Balls in an openwork mesh

Interestingly, the knitted balls themselves can be completely different. For example, it can be an openwork mesh worn on ordinary balls. Imagine how old toys will be transformed! All their scratches, chips, scuffs will disappear - the mesh will skillfully mask any flaws. It can be crocheted from snow-white thin threads, which will perfectly emphasize the New Year theme. But you can also use absolutely any colors and types of threads - to match the balls or in a single color scheme. In a word, create! Such products are made very simply and do not require much time - just follow the knitting pattern and you will tie your old balls, breathing new life into them.

Openwork knitted balls

The next option is even more unusual and beautiful balls. They differ from the previous ones in that there is no ball under the mesh. No - emptiness! Such openwork and airy knitted balls will look just great on your Christmas tree. You can make them in different ways. At
one method uses starch, sugar, and gelatin to allow the bound strands to take on the desired shape. But this is a rather troublesome method, so it will be easier to use a small balloon. That is, in fact, this method comes close to the previous version, except that at the end the ball is removed and just a beautiful empty shell remains. Such balls can be decorated with additional elements - for example, flowers suitable color or whatever else you like. Of course, they can be of various shades, they can even include several colors. And here are openwork knitted balls made of thin acrylic or cotton threads white color look just incredible. They can decorate not only the Christmas tree, but also the rest of the room. Christmas mood secured! Such balls are usually made in several stages. First, two halves of the ball are knitted, then they are connected by a row of loops. Then the balloon is used again - it is pushed inside and inflated to straighten the threads well. To make such a knitted ball hard and durable, it can be starched or simply dipped in diluted PVA glue.

Knitted balls

And one more version of hand-made knitted balls for the Christmas tree, which I would like to talk about. They are most similar to ordinary balls, but their main difference is that they are completely knitted! That is, there is no longer an openwork mesh, and not even knitting a shell with holes. Here is a ball tightly knitted from threads of one or more colors. It can be both thin threads and thick ones - the latter will be faster and more convenient. You can combine colors and come up with something new with this option! It is best to place foam rubber inside such a ball. Knitted Christmas decorations– creative, interesting and attractive

Knitted Christmas toys

Since we've already talked about knitted balls stuffed with foam rubber, it is worth remembering knitted Christmas toys that can be made in exactly the same way. Think how much you can knit or crochet! Christmas trees, snow maidens, bells - in new year theme so many things. Crocheted Christmas decorations can be hung not only on a Christmas tree, but also on keys or a bag - it will look fresh and original!

Knitting ideas package #1

New Year's crochet toys

based on the RING.

On the Christmas tree, toys connected from thick trees look very beautiful and bright. woolen threads ON THE BASIS OF THE RING. Like in the photo below. We take a plastic ring and simply tie it with single crochets - that is, we do the same thing that we usually do with a chain loop ring when we knit round shape crochet.

Only with a ring easier for children to work with. Because it can be held in hand, firm and comfortable. And tie without haste. The easiest way to teach children to knit NOT based on a sluggish chain of air loops dangling in the hand- it is much easier to tie a solid and durable ring by slipping the hook under the ring and picking up the thread.

Where can I get a plastic strapping ring?

The ring can be bought at a sewing accessories store (plastic rings for buckles on dress belts), you can use a curtain ring. And it’s even easier and cheaper to get the rings yourself - which remain on the necks plastic bottles when you unscrew the lid. They can be small from bottles with a drink, or larger - on the wide necks of yogurt bottles. It is such a ring that we see in the left photo below.

You can also cut off the edge of a plastic cup with scissors (as in the right photo below).

You can decorate such a craft with bright shiny ribbons, small bells, Christmas tree decorations (now you can find absolutely tiny Christmas balls on sale - they are just right here in size).

You can also on reverse side such a knitted toy to sew a round piece of a picture cut out of a New Year's card.

Of course, an adult can knit such a toy without a ring - as shown in the photo below. But then you need to starch it well so that it keeps the shape of the ring. How to starch and dry crochet I have already told and showed the products in a special article

Where can I get patterns for such a crochet craft for the New Year?

And here is where...
The Internet is full of a variety of patterns for crocheting small napkins or snowflakes - all we need is to take the pattern and remove the MIDDLE from it - just throw it away. And the crochet ring pattern will remain.

The main thing is to make sure that the size of your plastic ring CLOSES the same number of columns that you counted in the first row of your "leaky" scheme.

That is, THE SMALLER THE PLASTIC RING, the smaller the HOLE ON THE SCHEME should be.

Knitted Idea Pack #2

Crochet Christmas decorations

Based on the CIRCLE.

You can crochet New Year's toys WITHOUT A HOLE - in the form of a solid, filled circle. That is, we knit an ordinary flat circle, for example, white. We make it a binding with green threads, alternating double crochets (4 pieces) with single crochets and tiny connecting posts.

I don't give specific plans. It helps to turn on the brain and understand how the world of knitting forms works.

Look here….

Double crochets make the high part of the scallop, single crochets stand at the edges of the scallop center (they create the lower edges of the scallops). And one connecting column is knitted between the scallops - to create an empty space between them. And it turns out scalloped green lace around the edges of our white round.

Multi-colored circular knitting mosaic .

You can knit a round Christmas tree toy, alternating the color of the threads in a circle. The first circular row with white threads, the second row with red threads. Third row with green threads ( see photo below). And the fourth red row has long red rays that stretch towards the middle of the craft. Now I will tell you in detail how to do all this - simply and quickly for the very beginners ...

So ... for the fourth circular row, we take red threads again ... and knit it not quite usual. Look at the photo below - you can see that the fourth red row has RED RAYS crossing the white and green row. For beginners, this may seem confusing. But in reality, it fits very simply.

When we start knitting the fourth red row, we usually start We knit 2 stitches by crocheting the bottom white row. And the next 2 columns we knit by piercing with a crochet bottom RED ROW (the one under white and under green, at the very bottom).

That is we stick the hook much lower (in the basement) - and in order to rise from this bottom, we need to tie a high column (with three crochets). Therefore, before we pierce this bottom red row with a hook, we thread the thread on the hook three times - three turns ... then we pierce the bottom red row at the bottom, and we knit one crochet, the second crochet, the third crochet. And we get the same HIGH COLUMN-BEAM that we like so much on the craft from the photo below.
And it turns out that the fourth red row - looks like an alternation of 2 ordinary columns - and 2 such long columns with three crochets, with piercing the lower rows of knitting.

And for those who don't understand from the explanation above. I give hacky solution to the same problem. Knit the entire craft simply alternating colors in a circle. And then make rays with threads - with simple stitches, as when sewing. We crochet a red thick (in 2-4 additions) thread through the finished craft - embroidering rays, like embroidery.

You yourself can come up with your own options for bright multi-colored knitted toys on the Christmas tree - using the same technique.

Crocheted Christmas tree rounds in the shape of beets .

And the shape of the circle can be slightly modified. Give it a “beetroot” silhouette - thick from the barrels and pointed at the lower tip (as in the photo of crochet Christmas decorations below).

In order for our circle to expand from the barrels like a pot-bellied beetroot, we need to knit columns that are not the same in height in the last circular row - knit columns with two taqidas from the side, and knit columns without a crochet from the bottom and top of the circle.

And a sharp tip occurs if, at the bottom point of the circle, unexpectedly tie 2 high columns (in three yarns).

Christmas craft - crochet candy.

You can tie two rounds - the same in shape. Put them on top of each other with a sandwich and insert a round cap from a yogurt bottle between them. We get a voluminous solid crochet craft. It can be issued in the form of a red and white candy-candy as in the photo below.

Of course, we need the red and white sides of the future candy to be bent (like the edges of the cap). For this to happen, we need to stop adding columns in the last rows - those rows that should wrap up to the side edges of the cover.

Crocheted plump rounds - for the New Year tree.

And we can also cram cotton wool or SINTEPON between two colored rounds and get a plump crochet New Year's toy.

You can take a scheme for such knitted things out of your head - just knit by eye ... in the course of knitting, wondering how many columns to knit in a repeating motif.

Or take any round scheme napkins, where not very large holes in the knit.

But in fact, the scheme of this chubby kruglyash is a scheme similar to PETALS DIVERSING TO THE SIDES. In each petal between the columns there is a hole (air loop). The next petal of the next row is knitted into this hole - and also do not forget to tie a hole in the center in this petal (with an air loop) to make the next petal into it. And each time the number of columns in the hole is knitted a little more ... So there is a natural and uniform addition of columns in each new circular row.

For those who are too lazy to think - I give here such a scheme. It will suit our task.

And between two patterned circles, we can insert a WHOLE CHRISTMAS BALL. And you get a round crochet toy for the New Year.

Knitted Idea Pack #3

Knitted balls for the New Year.

In the technique of circular crochet, you can knit balls - spherical shapes. To do this, do not add too much loops in each circular row, and then we will get not a flat round, but one that will be wrapped in a cup, forming a hemisphere of the ball.

You can knit one-color balls, fill them with padding polyester, or paper shavings. And so decorate. Make embroidery with white threads - without a needle, simply pulling the threads through the rows of knitting with a twist (this is how the snowflake on the ball below is made).

You can decorate them with store-bought lace, beads, and more.

You can decorate the balls with elements of knitted flowers.

You can decorate the balls in the form of Smeshariki from a cartoon, or other characters - for example, an owl, a snowman, a pot-bellied round Santa Claus and other things.

And here's another good idea, crochet bells for the New Year.

If you have learned how to knit balls, then you already know how to knit bells automatically. To get the shape of a bell, we do this.

First, we knit as if a ball, we reach the middle of the ball (that is, half of the ball is already in your hands).

And then we make the last circular row by adding one column, after two knitted ones. And we get an extension along the edge of the bell - its bell.

Knitted Idea Pack #4

Crochet sweets for the New Year.

Here, in passing, I add sweet ideas for crochet Christmas tree decorations. You can crochet gingerbread, cookies and sandmen and hang them all on the Christmas tree. Get a confectionery tree.

You can decorate your knitted New Year's cupcake in a variety of ways, tie the chocolate icing into a flat blot, and then sew it onto the top of the cupcake.

You can knit twisted lace - make whipped cream foam around the edges of the cupcake (as in the right photo). Such a spiral knitted foam-cream is easy to make. First, we knit a simple strip of single crochets, and then in the second row of the strip we make a SHARP INCREASE IN THE NUMBER OF COLUMNS - that is, we knit three columns into each column of the previous row. And our strip begins to gather into a spiral twisted accordion. We get the finished cream.

And here is another confectionery product suitable for decorating a Christmas tree for the New Year - a crochet sandman.

And if you are a crochet master, then you can figure out how these RIBBED cupcakes are connected. In the lower biscuit part we see ribs (I don’t know what pattern this is, can you tell me?). And on the white creamy top of the left cupcake, there are also stripes like on a marshmallow - I also haven’t learned how to knit like that yet ... but I hope that in time I will get the pattern and publish it here.

New Year Ideas Pack #5

FLAT crochet applique.

And you can also knit a variety of flat silhouettes in the form of holiday paraphernalia, or New Year's characters.

It is not necessary to buy a lot of multi-colored balls. Having only three main colors of the New Year available - red, white, green - you can knit a whole series of New Year's flat silhouettes.

Such a flat New Year's applique can not only hang on your Christmas tree, but also decorate the packaging of your gifts - as in the photo below.

We have an article on knitting on our website. Christmas trees- there you will find the most different ways tie a flat silhouette of a Christmas tree - there are diagrams and instructions for this.

Once you start crocheting, you begin to understand how to get the fabric to take the form that you need. How to reduce the columns at the edges of the silhouette, or add them.

If you find it difficult, knit simple rectangles - and decorate them with details, knitting them around the edges on the right sides - like the wings and ears of this owl in the picture below.

Similarly, in a straight line - in the form of an ordinary rectangle, you can crochet a deer craft.

You can decorate your knitted Christmas crafts with buttons, beads, rhinestones, sequins.

Knitted Santa Claus on the Christmas tree is also not a tricky job. You can knit it using the technique of circular knitting (in the right photo below). And whether in the technique of figured silhouette knitting (on the left photo below).

flat knitted forms crochet can be laid in the form of a Christmas wreath.

Knitted Ideas Pack #6

Crochet voluminous toys

To the Christmas tree.

You can crochet plump miniature toys for the Christmas tree. To make them light, you do not need to fill them with heavy cotton wool, fill them with a light padding polyester. The threads themselves are already heavy material, do not make the toy-pendant heavier with filler.

You can crochet plump snowmen, deer, bear cubs, penguins, squirrels, chanterelles, bunnies and other guests of your New Year's holiday.

Knitted bullfinch birds look very nice. Chubby cute with black beady eyes.

I really wish that this New Year you will be able to create a small Christmas tree miracle with your own hands - to the delight of the whole family. Let your older children help you, even if they only knit a few columns in your craft - this will already charge it with the light and magic of the country of childhood.

May bright and pure memories from your childhood come into your life in the New Year. Let us remember the belief in miracles and the expectation of magic - in which you bathed in your childhood.

Reality has not changed. Only you have changed as you have grown up. And there is always magic. You just need to go back ... Catch a wave, as the radio amateurs say. Open the window, stick out your head and say in a whisper into the frosty sky - I want to return to “Where Miracles Happen” ... and then live, smile and be ready for everything good ... And not be surprised at anything - you yourself asked for it))).

This master class with diagrams shows the step-by-step process of making bells. This knitting technique is perfect for beginners.

For knitting, take yarn, hook No. 1.5 and satin ribbons.

We close seven air loops in the ring, then we make another VP of lifting. We knit twelve single crochet stitches. In the next rows, we knit three ch and one double crochet. On the last rows in the diagram, we knit two more chs. We make a bow, and then we tie satin ribbons.

Detailed scheme:

Knitting patterns for other types of bells:

openwork ball

We collect a chain of 12 air loops, knit three ch lifts. We knit until we get 23 double crochets. We knit seven air loops, skip two double crochets, and the third is knitted in the same way as the connecting one. We knit a row in the same way. Then we dial 4 ch, we make a double crochet. Knitting continues in this pattern.

Schemes of other patterns of Christmas balls:

holiday tree

The process of making a small Christmas tree can be traced on the example of a master class, which shows a description of each step of the work.

To work, take a thin green yarn, a suitable hook and beads.

The first step is to knit a chain of three air loops, which we then close into a ring. With single crochets we knit a figure in the form of a cone. Gradually, in every third row, you need to do one increase. The result should be a small figure with a diameter of 6 cm and a height of 12 cm.

Then we make small branches. Knitting pattern: we make a half-column, then we knit 4 double crochets, we knit a half-column - from one loop, after which we make a single crochet and knit up according to this pattern: half-column, 4 dc, half-column, then sc.
