WEEK TWO

Week Two is from Row 13 to Row 24

Note:

Please keep in mind all the techniques mentioned in the Week 1 CAL so that you can perfect your work.

Written instructions

Full pattern has been divided into 12 triangular parts. You will repeat 2 triangular pattern 6 times(unless specified otherwise) . (the unshaded parts are two triangles which you have to repeat 6 times)

Row 13 * 1D, 4C, inc C, 11C, inc C, 6C* (Repeat * to * 6 times) [156]

Row 14 * 5C, inc C, 7C, 1E, 4C, inc C, 7C* (Repeat * to * 6 times) [168] Add colour F and cut yarn D

Row 15 * 6C, inc C, 6C, 3E, 4C, inc C, 7C* (Repeat * to * 6 times) [180] Add colour G

Row 16 * 6C, inc C, 6C, 5E, 3C, inc C, 8C* (Repeat * to * 6 times) [192] Add colour H

Row 17 * 7C, inc C, 7C, 3E, 5C, inc C, 8C* (Repeat * to * 6 times) [204]

Row 18 * 7C, inc C, 9C, 1E, 6C, inc C, 9C* (Repeat * to * 6 times) [216]

Row 19 * 8C, inc C, 17C, inc C, 9C* (Repeat * to * 6 times) [228] Pick yarn F

Row 20 * 1F, 7C, inc C, 1C, 1G, 16C, HC (inc with yarn H and C ), 10C* (Repeat * to * 6 times) [240]

Row 23 * 10B, inc B, 11B* (Repeat * to * 12 times) [288] pick up yarn A

Row 24 * 10A, inc A, 12A* (Repeat * to * 12 times) [300] cut the yarn.

Fold the round base into half exactly and put stitch markers on both ends. I made a fold along the line where you begin your rows and shifting of colours can be noticeable. If you do this, rest of your pattern will look neat.

Row 25 Leave two sc after the marker and make 1A into each. Skip 2sc before you reach the next marker. Cut the yarn. Continue on the other side the same thing and cut the yarn.

Stitching two pieces:

Have a look at Marion Verloopโ€™s tutorial on how to join the two pieces:

By using this method just make 25 slip stitches both corners and leave the middle for stitching the zip.

Add Zip:

Stitch your zip on the extra row which you made.

Add Crab Stitch

Marion has shown very clearly how to add the crab stitch. On the last row i.e Row 25 you made sc on the back loop, so you will make crab stitch on the front loop all around.

Add Tassel:

Its upto you how you want to make your tassel but if you want to make a tassel like Marionโ€™s then here is the link:

And thatโ€™s it!!!! Your bag is complete.

Basic Mochila techniques


Yarn Over and Yarn Under


Adding a new Yarn


Note: Incase any of you donโ€™t understand or want a detailed video of my pattern, please write to us or comment on our Instagram or Facebook page.

Techniques

After you have checked out all the Youtube tutorials by Marion Verloop, please remember the following points before you start the CAL

  • Single Crochet is always worked on the back loop. If you accidentally work the full single crochet you will see the difference it looks very different
  • Always mark the first stitch of the new row with stitch marker
  • In mochila, you will never slip stitch before moving onto the next round. Just remove the stitch marker and carry on to the next row.
  • When you change your yarn colour, pull up the new colour yarn in the second pull through.
  • Stitches have to tight so that other colour yarns are not visible.
  • Please read the graph from right to left

Measurement

Size of the round base is 26cm

When you fold it, you will get a height of 12cm

Winter KAL – Week 4 – Brioche Headband

Week 4 of the Winter KAL 2020 involves brioche knitting.

Brioche knitting is a family of knitting patterns involving tucked stitches, i.e., yarn overs that are knitted together with a slipped stitch from the previous row. Such stitches may also be made by knitting into the row below and dropping the stitch above.

This type of knitting leads to a thick and ribbed pattern which is perfect for shawls and sweaters and anything warm.

The headband has a very elegant and chic twist in the middle (a clever way to hide the seam!).

You can easily match your headband to your outfit.

Knit headband

The pattern is worked back and forth and is very easy to memorize, which makes it a quick project. You can also find a video tutorial of this headband at the end of the written instructions.

I hope you will enjoy knitting this headband with a twist!

To knit the headband you will need:

DK or worsted weight yarn, 4 or 5 mm knitting needles, tapestry needle

Pattern:

Cast on about 20 stitches (customisable) using long tail cast on

Row 1 (foundation row): Yarn over, slip 1 stitch purlwise, knit 2 together, repeat from * to * until the end of the row.

Row 2: Yarn over, slip 1 stitch purlwise, knit yarn over and the slipped stitch together, repeat from * to * until the end of the row.

Work row 2 for 20 inches or desired length.

Bind off loosely.

See the video for the twist

Fold into half, sandwich together and sew in all the four edges. Invert it to reveal twist.

Happy knitting!!

Winter KAL – Week 3 – Cable headband

It’s week 3 of the Winter KAL 2020 and we have our next knitting technique which is Cable knitting.

Cable knitting is a style of knitting in which textures of crossing layers are achieved by permuting stitches.

This headband has a simple 8 row repeat which is perfect to understand how a cable pattern is developed.

For this particular project you need DK or worsted weight yarn, 4 or 5 mm knitting needles, a cable needle or any substitute (thin rod, pencil, toothpick or any needle sized object).

Key:

C6F – Knit 3 stitches on to a cable needle and hold at front of work, Knit 3 then Knit 3 from cable needle
C6B – Knit 3 stitches onto cable neddle and hold at back of work, knit 3 then knit 3 from cable needle

Pattern:

Cast on 15 stitches
Row 1 : Knit
Row 2,4,6,8 : K3, P9, K3
Row 3 : K3, C6F, K3, K3
Row 5 : Knit
Row 7 : K3, K3, C6B, K3

Continue this pattern till piece is about 18 inches long.

You can check out the YouTube tutorial to learn how the cable stitches are made.

Happy knitting!

Tunisian Linked Stitches – A quick Guide

Now that we have seen what tunisian crochet is and how to work it, lets go a step further!!

As you all know, we are running the PAX Shawl as TCAL over at the IndiaYarnCircle for this month, and we thought it would be a great help to break down certian stitches and techniques, and ease your understanding of Tunisian Crochet.

Still clueless about what we are talking??

Check out all about what is cal HERE.

Know all about the PAX Shawl cal and register for it HERE.

Pin it now! Read it Later!

The Pax Shawl

The Pax shawl is beautiful simple tunisian crochet pattern that uses a combination of regualr crochet and tunisian crochet techniques.

Source: @aiohobeni

One of the stitches used in the shawl is the Tunisian Linked stitch or the Uple stitch.

The linked stiches can be worked in any numbers as required. These are very simple stitches that are a perfect combination of regular crochet and tunisian crochet.

The linked stitch is basically a vertical stitch worked up to the length n number required and worked down again to link it to the foundation row.

You can build the linked sttiches to make them 1-uple, 2-uple, 3-uple, 4-uple, 5-uple and so on. These numbers are basically the no. of horizontal bars in the one stitch.

1-uple stitch with one horizontal bar
3-uple stitch with 3 horizontal bars
2-uple stitch with two horizontal bars
4-uple stitch with 4 horizontal bars

The working of the linked stitches is a little different, since we pull up loops in the horizontal bars and work verticaly to build the height of the stitches. Hence it better to turn work 90 degrees to make it easier.

Image showing the vertical length of the 5-uple stitch
Image with work turned 90 degree for working the horizontal bars

You can find a detailed video tutorial explaining the linked stitches below:

Hope this tutorial is helpful for understanding the tunisian linked stitches!!
