Very often, when creating clothes by knitting, a pattern such as a diamond is used. It is suitable for creating men's, women's and children's clothing. You can find a diamond pattern on a cardigan, sweater and other various products. An openwork rhombus will look especially impressive. The canvas has a back and front side, and the creation of rhombuses occurs in a circle.
What will you need?
To create an openwork diamond, you need to prepare the following materials and tools:
- yarn – 100 g;
- knitting needles No. 3.
Knitting pattern
The process of creating a diamond in a circle is as follows:
- Cast on stitches on knitting needles. Their number should be a multiple of 10. Next, add 2 more edge loops to the cast-on loops.
- To begin with, it is better to cast on no more than 30 loops. If you are knitting a pattern for the first time, then this will be enough to practice a little.
- You need to start creating a diamond from the zero row. It is completely done with purl stitches.While working, it is important that the row falls on the wrong side if you plan to knit a diamond immediately after the rib.
- Now you need to knit 1 row: take 2 loops and knit, heading to the left.
- The second and all even rows consist of purl loops.
- Third: 1 knit loop, 4 pairs leaning to the left, 1 pair leaning to the right. Repeat this until the end, knitting the last knit stitch.
- Fifth: 1 pair to the right, 3 pairs to the left, 2 pairs to the right. Completes the row by directing 3 pairs to the left, and 1 pair to the right.
- Seventh: 1 knit stitch, 1 pair in the first direction, 2 pairs in the left, 3 pairs in the right. Completes the row by throwing 2 pairs of stitches to the left, 1 pair to the right and completing the row with 1 knit stitch.
- Ninth: direct 2 pairs to the right, 1 pair to the left, 4 pairs to the right. Finish the row with 1 pair to the left and 2 pairs to the right.
- Eleventh: 1 knit stitch, and then transfer all pairs to the right. Close row 1 with a knit stitch.
- Thirteenth: 2 pairs to the right, 1 pair to the left, 4 pairs to the right, 1 pair to the left. The row ends by transferring 2 pairs of loops to the right.
- Fifteenth: 1 knit stitch, 1 pair to the right, 2 pairs to the left, 3 pairs to the right, 2 pairs to the left. Closes the row with 1 pair on the right side and 1 on the front.
- Seventeenth: 1 pair to the right, 3 pairs to the left, 2 pairs to the right, 3 pairs to the left. The row ends by transferring 1 pair of loops to the right side.
- Nineteenth: 1 knit stitch, 4 pairs to the left, 1 pair to the right, 4 pairs to the left. The row ends with 1 knit stitch.
- Twenty-one: knitting a yard occurs in a similar way to the first.
