additives that do not add heat. This maybe ordinary pekhorka with a high content of acrylic and other useful additives.

The hook should be selected according to the thickness of the main thread for the product. But the craftsman should always like the hook. It should be easy to work with and not rub anywhere. So that the master's hands do what they love and do not stop due to fatigue or inconvenience.

skullcap bottom 1Sample

Knit several rows according to the single crochet pattern to complete a square. Next, calculate how many loops are in 10 cm, and how many rows are in 10 cm. Based on the density found, calculate the number of loops to start with, and how many for the circumference of the thing.
