Pattern 43 belongs to the category openwork knitting patterns. At first glance, the pattern seems quite complex, but if you study the diagram more closely, everything is quite simple! The pattern is knitted on the basis of a bouclé pattern or regular folds, and the unusual openwork is achieved due to the lowered loops of the purl stitch (highlighted in green in the diagram).
The openwork bouclé pattern is suitable for knitting women's and children's clothing, as well as accessories.
openwork bouclé pattern diagram
Description of the pattern of openwork bouclé pattern Pattern report 12 loops, knit 1 time in height from 1st to 41st rows, and then repeat from 19th to 41st rows. The diagram shows only the front rows; in the purl rows, knit according to the pattern. Where there were knit stitches, knit purl crossed stitches in the purl rows.
To form folds: in the 17th, 29th and 41st rows of the pattern, the loops highlighted in lilac must be knitted together with the loops raised from the 5th, 17th and 29th row (highlighted in pink) according to the pattern. To do this, from the wrong side of the product, the selected loops are lifted onto an additional knitting needle, forming a fold on the front side, and the loops are knitted together from the main and additional knitting needles.
By knitting the required number of rows, according to the pattern, you will get a raised bouclé pattern, with folds placed in a checkerboard pattern. In the last row of the resulting pattern, before closing the loops, lower all the purl loops, which are highlighted in green in the diagram, from the knitting needle and unravel to the last row.
Today we will learn how to knit a simple and beautiful Boucle pattern using knitting needles: a diagram, detailed photos and videos will help us understand the intricacies of creating such a pattern.
Knitting a boucle pattern with knitting needles: a diagram with a description of the work for beginners
Knitting such a pattern with knitting needles will not be difficult even for beginners. Below is a detailed diagram, following which you can quickly and easily learn how to create great things using the bouclé pattern. This pattern is also called cones, doodles or rose hips. It has a convex openwork shape. Looks great as a solid pattern or as decorative inserts. This pattern is used to create sweaters, scarves, jackets, hats, blankets, and is often used to create children's items.
Today we will link an example. To do this, you need to cast on a number of loops that are a multiple of 2. Pattern repeat – 4 rows. Edge loops are not taken into account in the diagram. We won’t talk about them further, but don’t forget about them. The first edge loop is always removed, the last one is knitted according to the pattern.
Bouclé is knitted in stockinette stitch, but with additives to create tubercles. To do this, we will need to make five from one loop. Now we will learn all the intricacies of creating this beautiful pattern.
The tubercle is knitted in a purl row. Clearly repeating the description, it is very simple to make; to do this, you need to knit 5 loops in one loop:
- knit 1 stitch, do not remove it from the knitting needle;
- Yarn over without removing the knitted loop from the left knitting needle;
- knit 1 knit;
- yarn over;
- 1 more knit stitch;
- return the 5 created loops to the left knitting needle;
- We knit all 5 loops together purlwise.
Once we have learned how to knit the main element of the pattern, we can start working. We will need knitting needles and yarn. The color, thickness and composition of the yarn does not matter. It all depends on your desire. We select the knitting needles according to the yarn.
We cast on an even number of loops, do not forget about the edge loops. So let's get started:
1 row. We knit all the front loops.
2nd row. In this row we begin to create tubercles. From the first loop we make 5 (as described above) - pattern, 1 purl loop, pattern, and so on until the end of the row.
3rd row. We knit all the front loops.
4 row. Repeat row 2 exactly.
Actually, our pattern is ready. Nothing complicated, you just need to practice a little.
An openwork version of the bouclé pattern.The openwork version of the pattern looks much more delicate and has a finer texture. This technique is used to create women's and children's items, hats, scarves and shawls.
We cast on a multiple of 4 loops. We always remember about edges! This option differs from the classic bouclé in the number of loops knitted through one to create a tubercle. There were 5 of them, here there are 3. The technique is similar to the classical one.
Let's start knitting our fabric:
1 row. We knit with purl loops, like all odd rows below.
2nd row. For the purl loop we knit 3 loops together, then a pattern, but not from 5 loops, but from 3.
4 row. We do the same as in row 2, but vice versa. First we knit a pattern of 3 loops, then we knit three loops together purlwise.
We knit an elastic band with a bouclé pattern.We cast on the knitting needles an even number of loops. We choose a yarn that is not very thick, otherwise it will be difficult to knit and all the beauty of the pattern will be lost.
Let's start knitting:
1 row. We knit knit and purl stitches alternately.
2nd row. In this row, the first loop should be purl, we knit it. We remove each front one with a double crochet.
3rd row. remove the loop with one more yarn over, then purl 1.
4 row. The first loop of the row is knitted, the loops with two yarn overs are knitted purl.
Pattern repeat – 4 rows.
Typically, a gradient is made up of two colors of yarn. Two-color knitting is suitable for warm winter clothes (we use thicker yarn) and for light summer clothes (we only choose brighter colors).
We cast on the knitting needles an even number of loops. Let's start knitting:
1 row. First, take a thread of a lighter shade. Alternate 1 knit stitch and 1 purl stitch.
2nd row. Take a dark thread. We knit the front one, remove the purl one with a crochet. Repeat until the end of the row.
3rd row. Dark thread. Yarn over, slip 2 stitches, 1 knit stitch. Repeat until the end of the row.
4 row. Light thread. Knit 1, 3 loops are knitted together with the wrong side, until the end of the row.
5 row. Light thread. We alternate between knitting and purling.
Rapport – 5 rows.

The pattern under the beautiful name “boucle” is perfect for blouses, dresses, and hats. Therefore, craftswomen should take it into service and master knitting according to patterns.
There are several options for knitting this pattern. As a result, you will receive a canvas based on the front surface, decorated with bumps or bumps.
A couple of tips before starting knitting:
- You will need to cast on an even number of stitches to get a symmetrical pattern.
- All cones should be the same size.
- The size of the tubercles is selected depending on the model. For children's clothes, make them smaller.
- Large bouclé looks better on hats and cardigans. Try a variety of designs to see which one is right for you.
The number of cast-on loops must be divisible by two, that is, be even.
Cast on the loops.
Knit the first row with facial loops (LP).
Turn the canvas inside out. The third row is the wrong side.
3rd row, after the edge stitch, perform purl loops (IP).
Start knitting the cones. From the third loop, knit five (1 LP, yarn over, 1 LP, yo, 1 LP).
Throw all 5 stitches back onto the left needle and knit 1 stitch out of them. Using a knitting needle, pick up all five loops by the front walls and pull out the thread.
The result is a lump like the one in the photo below.
Repeat the pattern to the end of the row. To make the bouclé come out neat and beautiful, alternate the cones with 1 IP.
In the next row, secure the pattern by knitting a row of LP.
The pattern has one feature: the knitting of the tubercles occurs in a checkerboard pattern. To follow this sequence when working with knitting needles, in the 5th row after the edge, start knitting the tubercle. After this, the pattern will continue 1 IP. Repeat the sequence until you reach the edge of the canvas. This is what 2 rows of tubercles made according to the “bouclé” pattern look like.
Then repeat the pattern from the first row. The finished bouclé looks impressive and beautiful.
Bouclé pattern diagram
Knitters are better versed in the sequence of the pattern if there is a pattern.
A few words about the symbols used in the diagram. The dash indicates IP, the circles indicate LP. A checkmark with a number above it is the tubercle and the number of loops from which it will be made. The bumps in the boucle pattern are made from a different number of loops - from 3 to 7. This will depend on the size of the bumps you want to get.

Variations of the bouclé pattern
Each craftswoman brings something of her own to the pattern. This is how many variations of each of the knitting patterns appeared. Boucle is no exception.
Openwork bouclé
An openwork version of the pattern is perfect for light summer blouses. The pattern looks very good on children's things.
1st row (and all odd ones) PI only.
2nd row: *3 stitches together, knit 3 loops from one*.
4th row:* 3 loops from one, 3p together*.
Row 5: repeat from the first row.
Always knit IP in the classic way.
In the diagram presented, the IP is indicated as a circle. The next sign is 3 IPs together. And the last icon with the number three - three loops from one.

We invite you to watch video tutorials on creating a bouclé knitting pattern. They will help deepen and consolidate the knowledge gained.
We would like to present to you a master class and a video for it, the “cone” pattern, or as it is also called “boucle”. The pattern turns out different, everything will depend on the yarn you will knit with. Fine yarn produces a bouclé pattern that can be used to knit any knitwear for spring and summer. And, if you choose thick yarn, the same pattern will already be dense, embossed, similar to cones, with which you can already knit bags, hats and other products for the winter. The video shows a pattern made from thin and thick yarn.
Video master class on knitting a boucle pattern with knitting needles:
Description of the process of knitting the cone pattern:
Rapport consists of any even number of loops in width and four rows in length.
How to knit 5 from one loop? We stick the right knitting needle into the loop on the left knitting needle, and knit it like a knitting needle, but do not throw it off, but leave it on the right knitting needle. Throw on a yarn over, hold it with your finger, once again pull out one knit stitch from the same stitch and leave them on the right knitting needle. Yarn over and pull out the last loop. Then we return all these loops (five) to the left knitting needle, and knit together with a purl loop.
At the beginning of the row and at the end of the row we always knit edge loops. We knit them loosely without tightening them!
From star to star - repeat the pattern.
- 1st row: we knit the entire row with facial loops;
- 2nd row: *purl one, from the next loop we knit five loops (three loops and 2 yarn overs), and purl together*
- 3rd row: knit stitches;
- 4th row: * from the first loop we knit 5 loops (three loops and 2 yarn overs), then we knit everything together with a purl loop, 1 purl *.
We knit the pattern in repetitions from the first to the 4th row.
We hope everything worked out for you.
Even loops for you.
We are waiting for your comments.
