Narrow crocheted belt: diagram and description

The photograph below shows the sequence of manufacturing the simplest belt. The material will need a little, about 10 grams. The thread should be fairly thick, at least 200 m / 100 grams.

Even with minimal knitting skills, you can make such a belt crochet. The layout and description of the product are extremely simple:

1. Link a chain of four air loops (VP).
2. In the second loop, tie 5 posts without a crochet (STBN).
3. In the last loop perform 1 stbN.
4. Turn the canvas and tie one lift loop.
5. In the second STN, tie 5 STBN, then in the 3rd STBN perform another STN.
6. Turn the work and repeat the sequence described in the 4th and 5th points.

The cord of the required length is supplied with strings - and that's it, the product is ready! In fact, this is the most primitive and elementary ribbon lace. All other patterns are designed in the same way, but contain a much larger number of rows.

Stitches can be just threads, chains of air loops or even decorative ribbons. For their weighting on the ends recommend to sew beads.

Openwork belt from the motives of the crochet: diagrams and description

This model has always been popular for a very long time. For its production, several identical or different fragments are knit, which are then joined into a tape.

For sure, every knitter has a favorite round or square piece that she can perform literally with her eyes closed, it is quite suitable for such a product as a crocheted belt. A diagram and a description of one of the motives are set forth below.

To begin with, you need to bind a chain of 6 VIs and close it in a ring, then perform the following actions:

1. 4 VP, a magnificent column of 3 columns with a crochet (STN), 5 VP, * a lush column of 4 STN, 5 VP *. Repeat from * to * until the end of the row.
2. * 5 VP, 3 GP with common vertex, peak of 3 VP, 3 GP with common vertex, 5 VP, STBN *. Repeat from * to * until the end of the row.

The resulting flower has six peaks, it is very convenient for making an equal belt (two peaks on each side are connected with a second flower, two remain on top and bottom). Such belts are needed to emphasize the waist.

A good example of a simple flower. Being bound from a very thick yarn, it will become an excellent decoration for many dresses.

If the product is planned to be worn on the hips, it is advisable to select the pentagonal motifs. They need to be combined so that the belt is semi-circular.

Tight belt for jeans

The next version of knitted belts is designed to perform a practical function: they are tucked into the loops of trousers and skirts.

Of course, the canvas of such products must be very rigid, otherwise it will stretch and there will be no sense in it. As already mentioned above, cotton, linen, polyamide and wool are optimal.

The thickness of the thread is not less than 180-200 m / 100 g, the mating is very tight. To achieve sufficient density, you can use a smaller hook than the one recommended for the selected yarn (for example, not No. 4,5, but No. 3).

Secrets of tight knitting

The pattern can be simple columns without a crochet or the most basic ornaments. If the selected thread is not rigid enough, you can apply the following method:

1. Blend the row of StBN.
2. Turn the canvas and perform another row, tying the newly formed STN. That is, each of them will be double.
3. Repeat the algorithm in paragraphs 1 and 2.

This method is also good for the manufacture of cap visors, fields of hats and collars-racks.
