Knit a scarf from ribbon yarn with knitting needles. video "Ribbon scarf"


Good afternoon.
Today I want to show you another fancy yarn scarf.
It is not very warm, but it is a bright decoration for early autumn.

1. For such a scarf, you will need ribbon yarn with a large mesh. You can take Flamenko from Yarn Art or Dantell from Alize.

2. This yarn is more like a ribbon of openwork fabric than a thread. And, at first glance, it is puzzling: how to knit from it?

4. When knitting, the upper edge of the strip is used as a thread. The rest forms frills.

For the first row, simply cast on the required number of stitches. You can type in each cell, or you can through one. In this case, the scarf will be more wavy. My scarf needs 8 loops.

5. We turn the knitting needles, remove the first ashes and start knitting, threading the grid cell ( green arrow) into the loop on the needle (blue arrow). We knit all rows with facial loops.

6. If you knit by threading each cell (as in the photo above), the scarf will be quite smooth. To make the frills more magnificent, you can knit in each even row not in every cell, but through one.

7. Continue knitting until you get a scarf of the desired length. One skein of thread (100 grams) is just enough for a scarf.

8. Secure the end of the thread with a knot. Shake the scarf well, pull the frills into different sides to line up the loops.

9. The scarf is ready.

A fashionable accessory for a spring coat, jacket or raincoat is a bright airy original scarf. Connecting it is not as difficult as it seems at first glance. So, the site "" offers

You will need not quite ordinary ribbon yarn. It looks like an openwork braid with loops around the edge. For example,
Dantela-Alize or Flamenco-YarnArt-310. She looks like this

The scarf takes about 150 gr. You also need very thick knitting needles, number 8 or 10. Before starting knitting, unwind 10 meters of yarn and straighten it carefully to avoid further twisting.

We collect 6-8 loops along the edge of the yarn, it is best to dial through one, skipping the loop. To do this, simply drag the knitting needle through the loops located at the top of the braid. After the loops are cast on, turn the knitting clockwise. We start the knitting needle in the first loop and stretch it through the typed loop of the first row. We lower the loop. We knit in this way to the end of the row. Again, turn the knitting clockwise and knit the third row in the same way as the second.

After the required number of rows is connected, close the loops of the last row as usual.
