Moreover, you can

My friends, Happy New Year and good luck to you!

Good afternoon, today we will start crocheting very stylish and such wonderful potholders in the New Year theme. They will delight you with their elegant look in the kitchen. Fill the interior with a trembling anticipation of the upcoming New Year holiday.

I have prepared for you detailed diagrams knitting - using them you can quickly and easily make such New Year's tacks.

Let's start with the simplest one...

Potholder crochet "Snowman looks at the sky"

What you need- a ball of white and blue threads and a little more for the nose. A piece of fabric for sewing on the back side.

What you need to know- 1) knit double crochets 2) you need to be able to alternate threads in knitting different colors. It's simple - I'll tell you right now ...

HOW TO KNIT A NEW YARN IN A DIFFERENT COLOR…

You need to take a new thread - make it one air loop and dress next to the loop (previous knitting) that you now have on the hook. Thus, two loops hang on your handle - the old color and the new color - these two loops are considered mentally as one and continue to knit as if nothing had happened further with a new color - stretching the next column simultaneously through these two multi-colored loops (as if it were one loop)

Now let's get to work...

STEP ONE - KNIT THE CLOTH OF THE POTTON CLOTH WITH A HOOK.

Air row - we knit a chain of 27 air. loops + 2 loops for lifting to the second row

The first row (as in the diagram) - we knit 26 double crochets (the 27th column is the same 2 air loops that we did to climb to the second row)

Third row (as in the diagram) - 2 air loops for climbing a row + 26 double crochets ... etc. according to the scheme.

STEP TWO - MAKE THE NOSE AND EYES on a snowman tack.

I drew a knitting pattern for the nose and eyes below. There is nothing complicated there. The potholder will become completely New Year's, after embroidering snowflakes - this task can be entrusted to your child - he will like to make snowflakes.

STEP TWO - WE DO THE LOOP STRING WITH THE HOOK OF THE POCKETS and sew on the lining.

As we can see, the edges of the potholder are not as beautiful as we would like - therefore, you need to tie the entire New Year's potholder along the edges with single crochets - we make the posts tightly so that the border of the potholder is quite rigid and keeps its shape well. At the corners of the tack (to make the corner neat) we knit 3-4 columns in one corner loop.

We sew fabric on the reverse side of the potholder (you can make a layer of padding polyester or another layer of thick fabric. And that's it - our new New Year's potholder is ready.

And now let's make another tack in the snowman theme

SNOWMAN IN A HAT - in the form of a New Year's potholder.

We'll need yarn of three colors, bigger buttons for the eyes and smaller ones for the mouth. And also a piece of natural white fabric for sheathing reverse side tacks (the fabric must be natural so that it does not melt when it comes into contact with hot pots and pans).

STEP FIRST - WE KNIT THE CLOTH OF THE HOOK POCKETS.

air row(not in the diagram) we collect a chain of 17 loops + 2 air. loops for lifting to the second row.

Second row(according to the diagram) - we knit 17 double crochet stitches (the 18th stitch is replaced by 2 air p. , which we scored for lifting)

Third row- we collect 2 air. n. to climb to the third row - and we knit a double crochet in ONE loop of the previous row - and so on for knitting tacks below.

STEP TWO - WE PROCESS THE EDGES of the knitted canvas of the New Year's potholder.

Our knitted tack cloth has rather clumsy edges on its sides (from the fact that we subtracted and added columns - this always does not look very aesthetically pleasing). We need to smooth out these uneven edges. To do this, we again take the hook and go through the edges of the entire tack with single crochets - changing accordingly colored thread when the color of the edge of the New Year's potholder will change.

STEP THREE - SEW THE FABRIC SIDE from the inside of the tack.

Our crocheted potholder on the wrong side has a bunch of knots, thread interlacing - and we need to hide it all.

We take a fabric (natural, so that it does not melt when in contact with hot pans) - and cut out the same silhouette of a potholder from the fabric. We will need to sew this fabric part to the back of the New Year's tack (pre-process this fabric part 0 by bending the cut of our fabric along the edges - and stitch it)

If we want the potholder to be thicker, we can also make a centipon or other thick material between the fabric and knitted side.

FATHER FROST ON THE NEW YEAR'S POCKET.

We'll need- 3 small balls - red, white, pink (or beige) + 2 black buttons and one red for the nose. It will be much prettier if white threads will be slightly fluffy (but not mohair or angora - woolen tacks burn) such disheveled cotton yarn is on sale - with ponytails and tassels - it will look great on the beard and mustache of our tack Santa Claus.

STEP ONE - KNIT THE CLOTH OF THE NEW YEAR'S POTTON.

Air row (it is not on the diagram) - we collect a chain of 24 air. loops + 2 loops for lifting to the second row.

Second row (according to the scheme) - we knit 24 columns with a crochet (25 columns are the same 2 air points with which we climbed to the second row).

Third row - we collect 2 air. loops for lifting on a row + we knit 24 double crochets.

Fourth row - the same thing - but here a new knitting color begins ... And you must know how to knit a thread of a new color.(I just talked about this when we knitted the first potholder in this article).

STEP TWO - we crochet a MUSTACHE to Santa Claus on a New Year's potholder.

Now it remains to sew the eyes, nose and mustache to our New Year's potholder so that it looks like Santa Claus. Mustache knits easily(Here small circuit below) -

air row- 6 air. n + 1 air.p for lifting -

Second row - single crochet - double crochet - double crochet - again single crochet - single crochet - and finish with a connecting column.

STEP THREE - we process the edges and the wrong side of the New Year's knitted pot holder

We process the edges of the tack with single crochets - changing the color of the thread as we move along the colored zones. At the corners of the tack, we knit THREE single crochets in ONE corner loop (to get a neat corner).

At the top of Santa Claus's hat - we make a loop(6 air loops and we knit as many single crochets in them - to get a neat “bagel-loop”).

Cover the reverse side of the tack with a cloth.(if desired, you can make a layer of synthetic winterizer or fleece inside.

Good luck with your crochet work.

To complement the decoration of the kitchen for the new year 2018 with a stylish potholder with a hand-made souvenir in the form of a symbolic monkey, a snowman, a Christmas tree, Santa Claus is a great idea! The potholder can be sewn, as well as crocheted or knitted. For strength Christmas potholders can be duplicated with synthetic winterizer and make a lining.

The master class offers to sew with your own hands by 2018 the tack "Santa Claus" in patchwork technique. Experienced needlewomen can sew or knit a useful souvenir in half an hour.

For the tack "Santa Claus" from the patches you need to prepare:

• Scraps of fabric for the base - 2 pcs. (normal and beautiful);
• Cloth for face and cap (pink, red or of blue color);
• Scraps of white fabric for a hat and a beard with a mustache and eyebrows (fur is also suitable);
• Accessories for the nose and eyes (can be buttons or fabric);
• Insulation (synthetic winterizer, batting, knitwear);
• Sewing accessories.

Master class - description:

1. Determine the size of the "Santa Claus" potholder at your discretion - it is convenient to hold a square of 20 x 20 cm in your hands. All other details are sewn to this base square
2. We are preparing the base. We cut out 2 triangles, each the size of half a square, cut diagonally: one half should be red or blue - for a hat, the other - pink or beige - to match the complexion. Modern Santa Claus chooses any shades of color - from blue to silver.
3. To finish the hat, you need to cut a white strip of fabric or fur 4 cm wide, its length corresponds to the diagonal of the square. Sew the cap frill between the two triangles.
4. We make out the face. The most interesting part of the work remains - we draw Santa Claus a cheerful, mischievous face. From fluffy fabric or fur, we cut out eyebrows, mustaches and beards. Sew round buttons in place of the eyes and nose. You can sew a fur pom-pom and decorate the tip of the hat.

Since the master class presents the Santa Claus souvenir as a tack, it must be made dense. To do this, you need to prepare a heater from batting or knitwear and close the layer with a lining. We fasten all 3 layers with pins and sheathe with braid or oblique trim. To be able to hang the potholder, at the tip of the hat you need to make a loop from the edging fabric.

In addition to patchwork, original New Year's potholders in the form of a “hero of the occasion” can be crocheted.

2. We knit 7 rows without additions, then in even rows (from the 8th to the 24th) add 1 loop to the right and left - a total of 4 loops per circle. The diagram shows half of the body of 27 loops.
3. From the 25th round, we knit the arms and torso in separate circles. We form the neck by decreasing in the 25th, 27th, 29th and 30th rows, 2 loops on both sides.
4. In the 32nd and 33rd row we add 4 loops each. We knit 7 circles without changes, and from the 41st we decrease again, 4 loops each. We knit the front and back halves of the head together with 8 single crochets.
5. After 4 loops, you need to make a loop for hanging the potholder: connect a chain of 10 air loops with a ring on the front side with a half-column without a crochet into the 1st air loop. We tie the contour with columns without a crochet.
6. Knitting fingers. For each hand, knit up 10 circles of 18 loops. Decrease: 2 rounds – * 1 single crochet, 2 sts together with single crochet *. We repeat the rappoport, to the last 8 loops. We raise them as garter stitch, with a needle with a large eye, we draw the thread through all the loops, tighten the hole and sew it up. We knit the second finger-hand in the same way.
