Perfect for beginners, because it does not require special skills in working with knitting needles. In this article, we will consider how to knit the pattern "rice" with knitting needles, using the example of a small canvas. In the future, it will become a decoration for a scarf or waistcoat .

Description of the pattern "Rice" knitting

For work, it is desirable to take larger knitting needles and rather dense yarns so that the pattern can be seen and the work goes faster. Before knitting the "rice" pattern with knitting needles, you need to calculate the desired number of loops for your product and dial the first row. So, let's look at the step-by-step process of tying out "rice":

1. We type the required number of loops in the most common way.
2. Next, remove the first loop, not tying it, as it always does in any pattern.
3. The second is done facial. We thread the spoke into the loop and engage the working thread, then we guide it into the loop. Pull on the other side and remove it on the left knitting needle.
4. Third - purl. Working thread moves forward. Then pass the knitting needle in front of the left knitting needle. Grasp the working thread and tighten it, then remove the loop.
5. It turns out that according to the knitting pattern of the "rice" pattern, the first row consists of alternating front and back loops. This set of loops is usually used for the so-called rubber bands.
6. Next, to get the pattern "rice" knitting need to turn the canvas. Again, take off the first loop.
7. The pattern of knitting with the needles of the pattern "rice" is as follows: you look at the previous set of loops, over the lower facial knitting the back loop, and over the back one - the front one. If the first row starts with the wrong one, then now the first one will be the front one.
8. As a result, you are knitting something like a back rubber band. The second row we also knit alternation of the facial with the purl, but with a shift to one loop.

It is at the expense of this alternation that the pattern is obtained with the "rice" spokes. This pattern is often called "moss" and "pearls" due to a beautiful characteristic pattern. The tighter the knitting and the thicker the yarn, the more pronounced the texture of the canvas.

This pattern always turns out beautiful and at the same time it seems complicated, intricate. But as you can see, the work is the simplest, and even novice craftsmen of knitting can do.
