HOW TO CONNECT A FASHIONABLE SNUD SCARF, A COLLAR, A SCARF WITH LARGE BRAIDS AND A HOODED SCARF

Snood or as it is also called a scarf-pipe or a scarf-collar is a scarf that is closed in one ring. It can be of different widths and lengths. Such an accessory again confidently conquers the hearts of modern fashionistas. Although the main function of the scarf is to protect from the cold in winter, the snood is designed to do two things: to give warmth and decorate its owner. In this article, we will discuss how to knit an original snood scarf with knitting needles and crochet, give diagrams and pattern options, describe in detail and show each step of the work.

 

How to knit a scarf-snood with your own hands: knitting methods

There are several ways to tie a snood. Consider the most popular:

• On straight needles. One of the easiest ways. On straight knitting needles, a rectangular fabric is knitted, which is sewn at the edges. Choose the pattern that your soul desires.
• On circular needles. Such a scarf is knitted in a continuous product in a circle and it turns out seamless.
• Crochet. Here you can make a canvas, as on straight knitting needles, or knit a seamless product. The advantage of the crochet hook is that it can create original openwork patterns that cannot be done on knitting needles.
• Hands. One of the novelties of modern "needlework" is knitting by hands. On your hands you can knit an amazingly beautiful scarf-snood. The video shows in detail how to do it.

How beautiful to knit a circular scarf snood with knitting needles?

A snood scarf is one of the models that does not require supernatural knitting skills. It is enough to know how the knitting needles are held, and be able to knit the front and back loops. For the work itself, you will need:

• 150-250 g - thick yarn, it can be woolen or semi-woolen;
• knitting needles (circular) size No. 5–8.

The pattern of the product depends on the thickness of the yarn and knitting needles, the larger they are, the more voluminous the product will be.

Now let's look at options for how you can tie snood quickly and beautifully.

• Knitted seamless scarf-snood with an elastic band. One of the easy options. For knitting, you need to dial 80-100 loops on circular knitting needles (the thinner the yarn, the more loops). Mark the last one with a bright thread in order to know where the beginning / end of the row is. Knit should be in a circle with an elastic band. These can be options: 1X1 or 2X2. After knitting 50–55 cm, finish knitting by closing the loops freely. You need to close from the loop of the row that was marked at the beginning of work.
  
• Knitted snood garter stitch. It can be done on straight needles. Dial 30-50 loops - this will be the width of the scarf. Knit with a solid fabric in garter stitch (facial loops in both the front and back rows). Adjust the length yourself, depending on the desired result. You can close the loops after 80-100 cm. The edges of the resulting canvas are carefully sewn. A knitted scarf in garter stitch turns out to be voluminous and quite spectacular, despite the simplicity of the pattern. If desired, you can use any other version of the pattern.
  
• Openwork scarf-snood with knitting needles. It is knitted on even needles in the same way as described in the garter stitch variant of knitting a snood. Depending on the selected pattern, count the loops so that the pattern repeat enters completely. As for the length - it is arbitrary. For openwork patterns, it is better to choose angora or acrylic yarn.

If you are not yet fluent in the art of knitting, then it is better to choose the simplest model with a simple pattern. It is easiest to knit with a straight fabric, which is then sewn. In order for the product to be voluminous and the work to progress quickly, it is better for beginners to give preference to the thickest yarn and No. 9 knitting needles.

54 loops are cast on the knitting needles and an even fabric is knitted. As for the drawing, we offer beginners the following options:

Knit until you get an even fabric 50-60 cm long. Close all loops. Sew the edges of the fabric. This is done with the same thread with which the entire product is connected. A beautiful do-it-yourself snood scarf is ready.

Consider how to tie a scarf-snood with braids:

1. The rapport of one braid is 15 loops, so you should start from this figure when casting on loops. There can be 30, 45, 60 + 2 or 6 side ones.
2. Then it is knitted according to the following scheme.

4. To avoid the seam being visible, do not cast off the loops of the last row, pull the yarn through them and carefully sew to the other end.
