You will need
- Thick sturdy canvas in the size of the carpet
- Woolen thread of different colors
- Braid around the perimeter of the carpet
- The Hoop
- Needles with a blunt end and large eye
- Paper and pencil
Instruction
1
Take a break from the canvas is a square or rectangle the size of a little more of the future carpet.
2
On paper make a drawing of the future carpet, and calculate the circuit. Indicate on the diagram the colors. Note that at the edge of the Mat is a border – wide band with ornaments. Calculate the scheme of the ornament.
3
If you are going to use the Hoop, to the edge of the carpet from which you are starting, baste the pieces of canvas. Mark the canvas. Stepping back a bit from the edge, draw a line. Draw or keen on colour string to the contours of the curb.
4
Start to embroider from the background of the Central part, then go to the elements of the main figure. Embroider Mat procrastina. Secure the thread at the end of the intended number, swipe it from right to left in a straight line without stitches. Do polylectic, making stitches from the bottom left corner of each square of the canvas to the upper right. If you embroider a large rug and want to make it look old, instead of the usual procrastina use a scythe from tapestry stitch or "Renaissance". For fillet weld head outline. This stitch is similar to polylectic, but vertical it goes through the two horizontal threads of the canvas, and the horizontal line through one. Seam "Renaissance" is performed by a double outline. Spend a working thread horizontally between adjacent pairs of vertical threads of the canvas. Make a vertical stitch from the bottom up so that the thread laid remains underneath. Embroider until the end of the series. Embroider the next row in the same direction, paving the thread on the reverse side.
5
Embroider with a contrasting color in the same stitch as the pattern. If the picture itself is a contrast, the contours are not labeled.
6
Follow the curb. Embroider it first on the short side in the transverse direction, then do the long side, then the second shortest and second longest. Complete the pattern corners.
7
Hem the carpet and close the seam line on the wrong side of the wide braid. The edges to make fringe – for example, linking it with the hook.
Note
Carpet embroidery can be performed on the Hoop, and without them.
Instead of canvas, you can take the burlap. But in this case the threads must be especially thick.
For the basics you can also use any other thick fabric. But in this case you will need more simple or double outline.
When the embroidery is evenly pull on the thread. For the scheme it is better to take the graph paper.

Useful advice
A large carpet roll to roll. To the coil in several places secure the cargo. This is to ensure that the fabric during operation is not misaligned.
Choose a needle, which thickness corresponds to the thread. Thread is better to take one thickness. It may be the remains of knitwear.
In principle, the thread can be anything - wool, silk, cotton But they must be woven and exactly fill the box.
The Hoop is better to take larger. Very convenient rectangular hoops.
