The History Of Lace Knitting
The origins of lace knitting are unknown, but it is thought to have originated in Italy in the 16th century. The first known lace knitting pattern was published in 1587, and lace knitting quickly became popular throughout Europe. In the 17th century, lace knitting was introduced to the Americas, and it quickly became a popular craft there as well.
Lace knitting reached its peak of popularity in the 18th century. During this time, lace knitting was used to create elaborate and beautiful garments for the wealthy and fashionable. Lace knitting was also used to decorate furniture and other household items.
In the 19th century, lace knitting began to decline in popularity. This was due in part to the invention of machine-made lace, which was much cheaper and easier to produce than hand-knit lace. However, lace knitting never completely disappeared, and it remains a popular craft today.
The Techniques Of Lace Knitting
Lace knitting is a complex and challenging craft, but it is also very rewarding. If you are interested in learning how to knit lace, there are a few basic techniques that you need to master. These techniques include:
* Casting on: Casting on is the first step in knitting any project. When you cast on, you are creating a row of loops on your knitting needles. * Knitting: Knitting is the basic stitch used in lace knitting. To knit a stitch, you insert your right-hand needle into the next loop on your left-hand needle, wrap the yarn around the right-hand needle, and pull the new loop through the old loop. * Purl: Purl is a stitch that is used to create a raised ridge in your knitting. To purl a stitch, you insert your right-hand needle into the next loop on your left-hand needle, wrap the yarn around the right-hand needle, and pull the new loop through the old loop, but this time you keep the old loop on your left-hand needle. * Yarn over: Yarn over is a technique that is used to create a hole in your knitting. To yarn over, you simply wrap the yarn around your right-hand needle before you knit the next stitch. * Slip: Slip is a technique that is used to move a stitch from one needle to another without knitting it. To slip a stitch, you simply insert your right-hand needle into the next loop on your left-hand needle, and then lift the loop off of the left-hand needle and onto the right-hand needle.
Once you have mastered these basic techniques, you can start to learn more complex lace knitting patterns. There are many different types of lace knitting patterns, from simple to complex. If you are a beginner, you may want to start with a simple pattern, such as a garter stitch lace shawl. As you become more experienced, you can try more challenging patterns, such as a lace scarf with intricate cables and eyelets.
