Whatever fabric you use as the basis for creating a tablecloth, in any case it will require a beautiful binding. No one can do this better than a hook. The rest of the article shows beautiful diagrams and the result of finished strapping work. And one model is painted in stages. Therefore, even a beginner can make a unique and very beautiful thing out of his item.
What yarn is suitable for tying a tablecloth?
Iris thread and other thin cotton thread are certainly popular for tablecloths and their binding.
But the master does not always make a tablecloth from thin threads.
It is quite possible to make a tablecloth and use thicker threads. Especially if it is a tablecloth made from leftover yarn using some very interesting technique.
Simple types of strapping
As always, you should start small. And so, to begin with, very simple crochet patterns for tying.
Just doesn't mean ugly. Often, an overly overloaded fabric requires a more modest binding and one of the presented patterns is suitable.
Complex openwork patterns
Multi-tiered shells can also be considered complex openwork patterns, although for many craftsmen even a shell is not difficult. But how beautiful they look and even factory-made and very thin lace cannot be compared with them.
A very elegant and unusual tying pattern using a hook with a beautiful corner.
Making a beautiful corner of a tablecloth step by step with diagrams
How to make a binding for a tablecloth if it is not crocheted. Or it is connected using a different pattern and is in no way connected with the border. Next, in several stages you can make a beautiful harness. Learn in detail how to count loops by density and what measurements need to be taken from the item to perform the binding.
To work you will need:
- white iris yarn;
- hook number 0.85.
Measurements
You need to measure the width and length. Record the results. There are options not in the shape of a rectangle, but square ones and for them, accordingly, only one side can be measured.
Sample
Knit a small square using the border pattern and iris thread. You will need to make the following calculations:
- determine how many loops are in a row per 10 cm;
- count how many rows there are in 10 cm.
These numbers represent the knit density and are always used to determine a more accurate size.
Next, transfer all density indicators into loops and you can start knitting. This is necessary in order to more accurately calculate how many loops will need to be made for each side, and so that the item does not end up with flounces or is too tight due to the short hem.
Description
Knit the first row with simple single crochets, the number is equal to the previously determined size. Then along these columns it will be necessary to knit the fabric according to the pattern. Begin a row of a chain of 3 air loops, which are fixed in each single crochet.Next, knit 6 identical rows. Each rapport consists of 5 chain stitches and three double crochets, which have one crown.
Now the tablecloth binding is ready. It looks very unusual, although in reality the pattern is not that complicated and even a beginner can complete it perfectly.
These beautiful bindings can be made using a regular crochet hook. It is not necessary to knit the tablecloth using yarn. The binding can also be used on cotton fabric for items.
With a beautiful binding, any tablecloth becomes better.
Therefore, we begin to choose a prettier pattern for our new work. Someone may already have a thing knitted and have had enough time to make it prettier with the help of a graceful binding.
