Rose Incorporated in Knooking
You can put your rose anywhere on your knooked fabric.
Step 1: Knook to one place before where you want rose.
Step 2: Pull hook through (gives you room to work)
Step 3: Chain 10 on next stitch
Step 4: Crochet Rose
Skip 1st chain, *3dc in next ch,slip stitch in next chain* * * continue to end.
Step 5: Roll rose petals to form rose
Step 6: Put your hook through center and somewhere in middle (stops rose from unrolling)
Yo pull working yarn through everything on your hook. Rose made continue knooking.

Your hybrid projects are amazing. One of my goals in 2012 is to really learn how to knook. I have done a few swatches but then had to get down to some serious crocheting to get my Christmas stuff finished. I just love this whole technique.
ReplyDeleteHey rhonda! I found your blog from ravelry & am excited bc I got a knook hook for Christmas. I've been knitting & crocheting for a few years but want to give knooking a try. I do have a few
ReplyDeletequestions though
1. When I move my stitches to the cording my yarn ends up in the front, I have to turn it to the back (for the knit stitch) is that normal?
2. My stitches almost collapse or shrink of the cording. I have to kind push a little hard to insert the hook so it doesn't feel like smooth movements. Any advice?
3.when you started did you get neck, shoulderblade, & thumb strain/pain? Will it go away?
4. Does it stop feeling so akward?
Thanks!
Hi Tonya.
ReplyDelete1) Honestly I haven't had any of the troubles you are having. Maybe a thicker cording? I use a dress shoelace. If you are a member of Ravelry there is a group for knooking. Others might have suggestions for you there. All I can say is practice, practice, practice. I do hold my fabric just under the stitches with my free hand if that is any help? See pics in blog and the placement of my hands,yarn and fabric.
2) I have not had any pain assoicated with knooking.
3)Knooking never has felt akward to me. I hope things get better for you.
