You will learn how to knit a waffle pattern with your own hands from our article with detailed description diagrams and video lessons.
Learning how to create a waffle pattern with knitting needles: video tutorials for beginners
To make the proposed pattern you will need polyacrylic or acrylic and viscose yarn and a pair of knitting needles.Below is a knitting pattern for a waffle pattern for beginner needlewomen.
“-” Purl loop.
“Black square” Front loop.
“+” Edge loop.
For beginners, below is a text description of the knitting pattern for this simple pattern.
For the sample you need to cast on twenty-six loops.
Odd rows will indicate the front side of the product. The symbols should be read from right to left. The even rows will be the wrong side of our knitted fabric. Here the notation should be read from left to right.
- First row: edge loop, *then four knit stitches, one loop needs to be removed as a purl stitch, the thread is behind the work, * four facial loops and at the end the edge;
- Second row: first comes the edge loop, then all the purls and again the edge loop;
- Third row: need to knit, first row;
- Fourth row: knit as the second row;
- Fifth row: knit as the first row;
- Sixth row: the first stitch is the edge loop, * four knit stitches, one purl stitch *, again four knit stitches and an edge loop.
This pattern must be repeated from the first row to the sixth.
The steps described inside ** must be repeated.
In products, the waffle pattern is used mainly for warm children's clothing. This pattern is easy to make, the finished product is of uniform thickness, and it is easy to make decreases on it. And if you add to it some other simple patterns, for example, an openwork checkerboard or regular rows, you will get a knitted product for women and men.

Knit stitch: knit row, knit stitch, purl row, purl stitch.
Waffle pattern: the number of loops should be a multiple of sixteen + two edge loops. You need to knit according to a pattern that shows only the front rows. In the purl row, all stitches must be knitted purlwise. Between the edges you need to repeat the repeat loops from the first to the twentieth row.
Knitting density of the product: Stockinette stitch: twenty-one and a half loops and thirty rows = 10X10 centimeters.
Waffle pattern: thirty-two loops and thirty-one rows = 10X10 centimeters.

For beginners to master knitting, I give text description Schemes for making a simple waffle pattern.
For the sample we cast on 26 loops (the number should be divided by 5 plus 4 for symmetry, an additional 2 edge loops). Odd rows indicate the front side of the canvas; we read the designations from right to left. Even rows are the wrong side of the knitted fabric. We read the designations on the diagram from left to right.
- 1st row: edge loop, * 4 knit stitches, slip 1 loop as a purl, thread at work,* 4 front loops, edge loop.
- 2nd row: edge loop, purl all loops, edge loop.
- 3rd row: knit as the first row.
- 4th row: knit as the second row.
- 5th row: knit as the first row.
- 6th row: edge loop, * 4 knit stitches, 1 purl loop,* 4 knit stitches, edge loop.
Repeat the pattern from the first to the sixth rows.
The steps described inside the * * symbols (in italics) must be repeated.
To knit using a simple waffle pattern? First of all, of course, clothes for babies. It is easy to knit, the fabric is of uniform thickness, and it is easy to make decreases on such a fabric. If you combine the waffle pattern and simple patterns knitting needles for beginners (,), then perhaps you can also make a women’s product, for example a sweater, vest or skirt.
One of the most beautiful patterns In the knitting piggy bank are the so-called relief ornaments. They are not only extremely voluminous, but visually the most expressive. In this lesson we will focus on the technique of knitting the “Waffle” pattern. An ornament with this name is knitted different techniques. One of them is quite simple, and the second is more complex, based on knitting encircling loops. Both simple and more complex options The designs are embossed and are used to make clothing and accessories for the cold season. Waffles made from clasping P are a very voluminous pattern that requires a lot of yarn consumption, but at the same time it allows you to create very dense and warm things.
The elegant and spectacular “Waffle” pattern looks great in the product, and can be used both for knitting a whole fabric and for forming decorative inserts. It looks quite bulky, and at first glance may seem difficult to work with. But provided that you have mastered the implementation of encircling Ps, it will not be difficult for you to knit an item using the “Waffle” relief. Let's practice making a small sample, for which we dial the number of P, a multiple of 10, for example, 30 units, and start handicraft:
- In the 1st, 3rd and 5th rows (P) rapport is performed: * 3 front loops (LP), 2 purl loops (IP) *, finish the row with 3 IP.
- In rows such as 2, 4, 6, 9, 10, 12. 15, 16, 18 it is necessary to knit P according to the pattern.
- In the seventh P we follow the order of work: edge P * 8 P double wrapping. To do this, we will place the right knitting needle behind the 8th loop, pull the yarn towards us, and knit it with a rib stitch. The resulting P needs to be pulled out and transferred to the right knitting needle with 8 clasped stitches. Then, with the left knitting needle, we hook the newly formed P in front of the fabric and put it on the 8 loops that are clasped. After this, add 1 IP from the broach, 2 IP, 1 addition *, and grab 8 P.
- Eighth row * 3 IP, 2 IP, 3 IP, 4 IP *, 3 IP, 2 IP, 3 IP.
- In the eleventh R, rapport is performed * 3 LP, 2 IP, 3 IP, 4 LP *, then followed by 3 LP, 2 IP, 3 LP.
- The thirteenth R consists of 3 LP * 1 P added, 2 IP, 1 increase, 8 P clasped (similar to the 7th R) *, 2 IP, 3 LP.
- In the fourteenth R we knit 3 IP, 2 LP*3 IP, 2 LP, 3 IP, 4 LP*3 IP.
- The last 17 R consists of 3 LP*2 together PI (2 times), 3 LP, 2 PI, 3 LP*2 PI, 3 LP.
- Starting from 19 R it is necessary to knit, repeating the pattern from the 7th row.

Simple knitted waffle pattern
The second option is also called the Waffle pattern, but it looks completely different and is quite simple to implement. Despite its simplicity, a simple pattern looks very impressive.
A cell with an arrow indicates 1 P, which is removed as an IP, placing the thread at the back of the fabric. Based on the pattern, knitting is performed in the following sequence:
- After the edging, *4 LPs are performed, remove 1 P, 4 LPs, edging.
- The second R is performed using IP.
- The third R is performed like the first.
- The fourth P is the same as the second.
- The fifth R completely repeats the first.
- In the sixth P after the edge P * 4 LP, 1 IP * 4 LP.
After this, the ornament is repeated from the first to the sixth rows. Using simple waffle pattern knitting, you can make things for the youngest children. The canvas is formed extremely easily and is uniform. It is very easy to decrease stitches on this pattern. To link women's item, you need to make a combined pattern, which will include a simple waffle pattern and a checkerboard pattern. This combination will allow you to knit clothes such as a sweater or a winter skirt.
