Working with a needle on weaving. Carpet Embroidery and Creative Needlework

Create something new is always interesting to any needlewoman, and if it is also beautiful, it is generally set. One of these classes is carpet embroidery. Although it is not the new kind Creativity, but a certain time she was forgotten, so many not many know about it. Now this type of creativity resumes, the stores appear tools for it, so there is a need to hold a master class and tell you in detail what carpet equipment is especially relevant for beginners.

It is possible to use it almost on any products, and for pillows, and for panels, and for capeties, even for carpets.

We study the basics of carpet equipment for beginner masters

For those who are not familiar with the robes embroidery technique, we will tell a little about her features.

Carpet embroidery is two types: looping and nodes. They differ in the method of performing a pile cover. Looped embroidery is obtained when using a special needle on tight fabric, A novel - when using a special hook on a vinyl or special basis.

The needle for carpet embroidery is a tube with a beveled corner and an eye on the tip. In addition, it has a retainer in the form of a handle that allows you to make a loop of one size, because the result depends on it. More for work it is necessary to have a chamber or a special frame for fastening the tissue.

The hook is distinguished by the fact that it is equipped with a small locking, which allows you to quickly pull the thread and tighten the knot. Therefore, for such a work, the fabric is not suitable, you need a special canva with holes or at least a construction grid.

Due to the specifics of the tools of such work, the carpet technician is complex in execution. But, in fact, with the proper use of the tool, it is not more difficult to embroider than to embroider with a cross.

As a result, fluffy, volumetric and very beautiful products are obtained.

The feature of the carpetners is the need to have special tools and material.

Materials and tools:
  • Carpet hook
  • Kanva - Strym or Construction Mesh
  • Threads of different colors
Work description.

Before starting work, it is necessary to prepare threads, it will not be possible to use them in the ball, they must be cut into equal segments. This, unfortunately, is not very convenient, which is a small disadvantage in comparison with the use of the needle.

To do this, take a dense piece of cardboard, cut off the strip of 2.5 cm wide and wrap the thread on it in a circle. Then cut it on the one hand, it turns out the same segments of a long 5 cm - exactly what we need. Consider that if there is thin threadIt will be necessary to use one knot for two or three threads, otherwise the work will be loose, with the lumens and completely ugly.

Now step by step proceed to embroidery.

You need to start work from the right bottom edge (if you are not left-hand). The figure shows the scheme, how to use the crochet and loop, which is obtained during embroidery.

The segment of the string is folded exactly in half, it depends on how smooth the fluffy surface. We put it on the hook, close it and pull it through the canvas on the front side. It turns out from the front side of the tails of the threads, and from the inside - a dense nodule.

This method of embroidery, unlike embroidery, allows you to observe the front side of the embroidery immediately and evaluate the quality of performance. Thus, it is also easier to create blurred transitions from one shade to another. It turns out a very realistic picture.

Another advantage of the crochet is not needed edging of the edges, just bend the edge so that the holes coincide and insert it through two layers.

When the work is ready, you will need to fasten the thread from the wrong side. To do this, we are divorced with water glue with water in a 2: 1 ratio and a very neat tissue with a solution on an involve. It is important to do it so that the mixture does not flow on the front side and did not spoil the work. Cover the surface with polyethylene and let me dry at least a day. After removing the package, after drying, you can see a very smooth surface. You can glue phlizelin to the final consolidation of the result. Now we can safely use the resulting creation.

Products with carpet embroidery in finished video They look very impressive and, as they say, on the rich, so they can become an excellent gift for housewarming or otherwise. Moreover, it does not depend on what tools they are made: with the help of a hook or needle. So learn, develop, create, and give people joy in the form of various needlework creations.

Video on the topic

Below is a selection of video, with which you can watch the process of embroidery with carpet equipment.

Carpet equipment: basic views

There are two main types of embroidery in the carpet:

  • looped. This is an embroidery of carpet equipment using a special needle for carpetility, when a pattern of a row of looping is created based on the selected scheme. A dense canvas is used as the base for carpet embroidery. This technique is still called "nonwoven tapestry";
  • nodes. Here is a special hook for carpet equipment. The vinyl canvas is used as the base for nodule carpet embroidery. At the interlacing foundations, nodules from short string, hence the name of the equipment.

Now about each type of carpet equipment in more detail.

Carpet equipment: looped embroidery

This technique of embroidery carpet was used by our grandmothers. Huge carpets embroidered in cold winter nights. Then this technique remained a little forgotten, and now it returns to life again.

To work will be necessary:

  • dense fabric;
  • yarn. There is absolutely any yarn, but it all depends on what pictures will be selected. It is advisable to take the yarn the same in thickness and structure;
  • special needle for carpet embroidery;
  • pencil for drawing a picture on the fabric;
  • scissors.

Selection and drawing

Drawings or embroidery schemes in the carpet can be chosen any, which only like. Carpet embroidery will be carried out from the wrong side, so we will apply the pattern of the pattern.

The fabric is not strongly stretched on the chambers, which it is desirable to choose this size so that it is possible to see the entire drawing completely. After the fabric is stretched, you can apply the drawing.

Special Needle - Main Working Tool

Robber equipment by pulling involves the use of a special needle for carpet embroidery. Its tip is cut off at an angle, and inside the needle and handle hole, where it will stretch the thread. From the cut side there will be the front side of the needle, and the direct side on which there is an eyelet for the threads is rear.

For beginners it is better to use an automatic needle where the needle length is adjusted and, accordingly, the loops will be attributed to the same. As a rule, in the kit there are three replaceable needles in order to easily choose under different thickness of the yarn.

During the robes embroidery, the needle holds strictly front or side sideways in the direction of embroidery. But the direction of the embroidery itself does not have absolutely no meaning, the main thing is that the direction of the needle movement was along the stitches.

Where does the carpet embroidery begins

After tightening the fabric to the hoop and drawing the pattern by the selected scheme, proceed to embroidery.

It is very important to keep the needle perpendicular to the fabric. The thread that comes out of the upper hole in the needle handle must go by the hand to not be confused and not to create nodules.

Looking at the video with the master class, you can understand exactly how to make a needle through the fabric.

After that, the needle gently rises above the fabric surface until its tip is on the surface. We retreat from the already finished stitch literally a couple of millimeters and told the needle into the fabric again. It is important to clearly follow the selected scheme and follow the position of the needle (strictly perpendicular to).

After 5-6 stitches, the protruding thread tip from which the work began, it is possible to cut carefully so that it does not interfere. But it is necessary to do it very carefully, otherwise all the embroidery just dismiss.

In the course of work on the side, where the carpet embroidery (the wrong side) will form stitches, and on facial side - Helts, which will create a drawing.

When the thread ended or you need to change the color

The thread ends, and in the needle handle, her end was hidden. In this case, you need to do as follows:

  • we make a few more stitches, after which they pull the thread from the needle, tightly pressing the last stitch with the finger;
  • credit the thread very close to the fabric, but that the stitch does not break off;
  • fix the thread tip with textile glue.

If you need to go to another embroidery section, even going next to, you do not need to make a large stitch. Cut the thread and begin a new site first.

Fill the plots of drawing

It is best to start an embroidery from large elements, then move to small parts and other elements of the carpet coloring threads.

We choose one element, first embroider his contour needle stitch stitch, and then begin to gradually fill the entire area as coloring. To do this, you can use a circular direction of movement, and you can go lines, you can combine the execution of stitches. On the video master class, you can consider the embroidery process in more detail.

When embroidering a needle of straight lines, you need to go through two rows of stitches so that the line turns out to be more even and clear.

As you can see, embroidery such carpet equipment using a special needle, it does not contain absolutely no difficulties. To avoid difficulties during embroidery, take note of some recommendations:

The final stage

That's all, our carpet embroidery is ready, it remains only to bring it in order.

In warm water, add a little shampoo, and suck your work in it. Strong detergents Can negatively affect the threads.

After that, we decide the product on a flat surface and leave until complete drying.

If, during operation, the fabric was born from the hoop during operation, it is necessary to smooth it a little slightly heated iron from the wrong side of the work.

Natural embroidery in carpet equipment - master class

Now there are whole sets for embroidery in the carpet. Such a set is suitable for beginners, and will also be just an excellent gift for those who are interested in needlework. Karotchery sets allow you to make an original mat, tapestry or pillow with your own hands. As a rule, the sets already include:

  • fabric base,
  • sliced \u200b\u200bsegments of yarn required lengths sorted by colors;
  • special hook (but not always);
  • drawing diagram.

It remains only as soon as possible to embroider embroidery.

But, such sets have one drawback - high cost. You can save, if you buy canvas and yarn separately. In this case, you will need to perform a number of preparatory work (cutting and selection of the coloring of the yarn, the choice and drawing to the base). Of course, it will take a certain time, but it is not so difficult to do. What a way to choose, solve exclusively to you, just like the result, will depend only on your fantasy and diligence.

To work, you will need:

  • ready set of embroidery in carpet or canva with a large cell or country;
  • rest of yarn. Even the smallest girls are suitable here. Yarn will need to cut into strips up to 10 cm long, depending on what kind of pile does not want;
  • hook for carpet embroidery. It is fashionable to use the usual hook, but it is not quite comfortable. The hook that is used in the carpet technology has a special shape that simplifies the process of tying a nodule from the thread, after it is extended through the canvas;
  • embroidery scheme. Here it will be possible to use an absolutely any scheme for embroidery with a cross, while the carriage of the carpet can be equal to the canvas cell. Holding the number of cells, it should be noted that on the edges you need to leave a couple of centimeters for processing.

Preparation for embroidering

First of all, choose the picture you like, and you can come up with it and yourself. It is desirable that the scheme does not contain too small elements, because they will be practically not visible.

As the basis for embroidery, you need to take a special grid, which is called stirma. She is for sale both in needlework stores and in building stores. Strium is a dense canva with large cells, which is widely used for the manufacture of tapestries (on the video you consider how it looks).

Basis draw on squares, with 10 cells by 10 cells.

The main tool for embroidery in the carpet technician by a nodule method is a special curved hook, which is also mono to buy in stores with goods for needlework.

The yarn needs to be cut into segments from 3 to 10 cm, depending on which the future rug should be a pile. The yarn can be taken absolutely any. Best option - Acrylic yarn of the middle thickness of the thread.

Operating procedure

Work will be performed by point side Work on which scheme is applied. Before you start, look at the video.

Getting to work:

The result is a wonderful fluffy rug, which is not distinguished from the purchase of Persian carpet. Form and size can be chosen absolutely any.

Other ways of embroidery in carpet equipment

Cross carpet crossing

In addition to these main carpeting techniques, the carpet can simply be embellished, just like the tablecloths, shirts, towels, napkins, tapestries are embroidered.

Important moments:

  • For embroidery in the carpet, special canvas needles are used, which are stupid on the tip and have a large ear;
  • The needle thickness must correspond to the thread thickness;
  • Threads for carpetners can be the most diverse in thickness and characteristics: wool, silk, acrylic, etc;
  • The main rule during the selection of threads: they must go to a smooth layer, filling themselves the background;
  • The thread tension during embroidery should be uniform.

Basic Sews of Carpet Embroidery

Show "Cross"

Soo "Extra Long Cross"

Seam "Semi-Krestik"
Perhaps the most famous seam is considered the "cross." By the way, this seam is the basis for other seams in the carpet.

First of all, in the direction of left to right, you need to perform a uniform series of stitches, as half a cross. The second half of the cross will be performed in the opposite direction in the same way.

Next type of carpet seam - "Extralennaya crossed". Opening a working thread at an angle through one vertical and two horizontal nights of the canvas. The order of work, in this case, the following: The working thread is paired in the direction of the seam right to left, then its specified method is covered with stitches in the direction from left to right, and then there is a second series of stitches, but in reverse side.

When performing a seam "Semi-trial" you need to select a working thread a little thinner thread of the base. The working thread is carried out horizontally left to the right, and then stitches in the opposite direction are laid on top of it.

Oblique tapestry seam (first way)

Oblique tapestry suture (second method method)

Extended oblique tapestry seam
"Spit tapestry seam" can be performed in different ways:

  • spit stitch is done through two Nights of the canvas in width, and one in height, which passes between two other horizontal threads, but without overlapping them;
  • stitches are packed through one vertical and one horizontal nights of the canvas, overlapping the first.

By the way, it is a tapestry seam in various designs is very similar to the old carpet embroidery.

A small advice: when we enchant the tapestry seam on the chambers, the thread needs to be translated on the front side with the invalid. And if you embroider without the use of the hoop, you need to turn the job when each row ends, and remove the needle for the last stitch.

To perform "oblique and elongated tapestry seam", you need to act as well as when embroidering the usual, but vertically take three threads.

It is quite a bit of effort and patience to attach to create a soft and fluffy rug using carpeting. Such an exclusive product will become an excellent gift for loved ones or for many years will delight you. In addition, the carpet equipment of embroidery makes it possible to get rid of the huge number of yarn residues that are certainly stored in the covers of each needlewoman without a case.

Attach the maximum fantasy, and then you will get a unique masterpiece created by your own hands.

Video: Embroidery tapestry stitch

This calculation is made as follows.

Embroide the square with a side of 1 cm x 1 cm, we count the number of proof needle and stitches. We accept the length of the stitch in 2 mm or 0.2 cm (we take this value with some reserve), the length of the thread consumed for the puncture - 2 cm with a length of the resulting pile of 1 cm.

I got the following numbers: 30 punctures per 1 square meter. cm x 2 cm \u003d 60 cm thread.

The number of stitches is always 1 less, in this case They are 29.

29 x 0.2 cm \u003d 5.8 cm

Total for 1 square. CM Embroidery I spend 65.8 cm thread.

Next, you can take a transparent film or traction, which has been drawn into square centimeters, and, imposing it to the picture you need, calculate the area of \u200b\u200bthe items you need, and then make the calculation of the length of the threads, multiplying the resulting square centimeters for the length of the thread spent you per quarter. centimeter.

I will say honestly, never dealt with these calculations, because there is always a stock of consumables. I recommend using this technique when you already master the carpentry technique and you have a stitch length stabilizes.

the cloth len Nabiva 1m x 50 cm for the bottom of the cover

Syntheton 50 cm x 50 cm for the bottom of the cover

Contact Velcro Tape, or Velkro Tape, 66 cm long, with which the cover is attached under the seat stool.

Since this will be a stool case, I decided that the image of the lips there is the place :)

Archive.zip contains 2 schema options - color and in contours without fill, which is convenient to print on a black and white printer for redrawing to the fabric. You can use any drawing you like, just need to be copied or redrawing in contours.

Working hours: I spent on the manufacture of the cover 20 hours. Time beginners will need much more, so if you first picked up the needle, you do not need to focus on this indicator at all.

The manufacture of the cover is divided into several stages.

I. Production of the top of the case (embroidery in the style of Needle Punch, Nidle Punch)

1. Preparation of fabric.

We inspect the edges of the linen canvas. For cutting parts of the upper part, as any other, it is very important that the fabric has smooth edges in order to avoid skewing, uneven cutting and other annoying errors. To align the edge of the fabric, you need to select the filament of the base or duck, for which we will align, carefully separate it from the other threads and remove from the tissue, carefully pulling in the right direction.

Go to the next item.

2. Creating a pattern of the top of the cover.

The pattern is very simple. We measure the centimeter tape length and width of the seating stool. In my case, the sizes of the seat: 31 cm for 31 cm, that is, it is the size of the top of the cover in the finished form.

The edges of the top of the case will be treated with a looped seam of 0.5 cm wide, which forms the semblance of a kayma. We add 1 cm from each edge to its manufacture. Total we get a square with a side of 33 cm. Cutting the fabric: square 33x33, retreat inside the square 1 centimeter from the edges, draw the square 31x31, having obtained the size of the top of the cover in the finished form; We retreat another 0.5 cm inside from the edges, drawing a square with a side of 30 cm. 0.5 cm is just indents to the border. All squares have, of course, the general center.

In the seat of my stool, rounded edges, which are in the drawback are called pairing. But the study of the issue, how to build them correctly, in this case, is devoid of practical meaning, so if your stool also has a rounded edge, I advise you to do the following: take a piece of paper, turn the seat stool down, and bring the rounded angle on paper with a pencil, aligning the side of the sheet With the sides of the seat stool. Then round the angle of the sheet, cutting off the unnecessary part over the drawn line with scissors. Then put this leaf on the fabric and get the resulting rounded angle, alternately His part sides with the sides of the ranks of the ranks. Be careful when moving paper template: Round the angles need to have each of three squares, each time using both the guides of one square, and not adjacent sides of other squares!

3. Apply the embroidery pattern on the fabric.

We choose the drawing (in this case it is a "kiss"), outline by its parallel lines along the most extreme points so that the drawing is inscribed in the rectangle. In this rectangle they are diagonally. The intersection point of these diagonals is the center of the picture.

As a rule, despite the pressure, the drawing is imprinted on fabrics fuzzy, so we supply it with a thin marker. I use the disk marker.

4. Fabric pulling.

To stretch the fabric, I use the frame-machine. You can use a comfortable embroidery machine. The fabric should be stretched evenly, without distortion and sagging. This is a very important point. Working with an incorrectly strained cloth leads to fast hand fatigue and skews of embroidery pattern.

5. Preparation of the carpet needle to work.

Choose the length of the waist of the future embroidery. The length of the pile is determined by dividing the distance from the center of the sprinkle of the needle to the plastic handle in half. I decided that the cover would have a centimeter pile, so by unscrewing the clamping screw, I set the desired distance of 2 cm.

6. Insert the thread in the needle.

For lip embroidery, you need a thread of dark red. We take the nickname. Instead, you can use a fishing line or wire, folded twice and freely passing through the needle tube. I use for this purpose a fishing line. Insert the thread into the thread.

Then we stretch the nickname through the hole opposite the slicer.

Thread is inserted

7. Embroidery process.

Piercing the needle cloth, dropping the needle until it stops. The needle on the trajectory of movement is always kept slam to the left.

Gently take out the needle of the fabric and, retreating 1-2 millimeters, make the next puncture. With inverse movements, the needle is always kept close to the surface of the fabric. A common error in this technique is the high raising needle over the surface of the tissue during inverse movements, as a result of which the length of the pile is obtained different, and sometimes it can lead even to the dissolution of the embroidery.

In the manufacture of carpet embroidery first picture contours are shown. This allows you to strictly distinguish between the areas of certain colors in order to accidentally not pierce the needle area of \u200b\u200bother shades. Circuit circulation is one of the little secrets, thanks to which your embroidery will always look carefully.

Combate the contour of the lips. We remember that the scyed slice needle should always be directed to the left relative to the trajectory of the hand of the hand in the contour of the pattern.

That's what happened on the wrong side.

Then fill in the circuit the stitches of the desired color. The needle alternately move between the boundaries of the contour first upwards, then down. The trajectory of filling the embroidery element is to right left.

Embroide the elements (closed contours) lips.

Another little secret. When embroidering the background it is necessary to make individual and frequent stitch stitchs protruding from the total embroidered block. I call them speakers Strings. When embroidering, I direct them, respectively, up and down. They provide imperceptibility of connecting embroidered background blocks.

These lines have a different purpose: sometimes I use them for a smooth color transition between the shades of the threads according to the drawing.

Gradually fill the background fabric bounded by an inner square.

Performing a 2-half-haired pattern without wisdom allows you to master the initial robes embroidery skills.

Kaima is formed when sheathing the edge of the looped seam. The edge of the product needs to be adjusted twice with 5 mm: the first time the edge is coated half the distance from the external contour of the product to the contour of the next square. The second round the edge begins directly to the border of the carpet embroidery.

How to adjust rounded angles?

Cut the fabric eVERY Angle before the contour of the next square (it is not necessary to cut the fabric to the border of the carpet stitch !!! it will be a mistake!) 5 times: twice where roundings begin, once in the center of the rounding, and then we cut the center of each segment of the fabric, already out of us.

Next, cut a thread of the desired thickness 2 times more required for the embroidery of length. I use a thin thread in 6 additions. We fold the thread in half. Insert the thread in the needle with a wide eye of the edges of the thread, and not bend. We make a puncture with a needle on the border with a carpet embroidery, and introduce the needle into the resulting loop. This receipt of inventing threads in the needle is used to fasten the threads without nodules, so called the challenge method of filling the filament on the fabric.

Purify the tissue with a needle from the wrong side, pull the needle on the front side, we skip it through the formed loop and tighten it. So we are wearing the edge looped seam.

When the thread ends, the end of the thread is fixed again without knotsBy making several stitching stitches to the area, not yet trimmed border. When the entire upper part of the cover is trimmed, the end of the thread will be fixed as pressing stitches, just to stretch it under the loop of Kaima on the involving side.

5.9 Treatment of the Pouring side of the product.

After the border is made, proceed to the processing of the hide side of the cover (on the example of another product).

We take glue PVA and wept it in a plastic glass with water in a 2: 1 ratio (2 parts of the glue by one part of the water) at the rate of the calculation that the finished solution should be 1/ than the total volume of the glass. If the solution you prepared is not enough to handle, make it yet.

Hard and wide brushes for glue process the involnee side of the top of the cover. Under it, it is necessary to put an unnecessary fabric in several additions (rags) and several paper layers (for example, newspapers). The glue solution should not be very liquid, that is, it is impossible to allow it to leak from the front side. The solution is applied to the brush very quickly, immediately smearing over the surface of the wrong side to prevent complete absorption. The processing of the wrong side with the glue solution is a procedure for protecting embroidery from dissolve, moths and any type of ticks that glue is not at all taste)). Such processing increases the durability of the product at times.

After the solution is applied, we cover the irons with a polymer film (you can use an unnecessary packet-shirt, cut along one of the lateral sides, which is cut off the handles and bottom) and put the cargo from above, for example, stacks of books. Make sure that the weight of books is distributed evenly on the area of \u200b\u200bthe product. We leave the product in such a state for 2 days. After removing the cargo after this period, we reveal the product, we remove the newspapers and the fabric, which will be slightly wet, put it on the dry surface in the open form and wait a few hours until the invented side is completely drying. If you are all done correctly, the wrong side should be smooth to the touch, the threads should not be felt.

After drying, we glue the wrong side of the phlizelin to give her aesthetic appearance and have additional protection of threads from dissolve.

II Production of the bottom of the cover

6.1 Creating pattern

The fabric for the bottom of the cover is drawn along the invalid side, after pre-laying the edges of the foldable fabric to the front sides to each other. We draw 2 squares with a shared center: the first with a side of 33 cm, the second - with a side of 31 cm. It turns out if you make indents from an external square inward by 1 cm. It will be allowances for seams. For rounding angle, we use the temporary template. On one side of the pattern, I advise you to leave a plus point on the seams for another 1 cm: through this direction we will overrive the bottom of the cover on the front side and gently fill it. It is better to have breakdowns on the seams with a stock in order to avoid unforeseen problems.

The sequence of the notable parts is as follows: the lowest - synthetic square, then the withdrawal side to it lies one tissue half of the bottom of the cover, then the corresponding parts of the adhesive tape are noted, then the front side of them is the second fabric half of the cover.

6.3 Assembling the bottom of the cover

Start the details of the lower part of the circuit on the contour, three sides. The side where you left an extra centimeter of the seams on the seams, it is not necessary to store - through it the case is turned on the front side. The lowest layer at sewing is a syntheyan square. So that the syntheton does not cling to the protruding parts sewing machine (Football mechanism, etc.), put a paper square under it, greater in size. Stop the details with it. After stitching, paper is easily separated from the case.

As a result, you must become 3 sides of the bottom of the cover, taking three sections of the sticky tape. One segment of the Velkro tape is noticeable to the fourth side, not yet stitched by us.

Remove the steel detail on the front side. Check that the sticky tape is correct. Smeta the unimposed edges of the fourth side, having tired of the cloth on each side inside the centimeter. Stop them together with the remaining segment of the sticky tape, retreating from the edge of 2-3 mm. Find the iron to the resulting item. Sleep it by paving 4-5 lines along one of the sides at about approximately an equal distance from each other. Lay the line along the contour of the part at a distance of 3-4 mm from the edge. As a result, it should be approximately like this:

6.4 Product assembly.

Since the border is red, we take a thin sewing needle and insert the thread of red. Gently sew the top of the cover to the bottom, hiding manual seamsThat is, making them between parts.

You can also enter the other way: to sew the corners of both parts with small segments of the velcro contact tape, with which they will be attached to each other.

The result of our efforts should look like this:

Do you think carpets can only create experienced masters? By no means. Recently, the rope embroidery needle for beginners has gained enormous popularity. Different techniques, creative patterns and handmade Make your carpet unusual. Inexperienced needlewomen can start with embroidery of small paintings or pillowcases for pillows.

Set of beginner needlewoman

If you just decided to master the carpentry technique, you need to start with azov. It is easiest to buy a ready-made set, which includes the following tools and materials:

  • special canvas with drawdrid;
  • multicolored yarn;
  • needle or hook.

You can embroider in the technique of creating a carpet in two ways:

  • needle;
  • crochet.

Needle for carpet embroidery does not look like a familiar needle. Its end has a bevelled point, and the handle resembles a shell holder. As for embroidery with crochet, this technique is more difficult. Some needlewomen embroidery hook are often called the needle in relation to this technique.

Before starting work, you need to study some features, for example, types of stitches and methods of embroidery of paintings. From the front side, they are always obtained by bulk and fluffy. Now that you understand what carpet equipment is, it's time to choose the patterns for rugs.

On the expanses of the global network you will delete many schemes for every taste. These may be children's drawings, refined paintings or geometric shapes. Such schemes resemble the usual sample on the embroidery cross. Experienced needlewomen won't notice differences and easily calculate the number of stitches.

The first pancake is almost always possible, so do not despair. Check in a specialized store special set. It contains tools and materials for work. You will only stay to embroider a small rug.

If you decide to make an exclusive designer product, you need to apply drawings for carpet embroidery. You can use copy paper.

On a note! The robes embroidery needle is made with an inside, so the drawing must be applied to the opposite side of the canvas.

Before you proceed to work, learn the following tips:

  • stitch must be no more than 3-4 mm;
  • from the front side, the embroidery must be volumetric;
  • embroidering with crochet, tighten your loops with hand;
  • newcomers are easier to work with ready-made sets;
  • embroider better from left to right, moving from the bottom edge of the product up;
  • in no case can not pass any canvas cells.

The first stitches in your work

Let's study the main reception of the carpet embroidery - the stitch needle. Everything is very simple. Step by step you will fill your hand, and over time it will seem to you that you have been doing this type of creativity all my life.

  • special needle;
  • fabric for embroidery;
  • multicolored yarn;
  • scheme.

Phased process description:

Tip! At first it is better to embroider the contour of the pattern, and then gradually rows fill the inner part.


Second option: advanced level

Those who want to do a real carpet will suit the embroidery with a special crochet. Skillful craftsmen use torture to knit yarn. But it is best to take a special tool. By appearance It resembles a knitting hook equipped with a tongue. When stretching strands, the tongue snaps up. As a result, the nodule is formed.

On a note! This technique creates volumetric darous products.

Required materials and tools:

  • canvas with drawdrid;
  • multicolored yarn;
  • special hook.

Attention! Unprocessed edges of the canvas can be dissolved when working with a cloth. Pre-process the bottom with a stricken seam or machine line.

Phased process description:


The finished product in the technique of carpet embroidery is a meal and looks like a rug. But it should not assume that this technique is used exclusively for carpet products. With the help of it you can create a variety of unique paintings, capes, pillows.

Method of execution

The first method is a crochet embroidery. The tips are attached to the mesh base. Basically, this technique is used by the needlewomen of North America. Such sewing is different from the initial skill. You can use not only a needle, but also a hook. Short threads are stretched and removed on the front part.
