Crochet rugs for chairs

Crocheting rugs for chairs.It's no secret that the beauty of a room and its convenience mainly consists of various small details. And one of the ways to transform the interior is to fill it with decorative elements: vases, paintings, figurines, blankets, tablecloths and other things. One of these items is a small rug for a chair. You don’t have to buy it, just pick up a hook and knit it yourself. Even an inexperienced needlewoman who is picking up a tool for the first time can cope with the process. By showing your imagination, you can decorate your home, bringing a touch of warmth and comfort to it.

General advice for beginners

Experienced craftswomen know where to start, but for beginners they need to decide on several preparatory points:

  1. Yarn selection. For work, it is advisable to use threads that have a long service life: cotton or acrylic.Choosing yarn for crocheting chair rugs.
  2. Thickness of fiber and tool. Choose bulky yarn and a larger hook. If you only have thin yarn on hand, then by folding it several times you can get a thread of greater density.
  3. Decide on the model in advance: design, shape (it’s better if it follows the shape of the seat).
  4. Knit a sample of the pattern and carry out wet-heat treatment.Make knitting calculations based on the finished pattern.

IMPORTANT! The comfort of further work and its final result will depend on how thoroughly the preparatory stage is carried out.

Ideas for knitted rugs for chairs

In order to knit an attractive and unusual item, you need to decide on the knitting method. The rug can be made in one piece or assembled from motifs. In the second option, there are two ways to do the job. The first is to knit the required number of parts and assemble them into a single fabric using a needle or use the continuous knitting method. You can also knit this item from leftover yarn and get a multi-colored item that will add bright colors to the appearance of the room.

We offer you several options of different shapes that you can use as a sample. Or come up with your own version based on their example.

Knitting a square rug

Square is one of the most common shapes for rugs. It is good because it perfectly follows the curves of a classic stool. By extending the knitting on the sides, you can form a removable mat in the form of a cover. This will be an ideal solution for decorating the kitchen. We offer two variations of this item made in different techniques.

Seat connected in one piece

This variation looks very impressive when made from contrasting colors.

  • needle and thread.

Sequencing:

  1. Knit a fabric of the required size according to the pattern.
  2. Sew a lining for the rug from fabric and filling.
  3. Sew the lining to the base.
  4. Tie the product with five rows of dc.
  5. Tie four leaves according to the pattern and the cuttings to them.
  6. Sew leaves onto the cuttings at the corners of the product.

Multi-element model

This variation is often called “grandmother’s rug.” This name stuck due to the fact that the end result is similar to the ancient products that our ancestors knitted.

This method is based on making small squares and stitching them into a single piece. For work, you can use leftover threads. This method is great for liquidating leftover yarn from other projects. Squares can be knitted according to the following patterns.

ATTENTION! Elements do not necessarily have to be connected by a single pattern and in the same color. Experiment and get an interesting and unusual result.

How to knit a round seat

Round stools have taken a strong place in the kitchen. And with intensive use, their surface quickly becomes unusable. By covering the seat with a rug, you will extend the life of the stool. Knitting a round cape is the easiest thing to do. But despite this, the result exceeds expectations.

This product will decorate any room. To begin, dial a chain of 4 v. p. and knit a circle of the required diameter according to the pattern.

If you wish, you can knit a border around the edge that will hold the cape on the seat.

Other options for knitting rugs for chairs

Square and circle are not the only suitable shapes for seating. They can be made in the form of a hexagon, flower or other variation.
