Light crochet openwork napkins.
Crocheting is a good old tradition that is still supported by many craftswomen. The popularity and prevalence of such decor greatly simplifies the search for the desired pattern and description for it. However, there is also a downside to the situation: crocheted napkins have become so boring for knitters that they have become a kind of synonym for banality. The situation is saved by the development of fresh schemes and the search for new areas of application of familiar objects.
Types of napkins
Despite the fact that the first association with the word “napkin” invariably becomes an openwork circle, there are square, pentagonal and hexagonal, rectangular, diamond-shaped and many other shapes of napkins.
In modern designs, the large one can be relatively solid or openwork) most often remains round, but squares are also often found. It must be said that decorative elements with right angles are easier to place on flat surfaces.
The basic principle of knitting napkins
Knitting work on almost any napkin begins from the center and, gradually expanding the fabric, ends with the widest row. The only exceptions are products assembled from several separately related motifs.
Both small and large (the circuit can be of any shape) requires the presence of several main components:
Depending on the specifics of the pattern, the main fabric of the product may include some elements. For example, the technique of duplicating stripes of a pattern is often used. They are placed at different distances from the center, interspersed with very openwork or, conversely, solid areas. This distribution of the ornament allows you to effectively expand the canvas while maintaining the overall harmony of the product.
Knitting napkins
This small napkin is knitted as follows:
- 3VP, *2VP, 1СН*, 2VP.
- 3VP, 31СН.
- *3VP, 1СБН*.
- 3VP, 5VP, *2СН with a common top, 5VP*.
- 3VP, *5VP, 1СН*.
- 3VP, *2СН, 5ВП, 2СН, 1ВП*.
- *4СН, 2ВП, 4СН, 1СБН*.
- *15VP, 1СБН*.
- *2Dc with a common top, 3Dc, 2Dc with a common base, 5VP, 2Dc with a common base, 3Dc, 2Dc with a common top*.
- *2Dc with a common top, 6Dc, 5VP, 6Dc, 2Dc with a common top*.
- *2Dc with a common top, 7Dc, 5VP, 7Dc, 2Dc with a common top*.
Dc - double crochet, sc - single crochet, VP - chain stitch.
The description from * to * must be repeated until the end of the row.
How to change napkin sizes
The technique of alternating stripes of patterns described in the previous paragraph can be extremely useful for craftswomen who want to change the size of the napkin. Individual elements can be repeated as many times as necessary or eliminated completely. An excellent example of how to crochet a napkin from several patterns is the product shown in the following photo.
There is a very wide strip connected by mesh. It is obvious that with its help the expansion of the canvas to the planned dimensions was achieved.
Circular crochet napkin patterns also allow you to combine different patterns. The height of skill can be considered the successful combination of several elements and the creation of your own unique napkin.
Large circuit and application
A large decorative element such as the one shown in the photo below has an extremely wide range of uses.
In fact, it's not even a napkin, but a real tablecloth. The size of such products depends significantly on the materials that the craftswoman chooses. The thicker the thread, the larger the napkin, but the pattern also looks rougher. Knitted from dense threads with tight twist, such a large crocheted napkin (the pattern is proposed below) becomes an interesting carpet, umbrella, blanket or bedspread.
If desired, you can complete only part of the circuit. By moving to the final binding immediately after the central part, you can get a napkin of a smaller diameter. The small motif without binding becomes convenient for use in pullovers, tops and bags. quite often placed on the yoke of a knitted dress or on its side.
For convenience, the napkin diagram is divided into two parts.
Central fragment.
And two stripes of patterns with binding.
Description: crochet napkins
Begin work by setting a chain of eight air loops. In the second row, perform 16 single crochets, and then continue knitting in accordance with the pattern.
The central part of the pattern contains the very popular “pineapple” elements. Here they are arranged in several rows and greatly decorate the napkin. “Pineapples” are good for expanding fabrics, which is why they are so often used in napkin patterns. The first section of the diagram ends with several rows of mesh, on which a simple pattern of “bushes” will then be placed. This geometric pattern is formed by systematically filling some grid cells with “bushes” of four double crochets. If you need to remove any element of the circuit, excluding this strip will be the most convenient.
The final part of a large napkin
The main decor of this large napkin is the wide border running along its edge. The peculiarity of the scheme is that several patterns are combined here:
- Simple triangles made of “bushes” against the background of chains of air loops.
- Double crochet zigzag stitch.
- Small "pineapples".
- Empty fillet mesh with cells of different sizes.
All these ornaments are arranged simply masterfully. The beginning of one pattern is performed simultaneously with knitting the previous one. Thus, the developers managed to organically incorporate such seemingly different ornaments.
The patterns of formation of circular patterns and the principles of making decorative fabrics described in this article will be useful to those who are looking for information on how to crochet a napkin. Of course, it’s calmer to follow a detailed plan, but only improvisation can give you the feeling of true free creativity.
The once forgotten art of knitting interior napkins is being revived again today. This is an irreplaceable thing that will not only serve as a stand for cutlery, but also decorate the interior of the house. Even if you have never crocheted, a napkin is the item with which you can start learning this needlework.
How to crochet a napkin for beginners, in detail from scratch
If this is your first crochet napkin, then start with a simple, uncomplicated option. To avoid getting tangled in the lace, tie a napkin from acrylic thread. The hook is selected according to the thickness of the yarn.
- If this is your first napkin, choose wool blend or acrylic threads so that they do not get tangled.
- Focusing on the interior and design where you plan to put the napkin, choose the color of your threads.
- the hook should be the same thickness as the threads, for thin knitting, take a hook that will be thinner than your thread, to get a looser knitting, choose a thicker hook.
Needlewomen who have experience choose the thinnest threads for knitting napkins. In this case, the napkin turns out to be so soft. that looks like a cobweb.
Conventions that appear in the diagrams:
The first thing to start knitting a napkin with is a set of loops - 12. Round napkins start knitting from the center.
We look at the diagram and tie the ring.
We close the circle by connecting the air and the last loop.
Second row - three ch, 4 sts. from 2 n. and into the pillar. previous row.
We repeat
Do not connect the last stitch of the row with the first; by connecting them, you will break the pattern.
The third row is alternating four chain stitches with six stitches plus two yarn overs. The middle four are - the hook should go into the base of the post from the row that is knitted. the last one goes under the chain of a row already knitted, from air loops.
The third row is the same as the second.
The fourth row is an alternation with five chain loops, eight stitches, plus two double crochets.
Fifth row - alternating nine chain stitches with ten stitches plus two double crochets.
Sixth row - alternating eleven chain stitches with four stitches, plus two double crochets, eleven chain stitches, two stitches of the previous row, skip, four stitches plus two double crochets. End of the row - connect the last loop to the first.
Seventh row - five chain stitches, fifteen stitches plus two double stitches. Insert the hook into the stitch. air of the previous series. Next are five air loops, a column under the air loops of the previous row.
The row ends - we knit six chain stitches, connect the first and last.-
Row eight - six chain stitches, then a post. and two nak, pico small of four air loops.
A stitch plus two double crochets in the third stitch of the previous row, then knit as in the diagram. It should turn out, with picot (between the columns), eight columns.
The work is finished, the thread needs to be cut and secured on the wrong side.
Description of crocheting napkins for beginners, a simple napkin step by step
If you are a beginner needlewoman, this napkin option will suit you perfectly. The diameter of such a napkin is fifty centimeters. Take cotton yarn - eighty grams, use a hook with number - 1.75 or 2.
Start by knitting air loops - 8 pieces, then connect the resulting chain with a post (connecting one) into a ring. Replace the first pillar. (with yarn over) for three stitches. air. We knit fifteen stitches in a circle (double crochet), finishing with one connecting stitch in the initial third loop (chain).
Continuation of knitting - look at the diagram. We start each next row in the circle with air loops, according to the number in the diagram, ending with a connecting column. We knit the sixth and eighth rows in a circle, behind the previous row. We squeeze the petals in the fifth and seventh rows out. For the forty-first row - finish each fragment separately, attach the thread, each time, again at the arrow. We knit from the forty-second row to the forty-fifth, in reverse and straight rows.
The diagram is part of the napkin; the row in the circle must be completed according to the drawing. The numbers indicate rows in a circle.

Friends, I bring to your attention a selection of fabulously beautiful crocheted napkins, as well as patterns for them. In my opinion, crocheting napkins is truly the pinnacle of crocheting skills. This is beauty, subtlety of work, and all products are lightweight.
These airy snowflakes made of fabric are a kind of embodiment of flight and lightness. Napkins perfectly complement any interior and make it feel homey. And of course, this is an excellent basis - a motive for knitting large elements, such as a bedspread or, say, a tablecloth. In addition, sitting down and starting to knit a napkin is a great way to relax and get a charge of good mood.

The knitting technique is also perfected by the fact that almost the entire arsenal of all kinds of loops is used in napkins. These include half-columns, chain stitches, double crochets, and many others. This gives you a good skill, and also teaches you to understand circuits.
I also want to draw your attention to the fact that these products also have different shapes. Here we can mention the classic round napkins, which are knitted in the round.
Beautiful openwork crocheted napkin with floral patterns
An awesome crochet napkin - it captivated me with its elegance! The knitting pattern is below.
You can lay such a napkin on the table or put a vase of flowers on it.
When crocheting napkins, the method of using motifs is very often used. Motifs are square, round, triangular. There are also more complex polyhedra, such as hexagonal ones, but they are rarely used.
In addition to all of the above, there is also a wide variety of napkin knitting techniques. For example, Irish lace. Or Bruges lace - a Belgian technique. Creativity in knitting napkins is like art. Only the master creates not with the help of paints and a brush, but with the help of yarn and a hook.
Okay, I'm babbling about something. Next, see a selection of samples of various napkins. They have one thing in common - they are crocheted. All photos are enlarged.

How to starch a crocheted napkin
After reading many guides on starching napkins, I came to the conclusion that they are hopelessly outdated. In all of them it is proposed to cook a paste from starch, but why such difficulties? It is much easier and faster to soak a napkin in wallpaper glue, which consists of starch that does not cause yellowing. It applies quickly and is not visible after drying. Ideal, in my opinion.
Make the solution thinner and dip a napkin into it, give it time to dry, and now you have a beautiful copy in front of you, smooth, without creases or curls. Wallpaper glue easily soaks in water, so don’t be afraid of ruining the product.
Video master class - simple crochet round napkin
To conclude the collection, I would like to show a simple and clear master class from Anna Andrienko on crocheting a simple napkin for beginners. There is nothing complicated in the lesson, just what a beginner needs.
I hope you liked these patterns for crocheting beautiful napkins and will take something for yourself to work with! Well, that’s all I have for today... Happy crafting!
When crocheting napkins for beginners, it is better to start with thicker (but not very thick) yarn so as not to get tangled in the threads. For example, half-wool or acrylic.
We select the hook according to the thickness of the thread. This is done by trial method: if you take a very thin hook, then knitting with thick yarn will be difficult, almost impossible. A crochet hook with a very large number will result in a napkin that is too full of holes.
For knitting a thick napkin for beginners, a hook with number 2 - 2.5 is suitable. But, again, I repeat, do not strictly follow what is written. Try it, choose the option that you think is more convenient.
It is better for beginners to choose the simplest patterns for crocheting a napkin.
Crocheted small napkins can be used as a coaster for glasses and cups. White or multi-colored thick small napkins will look good on the table.
Well, in the future, for knitting openwork napkins, it is better to use thin cotton bobbin threads, such as those used for sewing (No. 0-10). The product will be soft and airy.
In this case, the hook should also be taken with the smallest number 0.5 or 1.
You can also knit napkins from thicker cotton yarn like Iris; a hook size of 1.2-1.5 is suitable.
So, how to crochet a napkin?

Attention to the training video lesson for beginners.
First, you can learn how to knit a small napkin under a vase, for example. How to do this? To begin with, you should familiarize yourself with the implementation of several loops. Knitting is based on an air loop and double and single crochet stitches. Everything else is derivatives of these figures, which, when combined with each other, make up patterns.
Making a napkin under a vase
A napkin with a diameter of about 30 cm, cotton yarn about 50 g and hook No. 1.
As with most napkins, we start knitting with air loops (v.p.), in this case there will be 8 of them, they are closed using a connecting post (conn. st.).

Such work is not particularly difficult if the novice needlewoman has become familiar with the graphic designation of certain loops. You can find simple designs for a variety of napkins here.
And now pay attention to our master class below.
Instructions for knitting rows:
You need to dial 5 ch. and connect them together. Art.
Row 2: cast on 3 v.p. rise and 2 more vp, then in a circle 7 tbsp. s/n, each of which is knitted through 2 vp, carried under the loops of the ring.

You can adjust the diameter of the napkin yourself.
Napkins can be of various shapes - square, round, rectangular, polygonal, oval and so on, it all depends on your wishes. The easiest way to make napkins is to knit identical motifs that are simply connected to each other.
Square napkin
Square napkins are often crocheted from the same motifs; as their number increases, the napkin turns into a tablecloth or blanket. For a square napkin measuring 27 x 27 cm, you need 80 g of yarn and a hook number 1.5.
Scheme
As you can see, the napkin consists of large and small motifs.
Large motif: we knit 10 stitches. p. and close the chain of connections. Art.
1st row: knit 3 sts. lifting point, 23 st. s/n about the circle. We finish using the connection. Art.

Now * 1 tbsp. b/n in the next article. s/n of the previous row, 16th century. p. and 2 tbsp. b/n in 2 tbsp. s/n of the previous row *The combination (* *) is repeated 6 times. That is, 7 arches are formed, 7 arches in total, and the row ends with a connection. Art.
row: knit in accordance with the diagram and cut the thread when finished. You need 9 such motives.

Standard round napkins
If we consider the variety of round napkins, then there is room for your imagination to run wild. They will become not only an exclusive decoration for your home, but also an original gift. For round oval napkins, you can also use simple and complex motifs. And the end result is very beautiful napkins, even for beginners.

Crochet napkin “Bunch of Grapes”. Step-by-step master class
To work you will need 3 colors of acrylic yarn (white, green and blue) and hook number 3.
Crochet napkin: master class
We take a blue thread to knit grapes. We attach the thread to the arch and wind 7-10 elongated loops onto the hook (the number of elongated loops depends on the thickness of the thread), then we pull all the loops through the hook and secure them with a half-column. Then we knit 1-3 air loops (again depending on the thickness of the thread) and move on to a new berry.
We knit the remaining 9 berries in the same way. We cut the thread and fasten it.
And on all fans we knit the first tier of berry clusters.
Let's move on to the leaflet. First we knit 3 single crochet stitches, then 2 chain stitches, and again 3 single crochet stitches.
We knit 3 air loops to move to the bunch.
And we tie the bunch itself with connecting posts. Between the berries we knit 1-3 connecting stitches (depending on the thickness of the thread).
When the row is completely knitted with green thread, we move on to the second tier of berries on each bunch.
When knitting the next row with green thread, for the leaves we add 2 stitches in one loop of the bottom row on each side of the air arches. The green part of the knitting should be wide.
And so we knit until we knit the entire bunch.
We cut all the ends of the threads, tuck them in and tie the entire napkin in a circle with arches of 6 air loops. We insert a hook into each loop of the previous row.
The work is finished.

Work should begin by knitting a chain of air loops. The number of stitches must be even, and one more stitch at the end to complete the row.
It is necessary to link a sample that may be useful in the future. The width of the finished product should be at least 25 cm, that is, about 30 cells or 60 loops plus 1 air loop. The length of the finished product should be 1.5 times greater than the width, about 45-50 cells.
It is important to know that the number of air loops and the number of columns does not coincide with the number of cells, but the number of rows corresponds to the number of cells in height.
