If you are new to knitting, it can be quite confusing to finish off your first scarf! Here are some simple techniques that will help you do that. First, you will need to extract the stitches, then stitch the ends of the excess wool to hide the scarf to make it more neat and neat. Finally, you can add fringes to the towels for decoration.

Steps

Method 1 of 3: Extract towels

1. 

   Finishing the final knit. You will need to knit all of the last rows before you start the stitching. Then, reverse the towel to knit a new row. Handle the needle with the stitches in the left hand and the needle not in the right hand.

2. 

   
   
   Knit the first two stitches. Make sure to knit the first two stitches of the new row as usual, note two stitches.

3. 

   Insert the first nose through the second. You will use the left-hand knitting needle to lift the first stitch on the right needle and insert it through the second needle, then slide this tip out of the right needle.

4. 

   
   
   Knitting one more stitch. You only need to add a new stitch.

5. 

   Continue to lift the first nose inserted through the second nose. You will use the left-hand needle to lift the first nose on the right needle and insert it through the second needle, then slide the first nose out of the right needle.

6. 

   
   
   Repeat the steps for extracting the towel to the end of the row. You will continue to repeat the process of knitting a new stitch, lifting the previous stitch and inserting this new stitch until the end of the row. The edge of the towel once extracted will grow longer as you continue to extract the nose.
   • You can extract a towel with a larger knitting needle so that the tips are not too tight. Too tight squeezing may cause the tip of the towel to shrink.

7. 

   End of the last nose. When knitting to the last point, you will have only one loop on the needle, cut the wool and leave a few tens of centimeters. Then, pull the wool thread through the circle, stitch the wool into a few stitches in the towel body and cut the wool.
   • Make sure to leave a piece of wool about 20 cm or more long so that it can be stitched into the towel.

Method 2 of 3: Sew the ends of the wool yarns hidden

1. 

   Thread the excess wool onto the wool needle. After the towel is extracted, you will need to sew the ends of the wool fibers to seal. Thread the yarn that needs to be hidden into the knitting needle, hold the yarn end with two thumbs and pointers so that the yarn does not slip while stitching.

2. 

   Thread wool stitches into side stitches. Identify a stitch close to which stitches the wool thread in and passes the needle through. Then, insert the needle back into the next nose.
   • Continue stitching the stitches up and down along the edge of the scarf until the yarn is so short that it cannot be sewn anymore.

3. 

   Tie and cut the yarn. When you cannot stitch any more, pull the wool thread out of the needle, tie the end of the wool yarn to the last stitch and cut the excess yarn about 1 cm from the stitch.

Method 3 of 3: Add tassel

1. 

   Choose wool to make fringes. Adding decorative fringes will make the scarf more beautiful. You can add fringes of the same color as the scarf or use a different color wool. Note choosing wool to make tassel has a substance similar to wool used for knitting.
   • For example, if you use medium-sized wool to knit a scarf, use the same type of wool to make fringes.

2. 

   Cut a piece of cardboard the same size as a tassel. Wrapping the wool around this cover will help the fringes be of equal length. Cut the piece of the card about 1.5 cm wider than the length of the tassel.
   • For example, if you want tassel about 10 cm long, cut out a piece of cardboard that is 11 cm wide.
   • Make sure the piece is long enough to cover a fair amount of yarn. The board should be at least 25 cm long.

3. 

   Wrap the wool around the cover. You will take the ends of the wool and start wrapping it around the piece of paper as you would around the roll. Roll continuously until the wool fibers cover from one end of the piece to the other. Do not overlap wool in one place.
   • Be sure to wrap the wool yarn the width of the card, meaning the dimension is about the same as the tassel yarn.

4. 

   Cut along the bottom edge of the piece of cardboard. Use a sharp scissors to thread under the wool at the bottom edge of the card and cut the wool in a straight line. Just cut the bottom edge, don't cut the top edge too!
   • Note that the yarns you just cut will be twice as long as the fringes you plan to make, this is because you will fold them in half when tied on a towel.

5. 

   Divide wool into bundles of 2, 3 or 4 strands. You can divide wool into bundles of 3 to 4 fibers depending on the desired tassel thickness. Keep the bundles separate so that they can be easily removed when tied to a towel.

6. 

   Use a crochet hook to pull the center of the bundle through a stitch on the towel. You will take and fold a wool bundle in half, then insert the hook needle into a knitting stitch on the top of the towel, hook the needle tip to the center of the bundle, and pull ⅓ of the bundle over the stitch.
   • Do not pull the wool completely over the stitch.
   • Use a medium sized crochet needle so that it can easily pass through the stitch on the hem.

7. 

   Pull the end of the bundle through the circle. Hold the bundle on the hook and use the hook end of the needle to hook the end of the bundle on the other side and pull through the circle on the needle.

8. 

   Tug on the end of the bundle to tighten the circle. To secure the tassels, tug the ends of the wool fibers firmly. This will tighten the circle wrapped around the stitches and they will not come off.
   • Repeat the above steps until fringed has been completed on all stitches on the top of the towel.

9. 

   Prune the tassel tail if desired. If the fringes are uneven, you can spread the cloth on a flat surface, straighten the fringes and use scissors to trim it. Be sure to trim just enough so that the fringes are of equal length. advertisement
