DIY cutlery case

Every year, needlewomen rush to find interesting and unusual ways to decorate the festive table. Try to decorate the New Year's table and knit Santa Claus for forks and knives. The size of the cutlery cover is 5.5 x 8 cm. Sleeve length - 3 cm.

Advice: measure the length of your forks and knives before starting work. The fact is that the length of the devices can have a difference of up to 3 cm, and then such a cover will be small. To change the size of Santa Claus, simply cast on more loops and knit the fur coat a little longer. Do not count the loops and the number of columns, but knit, measuring the product with a centimeter. Do additions and additions in the same way as in this master class.

What is required?

For New Year's crafts - Santa Claus covers you will need:

• White threads;
• Red threads;
• Hook;
• Scissors.

Stages of work

1. Cast on 18 stitches.

1. We start knitting with white yarn, simple single crochet (sbn).

1. At the end we knit 2 columns in one loop and continue knitting. At the opposite end, we again knit 2 columns in the last loop.

1. Similarly, we knit the second row. In the corners, we again increase the number of loops.

1. It remains to knit one more row of white color without additions and you need to break the thread.

1. Then we begin to knit with columns with one crochet (ssn), knit with a red thread.

1. We knit a Santa Claus fur coat of the required length as follows: a chain of two air loops for lifting, ssn and finish the row with a half-column.

1. Before proceeding to the formation of the fur collar, we reduce the girth of the fur coat. To do this, from each side we will knit three double crochet, not in each loop, but through one loop. So, we start the row by skipping the loop, remove the other two at the end of the row. (To add up to 3 equal subtractions). We knit the front half of Santa Claus. We knit 3 columns on the side, passing one loop at a time. We knit a row and it is unforgettable at the end to knit two columns through the loop.

1. We knit a fur collar of Santa Claus with a white thread. We knit single crochet stitches.

1. Two rows of white are enough. Cut and hide the thread.

1. We knit the sleeves of the fur coat. We collect 4 loops from the side of the craft.

1. We knit in single crochet. Please note that the sleeves are not knitted in a circle, but back and forth. That is, the sleeve of a fur coat is not bulky, but flat.

1. It remains to knit the second sleeve of Santa Claus in the same way. We hide the protruding threads and iron the sleeves so that they do not twist. Well, then we count the number of guests and knit the remaining Santa Claus. Of course, ideally, you should have a dozen of these cases, although you can limit yourself to six.

Result

Santa Claus is ready for the festive table. It remains to start setting the festive table. Here is an option with children's devices and ordinary adults.
